UK Vogue & Glamour - The December Issues

The new Vogue cover got me excited as soon as I opened it up fresh from the letterbox. The cover is beautiful! I love the Lara Stone/Mario Testino shoot. I'm yet to read the article but I'm looking forward to it.

There is also a feature which I adore and it fits in with this blog so well. It's called 'Vogue's 30 Ultimate Fashion Adventures'...

Some of my favourites include:

Be the inspiration for a dress...
Wear a Tiara
Own a Chanel handbag
Wear head-to-toe Gareth Pugh when meeting your boyfriends parents
Walk barefoot across Venice's Piazza San Marco at midnight with a full-skirted silk Prada dress billowing around you
Revel in the drama of a Dior Couture show in Paris
Gallop away in a Balenciaga riding hat

Okay, I had to stop myself there... they are so dead on and dreamy...

Of course I had to throw in the essential Ed Westwick posing sesh!

The Gossip Girl cast are truly unstoppable. Gracing the cover of Glamour is my favourite starlet Leighton Meester. I love the Bardot hair they gave her for the feature with the cute 60's dresses - They really suit her. I feel that 'Blair's' style isn't quite so inspiring at the minute, not as much as in previous seasons, so this was refreshing...

I'm also in love with the 'Put a Spin on Cosy' story. The colours and the soft knits are making me crave cute winter-wear and I will be definitely pulling my grey wooly tights back out.

Images are all my own, so please credit my blog if you use them. Thanks! :)

All welcome Alexis

Alexis Mabille is still new on the Paris couture scene. His recent collection for Fall '09 isn't what I would usually go to couture for - I'm all about the drama - but the pretty colour pallete and floaty fabrics are still oh so dreamy. I'm having a major crush on pastel blue lately, which is probably working in his favour for me.
