Katie Holmes – Cover Elle US – February 2011

Photographed by Carter Smith for the cover of Elle US’s February 2011 issue, Katie Holmes embodies the Camelot-esque style while wearing some of the beautiful Spring 2011 designs from Tom Ford and Phillip Lim. Playing the role of Jackie in the upcoming eight part mini-series, Holmes’ and Greg Kinnear’s performances are eagerly anticipated.  However, audiences will have to remain patient as it was just released (January 9, 2011), that The History Channel will not air the mini-series (read article here).

What is impressive about Holmes’ choice to play Jackie is that they do appear to carry themselves very similarly and Holmes clearly have visible physical characteristics that would make her ripe for the role.  For more on Katie Holmes’ style, read Rules of Style – Katie Holmes, and if you are an aficionado of Jackie Kennedy Onassis, you might want to read Pamela Keogh’s book Are You A Jackie or A Marilyn? Read a review of it here.

Sarah Jessica Parker – Cover Elle US – January 2011

Being the President and Chief Creative Officer at Halston and Halston Heritage, as well as an actress, mother, mogul and style icon doesn’t seem to be slowing down Sarah Jessica Parker one iota. Appearing on the cover of Elle US January 2011 issue, she looks casually cool and elegant simultaneously.

I must admit whenever SJP is a cover girl, it doesn’t seem to matter what magazine it is, it ends up making its way home, and I continual to be inspired by her business savvy and fashion sense.  Take a look at the entire photo shoot below taken by Tom Munro.

Jessica Alba – Cover Elle US – December 2010

An unexpectedly bright and sunny cover for December’s issue of Elle US, but Jessica Alba shines no matter what the season. In shades of pinks, tangerine, lavender and a splashing of polka dots, Alba looks radiant.
