I agree, there's a slight autumnal colouring, but I do like it, it says a sort of muted tropical vibe to me. Vogue is generally quite bad when it comes to such close up head shots (just look at what they did to Gwyneth last time...) but this is nice. I'm not blown away... but nice.
I agree with everyone else, but I don't actually mind it, I think Rachel has such an endearing beauty and she has disappointed one bit with this appearance and I'm grateful that the cover isn't in the typical nature of McLellan's work.

I do agree that this does not feel very July, however, i simply love the fact she appears to have minimal to no make-up. The whole styling feels a bit too casual for The Vogue cover, and the background clashes with the font though. It will be noticeable at the newsstands i believe, we did see worse covers from them.

I had to look up to see what she is promoting, didn't realise she is in the new bourne and the upcoming oz film. Rachel is a classic beauty, she looks gorgeous. Love the feel of the colours, although yes, very fallish. It's a pretty safe picture but all in all it's a pretty cover.
She looks a bit weird...even bored? The hand on the shoulder is awkward, too. I'm all for an up-close, beauty shot but it needs to be much more effective than this to be a cover.
