more than a pretty face...


we have to applaud marie claire's editor-in-chief, joanna coles, on her acquisition of nina garcia as the magazine's fashion director. admitted mag hags ourselves, we have noticed a difference in the fashion editorial coverage since garcia has joined the ranks of the former second-tier magazine. with a more sophisticated vibe and inside look at the fashion world, coles and garcia have elevated the magazine's profile and moved it to the "in" crowd along with vogue, harper's bazaar and elle. since september, marie claire has profiled fashion darling ashley olsen along with alexa chung, christina hendricks (of mad men), drew barrymore and ellen page. we especially love "nina's notes" and her inside look into everything from the season's trends to a designer's life long journey in fashion. stay tuned as we predict things to only get better from here.
