Kate Moss Covers British Vogue June 2012

With red lips, retro curls, a white gladiator Versace dress and Kara Ross Crescent earrings, Kate Moss smolders on the cover of this month’s 'Going for Gold' British Vogue.  

Only weeks ahead of this summer’s Olympic Games and Jubilee celebrations, this remarkable, and distinctly patriotic, edition of Vogue pays tribute to both British sporting legends and national treasures alike. 

This is thirty-eight year old Croydon-born supermodel Kate Moss’ 32nd British Vogue cover and she was shot by photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott looking every inch an Olympic goddess and British beauty.

Snap!  Does Kate Moss’ pose, clutching a thick coil of rope look familiar?  A couple of years ago photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott used the exact same rope (right) in their Emporio Armani campaign, featuring yet another national treasure (and British beauty!) David Beckham.

Versace studded leather and silk dress (from £4,030) and Kara Ross Crescent earrings, (£100) are available from Harvey Nichols.

2012 Olympic Games Commemorative Coins

In the lead up to THIS year’s Olympic Games in London, a series of commemorative coins are being issued by the Royal Mint.

29 sports will be represented on 50 pence pieces and in this particular design below, by Neil Wolfson, an attempt is made to explain football’s ‘Offside Rule.’

So now you can happily, and with full comprehension of the rules, sit watching football with your boyfriend… Orrrr, you can go and spend your 50p.
