cool do, Kenickie.
i spent hours inside barns&noble today reading magazines i couldn't afford. i almost sat on the floor, but i was just sober enough to know better.
there is this magazine, Jalouse. i recognized it because a few issues ago the did an editorial with elle. this issue had an awesome shoot by todd cole. i love him. in this latest issue he photographs a really pretty model with short hair. often with her boyfriend, which in addition to being in a language i cannot read was a big part of the reason i didn't buy it. i can't figure out her name beyond nina...
there are no good scans that i can find. only these little samples from todd's website. the second photo is too small to even really see her, but it does show todd's knack for taking pictures in the state of cali. in the B&W, the collar gives away she's sporting some louis vuitton rtw. she reminds me of jane birkin.
also there was this magazine called Bullett. it is full of cool stuff. not really girl-y in the sense i want, more truly targeted to girls than emitting the vibe, which threw off the overall aesthetic for me. still, i about read it cover to cover.
it has a shoot with die antwoord...
and a shoot of alice glass. accompanied with this strange interview-esque text. apparently they turned down
True Blood wanting to play one of their songs in an episode. she wears mercura nyc, the coolest of cool...
no nyc shades in this one, but my favorite pic of the shoot. again can't find quality scans. just little samples.
it has an interview with claire. it's where that awesome photo of her smoking comes from. grimes interviews like an 8th grade punk. it's cute as fuck.
it has an interview with todd solondz commenting all of his films except
Fear, Anxiety & Depression and
Life During Wartime. he embarrasses easy about his past work. but if he wasn't insecure we wouldn't have beauties like
Happiness and
Welcome to the Dollhouse. i didn't read what he had to say about
Dark Horse--no spoilers. he talks about liking there being a red censor box covering the fucking in the fuck scene in the american release of
Story Telling because it adds another layer of commentary he didn't even have to write. the copy i saw didn't have any red box. also apparently the the american dvd release of
Pretty Baby is cut by zooming in, but it wasn't on netflix instant. guess that's one up to the shitty, weird releases that netflix rents.
it has an interview with Purity Ring, but they are not physically beautiful people. still cool to hear their comments on pop or whatever it was about.
it has a section of art chosen and commented on by scarlett johansson and whoever she is dating. the only thing cool was a photo of some girl scarlett said gave her a "street boner." not gonna try to find it online.
it has a short interview and shoot with this actress. named dreama walker--apparently her parents took way too much acid. and, maybe in result, she is freakishly beautiful. the interview was about a movie she did called
Compliance. it sounds like shit. i cannot find a photo of her from the magazine. they look so much better than her red carpet pics that google turns up. none the less, pretty, weird looking girl.
another magazine called Collections has this article about the recent role of video in high-fashion ad campaigns. which we have taken note of in this thread. apparently sofia coppola recently directed one. but i am yet into look into that.
the issue they had of Treats features a shoot by this photographer that used a bunch of old valentino dresses in this really gothic tone. it was silly, stupid fun. paolo roversi inspired for sure. but trash.
i had to actually buy two magazines. because they were not expensive and i wanted them. i haven't read those. they have good stuff in them too that i can't wait to share. there are also a plethora of photos from the latest Lula that i am excited to show you all. so much!
but yes, i love getting lost in this thread, and i usually spend the most time on my responses here for this thread. hydro was right. this thread's got content.
