I've spent the last few days catching up on September issues and tabbing things that stand out. One being the "Great Expectations" editorial in Teen Vogue. Not only does it feature those fantastical Marc Jacobs hats, but I'm also loving the look of Aleksandra Marczyk. She reminds me of another famous face, that of 80's model Michaela Bercu. Side note—How current is that sweater she is wearing? I want it.

How gorgeous is model Kelly Moreira in this Foam magazine editorial? Another two months before I can start wearing fall clothing, but I always get excited when the September issues start to roll in!

That Marc Jacobs skirt is so freaking cute! Gah!
Lucky editor Brandon Holley has definitely brought a new energy to the magazine. I'm loving the creative fashion editorials, more in depth look at their cover stars, and the "real girl" features that bridge a gap between I'm-taking-a-picture-of-myself-in-the-mirror bloggers and high fashion glossies.
Though I want to say that Kim France, the founding editor of Lucky, broke new ground when the magazine first hit the newsstands. Combined with the internet, suddenly fashion was more accessible to everyone, and not just to those living in New York.
So anyway, how pretty is this editorial from their August issue? I've only posted my favorite looks, so go buy this issue because you'll want to read the whole thing.

You can't get easier summer dressing than a shirtdress unbottoned down to there, mirrored aviators, and a leather clutch that only gets better with age.

How gorgeous is this editorial of Rodarte's Spring 2011 collection in Vogue magazine? If I thought I loved the collection before, I definitely do now.
I'm also thinking that the rich textures and colors would be perfect for a dining room as well: tooled leather, Ming Dynasty blue, creamy mint green, accents of amber and faux bois pattern.

I'm drawn to these images from the "Free Like a Bird of the Holders" editorial in Lula. They look a little Dare Wright meets a Blythe doll, no? Going to attempt a low side pony with a ribbon tie tomorrow.

Sequin maxi skirts, rustic woods, gorgeously carpeted stairs, chartreuse green, and cozy grandma style knits. Oh, and a perfectly cute couple, actors Dave Annable and Odette Yustman, doesn't hurt either.

While figuring out what I'm in the mood to wear this season, I'm also figuring out what I never seem to tire of:
This editorial has me sighing and dying as it manages to encompass all of those things. The Rochas skirt above? Making my heart go swoon, swoop and beat double time.
Dior by John Galliano dresses. Nothing more to say.
I love that this Marc Jacobs dress looks vintage, but that abbreviated hem makes it so much more wearable.
The python trench, the dip dye dress and cardigan? Prada=Perfect.
The silver & white Dior spectator heels.
Corsets are high on the list right now.
McQueen + patchwork + oversized black bows
