gucci spring/summer 2010

Alright, so here is the Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign for Gucci. The setting and colour scheme of this shoot reminds me of a hot summer day by the pool in Miami. This wonderfully shot campaign stars Russian model Natasha Poly, and some very hot male model named Ryan Kennedy. I can't say I've ever heard of him before, but after seeing these photos, he is definitely on my radar! He reminds me of a really hot version of Kourtney Kardashians babydaddy, Scott Disick. Not only do I think the models representing Gucci for this campaign are extremely gorgeous, I am loving the items they are modeling. I LOVE the shoes Natasha has on in picture #2, and I love the dress and bag in picture #5. I also find the sunglasses she has on in picture #9 to die for! These photos were shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.

natasha poly...in one word!

natasha poly for vogue russia january 2010

This is the beautiful cover of Vogue Russia for January 2010 featuring Russian model, Natasha Poly. Russia is known for producing some very gorgeous girls, but Natasha Poly is one of my favorites right now. I love everything about this cover. From the color scheme, to her hair, and the transparency of the 'VOGUE' font. I love how her makeup is so minimal, which showcases her natural beauty. She looks so angelic!

I love how the international versions of Vogue (Paris, Italy, Russia, ect.) are all so much better than the US version. The US version mostly uses celebrities as their cover models, whereas the international versions generally use prettier models (in my opinion) and also have a more artistic feel to them. Although I can't read Russian, I would love to get myself this particular magazine. As I've already mused, everything about this cover draws me in, and I would love to have it blown up, framed, and put on my wall!
