I couldn´t wait to finish this post to show you all beautiful black & white photos. They´re so special.

I love the atmosphere in black & white pictures, don´t you? They can be a little scary and stylish at the same time… Here´s a great example of that:

Giovanna Mezzogiorno

From: giovannamezzogiorno.com

She´s really got that sexy-scary thing going on. Go Giovanna. Can´t wait for the family photo…I bet that´ll scare the shit out of me. Horrifying. Horror movie-horrifying.

She plays in a great movie (from year 2000), L´ultimo bacio, have you seen it? If not, you really should!

Creepy as hell but cool, Kate Moss takes us to another level in her younger days, actually the prototype:

She is so special, I like the innocense in her face & eyes:

Nowadays she has a whole different sparkle in her eye, more mature:

I really like this photo because of the contrast between the inappropriate way she´s sitting, the girly fabric & clothes & the hard make up:

(…I know the feeling she´s projecting…)

Angelina Jolie, in an extravagant classy role. Speaking of scary, the (beautiful!) dog to the left looks a bit ghost-ish. I´m waiting for it to move -like it shouldn´t be able to….a fabulous shot.

I love the conservative, strong look. Here are some pics that she took for St John knits. The black & white enriches that atmosphere, don´t you think?

Here´s a beautiful silhouette, feminine & busy:

I found a fabulous photo of Julia Roberts that makes me smile. I´m thinking that in the middle of a pose she fell -softly- in to a big cloud of fabric & started laughing…. :

Diane Kruger is such a fresh breeze, here with her autograph:

Audrey Tatou is so beautiful & looks fragile in this photo:

Strike a fashion pose! …Aerosmith´s singer, Steven Tyler, does that hand move all the time. I wonder if he had something to do with this. Can you imagine him running around behind the scenes -NO! MORE fingers, MOOORE!

Helena Christensen´s luminous eyes are glowing even in black & white:

I also think that Christy Turlington has wonderful, calme bud radiante eyes:

I´ll let this be the only trace of color in this post, because I love the way the forms play in it:

Speaking of form, V magazine presented some cool photos of this kind:

This is not from the same shoot though. I love the geeky look!! This photo is taken by Karl Lagerfeld:

She has SO many good photos, it kills me. Here´s an interesting one. I love how photos can play with your imagination, like is this for real? :

I love looking at old photos & icons, like Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel.

From: plazakvinna.com

Here´s the strong woman behind it all (1883-1971), Gabrielle Bonheur.

Even called, Coco Chanel:

From: stylequeenxo.blogspot.com

You should read about her!! Even with a slightly interest, if that´s the case. She´s really an icon, not only to design but also to attitude & new thinking.

Here´s a Christy Turlington photo again, in the Chanel spirit:

Now I have to stop before I loose my color vision… But I´ll surely be back to enrich the variety….

I leave you with a little music & more models
