We interrupt your regularly rescheduled blog posts for this open letter to Brad Pitt.
Dear Brad,
What happened? The Beard (and yes this is capitalized because it has taken on a life of it’s own)? You used to be so handsome, smooth, and sexy. Remember these days?

Now you’re on the other side of 40, which are supposed to be your golden years, and you start them out with that monstrosity on your face? Please, we beg you, adhere to these 3 little words: shave. it. off. And bring us back to these good old days.

Sincerely,
Jaime and fellow Brad lovers (Jenny penny, I know you share this sentiment with me)


Elementary, my dear Watson

Emma Watson is once again the face for Burberry’s ad campagins. Lucky Ms. Watson gets to wear all those fabulously draped dresses and trenches we swooned over this past fall (if you forget, click here for the runway show).
These three are my faves, but you can see a slide show with more images at NY Mag’s The Cut blog.
