Cover Day

First and foremost, sorry for being absent so long. After finals all I wanted were well deserved vacations which I've been enjoying, but I'm back and better then ever! (or so I want to say). Also Happy New Year... hope this year is great for all of you! Of course I had to start the new year and month with cover day. Lets enjoy!

Cosmopolitan

Ashley Greene looks so sexy but elegant at the same time, that is he reason why I liked this cover so much. This one is the American edition.

W Magazine

This cover is amazing in my opinion, very dark and expressive. Emma looks daring and ready to take the world which I love. W did an amazing job on this one!



Elle

Natalie Portman graces the cover of Elle Canada and she looks great. This cover represents the new year perfectly, bright yellow dress, pinkish make, and fabulous hair. A score for Canada, no doubt.

Model Liu Wen looks breathtaking of the China edition. Love the bare eye-make up, it makes the bold red lips the main focus which I love!

I really don't know whether to hate it or love it, but I'm leaning for hating it. When I read that Coco Rocha was doing Italian Elle for February I was trilled, but then I saw this... Usually Italian issues don't disappoint me but this one definitely did.

Model Erin Wasson took Elle Spain and klet me tell you... It's hands down the best Elle of the month!! Love the black on white photo and the lettering is perefect too. I'm really pleased to look at a different type of cover and love it. We need to see more of this, right?

Vogue

Another Natalie Portman cover for the same month maybe it's because of her new role, can't wait to see Black Swan! She must be happier with this one though. Surprisingly  I love this American edition, when I got it in the mail I was extremely happy to see a grown, poised, elegant Natalie. She is wering a silk chiffon J. Mendel dress.

Keira Knightley covers the UK edition and let me tell you I like the make-up and that's pretty much all I like. I hate  the dress, the hair, and the huge necklace. Not a good one this month.

Padma Lakshmi looks fabulous on the Indian issue, this on is their annual shape issue. The reason I like this cover is essence of it, does it make sense? I'll explain, it shows her vulnerable and beautiful, which combined they make a great cover.

Vogue Australia nailed it with this cover! The moment I saw it, it became one of my favorite covers of all times, I truly believe that is going to be really hard to top this one off. Miranda Karr look lovely and she doesn't even need to show a full smile to look happy and show that amazing glow that we can perceive. Miranda is the first pregnant woman to grace the Australian cover.

Sasha Pivovarova stars on the Portuguese cover, the one on the left. While Karolina Kurkova takes the Spanish issue, love the earthy make-up on Karolina.

Two more must seen are the China and Nippon covers, we have Gisele Bundchen look oh so fabulous on the right and on the left we have Li Bing Bing looking more powerful than ever.

Marie Claire

Amy Adams looks amazing in that cutout dress, I'm thinking of dying my hair that shade since my shade isn't that far from it. Maybe it's because I love how the hair was styled for this cover. Crazy thoughts!

Laura Blokhina cover the Italian issue looking great! I like how all the text was left to the one side only.

Danni Minogue for the UK issue in a Victoria Beckham dress.

Harper's Bazaar

Beautiful Emily Blunt cover the UK issue, I always like Harper's Bazaar covers because of the approach they use for their cover. Always different... Great cover right?

Another different cover but beautiful. Karisma Kapur graces the Indian cover. I love when they do full body shots, it lets you take the whole thing in.

 

Another gorgeous cover. Lily Donaldson looks amazing in the US cover, the editors did take to the next level and I love it! By the way this is the subscribers cover, I normally show the sub cover from Harper's Bazaar because they're much better!

Hilary Rhoda for the Russia issue, not a sub cover but a great one too. Amazing photo!

Cover Day!!

Now that September is here I get to share all of the September covers. I have my favourites, some I fairly like, and some others that I think could be way better. So here they are... Since this is one of the most important editions of the year, I had to post more than one cover.

The Vogue Selection

The best September Vogue covers, hands down!! The one on the left is the Russian cover with Natalia Vodianova, and it's stunning... Out of all of them, this one is my favourite. Natalia looks gorgeous and the cover itself is bestseller. From the background to the colors in it, the cover it's just great great. The cover on the right is the German issue, with Constance Jablonski  rocking it. It's a different kind of cover, but in a good way. Jablonski looks like she's having fun but at the same time she looks confident, amazing, and fashion forward.

French, Marion Cotillard

I also like the Brazilian issue, Alessandra looks really classy and elegant. The Japanese cover looks really brilliant and perfect for the fall season. I think the what Australian it's the best one they had in a long time. I'm not a fan of the American, Spanish, and British. I was expecting more from the American cover, for me it looks like a spring cover with another celebrity. The Spanish isn't so bad, I just don't like how the dress blends in with the background. And for the British one, well don't get me wrong I love Kate but I would of liked to see a fresh face, I do like the concept of the cover and what she's wearing. But I have to insist, we need some one else! As for the French one, well it looks really "french", classical beauty and kind of dark. Did you noticed Cotillard is wearing the brow-less look? Looks good right..

Marie Claire

Mary-Kate Olsen looks amazing, I think that this is how a fall cover should look like. Even though I like full body shots better, this one really makes me happy when I see it. The contents of the magazine are also great! The other cover I liked was the Spanish one, with Lyoka.

The Bazaar

Hate Jennifer Aniston's cover, I think that the pictures of her pictorial are way better. Any of those pictures could of made a perfect cover shot. The second one is the UK issue, with Gisele Bundchen looking as  gorgeous as ever! The last one is the Singapore cover and it's an eye-candy, that lace and animal print combination looks great.

Glamorous

I have never been a big fan of having celebrities as cover starts, but I have to admit that Jennifer Lopez did pull it off. She looks fierce and ready to take the world. A great cover and edition, her photo shoot and interview have to be seen.

For the Russian cover we have Anya Kazakova, Vlada Roslyakova, and Daria Zhemkova. All looking amazing for such an important issue.

Ella Girl

Elle's American issue it's my least favourite, the dress doesn't help Julia and it looks like something isn't right. On the other hand the Canadian cover is amazing! Love the way Daria looks sexy but innocent at the same time.

By the way.. Wouldn't it be nice to see a fashion designer on one of the cover? I think it would be a nice and awesome thing to do. After all we wouldn't have fashion without them. One last thing for cover day, would you guys want to see the month's actual issue or the next month's one?
