w in brooklyn

by grasie on 31. Aug, 2010 in Photography

My beautiful September issue of W came in the mail today and featured this gorgeous spread shot in Brooklyn, NY. I was born in BK and lived their until our move to Manhattan when I was 12. There’s something so interesting, moody and rich about Brooklyn which is all very apparent in these shots. And how gorgeous are the clothes?! Makes me super excited for Fall. Stay tuned for a Fall Fashion post coming soon. Photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott Styled by Alex White (I do believe Alex White is a style God)

Shot today with the uber talented photographer BRADLEY MEINZ. We’re going to try to shoot as often as possible and I’m very excited about that! Here I am in a gifted Jungle Gurl COVER black romper, vintage shades, Jessica Simpson ring (yeah, I know!), Urban Outfitters belt, Monet earrings, American Apparel lace tube bra & gifted Wild Rose shoes.

Behind the scenes secret: I stretched out the shades with my large head and they kept slipping off! Hence the crazy angry face in the 3rd photo.

more, please

My August issue of W Magazine came in the mail today, which was pretty perfect since I’m currently on a plane to NY and was able to read through it during take-off. Hottie Jon Hamm graces the cover with British starlet Rebecca Hall. The photos are hot and its great to see a rougher, scruffier Don Draper. Either way more please.
