Mad as Hell! Six Models with the Meanest Mugs Ever!

Runway stares have gotten fierce—literally. Sure, it's the clothes we're meant to focus on, but for every million-dollar smile, we're discovering there's a way angrier version worth just as much (even more!), and twice as intimidating. Seems The Cut believes models opt for a mean look because appearing happy somehow seems awkward. Agreed, there's nothing worse than a phony grin. Regardless, we're rather smitten with the rash of angry glares, and have even ranked them from Mildly Annoyed to Downright Murderous.



 Coco Rocha (Anger Index: Mildly Annoyed)
The Canadian redhead couldn't be sweeter in person, but on the catwalk, she's gained a rep for her dark, brooding scowl.



Katie Fogarty (Anger Index: Surly)
Weird coincidence, but the brunette with the infamous frowny pout also hails from St. Louis. Something funky in the pipes or what?




Karlie Kloss (Anger Index: How Dare You...)
The St. Louis-native's zombie-like "death stare" has made her one of the most sought-after models in the business.




Madisyn Ritland (Anger Index: Thoroughly Disgusted)
The Colorado native's light eyes and intense stare brings two words to mind: Crazy and Beautiful. Or maybe Crazy and Vicious. Either/or.



Egle Tvirbutaite (Anger Index: Daggers for Eyes)
The Lithuanian beauty always works an ornery grimace with a villainous edge thanks to her asymmetrically arched eyebrows. Mean!



 Lara Stone (Anger Index: Murderous)
Her razor-sharp cheekbones and otherworldly stare seem to suggest that some sort of awful death-by-beauty awaits us.

Hailing from Amsterdam, ilovefake describe their audience as of a young age (16-40) opinion formers, with an interest in fashion, design and art.

Remember Walkmans?


I remember when I was little and I really wanted a walkman.  I had told my dad about it.  My Dad would give me more than I would ask for.  He is the best a girl could ever ask for.  Papi came home with a surprise for me.  CD Player!  When they just came out.  I told Papi that I didn't want it.  I wanted to play tapes.  He returned it and got me the Walkman.


Sick Trailer.

I want one!


16 Year Old Fashion Photographer



You wouldn't be crazy to think that these photographs were taken by a big, wise grown-up. But they're actually by a very talented Australian teenager. 

Nirrimi Joy Hakanson is just 16-years-old and while she's modest about her work, she's also got some big dreams
and hopes to be shooting for Vogue before officially being an adult. Her photographs are often beautifully composed and lit and have a borderline saccharine, vintage tinge. 

She is self-taught and if this is what she's capable of at 16-years-old, suffice to say that we are keeping an eye on this one.

Hipster or Scumster?

Hipster is a slang term which appeared in the 1940s. In the 1990s and 2000s it was used to describe young, recently-settled urban middle class adults and older teenagers with interests in non-mainstream fashion and culture, particularly alternative musicindependent rockindependent film, magazines like ViceClash and Adbusters, and websites like Pitchfork Media. In some contexts, hipsters are also referred to as scenesters. The term is sometimes used in a derogatory manner, referring to someone who moves from trend to trend while claiming to be outside of mainstream culture.  
Here's a funny descriptive drawing of a Hipster for those who don't know.

This man-size volume—it comes in its own briefcase—showcases megacool buildings like Frank Gehry's funky Experience Music Project in Seattle. 

2. BOOK HIP: THE HISTORY BY JOHN LELAND ($26,95) 
Leland's brainy survey makes you see hip as not just a marketing label but as a way of life, demonstrating the surprising links between topics as diverse as pulp fiction and Snoop
Dogg

th-anniversary reissue of this classic work. 

4. DVD COFFEE AND CIGARETTES ($29.98) 
Indie king Jim
Jarmusch spent 18 years shooting these 11 deadpan shorts, which feature stars such as Cate Blanchett, Bill Murray and Iggy Pop gulping java, dragging on ciggies and jawing over life's problems. 

ESSENTIAL ELECTRONICS 

5.
iPOD U2 SPECIAL EDITION ($349) AND ULTIMATE EARS ($550) 
You too can get close to
Bono and band-mates with a limited edition iPod engraved with autographs and a $50 coupon that can be used for the $150 downloadable box set The Complete U2. And take a cue from Britney Spears: Soak up sound with custom-fitted earphones modeled on impressions of your ear canal (made by a hearing aid center or audiologist). The price is steep, but the sound quality is stunning. 

1.CD CONFESSIONS USHER ($ 18.98) 
American Music Awards champ Usher, the
flyest of the fly, has beefed up his 6 million-selling album—2004's biggest smash—with this special edition. It features four new songs, including "My Boo," his duet with Alicia Keys, as well as a hip-hopping remix of his No. 1 hit "Confessions Part II." Now everybody say "Yeah!" 

DVD ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND ($29.98) 
The rubber-faced Jim
Carrey gets serious in this edgy film about a loser who hires a team of dicey scientists to expunge his painful memories of ex-squeeze Kate Winslet. Things start getting weird when he decides he wants to bag the project while he's being reprogrammed. Also starring Kirsten Dunst and Mark Ruffalo; screenplay by Charlie Kaufman (Being John Malkovich). 

OLDMAN'S GUIDE to OUTSMARTING WINE BY MARK OLDMAN ($18) 
Glib and unpretentious (sort of like a Gallo Chardonnay),
Oldman—a 30ish charmer who was an attorney before he became a wine geek—decodes wine-tasting lingo and shows how to spot a bargain bottle in this fresh, funny guide to the world of Merlot and Meursault. Wine-wise celebs, such as rapper Ludacris and author Jay McInerney, pitch in with their tips too. 

CD WITH THE LIGHTS OUT NIRVANA ($59.98) 
Hallelujah! Things will smell like teen spirit all over again thanks to the grungiest gift of the season—a long-awaited box set that the irrepressible Courtney Love and the surviving members of Nirvana have been sparring over for years. These three
CDs, packing 68 (!) previously unreleased tracks, along with a DVD featuring never-before-seen-concert, rehearsal and studio-recording footage, comprise an intoxicating time-capsule for Kurt Cobain-heads. 

CD O-
GÊNIO: RAY CHARLES LIVE IN BRAZIL, 1963 ($14.99) 
Six months after his death, the timeless Ray Charles is hotter than ever: His final CD, 
Genius Loves Company, is being snapped up at music stores, and his biopic, Ray, has taken off at the box office. Now Charles gets more posthumous props with this DVD capturing a 1963 performance in São Paolo, Brazil (O-Gênio means "The Genius" in Portuguese). Hear him sing "What'd I Say" and "Hit the Road Jack" and bask in the cool-cat vibe all over again. 

AUDIOBOOK CHRONICLES VOLUME ONE BY BOB DYLAN, READ BY SEAN PENN ($29.95) 
An iconoclastic Oscar-winner gives a riveting reading of the new memoir by rock-iconoclast Bob Dylan. The six-CD set includes the unabridged text, which focuses on the storied Greenwich Village folk scene in the '60s but also covers Dylan's early years playing in coffeehouses in Minnesota. There's also a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the recording sessions for the 1989 album Oh Mercy in New Orleans. 

DVD THE UP SERIES ($99.95) 
This groundbreaking serial-documentary by director Michael
Apted is strangely addictive. Beginning in 1964 with Seven Up, Apted followed a group of 14 English schoolchildren at home and at school, chronicling their small victories and deeply felt defeats. Every seven years, Apted caught up with the group in a new documentary. Over the decades he has caught every surprising, sometimes heartbreaking twist in their lives. In this package: Apted's audio commentary for 42 Up, the latest installment. 

CD FRANZ FERDINAND FRANZ FERDINAND ($18.95) 
These sharp-dressing
postpunkers are the coolest thing to come out of Scotland since Sean Connery. An expanded limited-edition version of their 2004 self-titled debut, this 2-disc set features four new tracks, a rerecording of the grooving "This Fire," as well as their hit "Take Me Out." It all rocks. 

DVD SEINFELD, SEASONS 1 THROUGH 3 ($119.95) 
This long-awaited eight-disc box set is definitely
splurgeworthy: It includes 40 episodes, along with the requisite deleted scenes, more of Jerry's stand-up, a gag reel and commentary from the cast and crew. Perfect for Festivus.
