RUSSH September 09

I was over the moon to get my Russh early this month - LOVING the subscription I got for my birthday (thanks girls!!) as it usually hits news-stands way later in New Zealand than in Aus.

The issue is a total killer and the cover alone nocks you for six. Its the 30th issue and celebrating 5 years of Russh - I can't believe it's been that long. I have been obsessed since it first came out. I read every issue about ten times and colour code everything with post-its; pink for things to scan, green for the things to look up more about later. Every issue is devoured.

Enjoy..

"Sara Emilia... In The Sun"
Love the warmth and sensuality of these. Tousled hair, summer tan - all bathed in a perfectly golden light.

Fashion News
More Emma Cook for Topshop teasers!! I neeeeed every pair I have seen so far.

"Ali To The Max"
This editorial positively drips with strength, sex, athleticism and physicality.
The hyper-saturated colours of the background and makeup combined with the multitude of sexily futuristic textured white pieces are absolutely killer.

"Boys To Men"
The divine Ash Stymest was interviewed about the male modeling industry - you can read about it on Isaac Likes as well as Isaac's thoughts.

Photographer: Dounia Benjelloul

"Badlands"
In 1959 she watched while he self destructed..
I adore this editorial as well. Its a homage to Terence Malick's film Badlands - one of my favorite directors of all time, his Thin Red Line and The New World are in my top ten and are guaranteed to take your breath away and move you.

This editorial captures innocence, love, nostalgia and small towns all bathed in golden light - whilst also an ominous sense of danger.

I love this shot of a tattoo on tanned skin through ripped denim.
This spread has also made me want loafers even more - and to pair them with socks asap.
Also love that the now ubiquitous and awesome Louis Vuitton bunny ears make an appearance.
I will never tire of the simplicity, earthiness and many underlying references of perfectly beaten up denim and white tees. Iconically American, yet universally relatable. Classically manly yet accessible to females as well.
And how intense is that brooding shot on the left? The colours, contrast, everything capture the danger and appeal of his character.
She however glows with innocence, naivety, warmth, femininity. Her peaches and cream complexion is refreshing - and particularly radiates in that stunning Zimmerman dress.

Emma Cook For Topshop

So my heart stopped today when I saw these preview images of the new Emma Cook for Topshop boots. NOTHING is going to come between these and me. I was distraught to miss out of the first lot of them. And am constantly jealous whenever Rumi rocks hers on Fashion Toast. So this time (and now that they ship to New Zealand) I will do anything! Firstborn/kidney/student loan money.

Which are your favorites? I'm definitely partial to the dalmatian and tan pair. These WILL be mine. I hope.

Deer Emma Cook

I pretty much adore everything Emma Cook does - especially the mindblowingly patterned lace tights and dresses she did for Fall 08, and her now famous (and impossible to get) platform brothel creeper boots for TopShop. So when I heard she and TopShop had collaborated again, I knew I would love. And I do. Of the seven pieces my pick is the delicate tee (is that silk/cotton?) with a fab deer and doily print - just kitschy enough. And perfectly executed in the soft grey.

I've been obsessed with deer (and there kin of reindeers, mountain goats etc - basically anything with a sweet pair of horns and long legs) since forever. Probably because of childhood love of Bambi. So this I need!!!
