You’ve seen it countless times in fashion magazines and ad campaigns all over the fashion/world. And this is pretty much how you can summarize it all.

The fancy poses of a fashion model don’t look so complicated and elaborated any more. (you’re looking at Lucky magazine’s Creative Andrea Linett, her own vision of a Sassy magazine spread published a long time ago). Could someone come up with a funny schematics of fashion bloggers poses? It won’t be that complicated, they’re all doing the “must-go-to-the-toilet” pose, don’t they? (iheartthreadbared via jezebel)

It’s been quite a while since we last talked Hayden Panettiere and her clothing issues. While continuing Heroes for another series is yet uncertain, Hayden keeps herself busy.

And by that I’m not looking to imply her personal life either. I’m talking about what’s fed to the public. And in her case, right now, it’s a photoshoot for Lush Magazine. With Hayden Panettiere wearing lingerie only. And striking some pretty grown-up pictures. She does so without being sticky, gross or derailed in my view. I actually think the photos turned out impeccable. Wouldn’t you say? (photos via)

As you may probably know (or not), Apple’s latest release is called the iPad. Long contested by everyone (and their respective dogs), the new iWonder is considerably user-friendly but not so carry-friendly.

Thus, imaginative people around the world gather round and discussed long and thoroughly about the possibilities of wearing your iPad (which looks pretty much like an oversized iPhone/iPod). And this is what they came up with: eight ways to wear your iPad and look cool while doing it. This may not get you on the Sartorialist, but it could surely bring a smile on your face. I hope.

Now this is eye candy in more ways than I could have imagined a wallet to ever be! Forget LV monogram stamped wallets! They’re soooo last season! Hook into the new Maison Martin Margiela Candy Wallet in shiny fuchsia and your day will certainly be brighter!

Made to look exactly like a giant candy wrapper, this Maison Martin Margiela wallet is made of polyurethane and polyester and once you open it, there’s a bright, shiny silver interior, just as candy-ish as the exterior! The only downside? Comme d’habitude, the price tag – this beautiful candy wallet costs $410. Not your ordinary candy, eh? (via)

I endlessly marvel at some photographers and stylists capacities of literally, visually transforming one’s body for an image. Alessandra Ambrosio is certainly not known for her curvy body. However, for this shot (and so many more), Victoria’s Secret commissioned army of people in charge took Alessandra’s body to a new level of appeal.

Victoria’s Secret is a successful lingerie name selling so much more than frills and lace. They’re selling dreams with a price tag. People seeing Alessandra’s photos (below, more right after the jump or simply click here for the gallery!) could buy VS undies hoping they’ll end up looking like her.

I’ve been waiting for a better quality image (an unofficial, low quality capture was already circulating for over a week now) to judge freely on May 2010 Vogue’s cover.

Sarah Jessica Parker is the star of this month’s cover. Good or bad? Good – after all, everyone loves Carrie…umm Sarah Jessica Parker. Bad – it’s a commercial move (SATC 2 is coming up soon) and a highly photoshop-altered one. Not to mention it’s Vogue, the “Bible” of fashion and it’s featuring an actress, not a professional fashion – something? (the story continues right after the jump with more images and a behind-the-scenes video!)

I thought it would be a nice way to pump up the dynamics of this day: happening around in fashion and the world (in very, very short and mostly very, very odd).

Kate Moss was supposed to have an exposition coming in Paris. Because we weren’t quite au courant with anything and everything Kate from her twenty something years in fashion, photos and ad campaigns with her face on should have been gracing the Musée des Arts Déco de Paris. The project was, however, canceled. Why would that be?

If you’re trying to make your way in the fashion industry, then you’ll know that an internship is the way to start building your success. Especially chez Vogue. Here’s the good news: you can internship your way in Anna Wintour’s offices by placing a bid. (it’s a charity auction and the bidding starts at $1,000).

Talking about auctions: Marylin Monroe’s chest X-ray from 1952 will be available for auction. Weird much?

The face-covering burqa doesn’t seem to be sanctioned by the Quran. Make way for the controversy!

Now this is something unexpected for a (fashion)magazine! Julianna Margulies covers W Magazine’s May 2010 issue and she’s looking wonderful while doing it!

Sure it would have been so beautiful seeing her without the Goes Glam title, but I’ll take the closest to perfection I can get. Looking that good, naturally, at 43 is a challenge not many famous people feel ready to take. Not to mention the usual joggling with family and career. It’s a beautiful pictorial and a relaxed interview. (you can read it here) What more to ask from a spring-ish magazine? (don’t miss the rest of the images right after the jump!)
