Anna & Karmen

A little post dedicated to Anna Jagodzinska and Karmen Pedaru , who if you haven't heard are suing Next, along with Anne Aleksandra Cywinska. Anna and Karmen are two of my favorite models and I'm really happy that they are actually taking action against their agency. This isn't the first time we've heard stories of agencies being shady, whether it be for stealing money, like in this case, or not. Obviously I can't speak for anyone and I don't have any first hand experience but it seems pretty common knowledge that many times these girls get treated like shit even though they are a huge factor in why we post the editorials we do, I mean, how many times do you post some spread and all the comments are "oh she's so pretty"(not that their is any shame in that comment because lord knows I do it all the time)? So good for Anna, Anne, and Karmen for actually doing something about it!

-If that read like a big run-on I'm sorry. I'm not in the editing sort of mood : )

One Of My Favorites

Fact 1: I have never once seen Gossip Girl
Fact 2: Leighton > Blake. I can not comprehend why Anna Wintour loves that girl so much when she is clearly less superior to Ms. Meester. Just sayin'

Winter Dreams

Ewa Witkowska and Renata Maciel in Vogue Russia Feb 1999

I want a surge of 90s-early '00s models to come back. Being born in 1992, I feel cheated sometimes like I missed out on greatness. Or maybe that is how everyone feels about past generations?

Yeah, its probably just a cyclical thing.

2 In 1

Beautiful editorial with Eline van Houten from Fault Mag, not much to say besides that I love the styling. It is that simple. Except that I feel like I've either posted this before, or it is old...except that it isn't that old and I haven't posted it. Sometimes I think these blog posts are all blending together.

And in other news, I just bought this dress from Asos. Yep, I'm petite-it makes trying to find a dress not so fun anymore, but oh Asos, they always come through.

A Few Of My Favorite Things

Short Fantasy Faux Fur Leopard Snood;Whistles Elisa Wolf Sweater

Oasis Furry Yarn Cardigan;Waterfall Suede Jacket

Chiffon Dress w/ Diamante Embellished High Neck;Rich Velvet Shorts

Curb Chain Bow Necklace;Deco Metal Fringe Drop Earrings

Raided Asos.com and here are a few of my holiday picks.
All that texture just makes me so happy. This is why winter is my favorite season. I mean, I know I'm not going to have a bad day with a huge scarf wrapped around my neck and some suede wedges. What beats that?! Not warm weather that's for sure. Or maybe that just means I'm actually meant to be in the Midwest after all...

Accessories Pt. 2

My apologies for the terrible quality and lighting but you get the idea.
This is just a look at my boot shelves/cases in my room. In the box is a pair of beige suede thigh highs in case you were wondering, and sorry for the lack of detail shots. You don't get to see much when it comes to the knee highs boots since they're either slouched or folded over. Some other time.

Also, I called my last post Accessories Pt 1, so there has to be part 2 but shoes aren't really accessories...hmm that was some bad planning on my part.
