Bar Refaeli (and not for some lame studio shoot) 2. Alyssa Miller 3. Marloes Horst And just for fun, 3 models I hope stay gone: 1. Julie Henderson 2. Kate Upton 3. Anne V

I'd like seeing her in VS because she's gorgeous and has a great body, but she needs to work on her posing and presentation. A lot of her shots with SI looked awkward (not sure if this is her fault or SI just being their normal idiot selves and picking bad pics).

I agree. I love her and don't think she's a bad model, but her SI shots have just gotten so predictable. She should have stopped while she was ahead, maybe just doing another year or two after her cover and then that's it. But at the same time, as foofur said, can't really blame her for saying yes if they ask. The main problem is with SI. They need to stop using models a gazillion times and bring in more fresh faces. Thank god they finally dropped Anne V, but now they need to lose Irina, Jessica, and Chrissy. >.>

Lovers + Friends Spring 2015

My overall take on SI, model by model: Nina: By far the best this year, imo. Lily: While I love Lily and she had a couple good shots, she did so much better last year. This year the lighting was dull, there weren't as many good poses, her suits were boring etc. Kate: Boring. I like her, but her shoot was so much more interesting last year. This year she was just not working it at all. Hannah: I think this was definitely her best year. And even though her cover was terrible, she was a good choice for a cover girl. Emily D: She was one of the ones I was most excited for, and she had a couple of amazing shots, but as a whole this shoot was just not as great as her previous years. But I don't think that was her fault so much as the idiots who were on the crew and shit. Hannah F: I liked a lot of hers this year. Jessica: Wtf. Gigi: A couple good shots, but most of the time her face looks awkard. o.o Samantha: Ew. Chanel: Meh. Ariel: Nice suits and shit, but so many weird backgrounds. Genevieve: Yuck. Emily R: I still just can't get over her butterface status. Other than a weird belly button, she has a great body. It's a shame her face is so ugly and only comes with one expression programmed in. Sara: I love Sara but her shoot just did not do it for me this year. And honestly I just am not convinced her body is SI-worthy. Irina: Like her but the shoot was forgettable and had some horrible suit choices. Chrissy: *gag* Rose: Not interested. Hailey: I love Hailey but her body just looks too Kate Upton-ish sometimes, along the waistline, or lack thereof. But overall she did good. Erin: Her magazine shots sucked, but she had a couple good shots in her shoot. Overall it sucked though. Which is a shame, because as I said, I love her. Robyn: Her shoot was pretty lame. Some great scenery and stuff but she needs to work on her facial expressions and poses. Kelly: Such a butterface it's not even funny. Ashley: I just can't even. Her teeth just bother me so much I can't enjoy most of her pics. Solveig: I love her but there are so many awkward poses. o.o Like wtf is with the hose shots. And I don't get SI's thing for including animals in their pics. It made me wtf back when they had Emily posing with fucking sheep and dogs, and now it's pigs and horses everywhere. xD I know it's 'Murica but we're not THAT obsessed with farming. xDD

Speak for yourself. I love Erin and was really bummed when she left. And she was really popular for a time when VS had her, so it's not that surprising she'd still have fans.

Gotta say, I'm pretty underwhelmed. Nina killed it and a lot of the other girls have good shots, but overall there were a lot of girls I think did better in previous years. And there are way too many girls making me WTF at why they're even in SI.

I kind of figured the half page one still counted. xD But yeah, going by just full pages, she got 2.

Emily D had three. I didn't count the rest to check. XD

Yeesh, I was thinking they'd use her a lot more than that. xD Thanks pheno, you rock. <3

Wait, so Erin only got two shots in the magazine? O.o

Emily D :wub2: Love her shots. Hailey looks great too.

Why did they let Ashley do open mouth shots.

Nina is killing it. The rest of the Natural Beauty shots are pretty mediocre.
