Editorial Delivery

A few editorial spreads worthy of noting...

Jessica Alba
in Genlux Magazine, Summer 2010 - wearing Chanel clogs

How AMAZING is this shoot? A mix of high-fashion a la "Welcome to the Dollhouse" creepiness.. the steel cabin vibe is a great contrast to her mauve rose-colored structured number. The knee-high stockings paired with the studded Chanel clogs adds a dash of funk to the prim, proper vibe given off by the combination of her extravagant diamond chandelier earrings, princess bouffant do', and lady-like frock.

It's one thing to see Alba in hot bikini shoots (okay, girls drool over those photo spreads just as much as the guys around the globe do), but I love seeing Alba flip the switch into high-fashion shoots. Over the years, she's left behind her play-it-safe-in-black roots, and reinvented her image by stepping into the bold, daring, high-fashion spotlight...

Of course, widely loved, Serena (Blake Lively) is known for being the down-to-earth, buxom-blond face of Gossip Girl (every girl's secret vice). But where would the show be without the over-dramatic, Queen of the Upper East Side, secretly insecure-sensitive, boldly-say-or-do-what-I-please brunette, Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester)? You and I both know, Blair Waldorf defines Gossip Girl...

Although Blair is a far-fetch from Leighton's true personality, who better to rock daring designer pieces than Leighton? Alter-ego aside, never to shy away from bold and daring designer duds, Leighton has surely earned her spot as a fashion icon..
