something secret

via fashion gone rogue Claire Danes by Chris Nicolls I think we can all agree that Claire looks radiant on this cover, so onto more important things: DID YOU SEE THE HOMELAND FINALE?!?!?!?!? I won't spoil it, but if you're a fan of the show an Danes'epic cry-face, you're in for a treat! And oh yea, gorgeous cover girl!

via tomandlorenzo Elle Fanning by Pierre Debusschere Another little fashion darling. I'm loving this spread a ridiculous amount.
