In her spread in the May 2009 issue of Vanity Fair, Emily Blunt looks all but poised to steal all the period piece roles away from Keira Knightley.

Kanye [and a little of Amber Rose] star in the new ads for his sneaker collaboration with Louis Vuitton.

Terry Richardson shot Evan Rachel Wood for the May 2009 issue of GQ.
The sexy pin-up shoot looks like it’s straight out of a Tarantino film, and therefore the perfect job for Mr. Richardson.

Pretty straightforward — Patrick Demarchelier photographed six top models with their boyfriends: Doutzen Kroes, Chanel Iman, Arlenis Sosa, Julia Stegner, Caroline Trentini, and Anna Jagodzinska.
Cutest part: Caroline is dating the photographer’s son! And even though she’s clearly posing,
Usually lightening your hair is a youth-enhancing move, right? We’ve seen Jessica Alba looking hot with lighter locks before, but this time it’s not so pretty. I think it has more to do with the cut than the color – she just looks ways beyond her 27 years. While the
H&M regularly has ads that are a lot better than you’d think a chain retailer would have. These ads are no exception, as Daria Werbowy stars in the summery campaign for Matthew Williamson’s collaboration with H&M.

Drew Barrymore got glammed up in Alberta Ferretti for a Roaring Twenties-inspired look. Accented with a small veil and classic red lipstick, the nude, sequined gown looked perfect on Drew, and not costumey.

The May 2009 issue of Vogue is the Steven Meisel-shot “Model Issue,” and features a pull-out cover with “The Faces of the Moment.” (Is it just me, or is Natalia Vodianova having the longest moment ever?!)
It’s great, of course, to see models on a US cover (especially since not one
Expanding on Juicy’s loungewear empire that started with tracksuits, the Juicy Couture Intimate Apparel collection is basic sleepwear and underwear. Really basic. Like, boring-basic. The line is full of nightgowns, screened tees and camisoles, pajama pants, undies, and robes, in springy, girly colors.
The line is surprisingly innocuous and a lazy attempt
