For the 50th edition of Russh, the always cool Aussie glossy, pulls out all the stops. The ‘Now Showing’ issue focuses on the inspirational power of cinema and storytelling as an artform, so it is no surprise that the mag is filled with leading ladies; from fashion’s hottest models, to Hollywood’s rising beauties and insightful auteurs. Naturally each editorial tells its own story – on the cover Marie Piovesan plays a modern day incarnation of Marie-Antoinette, while editorials inside feature Rosie Tapner showing off the season’s striking shapes and Ruby Jean Wilson getting the Wim Wenders treatment in a ‘Wings of Desire’ inspired photoshoot.

Be sure to check out Russh when it hits stands Feburary 6th, or check out the iPad edition in the App store.

Want to see the seasons essentials all in one place? Never fear, The New York Times Style Magazine has got you covered. Sebastian Kim shoots Marie Piovesan in the Times’ key concepts for fall – the decorated jacket, the wrap and the new suit. These ideas are stylishly brought to life by Ethel Park, who styles Marie in key looks from Balenciaga, Prada, Alexander Wang and many more. (For full portfolio go to NYTimes.com).

The Just Kids issue strikes again with an uproarious celebration of all things young, shot by the talented Amy Troost and styled to perfection by Alastair McKimm. Girls of the moment Kolfinna Kristofersdottir, Marie Piovesan & Laura Kampman sport a bold mix of stunning vintage finds and seasonal pieces from names Junya Watanabe, Comme des Garcons & J.W. Anderson as they tell the i-D audience a little about what makes being young so fun. The out of this world makeup by Yadim and ultracool hair by Rudi Lewis (Paris: Management + Artists, New York: Management + Artists) only add  to the feeling of youthful exuberance.

Is there a single more ubiquitous luxury item than the Givenchy couture nose rings? Sure those Prada car print skirts are everywhere and you can’t walk down the street without seeing a Celine luggage tote, but nothing is more noticeable than five pounds of metalwork dangling from a beautiful girl’s face.

Add to this that the Givenchy nose rings have all the elements of an editorial frontrunner; undeniable visual impact – check, expensive – check, hard to get your hands on – double check. There was absolutely no way editors could resist themselves and as such the rings have been showing up in every magazine imaginable for the past few months.

Are you still enjoying seeing these beautiful ornaments – or are you ready to move on to the next trend? We admit to experiencing a bit of Givenchy fatigue – considering that the pieces are always styled with Givenchy looks, which is nice but not exactly exciting. Wouldn’t it be interesting to see these paired with something else – maybe mix in one of those other overexposed editorial favorites, Balenciaga Darth Vader visors anyone?
