Thanks for sharing your experience with copyright infringement, Kristy! That’s so horrible. I don’t understand why companies like that (and I am sure ELLE in Jill’s case) feel that using someone else’s intellectual property without their permission should be considered an honor. What is honorable about it? It is theft, plain and simple!

I agree with your comments re: Blake, but it seems to me that Anna Wintour, and Karl now, both consider her a style icon. I admit I like her style, and think she is stunning, but I also agree that their is a superficiality about her. Maybe it’s because she just seemed to skyrocket to “icon” status for no apparent reason? She just took the fashion world by storm, but we know nothing about her other than the fact that she plays a rich girl on TV. It’s actually difficulty to separate her TV persona from her real life, I think, when it comes to her “style.” I feel like with this new collection Chanel is returning to it’s roots a bit, but we’ll see what the future holds!

Jill, the comments on those shots were MUCH deserved. They were absolutely beautiful.

I agree re: the Chanel collection. It’s definitely one of my favorites in quite some time. Chanel going back to what they do best – luxury!

I sent Elaine a tweet saying you wanted to chat about her experience, so hopefully she’ll get back to you. I read the most updated post on Elle’s blog, and find it abhorrent that Carmen is saying she ironed everything out with you when that evidently isn’t the case (based on your responses). Unbelievable! Definitely hoping for that happy ending for you, though! 🙂

That is mind-boggling to me. I can’t understand how big corporations like ELLE allow staff to do things like that. It shouldn’t happen. I don’t know if you saw Jill’s comment, so I am going to send you a tweet 🙂

though i'm a little late on all this i really appreciate learning about the issue with elle spain and street style by polka dot. i went and commented on her blog and let her known i discovered her through you. how wonderful of you to help her spread the word! what an annoying thing to have happen. this happened to me once with a tshirt i designed in college. the company we used to print them decided to go ahead and put the logo i came up with on their site without asking permission or giving me credit. i was appalled! and when i called them about it they were "confused" as to why i was upset. they said "most people feel honored." feel honored about what? having their intellectual property stolen so that someone else can make money off of it while giving absolutely no credit to the artist? yeaahhh, that's freakin' awesome what an honor. i really don't know how i feel about blake lively being the new face of chanel handbags. she's stunning, obviously, but there's something about it that feels odd to me. she's very much "girl of the moment" with little to prove her talent other than gossip girl which, it can be argued, is not so much a show where one proves their talent... and to me chanel has always felt like it should be about more than just god-given looks. when i think of coco chanel i think of a woman who worked very hard to become who she became. but it's starting to seem as though the further we get from coco, the more chanel embraces a certain superficiality. it's a little depressing. i love your favorite photography picks by the way.

hey Beautiful, came here to thank you for your BEAUTIFUL comment (about my snow shots) and got caught up in your post – love those Chanel shots, and as I was underwhelmed by the last catwalk show, I feel this is really bringing Chanel back to what I loved about the brand all along – oh and I love your selection of photos, too.

Then I just saw this from Elaine – if you’re reading this, is it a recent post? Who was the author?

It’s all going to be fine – I don’t want to say anything just yet but I’ll just let you know first: there will be a happy ending. I always feel there is, if that’s the outcome you want. Forgiveness is everything! x
