Head Over Heels In Love With… Edition VII

French Magazine
The modeling world’s “12 brightest stars” gracing French magazine’s cover
Because rainbow has never looked better. Neither has anything else, to be perfectly honest.

Affair
The font Affair (from Veer)
Because the phrase “Hello, lover!” has finally found its match. Beautiful, beautiful typography.

Penguin Penguin
Penguin Book Cover Postcards
Because um… I kind of need these. Penguin books never fails to amaze with their book cover designs.

Miu Miu Illustration
Illustrations of the Miu Miu S/S collection (by Kris Atomic)
Because I’m 310% smitten with this collection. I just can’t get enough of it! And I adore Kris Atomic’s illustrations to no ends.

Personal Library Kit
Personal Library Kit (from Knock Knock)
Because my inner bibliophile is squealing with glee.

Fantastic Mr. Fox
Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox
Because, like it’s name suggests, it truly is fantastic.
(P.S. This movie got totally snubbed at the Oscars! Sad faaace.)

Seurat - The Circus
Seurat
Because his work is so vivid, lively, and carefree. I’ve always loved him, but I seem to be on a bit of a Seurat binge lately.

Russian Nesting Dolls
Russian Nesting Dolls (by pooq_h)

Vanessa Briggs
This painting by Vanessa Briggs
Because I honestly don’t think I’ve ever been so in love with a piece of art work in my entire life. I love everything about it – the colours, the shapes, the movement.

Chloe Sevigny for Elle UK
Chloe Sevigny’s cover of Elle UK
Because a) It’s Chloe whose presence makes everything automatically awesome, b) She’s wearing that beloved Miu Miu collection, c) The doodles! Nothing beats doodles!, and d) Just… I love this cover! I rarely buy magazines, but I want to go out and purchase this one immediately!

I always love your lists, simply inspiring. I’m loving the simplicity of the Elle UK cover! It’s really interesting how’s it’s not too cluttered up in text.

And haha, t hanks to you I’m now avidly browsing through the Knock Knock site where you got the library kit. It’s such a cute site!

Aw, I’m glad! Thank you. :D

It’s such an unusual cover, isn’t it? Not one I would have expected from a magazine, let alone from Elle! It’s more like a book cover than a magazine cover. But I really appreciate the simplicity of it; it’s almost calming when you compare it to the louder more cramped covers we’re used to from magazines.

I have to block myself from that website. haha There’s so much random and cool stuff on it!

I love the Penguin book covers! Especially as the book in the box is The Great Gatsby, one of my favorites :D

I will always associate The Great Gatsby with you. :P I still haven’t gotten around to reading it, but I know when I eventually do, I will picture you when it’s talking about Daisy Buchanan. XD

Daisy’s my homegirl <3 However, if you don't like her, I won't judge – not many people do ;D

You have such awesome taste Krissy! I love, love, love this list! Chloe looks fab on the cover of Elle UK- wish they made magazine covers like that in the states! I kind of definitely need those postcards too :)

Aw, thank you Heather! I’m a list-fiend, so I’m glad others appreciate my obsessive list making. haha.

And I definitely agree! I wish more magazine covers looked like that! It’s so refreshing.

Oooh, so many pretty things! That Elle cover is so awesome… doodles make anything awesome though, hehe. And oh noes! That Knock Knock site is amazing… and I’ve only looked at the Gifts for Annoying People page, haha.

The Gifts for Annoying People page is so hilarious. They have such amusing things on that website.

And doodles totally do make anything infinitely more awesome.

Aren’t they sweet? I’ve always had a strange attraction to them, and that set is so unexpected. Like the little skeleton guy on the end – so adorable!

Those Russian nesting dolls are absolutely the cutest!
And I’m not familiar with Chloe Sevigny, but she is absolutely gorgeous in that cover!

I love that picture, the colours are mesmerising.

I WANT THOSE POST CARDS TOO! Soooo lovely! Where can I get the personal library kit? That makes me squeal with glee too.

Krissy » March 18th, 2010

Aren’t they? I don’t usually like bold colours in art work, but I’m so so in love with this one. I might have to try my hand at recreating it, that’s how much I love it!
