Friday Fashion: More Magazineness

This thing is going to be a weekly-ish feature now.  I have some free digital magazine subscriptions that I've been reading lately and saving some of my favorite pictures from them.  Some of these pictures are great and some are significantly less than great.  So here's the first two, both from Elle.

Can we just talk about this for one second?

I honestly have no idea how her ears aren't falling off.
Probably witchcraft.
The second thing is, why is there just a random basketball?!
Neither one of these people are dressed for shooting hoops.

So that's all. It's sort of a mini one because I have last-minute yard sale stuff to attend to.
