Nubia's Nonsense: numero magazine

Hey Nubians,

I've Always Enjoyed Daydreaming. I've Always Liked The Thought Of Being Somewhere Else ...

I was catching up on my editorials and I felt the need to share Stella Lucia by Txema Yeste for Numéro #175. The editorial seems like a day dream to me. It's also a good example of when fashion meets art and self expression. There's a bit of UFO/extraterrestrial vibes to the editorial and a lot of it also screams empowerment.

Sometimes we daydream to find our own safe heaven, at least I know I do. A place where we can be ourselves without anyone interrupting our happiness or passing on judgment no matter how weird or crazy you want to be... doesn't it sound lovely?

If this photo doesn't scream empowerment I don't know what does. Stella Lucia does an amazing job at remaining fabulously calm and fierce while a snake just hangs out on her cheek bone like home sweet home. The sweater she is wearing with the pearl embellishments has my Fall style goals written all over it. The minimal makeup is painfully delightful too.

How often do you daydream? What do your Fall Fashion goals look like?

Cheers!

Hello Nubians & Babetrons,

Being the colorful person that I am, I try to stray away from posting too much black and white photography. However, I couldn't resist with this editorial, it's marvelous. It also made me home sick!

Alisa Ahmann has the modeling game on smash. The poses, the stares, the fierceness, EVERYTHING. I've seen various of the editorials she stars in and she's always so damn good. I love how this editorial for Numéro Magazine takes place in Manhattan rooftops. Makes me miss NYC a bit but I'm visiting next month for a while so yay!

There are so many qualities in this editorial that I want to incorporate to my Fall/Winter fashion wardrobe. I am dying to get my hands on some good latex items. I am also planning to bring hardcore use of the blazer back. I can't wait to pull out my pleather and faux fur either. It's like I have all these visions floating around in my head.

Absolutely stunning.

What do you guys think of these looks? Kudos to the photography and crew.

Cheers!

Hey Nubians,

I've really been into this editorial lately of Amanda Murphy for French Numéro Magazine August 2014 shot by Greg Kadel. It kind of makes me think of fantasy art brought to life and the styling by Bill Mullen is crazy good.

The story around this editorial is the play between animals and humanity. A lot of the details from the outfits and the headpieces are inspired by exotic animals. I love that the scaffolding in some of the outfits add a bit more depth and dimension to the photographs. The colors and prints also make everything pop out more, especially photos where the outfit and backdrop contrast. The wings add a nice dark element as do the sculptured shoulder pads, studded choker necklaces and dramatic headpieces with medusa-ish vibes.

It looks like a mystical, enchanting, sci-fi dream come to life in this months Numéro Magazine editorial. The straight-forward style in which the photos were shot make them all the more stunning. Check it out below.
