Yogurt power.
These female-targeted yogurt ads are truly ridiculous. And really though, who DOES serve yogurt at their wedding? These bullshit ads belong in the same category as the commercials about the disgusting powder that you add to water to make it “exciting”, and apparently is as thrilling as buying “sexy, new underwear.” I’d make a nose-dive for the remote every time they came on to avoid having my young daughter grow up believing that all you need to do to feel empowered is sprinkle some pink-coloured aspartame into your bottled water. So much hate.

SO freaking true

And lastly, this is from our shoot in the park the other day which will be on the cover of the May 15th issue. Not me - but the mod of course whoi just happened to be my high school buddy Laura who is drop dead gorgeous. This shot is SO senior pic. Tee-hee.
Reminiscent of the shots in Seventeen’s School Zone features circa the mid-nineties. Please tell me I’m not the only one who remembers those…

I do remember those pics - they were shot with a bunch of students from Hillsboro High School in Nashville.

Whenever Sam Simpkins (the staff photographer) and I work on a photoshoot for the magazine, he usually needs a “stand in” to pose where the model will pose so he can check the light. I was under the assumption that he usually just erases those photos in the editing process, but today I discovered a whole treasure trove of them in a file marked “Stand In” on his desktop. Here are a few of the better ones. Trust me, there were plenty of plain awful ones.

This is one from the day we shot Kenny for the cover of our Spring Break issue. I was hiding behind him holding his shirt taut. Tee-hee.

It sucks to get dumped but after the requisite two-week depression you go meet your friends and realize, “Holy shit, there are a lot of fucking hot fish in the sea.” (Via Vice)

We love Ad-Rock as much as the next girl but getting his fart’s autograph goes way past simple ass-kissing and starts to get scatological.

Now here’s a great look that just can’t go wrong and is totally the NOW thing for 2008: Head-to-toe American Apparel. Hubba hubba! (Dov, that’ll be $10,000 made out to Vice Publishing, thanks.)

Hey kid, did you find out about “nu-rave fashion” via one-legged carrier pigeon? Not only did it suck in the first place, but the only person who’s still into it is your “cool” aunt who’s so proud of listening to M.I.A. (Via Vice)

I borrowed a soft box from a friend. Professional equipment makes such a difference.

My goodness how fast they are growing up! Little Griffin is adorable and Ford simply looks omnipotent. :) They are just beautiful Jocelyn. XO
