I got an email from LOVE in May and it has been SO hard to keep quiet about this! I'm glad I can finally talk about it!
I was first contacted to do an interview and take pictures of myself like I do for this here bloggyblog only with a box of lovely samples sent over by the magazine. Let me tell you something, it was so hard to say goodbye to the clothes when they had to be shipped back. Dare I break into Dreamgirls right about now? DARE I?
Anyway, saying goodbye to the clothes was as hard as I imagine it would be saying goodbye to a bunch of people you took a month-long trek through the Himalayas. But minus the goodbyes, it was lots of fun. Then I was contacted about interviewing Jordan Wolfson, a conceptual artist who is lots of fun to talk to and had lots to say (it's a shame I had to cut it down but hope he likes the article..)

And the photos I took...(getting this in the mail right before leaving for school supplies shopping was completely surreal..)
Pixie was really great to speak with and asked questions I've never even thought about..so fun.And the photos I took, including ones that ended up not being used in the magazine or on the website. (For LOVE only, do not use please..!)
This bike like..doesn't have tires? Or a chain? Or something? I DUNNO, it was super hard to move. Or I'm a weakling? Yeah that's probably it.
I wanted to keep the dress!
Aghjshfewjtfabhwer Comme aw09 coat, I DIE. I MAY OR MAY NOT have pictures of me just hugging myself in the coat, so I will always have the memory of what it was like to be in Its Holy Prescense.Blogging on a Friday night/worshipping a coat YEP I'M A WILD GAL.
Angie's skirt and Yokoo's chain! (Yokoo's will be in the CWAC shop..)
This last one wasn't even sent to them because I didn't like it...I still don't really like wtf I'm doing in this but I do like the clothes!I started taking pictures of my favorite features in the issue but it ended up being practically every other page, so I'll just list my top 10 (I was going to do 5 but couldn't pick..) in no particular order:
-"Posh Sans Dosh," Julia is in it along with lots of other rad people, the styling is epic and all the awesome ladies in it look like tweedy little bowtie grandmas and I love it!
-"Pixie and Ashley," they're both just too rad.
-"Dorothea," once again, epic styling (what else can you expect from Katie Grand?) that makes me so excited for winter and, yknow, a Comme coat, so I have to love it..
-"Boxer Beat," I know NOTHING about boxing and this completely fascinated me.
-Article about the kids that work at Hollister. Kind of eerie, really interesting though.
-Taylor Swift feature. I think she's awesome and I love her!
-"Bloodline" shot by Mert & Marcus, just so rad.
-Billie Lourd interview with Marc Jacobs, she's cool and so is he!
-Cover girl Coco Sumner's feature, love her.
-"Thigh Society" and "Hot to Trotsky" I am counting as one because I am a cheater even though they're totally different...the styling, again! Just amazing.
I haven't read the articles on Disney or Hugh Hefner's sons yet but I'm looking forward to. Go buy the issue!
It's always nice to see a better version of yourself but with LOVE I felt like they kept it true to my style and who I am as well...thank you thank you thank you LOVE!!

these photos are AMAZING. seriously, mind blowingly fantastic. so happy for you!
i started to type "what a lucky girl", but they didn't ask you for the interview because you are lucky, they chose you because you are ace, pure and simple <3
Those are fantastic! I love the one where you're wearing the polka dot skirt.
so much better than having a stylist frill up a celebrity. this is what magazines about fashion should be doing. and the one with the multicolored yokoo scarf is jawdropping. excited to read the interview, as i'm sure you did a wonderful job considering what i've read on here.

you're so cool, I wish I were more like you when I was 13, instead of that trend called an'emo' or whatever. it makes me angry even thinking about it.
keep it up!
It is so great to see a young, talented, creative stunner like yourself getting such rightly deserved attention/accolades. This is why I love the internet!
That's so awesome for you, Tavi. Well done - seriously.
Fantastic.
LOVE brought you to my attention and I am so grateful.
You're awesome <3 I love the Vivienne Westwood T-shirt dress!

http://therevoltishere.blogspot.com/
Tavi, you have such a killer sense of style and confident attitude that I want to hug and then let shine from absolutely everywhere.... Congratulations. You're amazing.
You're swimming in that Comme coat. Too cute.
These pictures are so amazing!!! They're wonderful! I mean, seriously, these outfits are divine. (did i seriously just say divine???- im such a nerd...) I wish they made accessible clothes like that in my size (i have a ridiculous height of 4 foot 9 at age 13)... :-O
Anyway, wonderful clothes, wonderful spread, wonderful model... :-D
(I'm so cliché and lame- i sound like a grandma pinching your cheeks...and for this, I apologize. Deeply.)
Must know: what make is the UFO dress?
this is so fantastic, tavi! i also saw you on the list of 99 most influential fashion bloggers, congratulations on that too. i wanna push a broken red bike through a bush looking all cute.
Wow, Tavi, I'm always laughing to hard with your blog that I never paid attention to what a natural beauty you are! You styled this very nicely; well done!
loved this post tavi!
where did you get the knitted chain?
Who is it by... or where is it from?
I love it!
agh. so cute in the clothes.
Congratulations!!!
Could you please post a link to the magazine itself?
I see a couple of magazines called Love.
I'll check if it's available here in Sweden or maybe order a copy.

Wow, It's my first time on this blog, and I really love it. You have an amazing and uniqe style. Something I really don't see every day! I just think you are awesome, and dare I say it, because you are probrably going to be mad, but... adorable! I just really like this blog! And of course these clothes you have on these photos!
I cannot wait to get my copy of Love!!! You are in POP too!!! I JUST read it, and i see this girl and i'm like.. hold up!!!! It's tavi! lol. So awesome, you look great in the pink wig lol. you should dye your hair pink :P x
This reminds me that I MUST stop by Borders and get hold of Pop and Love. You look great!
Congrats for everythings! The photos are lovely. Not sure if I'd be able to send all of those clothes back... What's wrong with just borrowing, for a while? ;p
you must get michelle williams comparisons daily, minutely.
Meh (Derbish word for: NOT fair/gutted/rubbish!)
In other words - this so isn't fair and I'm raaather jealous! I never get sent nice clothes by amazing magazines (haven't bought this copy of LOVE yet but now can't wait till I'm de-brokified!) Now can't wait for my next babysitting job!
Any chance you could read my blog at some point? I'd really appreciate a reader other than my friend Amy - especially one with such an incredible blog herself!

Congrats! Glad you changed your mind about doing interviews.

hi tavi. you are my role model. please could you take some of your time to check out my blog? thank you.. x
I'm desperate to read the magazine.. but can I get it in England?
Magazines need to be more like this.. it's so much more real compared to a celebrity.
Thank you!
I went out and bought it as soon as I read this. Enough said.
xxxx

Tavi you are BRILLIANT. i want to be like you -- i am 20 years old and I wish for your style skills.

You're an elf Tavi, a wonderous little elf.
Your poses are PERFECT for the outfits. Congratulations on getting your own little spread in the magazine.
You are something else!
