the independent state of daria

well, what can i say? this 2009 has been very rich from the viewpoint of press works and this very beautiful – very darish cover confirms it. i can see a moss aura on it, it reminds me a bit of the ‘independent state of kate’ or what that cover was named… and yeah, this [...]

longchamp vs. longcamp

finally a sign of life on the fw09 ads side! i was wondering if our girl had been a bit too lazy recently!! :p
me, i didn’t even know a brand called ‘longchamp’ existed, but better than nothing! and in general i like her working along with kate moss cos there’s always a genuine erotic vibe [...]

turning exotic into dariotic

this breathtaking shot is an unexpected appendix posted today by ladyflash.  i still don’t have time to post properly. just 2 things. 1) this editorial is a proof of how more subtle and refined patrick demarchelier is than ‘hammerio’ testino. could you imagine what messy kitsch editorial would testino have shot? 2) did stylist and [...]

lady gala

and when i was about to put down the usual comment on boredaria so evidently hating being there in any pore of hers, i was pleased to see these pictures that show our girl at the best of her natural attitude. go daria, you know we like you this way!
**
so i can’t really understand those [...]

even cowgirls get the blues

definitely a nice picture (provided by sex alien friend), better than the other one. daria is so naturally elegant and cool that she saves the pic from being hot and tacky. too bad that photoshop makes her nose more zig zag that it actually is. sometimes a natural patato will be much more tasting! so [...]

h&m vid: meta-fun & meta-irony

too bad it’s not daria’s voice!
**
THE DAY AFTER. i still don’t understand where this vid came from and if it’s the official summer 09 commercial. anyways, “horrible” is the word i have heard the most, but personally i find it so silly that eventually i had fun watching it. maybe mine [...]

clueless

bah, maybe it’s me clueless about heterosexual charme, but what kind of pic is that meant to be?! i can’t see any sexual appeal in her face in this pic. she looks like she’s waiting for instructions. like ‘ok, i put my hand in my hair as i’ve learnt i have to do when you [...]

v59 preview

bah, we don’t reach the level of horror of v41, but how to say it? testino strikes back… what a perfect combination of tasteless sexism: testino, the man who doesnt have access to feminime erotism, and v, the magazine always trying to look hypertrendy… and daria’s isn’t even the worst pic. in the preview at [...]

new (?) h&m

mah… blah… i’m rather perplexe… it looks like a vogue paris editorial shot by inez & vinoodh… i have seen this kind of poses and this setting so many times… i was really expecting something different. to use a word often abused by fashionistas, that’s really boring and uninspired. it looks like it’s going to [...]

homofetish for homominds

do you remember that rather ugly numero nippon august 2007 cover where daria’s expression was so wrong? well, as it often happens, it looks like they picked the worst picture comparing the cover with the outtakes taken from dusan reljin’s portfolio at managementsartists.com:
i’d say these pics look much more darish and less photoshopped than the cover. there’s [...]

body of evidence

just one word: so darish…
again everything is so right, so right this year… well, everything but a few cavalli pics… but it’s like in this early 2009 i have seen sometihng consistent in editorials, covers and advertisments, despite variatons of styling and gender playing. maybe it’s just that her body languge has become so mature and [...]

uptown androgyny

a new editorial coming from japan… i don’t want even tell you who shot it… let’s see if you guess the right name with no need to tell you… but this time it’s definitely not inez & dejà-voodh… so what’s happening this year?! why suddenly does every editorial look so right? why is every editorial [...]

lancome pictures

i know, i know, i still have to comment properly about the vogue paris editorial. i’ll do it as soon as i have some free time, which hasn’t happened yet in the latest week. btw, i bought the issue. i’ll be able to scan when i recover the mag. i left it somewhere else when [...]

isabalmain-marant?

who’s this prince charming in heels?

a few new things to fill daria’s modeling universe today.
first, we got this new unexpected campaign: balmain. unfortunately at the moment the only available image is still very small. yet, rather revealing. i bet it’s inez & vinoodh again… or not? i even wonder if the pic was shot [...]

marant gallery

that looks like the complete series of isabel marant s/s 09 campaign, shot (again) by inez & vinoodh and styled by emmanuelle alt. as someone said at tfs, the paris mafia is back! i hope that alt will take care of daria in some forthcoming issue of vogue paris too (especially after seeing the so booooring [...]
