As promised...
Well, maybe... (Source: Ben Watts' twitter)
^Welcome FairyTales - and thanks! Hope to see more of you here... Yes, I guess she does look a little sad in a couple of those pictures but not all of them - either way, I shouldn't be entertaining or encouraging any cod-psychology about such things. <_< From last night's Pharmacy party in New York, via MilkMade (and a couple of agency previews from BFA):

^Seems perfectly reasonable to me. I fully endorse it... Some more of such things, via Gossip Girls:
Sure, post all the Japanese Gravure Idols that you have here. I need to be educated, and I am sure that it'll interest many others :-) ^I really need to get around to doing this properly, but for now I just received the latest batch of Gravure starring the lovely Risa Yoshiki (one of my very favourite Japanese idols) and thought I'd post one of the sets here. This is typical Gravure, 'cheesecake' shots in a variety of outfits (normally 4 or 5 sets per photo-book). Gravure Idols are often also models/actress/singers/whatever or a combination/all of these - Risa has released a few songs on the side, but they're not for me!
^I suppose where you and I differ then is what we want from a film. I mean, for this example in particular the clue is in the title - it's called Saving Private Ryan, not A Painstakingly Realistic Depiction Of The Normandy Invasion. I thought the premise was built on the improbable: in that they were rescuing the last surviving 'Ryan' as some sort of totem. There have been plenty of films in the past that purport (or at least create the illusion) to be "true" and are almost insultingly inaccurate (U-571 springs to mind) so that I think a film like SPR is appreciated in its attempts to create a realistic backdrop to what is a fictional drama and all that that entails (such as the aforementioned "hokey" dialogue to evoke empathy).
^And NYFW shows! Tanya Taylor and Kimberly Ovitz, via Style.com:

Some actual modelling! Even higher-quality (from #6293), plus two more, from the new Valentine's section of Rosie's 'Autograph' range and via the retailer M&S's site:
