^I bought it today, I haven't read it yet.

the editorials aren't very good... I love Jalouse but they should seriously stop with the IT-girls !

Yeah, I guess that's my main problem, it's not only cliquey but very redundant (they just have this hipster girl gang that they keep recycling : Valentine Fillol-Cordier, I don't know we've seen her maybe 3/4 times in Jalouse,the 'putafranges',the whole socialite clique and the teen actresses).It always seems to me that,instead of finding inspiring/interesting personalities, they stick to who they know or act like trend-followers and they seem SO obsessed with US/UK hipsters.The last issue was possibly one of the rare times where they actually focused on French actresses.

I'm guessing we won't have to wait that long to get a 'gossip girl' cover.

 

[[Piece Of Me]]

Peaches Love her editorial. I know many people don't like her, but there is just something about her that I love. And I don't even know what it is exactly. She's just so cool. Love Alexa's ed too.

* the title just says so long, as if poor Peaches were a martyr. kiss my a**, seriously ! *

a total of 140p. for only 3€ and something to read in the car from home to barcelona ... before it ends on the shelves under dust ...


it's the same old stuff than before ...
jalouse is in the teen hypster vein forever, now.
even I. Peyrut's voice is absolutely suffocating in this piece of trash ...

i feel like jalouse is trying to be the magazine of a generation, like 20 ans was in the 90s ... i think it's working ... it's not my cup of tea as a fashion magazine. but jalouse has made a 180 turn ... it's no longer a fashion magazine. we all know about that !

BUT their talents choice is always a nice stuff to read !

I'm so happy Alexa got the cover, but I wish they hadn't lumped her together with Peaches Geldof, Alice Dellal and Jade Jagger's kids Anyway, here's her editorial (bar two images that I'm sure will turn up later).

Photographer: Thomas Giddings
Stylist: Sebastien Cambos
Model: Alexa Chung
