I'm posting this picture of Kate Moss because, thanks to her, I didn't get soaked on the way to my car this morning.

You see, my apartment has a small "library" that consists mostly of trashy paperbacks and fashion magazines. Since I found myself without an umbrella, I resourcefully picked up a year-old copy of "W" magazine before dodging out into the rain. Being large-format and of considerable paper stock, my copy of "W" served as an effective shield. Not as good as an actual umbrella, but better than nothing.





Anyway, none other than Kate Moss appeared on the cover, so I feel sort of indebted. Thanks, Kate. You're doing good work; keep it up!

A rolling Mac gathers (Kate) Moss.

Especially when it's raining.

My old green umbrella that I used the other day seems so prosaic now.

After using a fashion magazine to fend off rain, I may never use an umbrella again!

Has she gained some weight? I can see her standing sideways!

no - really, she's beautiful, I like this B & W.

*stunned silence*

well, I have a whole new appreciation for nude B & W's... what can I say.

Mac said...

I think this is my favorite Kate Moss picture. She looks vulnerable, but in a crafty kind of way.

Sorry, Mac - I know there's many things upon which we agree, but Kate Moss isn't one. She looks like a heroin addict!

Hey, it's the style. Half the models in Harper's Bizarre (I mean Bazaar!) Vogue, Elle, and their imitators look like heroin addicts. Smiling ist verboten. Grim and strung out are in.

I will argue this one time in defense of Kate... she certainly may not be smiling, however, strung out she DOES NOT look.
Believe me I am a woman who is highly critical of that heroin junky look in models, and this has got to be one of the best pics I have EVER seen of Kate. She looks like she owns this B&W; - the photographer probably did an entire series [which is MANY] just to get this one shot.

It is a really good pic.

Say it, Cyn!
