We adore Mathu Placek’s polaroids for V Magazine fall blowout party. Check out Sessilee Lopez, Liya Kebede and Cecilia Dean up close and personal.

Speaking of V, their new beauty issue has THE top beauty names in the biz. It’s a must buy…

Death is the new black. There’s something about some of the newest images out there that are definitely disturbing.

New classic Brazilian guy by Didio,Leandro Cagliari, in various states of undress of course.

Josh Beech can do it all. Besides the modeling and singing, he’s taking pictures that comment on the personal, political and cultural influences in his travels. A snippet appears on The Malcolm which showcase that this handsome young man is more than just a pretty face.

The Last Magazine, the ultra cool, ultra large fashion/art magazine, needs interns.

We adore Elite New York’s Lisanne (and former MOTW) with her rocking Alexander Wang boots. Just the right amount of sexy and tough for fall.
