^Oh no, I wouldn't want everything to change because of ME! That talk of my diva-ish behaviour on this forum is mere scurrilous rumour... Just remember I'm going to use those missing week 1 points as my excuse should I come last! And, yes, I've got rid of Mascherano. I'm still flag-waving though with Tévez. Since Portsmouth is no longer in the league I don't really have any other vested interests anymore.

Plus, found this unused photo by Daniella Midenge for that Marie Claire(S.Africa) article:

^Hmmm? My guest-list tickets must have somehow 'disappeared'... I bet I know just who did it too!!! Alas, New York is a little far away for me at such short notice. Coincidentally, I am attending a gallery opening on the very same night ( ), so maybe if I just squint, and down enough red wine, I can pretend I'm there and that it all went exactly as I predicted? Thanks for the information, sweetandlow.

^As pleased as I am to still be in touching distance of the pack - do I get any concession for missing out on the 1st weeks points? That, and already losing my captain to Barcelona (misjudged patriotism, in lieu of not really having a clue about the Premiership) makes me fear for my future in this league... Still none the wiser about this 'H2H' either?

From the Norma Kamali site. I don't know about you, but I'm kind of taken with that Princess Leia-esque hairdo!

+ Super-Dooper UHQ scans of the recent LOFT campaign... Courtesy of that titan amongst members (and best ass outside of this thread ) phenobarbie: (So big my stupid computer skills can't thumbnail them - direct link only)

^You're welcome! And, yes, I'm already missing those innovative Supreme showcards... Who is this Terry & Ali credited with her main picture anyway? I don't know the names as a duo, maybe they are photographer and stylist???

^Well now I feel all kinds of sad because he/she has never come to bother my profile. Why won't you love me blackrain? Btw, maybe it's in recognition of Ozzy Osbourne's shitty 2007 album of that same name..?

^Me neither, good point... 'Biggerer' (and, in one case, new) LOFT shots from their Facebook site:

^I hate to sound like a stuck record (but when everybody else is, I guess it's not such a bad thing!) but how is Candice going to be overshadowed?Admittedly, I'm as fed up with her as the next Bellazonian - but then we're all quasi-obsessive members who pore over these things. Maybe to most people out there she'll simply be the same hot blonde who popped out of that 2007 show and looks ridiculously fit in lingerie? Sure - Heidi, Adriana, Alessandra and Rosie shine like a fucking meteor shower, but Candice can too. Hell, she did for me first time I saw her - and far more than the above girls combined. And that's coming from a bona fide Rosie fan too (the 2007 VSFS was not her greatest year I'll grant you). Fame can quite often pale in the presence of 'hotness', and irrespective of how irrefutably incandescent some of those above may be, Candice is quite clearly at the peak of her commercial powers in the eyes of VS - and I'm sure they believe that translates to the general public (not you and I!). Her appointment with bra 'destiny' was achingly predictable, and a tad yawnsome, yes. But if it had been Rosie everybody would be crying "Transformers", and you all know how badly an Adriana Comeback Special bra would have gone down here?!! Anyway, what's the big deal with that bra in regards to the show? Hell, I hardly even remember it the last two years - and it's not given much of a hoo-hah on the night itself anymore. Last year they were far too busy fawning over the Model Search girls (wherefore art thou now?) and in 2008 the editors decided we'd rather see Edita miming to a completely different song to what was even playing than focus on the million dollars jiggling down the catwalk... So, despite all of what I've just said, Candice getting the bra makes no real difference to her 'brightness' quotient at all!!! Might as well give it to bloody anybody. That's my argument derailed by myself in one post...

New York S/S '11 Showcards, for Women:

^That's how I got into this mess - by dating a Japanese girl who introduced me to all these idols! Yeah, Hime's doing her Israeli National Service. I hope she visits again soon...

PLUS ( ) some extra shots from Richter's own portfolio:

^This isn't it (I don't think?) - but it is by Aaron Richter again... ^This one definitely is though! ^Without wishing to bore you with this(!) - the full editorial is now up on the naag site (called 'Tonal Expression'), and here it is:

^Now don't destroy the magic icey!!! As for the LOFT shots Andy - I just think they're not the best lighting, maybe simply a little dark. But if you go to the site and watch the videos you'll see she's still as gorgeous as ever... (Y)

^This isn't it (I don't think?) - but it is by Aaron Richter again... ^This one definitely is though!

^I wanted it to be an easy poll - the presence of that wasp would only have muddied the waters. As it is, the sheer breadth of wrong answers makes me worry for the future of the species...

Christy - (Y) (Y) (Y) Emily - (Y) (Y) (Y)

So she is still active (and alive!), :hell yea!: Shonen magazine No.27 September '10:

^What with Hime away in the army too, it hardly seems worth me posting then..! Ach, I shall persevere - and I hope to see you back here soon.

^This isn't it (I don't think?) - but it is by Aaron Richter again... It's the opening page from naag, which is a webzine by Agyness Deyn, and journalist Fiona Byrne:

^BUMP'N already? This would never happen to a thread about which "Angel" has the best thumb. or whatever. And why oh why has sisito500 not voted??? The irony! ^I know - but I'm sworn to secrecy. All the clues are there though, just follow them...And what's with the ninja face sunshine? No need for narky ninja! LIMA P.I.
