I went into the local store to see what selection of February issues they had to offer for some extra weekend reading, and I was wanting to purchase a copy of this issue, for the cover alone - again. The other side of my mind won over the side telling me to have two copies, though. My subscription arrived before the weekend and I like the subscribers cover a lot more than I did from the image here.
How does everyone else find the issue? I think Keira's pictures are on the tedious side (except for the shots where she's wearing Chanel, of course). Leith Clark's styling is very mumsy and most of the shots look unflattering. The Michael Kors shot is horrendous, I wouldn't of had a problem slashing that particular shot from the spread. The collections editorial by Tom Allen is nice, love most of the shots, I think the Ralph Lauren shot is wonderful and I also like the movement in the Prada one. The same expression from Julia, page after page doesn't propel the images enough for me. She's lucky she's a natural beauty, resembling a mannequin and just letting the clothes take centre stage.
