Tsum Ad Campaign: New Picture

Quick Post There are new additions to the TSUM ad campaign that Daria posed for this year. The other two sets have been posted here here and here. Check back later on for a review of Daria's latest editorial In Love and some of my favourite editorials.

Daria ... Bond Girl?

We've heard her say that she'd be a sailing instructor, then an artist and now... an actress? As you may know, or if you don't, Daria has produced a film but that's all that's known about her endeavors into Hollywood. Now, the hot topic of discussion is whether or not Daria would be a great actress, and what category she would fall into. In the April 2008 issue of FASHION magazine it was written that she'd like to go into acting after she completes her stint as a model. The question to me is would Daria be better as an indie darling, or a blockbuster Hollywood star?

I'm rooting for the Bond girl route. Don't you think Daria would be the perfect model for the role? After all, we have had Grace Jones as a Bond girl. And know theres relatively unknown Olga Kurylenko starring in the 22nd movie... See Daria might be good for the role because:

1. She looks great in a bikini
2. She looks great in a dress
3. Most importantly she has that kind of mysterious beauty and sexuality that all Bond girls are known for. She's not the typical beauty and everything about her is so easy

I think it would be the type of role where it isn't a big sellout. Daria is not extremely well known in main stream media, apart from her Lancome ads so it would be interesting to see how she would be portrayed. For some reasons, Bond girls strike me as independent, even though they all are damsels in distress. It would be very interesting....

But this is all just musings and speculations. Who really knows other then Daria herself - and I'm not even sure she knows! What do you think? How would you like to see Daria outside of modelling, in what roles - and what she could do if not acting?

If Daria Were a Bounty Hunter

Got Jesus? One of my favourite and funniest Daria editorials has to be the Dog the Bounty Hunter editorial from Vogue Paris (November 'o7). I've watched the show occasionally and let's just say that Dog and his wife Linda are the definition of white trash (in the nicese possible way).They are straightforward, funny and do what they like, all with please and thank you. Plus doesn't Daria look so badass in her leather jacket? I am forever indebted to Carine Roitfeld for producing such a great editorial.

P.S. Ignore the constantly changing header on the blog... I'm still trying to figure out how I should make the layout and I'm getting quite frustrated. So if you see any changes during the week - now you know why :)

P.P.S Does anyone have any Daria pictures they'd like to suggest for the header?
Thanks!

A Little Birdie Told Me # 1

According to the Canadian Post....

Prolific poser Daria Werbowy hasn't lost her urge for the winter-time-sporting she grew up with in Canada. Recently, the Vogue girl landed in Utah to go heli-skiing

Hmm, maybe her recent photoshoot with Shaun White inspired her to hit the snowslopes! I wonder if he gave her any tips?!

Daria will be leaving behind the photoshoot sets to hit the slopes.

Elle Belgium April 2008 : Daria Werbowy by Lalo Gonzalez

A very happy looking Daria on the cover of Elle Belgium. From the font I could manage to read on the front, there doesn't seem to be an indication of a feature with Daria but I doubt they would put her on the cover without some text (or maybe new pictures!)
If there is something on her she must be talking about her work for Lancome - from the picture itself it looks like it was taken when she was in Belgium a few months back.
Although I do love Daria in crazy editorials I prefer the natural laid-back Daria more. Hmm, maybe that's her faithful Miu Miu jacket on the cover...?
Also some backstage pictures of Daria and Gisele were posted at tFs, and they were too adorable not to post here!

Behind the Scenes: Pepe Jeans

A Behind the scenes look at Daria's work on the Pepe Jeans campaign. It is always great to see the candids behind the shooting of campaigns or editorials, as the finished product is only a small percentage of the work that goes into editorials, what with hairstylists, set designers and makeup artists, to name just a few elements.
