If Tori shows up again on Friday in Gorsuch daily email blasts, I just might be able to get through the week: Love her hair in a pony tail or casual or styled, wet or dry. And besides hair versatility, I just noticed my avi is the same pic, different bag and background! From country gentlewoman to city slicker, Tori's unbelievable athletic frame and musculature shows clearly even when mostly covered and combines to work in any setting/background they use. Trying to be objective with Tori is getting harder and harder with each image such as Hollander's post of the Vogue.ru cover!

Okay, so the Autmnal Equinox was yesterday. Winter in the Northern Hemisphere is still hopefully far away! Even if we had several feet of snow tomorrow, it would be fun to see Tori looking so cute in this winter jacket from Gorsuch:

Manic Monday? Here's a calming vision of Tori in Gorsuch Grey. Have a great week!

Here's a Tori pic that came in a daily email from Gorsuch.com in which there are a ton. I almost do a double take when I see her move from so cute to almost inaccessibly aristocratic in Gorsuch and then femme fatalish in TALLY WEiGL. Gawd, what range Tori has! Cute and Sexy regardless of the photograph. Once upon a time, on these very pages, folks had the temerity to label Tori as ONLY an all-American, golden-haired swimsuit model. . . <_< Where are they now? Just checkin'! They have converted! Tori on Top of the World:

Thanks sooooooo much, Ann007! They are soooooo HOTTT--yet another aspect of this amazing supermodelina!

When I finally added an avi after a couple of years on these pages, it was easy to upload with the browse feature. Trying to add a simple pic to the sig never worked as there is no browse button. As you know, have to link it to a pic's url. There are so many amazing, creative and beautiful sigs out there created by such Tori fans as Lady Fatale and Hyperion. All I would like is one pic. Fewer words from me, the better! If anyone can show me the sig way, I'd be much obliged.

If you sign up for emails at Gorsuch.com, you get bombarded with an email or three each day, some of which are of Tori looking warm and fuzzy or ice princessy: Cute Tori in Warm n Fuzzy Fleece! Bombshell Bombardment isn't too bad now is it?

Thanks, Joe>Average, for a hot pic during the dawg daze of August! Where is this pic from as I see a camera next to Tori. Was it during a break? Well, she looks amazing on break or working for any shoot as you know. Hope the end of August finds with a good mix of AC and Heat! I like that description of that look, SNL! "mix of good AC and Heat" nice . And "I've Got a Secret" nice . That was from the SI from last year . Here's some from the video above . Thanks, SnL, for the B/W's. They make her glowing skin glow in a different way. And that FACE! Eyes, nose, mouth, bone structure. Amazing. All without babelicious bod distraction! I got the snail mail Gorsuch Winter edition the other day, and Tori is in it looking once again so patrician. The whole catalogue reminds me of The English Patient (clothes, manners, noblesse oblige). The clothes are so amazing, just shy of being pretentious but simply gorgeous from materials to designs to such details as over-sized medalian buttons. www.gorsuch.com. I still can't figure out how Tori goes from being so warm and cute in some pics to such icy perfection and covered in several layers. Chameleon. Versatilie. Love it! Too Cuuuuuute for comfort then and now! Circa 2006 but worth revisiting to see Tori's Multi-faceted Modelness back in the "early" daze:

Oh, SnL, You are tooooooooooooo good! I love to see still photographs of Tori, but I love to see her athletic frame move in any clothing.

Boy, SnL, you are the perfect person to be on Tori's identity theft watch! I guess the "imitation is the best form of flattery" cliche applies here, unless the imitators are posting bad info or pics as you said. Maybe one of Tori's BZ fans will find some and take some kind of action as you did. Hopefully, she reads these pages or has her peeps letting her know what's out there about her in cyberspace--the good, the bad, and, well, there can be no ugly with Tori! It's not off topic, really, as your post is about Tori.

I like that description of that look, SNL! I am playing catch up so I am seeing Tori's versatility once again in this May editorial just now. This one is from Flair, an editorial called UN' ESTATE A L.A. More pics can also be found on Fashionspot and of course on Tori's IMG page and here on page 69/post #1370. In an effort to find the two-page lead pic, I could only find the right-hand page. The complete pic, of course, is worth it. Again, as I go back to 2006, I see that Tori hit the fashion ground running. People still see her as a swimsuit model with All-American good looks, but the early pics show she had it all back then: face and body to die for and chameleon qualities that work on the runway, in editorials and TV ads. But the Golden Goddess Swimsuit model is part of her and should be included with her entire range. Just do a retrospective once in a while to see all that she can do. A great week to all!

Whoa! Awesome! Jaw, teeth, skin. Oh brother! I've said it all before. I am totally with you, SnL! Tori has such an athletic "figure" that she looks great "under cover" or partly covered! I also agree with you on the whole sexual overtones thing! Whether she looks cute or sexy or glamourous or all three at once, she look so effortlessly beautiful regardless of the look. Maybe it's that Hawaiian calm. These show such a variety of looks that we've come "to know and love" from Tori. And I'm sure we're glad more and more fashionista folks are recognizing it! Speaking of boobs, I agree with you Tori is so perfect from head to toe. . .how does one write about her boobs politely? Okay. I'll try. She defies the multi-media boob barrage over which many or most guys (pc qualifier: heterosexual guys and gay girls) salivate when they see a model/actress/girl next door. Speaking of boobs again, I saw Tori's colleague Marissa Miller on Letterman the other night. I always knew she was fit as a fiddle (esp her core) and knew she had big boobs but she was the most relaxed and articulate guest. Now that I think about it, her beautiful dress covered her boobs completely! Lot of celebs seem nervous on those talk shows at least initially, maybe because they never know what a Conan or Craig Ferguson will throw at them, but she handled herself beautifully in what can be a tough setting. Dave didn't dig her get on her case which helped. And we actually learned quite a bit about her family, etc which sometimes we never get to because the host or guest goes off in some direction. Her "interview" brought me from ignorant to thinking she comes across pretty low key and even likeable and funny. Her anecdotes and comments give her 2D pix a third dimension. Her understated demeanor, at least in my first time seeing her, reminded me of Tori. Back to Tori! Hope we see her maybe talking about her swimwear or family or Danny on a talk show or her impending Bond girl role! (disclaimer: okay it's only my wish for her and not hers and NOT real!)

As I said, I have not been on Tori's pages in a while, but it's always great to see new posters and of course new pics of Tori. You probably have gone back through her pages and seen some fab swimsuit pics as well as fab glam pics showing her versatility. You probably also have noticed that Sweetnlow is the unofficial/honorary/deserving Tori Team Captain who posts aplenty and has so much energy and also so loves everything about Tori's look and personality. If you have any questions about Tori, I'm sure she could fill you in.

Oh boy, minus! Thanks for mo' pix of the Montauk Mama! She looks so natch with board 'n' surf, just like riding a bike! From patrician princess in Gorsuch to beach babe here, Tori looks at home in any setting and in whatever she's wearing!

Oh boy! Thanks for mo' pix of the Montauk Mama! She looks so natch with board 'n' surf, just like riding a bike!

Thanks, Dayrell! There has been no babble from me about Tori's amazingness for sometime, but the notification of your post brought me back to see her looking beautiful, strong/athletic as ever! I love the cover's introduction to her as "model-turned designer" which may one day say "model-turned-designer-turned-actress" or whatever she wants to be. Thanks again. I will have a lot of fun work as I go back through the pics from this cover until I find where I left off. I always thought seeing a movie again or re-reading a novel was a waste because I thought I remembered most of each. In the past few months, I have done both and realized you can really "refresh" your memory about plot details, characters/actors, etc. Going back through these pages will definitely "refresh" my Tori pic memory though I don't think I need any refreshing on details from her to her clothing or sets! There will always be new things to see with each of Tori's pics! Thanks, too, to all those who have been posting so I can go back and refresh!

Thanx, minus! thanks for all the billabong pics and intel. my broken wrist, again outta comission, so no babble thanks to typing lefty. tori looks like she has more muscle weight and as fab as ever. her altruism/charitable instincts are commendable and great to read about. after not getting tori post notices via email and not being able to connect to bz via new laptop, it was great to come back to tori's pages with so many new pics, incl your new sig and avi. have a great week and belated congrats for you and your lakers. Sorry about the wrist problems That's just not fair. Thanx for the Lakers kudos! YAY! Lakers!!! We are the Champions! And thanx for mentioning my new Anja set! I think it's gorgeous! I thought I'd use something new for a change.......going through one of my phai'ses, I guess. There is always such gorgeous editorial stuff done by Anja.....plethora to choose from. I don't know how many of these Billabong campaign pictures we have seen, if any: every time i go to the hospital, i hear far worse stories. even today, one woman had both knees replaced, thoracic surgery and a litany of other issues and she seemed to approach life w alacrity. i try to emulate those folk, but i slip some times and then get mad for slipping. anyway, i was just trying to be matter of fact not maudlin as i said. i'm glaaaaad about your phases. you have amazing tastes and critiques; it's fun to see your talents applied to someone else. everybody here knows you're tori's bestest fan i don't care any more about reposts. i think of them as refreshers. i used never to watch movies or re-read books :wave:or watch movies twice cause i knew story lines, but by gum, i've been doing some revisiting and boy there is quite a bit one pick up again or learn anew. i found exactly the same with tori's pic. remembered one thing and picked something new. . . as with all pics on bz, of course, there are a lot of details to catch one's regardlesss of the number of times one has looked. of course, tori is the fave because, as you know, she deserves/has earned more attention--if she wants it--than has really received. thanks, snl, for your refreshers and again for your awesome avi/sig. you make tori's pages come alive and stay refreshed. didja see the nba ad that shows magic johnson and two lakers v larry bird and celtics? retro championship. it was a good ad shown here in boston anyway. then i saw magic--aka michael earvin johnson--pitching for a rental center company after his glory days. guess we should be happy he's alive.

again, i skimmed through tori's first pages to the latest. i don't think she is a shooting star. she was already a fixture in the heavens from her first shoots: they were professional and included varied looks whether in swimwear or ready to wear. she really hit the ground running in the early pics and set a high benchmark. tori has just refined her talents but when you start off so fast, sometimes dramatic changes are harder to perceive. she has always amazed and will keep doing so.

Thanx, minus! thanks for all the billabong pics and intel. my broken wrist, again outta comission, so no babble thanks to typing lefty. tori looks like she has more muscle weight and as fab as ever. her altruism/charitable instincts are commendable and great to read about. after not getting tori post notices via email and not being able to connect to bz via new laptop, it was great to come back to tori's pages with so many new pics, incl your new sig and avi. have a great week and belated congrats for you and your lakers.

Endangered Species: True Cover Models I said a while ago that every time I walk past a magazine rack, I noticed movie stars and tv stars are replacing model models. Of course, the former are more recognizable to the average Joe and Josephine and therefore are more marketable/profitable. But there has to be a place on the covers for "pure" models as they have a certain je ne sais quoi, of course. From impossibly long bodies to sky high-cheek bones, etc (read Tori). And then there are the garments. They simply drape better on model models. Clearly, there are plenty of model-turned movie/tv stars or just gorgeous starlets, etc. who can easily hold their own on covers and wear the same garments beautifully, but they have to share the wealth or cover spaces. They have their own niche as actresses, etc. We are already saturated with their images. Give the rest of the stunners a chance. A free market reigns in fashion, but covers of fashion magazines should be saved for true models as defined by. . . Today, I walked past a magazine rack and barely looked because it would be the same as usual, celeb after celeb. Blah. But out of the corner of my eye I saw Tori gazing out of a cover. But upon closer inspection, it was Princess Di's Niece, Kitty Spencer. And upon further inspection on Google, she is NO Tori. In fact, Tori's patrician look whoops Kitty's "true" blue-blood (as defined by Burke's Peerage) look. So now model's are competing with British royalty and celebs. Even American royalty models (eg Hearst sisters) may be displaced. How do we re-COVER the models? Okay that was lame. But seriously. . . where have all the true cover models gone? Kitty Spencer:

Oh my gawwwwwwwwwd, Izzy, AGAIN! These are amazing! Thanks sooooooooooo much for your efforts. After looking in vain for the hard copy of Gorsuch, I went on their website but forgot it is packed with everything, including Tori pics! Such understated elegance there and such vavoom here, but it's still understated vavoom if there can be such thing. Anyway, there was so much on Gorsuch and tricky to find it all that I realized you deserve an extra-special thank you for posting all these pics. :hell yea!: :hell yea!: As someone wrote the other day who wasn't sure if he or she had re-posted, it doesn't matter! Each re-post refreshes! Get some rest! I will give it a rest because all the pics of Tori have produced sensory overload and left me relatively speechless, despite the fact that each pic speaks a thousand words times infinity! Multiply that by the number of pics, and I would blow out BZ and no one would be happy! BTW way don't confuse my babble with talent!

After that Monday Morning Manic babble, I forgot my fave: the mint green dress where Tori is "balancing." An unrestricted dress "hiding" all her "assets" save for her strong arms and beautiful skin, and Tori is still oh so cuuuuuute/gorgeous. I wish we had more pics of her actually balancing for real on her board, where it all started. I know her athleticism helped her handle that shot !

Izzy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Slow to POST?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GAWD! CUT IT OUT! You are handsdown the best Praver poster on either side of the Mississippi! YOU MANAGED TO COMBINE QUALITY AND QUANTITY in your sleep! All Boston teams of course, save for the Red Sox are playing golf, allowing earlier sleep times if one is watching here in EDT. I personally switched to the Red Wings with whom I have been lucky enough to touch Lord Stanley's Cup. Of course, Tori has a hand in it! This surely is a gorgeous bunch o' pics! So many! Sensory overload! Thanks, esp, for the fab fedora! and its close up! On these pages, there are a few laughs like that, unrestrained. Priceless. Tori has always been gorgeous from her early Guess?/Von Unwerth shoots to these latest posts from Gorsuch and Goldenpointe pics. No question. Versatile and gorgeous. Period. I will never tire of saying it even though people may have gotten sick of my doing so. One minute, her eyebrows catch my eye, the next her . . . . and so on. Then always all together, "the sum of her parts," of course. Lewis Carroll (aka Charles Dodgson, Rugby "boarding school"/Oxford Univ alumnus, mathematician and PHOTOGRAPHER) would have have written "Tori has grown gorgeouser and gorgeouser with each passing minute! She just needed a chance to showcase her versatility. Hopefully, Tori/IMG will get her mo' bettah opportunities to keep the fab fotos coming. Tori does, however, seem to go at her own pace--even in her Ford days, which of course, leaves us hankering for more! Again, it may be that Island constitution: relaxed but ready. I don't care. I will wait. Hope you are in DEEP SLEEP at about 0530 PDT in LA now, IZZY! THANK YOU AGAIN AND AGAIN! Have a great week to you and everyone, and of course Tori/Danny, without whom these pages would not be in bidnezz! PS I still have that Gorsuch catalogue with her patrician look, one of my faves because the aloofness, even snootiness is the antithesis of here super cute pics in some many others. Again, she can capture both so easily. The chance of my seeing it when recycling. . . .But now I realized the spring and/or summer version may just have made it to greener pastures so to speak. If you can order the catalogue, I think like any magazine, the print quality beats the digital on-screen anyday.

I saw a great pic of Tori on billabong.com and remembered what awesome chiclet teeth Tori has. And the laugh, so genuine. . . http://www.billabonggirls-usa.com/fashion....ories/JAHTFKEN/ but I couldn't save it from Flash Player 10. If someone could save post it, and of course, any others, I would be much obliged!
