♥ the wolf is a carnivore incarnate,

and he is cunning and he is ferocious.

once he's had the taste of flesh, nothing else will do.

i love this recent spread in the september issue of vogue,

starring fashion chameleon, natalia vodianova,

in yet another fairy tale feature

as a silver haired little red riding hood.

styled by the insanely talented

creative director at vogue, grace coddington,

{who was so interesting to see at work in the film, september issue!},

these images make me want to take out my copy of angela carter's

burning your boats, and re.read her

re.worked and revised versions of little red riding hood

re.told in a manner that is both gothic and familiar.

it also reminds me of one of my favorite radiohead songs,

"a wolf at the door," which i have included for you, my lovelies,

to remind you to:

wear red as often as possible,

always pull your hood up,

and never answer the door to a fur covered stranger.
