Alber Elbaz features 18-year-old singer and YouTube sensation Maxine Ashley in his Lanvin SS12 video campaign, and the result is kind of amazing.
The song in the video is called “Cookie Man” and will be featured on her upcoming album, produced by Pharrell (who also apparently discovered her online- whoa).
But for now, check out the internet phenom here and prepare to be blown away.

We couldn’t spot Rooney Mara with her family at the Super Bowl yesterday, but we do enjoy this red carpet shot from the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
Rooney’s wearing a forest green Louis Vuitton dress and shoes from their pre-fall collection.
We love the color, the cute little ponytail -

If you’re into the look, try J. Crew’s Selma dress in green taffeta for a similar vibe.
If you’re into the photo, check out the neatly-named source, beauty is diverse.
We love French photographer Lise Sarfati because she doesn’t sugarcoat things, as we’ve seen from her past exhibits like the gritty roadtrip saga The American Series.
Now she’s upped the ante with her latest project She, which follows sisters Christene and Gina and their daughters Sloane and Sasha through the tough parts of being a girl.
With themes like isolation and identity running through the series, Sarfati proves that growing up isn’t exactly pretty.
But then again, that’s what makes her work all the more amazing.

Fact: it’s impossible to go anywhere in New York without bumping into someone with a Fjallraven backpack.
But if you want to stand out from the sea of kids in the Swedish brand’s signature square daypacks, here’s an alternative.
The new “Numbers” collection has a studier feel with leather straps and tons of room for all your stuff.
And while it would be the perfect thing for a weekend hiking trip, let’s be honest: it would work just as well pounding the city sidewalks.
So mark you calendar for March 1 when they arrive online, and get it before everyone else.
