Robin Wright covers Harper’s Bazaar UK April 2016 issue and she looks lovely on it. If you are a fan of Netflix House of Cards series, then you will know all about Robin’s Character – Claire Underwood, the power hungry, first lady of the United States of America, and if you don’t watch House of Cards, I suggest you binge on it now, or no, binge on it after reading this post.

I admire Robin’s character in the series. She is so strong and fierce, it is captivating. I am a huge fan of the series, and I finished watching all 4 seasons, and looking forward to the 5th. One thing that captivates me about the show, apart from the intense story line, and how crazy the Underwoods are, is Claire’s amazing style. Her stylish dresses that fit like a glove, and her lovely hair cut makes me envy her. This woman is a show-stopper and she knows it.

I am loving the Ralph Lauren dress she has on the subscribers cover, and the pose is giving me life, and I see myself grabbing this issue most definitely. I can’t believe this woman will be 50 years old next month (April), she looks like a 30-year-old woman. Don’t you think?

I am also loving the main cover, I think Robin looks beautiful on this issue, the Max Mara top looks amazing, but I think I prefer the subscribers cover. The pose and the dress she has on there is everything.

What do you think of both covers? Which do you prefer?

Drop me a comment, let’s chat.

Thanks for reading.

 

Amy Adams Covers Marie Claire April 2016

The lovely American actress and singer – Amy Adams is the cover girl for Marie Claire April 2016. This magazine cover caught my eye. I love the hair and makeup, Amy looks beautiful as always, and her striking pose finishes off the look beautifully.

I have had my eye on this woman since I saw her in the Catch Me If You Can movie and she has been on my radar ever since. I find her very interesting to watch and I think she is so pretty. She does not look her age at all (Amy is 41 years old), and I admire that about her. I hope I look this stunning when I am 41 years old.

Amy Adams wears bra by Palace Costume, skirt by Max Mara, shoes by Miu Miu and earrings by Sonia Boyajian.

 

Here are some facts you may or may not know about Amy Adams:

  1. She was born in Italy.
  2. She once worked as a waitress.
  3. Meryl Streep taught her how to knit.
  4. She loves a bit of Karaoke.
  5. She is one of seven children.
  6. Her mum use to be a competitive body builder.

Apart from Amy being on the cover, the other features look promising. I am loving the sound of ‘Sleep Training for Adults’ and ‘Standout Fashion Looks for Now’.

However I won’t be getting this issue because for £3.99, I will expect to get a lot more than the topics I am seeing on this. I see Marie Claire and Elle as fashion magazines, unlike Cosmo and Glamour, that are a more of lifestyle magazines. So for a fashion magazine to have just 1 fashion topic on the cover looks a little worrying to me, but then again, maybe the editors at Marie Claire are moving towards the ‘Lifestyle’ niche. I guess more issues will tell.

What do you think of this cover?

 

Rihanna Covers British Vogue April 2016

Rihanna-Vogue-UK-April-2016-Cover

The lovely Rihanna is on the cover of British Vogue April 2016, and I am loving it. I am not surprised she is Vogue’s cover girl, as this is her second British Vogue magazine cover, and she has a lot going on in the fashion world at the moment. Her new footwear collaboration with Manolo Blahnik, and her collaboration with Puma are her latest fashion ventures, so it is fair to say we will be seeing a lot of her on magazine covers. I mean she has a lot of promoting to do this year.

In her interview with British Vogue, Rihanna talked about how she’ll react once her shoes are released:

“The day I see a woman in the street wearing my shoes… I am sorry for that woman because I’m going to literally run after her, shouting, ‘Stop! Selfie! Who are you? Where did you get them?’ I’m going to have a moment!”

I believe her, because I would react the exact same way, if I were in her shoes. I would probably be more vocal if anything, lol..

I have bought this issue just became my homegirl is on it. I admired Rihanna. She has achieved a lot in such a short period and it doesn’t look like she will be relaxing anytime soon, and that is what I admire about her. She looks a go getter and a hardworking young woman, and I love that about her. She is also a pretty face, a talented singer, and a style icon. I admired her sense of style, she can look good in anything. So it is fascinating to read about her mother being her style icon:

“Oh my goodness, my mother – she is a woman’s woman,” she said. “I was obsessed with everything she did then, everything she wore, her scent, her shoes and her scarves… That was the glamour I wanted to be part of.”

What do you think of this cover? Drop me a comment, let’s talk…

Have a lovely weekend.
