US Vogue February 2009 : Blake Lively by Mario Testino

The cover pic looks nothing like her at all! with all the airbrushing she finally looks pretty to me. lol. It does look good.

It's out in the UK (at least in London), I've seen it about a lot, I REALLY wanted to get it but it's more economical for me to wait till I go back to Austria (plus my Mum might cop it for me, since I just had an operation )

I really want this issue.. the first time I have been dying to pick up a copy of US VOGUE in a long time...

This is out in London? I haven't seen it up North yet...

 

[Fiercification]

Yeah I saw in near Uni in central London and then I spotted it through the window of a local Spar in South London a half hour ago, so it's definetely arrived.

 

[vogue28]

thank you for the heads up

Yep, like you, I've got my copy now.

I really enjoyed the fashion content of this issue, there was a good range of models and moods, though I found the articles were so-so, too many sycophantic profiles meant I stopped paying attention to the rest of the written features.

I noticed in the letters page that they published several in praise of Natalia Vodianova, where people wanted to see her on the cover. And showing they have some wit, a comment about Caroline Trentini being a robot, followed by a letter from someone in love with her work.

This has been the first issue, in a longggg time that I was looking forward to picking up..
'it's a madcap world' is even better in print, Natasha looks gorgeous! I love Blake's pictures and interview. Coco's shots are impressive too, love the hair colour!

It's a lovely cover, but does anyone else think her mole looks odd in these pictures?

 

[Miss Dalloway]

^^Yes, she is very much airbrushed, but i dont mind because its still a bautiful image.I liked this issue, but man US Vogue while having new faces and models, this year has been incredibly thin, all the issues so faar.
