Now that’s more like it!

After the travesty that was the cover of the March 2008 issue of Vogue, it’s nice to see Drew Barrymore, well, looking like Drew on the cover of the April 2008 issue of Domino:

I love the royal blue blouse with sheer sleeves. The necklace is incredible. I then checked the credits: the necklace is from Amrapali of Jaipur (India). No wonder I like it. Jaipur is as well known for its jewelry as for its block-printed textiles.

Also, look at the decor: elements such as a settee upholstered in contrasting fabrics and the Chinese garden stool.

BTW Drew’s called Domino’s first cover girl. Seems that Domino might have had the same problem its sister publication Lucky had: you need recognizable faces to sell magazines.

And now, another gratuitous picture of Drew in ET:

She’s so adorable!

Drew Barrymore on the March 2008 cover of Vogue

Both Beauty Addict and Christopher Drummond are aghast about this horrid Photoshopped picture of Drew Barrymore on the cover of the March 2008 issue Vogue. Beauty Addict notes the changes to Drew’s facial contours, while Christopher notes how thin her arm looks.

I’m aghast, too, as it looks nothing like Drew, and I don’t like the overly arched eyebrow.

Drew has brought new glamour to Cover Girl as that brand’s latest face. It’s easy to forget that she first made a name for herself playing Gertie, the little girl in E.T. When I last watched E.T., I was blown away by how this five- or six-year-old girl (which is how old she was then) took direction.


Gertie encounters E.T. for the first time
