She may have labelled “too toothy” by Anna Wintour once, but that hasn’t stopped the Vogue editor by featuring Sienna Miller on her cover for a second time. The British actress has landed the July ’09 cover of the glossy style bible. Given some serious hair extensions, Sienna looks slick in a one-shouldered custom red silk dress by Calvin Klein. Photographed by Craig McDean, she also wears designs by Alexander Wang, Nina Ricci and Gucci.

It certainly helps to have friends in high places, as we have previously seen with Sean Avery and Vogue. Now Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s youngest daughter, Tallulah Belle Willis, has landed an internship at Harper’s Bazaar.
At only 15-years-old, Tallulah is working in the fashion department “shadowing” staff and attending resort appointments.
“We are thrilled to have her,” a Harper‘s spokesperson said.
So how did Tallulah score such a lucrative gig? Well, it seems hardly a coincidence that her mum, Demi, graced the April ’08 cover of Harper‘s. Ashton Kutcher has also written several essays for the glossy mag and the couple were spotted next to Glenda Bailey on the FROW at New York Fashion Week.
While she’s there, I wonder if Tallulah can have a quiet word to Glenda about the June ’09 issue.
Much has been made over that Harper’s Bazaar cover starring Angelina Jolie (pictured left) in the past few days. Everyone from readers to journalists to bloggers have been left unimpressed by the magazine’s decision to feature a photo agency picture of the actress on their July cover.
Indeed, even yours truly has been left rather stumped by this choice to use a Getty red carpet photo instead of the usual stylised photo-shoot image. As if that wasn’t strange enough, there isn’t even an interview with Ange inside the mag, just an essay written by Naomi Wolf about the actress. As some have put it, it’s bordering on tabloid.
It seems that Rihanna cover for Vogue is in jeopardy in the aftermath of those nude photos of her and Chris Brown that were recently leaked onto the internet.
The singing superstar was approached by Anna Wintour to star in an upcoming issue of the glossy mag. They were reportedly “thick as thieves” at the Met Costume Gala last month.
“Anna told her Vogue absolutely loves her and really wanted to work with her. Rihanna was ecstatic,” a source told Star magazine.
However, it is now believed that the editrix has retracted her offer in response to the photos that were allegedly taken by Brown, although he denies it.
“Anna hasn’t returned any of her calls. Rihanna’s so upset… She hopes the people at Vogue change their minds,” the source added.
And so their turbulent relationship has cost Rihanna again. Shame!
On the brink of her television departure from The Hills, due to air on Sunday, Lauren Conrad has admitted that she prefers a more casual look when hanging out with boyfriend, Kyle Howard.
“I feel sexiest with him when I’m in sweatpants and no makeup,” she tells the June issue of Cosmopolitan.
In addition to her sexy sweatpant style, L.C. also confessed that she was annoyed at producers for insisting that she and Heidi Montag be brought together.
Elle magazine has picked itself up and dusted itself off after Stylista was cancelled on the CW network. Instead, it will feature in MTV’s The City, after the show’s resident ice queen, Olivia Palermo, scored a job in the publicity department of the magazine. Sources say that shooting of season two is already under way, with cameras entering the Elle offices this week. I wonder, will this television venture will be more successful?
Cameron Diaz has surprised many a fashion follower by landing the June ’09 issue of Vogue. Criticisms are already flying about what the actress has done lately to warrant the highly sought after cover spot on the style bible. Regardless of this fact, Cameron sat down with the magazine to discuss the trials of shooting her latest film, My Sister’s Keeper, and her father’s sudden death last year.
“I think, emotionally … it definitely took its toll. Definitely. It’s the human experience. You know, that’s what the heart does. Things are given to us, and things are taken away. And I think the heart becomes stronger, more capable,” she said.

A very interesting discussion about the state of the modeling world today and a little insight into what it’s like to be a living, walking clothes hanger…
Admit it – you love to check out what other people are wearing, whether it be your friends or the lady next to you in the bank queue or your favourite pop star in their latest music video. Street style blogs have been creeping up in the popularity stakes for a few years now, to the point where people are making a living out of them. And the stars of these sites are of course the ones who get all the insider information (and access to all the best clothes) – the fashion journos, PRs and so on.
Carine Roitfeld and Emmanuelle Alt of Paris Vogue are style icons to countless fashionistas as are other editors and stylists and thanks to street style bloggers and fashion paparazzi their stars just keep on rising. Check out this Style.com video to see what it’s like for them to walk the gauntlet of fashion paps in order to attend the shows.
The designer photographed the Harry Potter star for French mag, Crash, which was unveiled last month. On her new friendship with Lagerfeld, she tells Interview‘s Derek Blasberg:
“I’d met Karl a few times before, at parties or something where we really couldn’t talk. But this was a dream come true. We spent the whole day together, and he can talk about anything – literature, art, science, modern culture. I was totally seduced. I felt spoiled to be spending so much time with him.”

In the lead-up to the MET Costume Institute Gala next month, Vogue has paid tribute to ‘The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion’ – this year’s gala theme. Photographed by Steven Meisel, the lucky models to land the cover include (from left to right): Liya Kebede, Natalia Vodianova, Anna Maria Jagodzinska, Isabeli Fontana, Lara Stone, Jourdan Dunn, Raquel Zimmermann, Caroline Trentini, and Natasha Poly. It also is the third consecutive American Vogue cover to feature a black woman (Michelle Obama and Beyonce were the previous two). But what really has me excited is what’s inside the issue – an editorial shoot starring this year’s gala co-chairs Kate Moss, Justin Timberlake and Marc Jacobs (but more on that later!).
Loyal Nylon subscribers, you can let go of that tight grasp you’ve got on your mags and breath a sigh of relief. Despite rumours going around the internets this week Nylon The Print Edition was about to be no more, this was apparently a story which simply got a little out of hand.
“Every single paid subscriber will continue to receive the print magazine,” said the mag’s publisher Jaclynn Jarrett. “Every initiative we do goes back to the print magazine. It’s the core of our business and it’s not going anywhere.” Do I hear a few ‘phews’ around the place?
