It’s been a great year for Teen Vogue. Cover wise of course. The only let down this year was their August issue, featuring the dream couple, Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield. They got Josh Olins as the photographer, they tapped the hottest celebrity couple as the cover stars (they’re real life couple in case you didn’t know), and the result was a prom picture. There’s not even a single chemistry there! What a shame.
Young and talented cover stars Elle Fanning, Ashley Benson, Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato looking gorgeous on the front pages. Their cover images are the ones that we love this year. They’re cute, age appropriate and beautifully photographed with great color composition! The other images featuring Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Katy Perry, Miranda Cosgrove, Victoria Justice, and the boys of One Direction are quite good too, even though we are not crazy about it.
We are really looking forward for 2013, because we are curious which celebrities will editor in chief Amy Astley brings as the cover stars. And will they make it as good or better than 2012? We have to wait and see.

This 2011 recap marks W magazine’s first full covers line up with new logo since they changed it September 2010 and their covers did not disappoints.
Stefano Tonchi‘s edited monthly publication chose actors Garrett Hedlund and Emma Stone to graced the January covers photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin and then the magazine gave an exclusive first look of February cover girl, Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander (remember the tension between Vanity Fair and W about the cover star?) from the upcoming David Fincher‘s The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. The cover was photographed by Jean Baptiste-Mondino who also shot the April covers featuring Michael Fassbender and Mia Wasikowska.
Academy Award nominated actress, Mila Kunis heated up the March cover as she was photographed by Craig McDean in Eres silk bra and Chanel silk tulle organza coat. The British born New York based fashion photographer also lensed Mad Men‘s January Jones for the two covers of May issue. Academy Award winning actors, Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks was photographed together by Mario Sorrenti for the June issue promoting Larry Crowne. The Naples born New York City based photographer also shot one of my favourite magazine covers ever, the December issue featuring the divine Dakota and Elle Fanning. Another Academy Award winning actress, Tilda Swinton, also one of the cover stars for W magazine this year. The 2008 winner of Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role from Michael Clayton was lensed by Tim Walker for August issue.
Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott (the first was born in Turkey while the latter in Wales) photographed Kristen Stewart like we’ve never seen her before, winged tip eyeliner and boufant hair, for the important September cover while the October cover featuring In Time lead casts, Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried, marked the returns of Michael Thompson for magazine cover in a long time.
W gave another slot of two different covers for July (Music & Style) and November (Art & Fashion) issues featuring one nude Christina Aguilera by Daniele & Iango, glammed up Beyoncé by Patrick Demarchelier, the rising model Sui He by Max Vadukul and the quirky Nicki Minaj by Francesco Vezzoli respectively.

Two of Hollywood foremost young actresses and sisters, Dakota and Elle Fanning are the epitome of divine in the December cover preview of W magazine!
17 year old Dakota Fanning sparked controversy recently because of the Jurgen Teller photographed image of Marc Jacobs Oh Lola! fragrance banned in the UK. The UK Advertising Standards Agency have deemed the pictures ‘too suggestive’ and have ordered it be pulled forthwith.
According to the regulatory body the “length of her dress, her leg and the position of the perfume bottle drew attention to her sexuality. Because of that, along with her appearance, we considered the ad could be seen to sexualise a child.” You may view the campaign image, here.
Her 13 year old sister, Elle, gaining quite a positive buzz this year with her role in JJ Abrams‘s Super 8 and the campaign slot for Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall Winter 2011. Elle Fanning also featured on the gorgeous cover of LOVE magazine this year.
