Hello, you. June’s theme will be LONGING. Unlike more-acute forms of desire like desperation or need, longing is a sweet ache—more pining for something than dying for it. It’s nostalgia, homesickness, boredom, a persistent feeling of lack, dreaming of escape/the future. It’s summer: summer homes & cottages, stuffy summer bedrooms, sun-bleached memories of summers past. The shadow of September that hangs over June. It’s secret hangouts, crushes, unrequited love. Send what you’ve got here, and thanks. ♥
These are so so so cool!!!
P.S. If my Doc Martins became humans, I would have no choice but to marry them. Literally the best shoe brand ever.

Log in to replyI recently bought a hat like Hannah’s and wanted to glue pearls (including alphabet and candy pearls) on its black ribbon (so you don’t see it anymore, but where it was a bow there would be darker or lighter pearls…), but now I want to do that too… Maybe half pearls and half flowers or flowers between pearls? Ah!
Log in to replyAlso Pavneet’s nails and hair are perfect and everybody’s boots… Hannah’s dress… Let me be your honorary friend?!

Whoop whoop!!!
Real-sized models looking gorgeous! Congrats yet again, Rookie.
Log in to replylove love love that rookie’s photographers are not just sticking to super-skinny people for their shoots, but can we stop calling a particular body shape ‘real’? are other girls’ bodies imaginary?
Log in to replyI agree – I’m glad you’re happy with the casting, but EVERY girl is a real girl.
Log in to replyi love this — the makeup is so right, not overdone, it’s so ideal and subtly perfect.
Log in to reply#9 is perfect
Log in to replyDid you guys make the tights? Tell me how! Gorg!!
Log in to replyeleven! 11! ELEVEN
Log in to replyThese girls are beautiful. The makeup perfectly complements the outfits – the makeup artist has done a wonderful job!
