Emanuela de Paula For Marie Claire Brazil

Brazilian model Emanuela de Paula looks uber fab as a "futuristic warrior" for Marie Claire's Brazil April 2010 cover. I must say this is a very fashion forward editorial for Marie Claire - and they scored with this one!

In this editorial shot by photographer Jacques Dequeker, Emanuela wears Giorgio Armani, Ellus and Animale.

Sessilee Lopez Harpers Bazaar June Issue

*I am out of the country and posts have been extremely sloow. I have acquired internet access -yay- so I'm back*

To the good news: I received my Harpers Bazaar in the mail mid May and was delighted to see a full 10 page spread of nothing but Sessilee!!! I thought I must get this scanned ASAP to post, alas time didn't allow. But lucky us, Sessilee herself post her own picks on her site, SESSILEE. A long with a few other day by day happenings in her fabulous life. So be sure to check her site for updates.

Great Style, Great Price indeed! Nothing in this spread was listed over $1,000 not even $800! Yet it still included Ralph Lauren, Tory Burch, Yves Saint Laurent and others but had a sophisticated mix with Gap and Banana Republic. What more can a girl - on something of a budget - ask for!

Here are my other faves!

The landscape was too luscious!

Lakshmi Menon Vogue Spread May 2009

The shoot was in Goa by photographer Mikael Jansson

Indian model Lakshmi Menon is well establishing herself among the top new comers in fashion. Aside from being one of the most recognized models from her country, Lakshmi did a spread in U.S Vogue's May 2009 issue that I instantly feel in love with. Please notice the trends of prints it isn't going anywhere, anytime soon! These same looks in the past were considered "too ethnic" and now every high end designer must have an "ethnic" look in their collection. Just food for thought: Enjoy Lakshmi!

The placement of colors in this shot above is magnificent! So rich & beautiful.
