When I saw the wonderful big necklaces from Lanvin in an editorial from the March 2008 issue of Vogue i just had to share some of the pictures here at GLAM & TONIC. Doesn't Sasha look great by the way? I love the whole look of this editorial. Photographed by Craig McDean. Models: Sasha Pivovarova and Gemma Ward.

New York, New York...

I guess I'm not the only one who has a distant dream of living in New York City one day, right? The strange thing is I've actually never been in NY (or well, once. But that doesn't count considering the fact that I was a child and don't remember much). Why not Paris? Milan? Warsaw? Copenhagen? Stockholm? Berlin? Reykjavik?... places I've actually been to. I'm not saying these cities doesn't have their charm, but there's just something about New York. I guess those of you who actually live there are a bit tired of hearing about this, no? But maybe the fact that I've never experienced New York is the reason why I wish I lived there. I have this illusion of a fashionable city where you have access to about anything. Impulses from all sorts of different cultures. Sushi for breakfast, cute minidresses, fantastic heels. Fancy nightclubs and fantastic skylines. Interesting people. Fashionable events. Cool art galleries. Sigh. Speaking of New York, in the January issue of VOGUE UK they had an editorial with Lily Cole in urban New York settings. It's photographed by Arthur Elgort and is naturally called "New York Doll". Lily Cole's isn't exactly my favourite model, but her porcelain doll like appearance was fantastic for this shoot.

VOGUE: The Chronicles of Kiera

I just love the editorial "The Chronicles of Kiera" photographed by Arthur Elgort. The complete story appeared in the June 2007 issue of Vogue. I'm not a big fan of Kiera -but in this editorial she looks fantastic. There's something about the atmosphere that's so sweet and right now I wish I could make my own little trip to Africa. I've never been there, but it must be such an amazing experience to travel there. Have any of you ever been there? I'm not exactly sure why, but this editorial makes me think of Phileas Fogg making his trip around the world in 80 days... love it! :) And the picture where she's giving milk to the baby elephant is just ADORABLE!
