Regitze Chhristensen Gets Her Beach Vibe On, Lensed By Michael Falgren For Elle Croatia
Model Regitze Christensen is center stage beach babe, styled by Maria Angelova in a striking mix of bikinis, retro two-pieces, tiny shorts and tops from Marysia, Alexander McQueen, Seafolly and more. Photographer Michael Falgren flashes the summer beauty for Elle Croatia's July 2017 cover story.
Top model Edie Campbell moves forward the Vogue Paris August 2017 issue animal obsession. For me the issue sends a confusing message because all the animals are domesticated and blended into the fashion messages. So I honestly have no idea what Emmanuelle Alt's positive point is that doesn't fall into the "make circus pets of nature's great animals" -- a message that is diametrically opposed to the majority of fashion readers, if not Alt herself. I don't mean to be rude, but I just don't get the point-of-view of the August issue at all.
On a positive note, Karim Sadli beings striking imagery of Edie to Vogue Paris, with styling by Aleksandra Woroniecka for 'La Belle et la Bête '.

Gisele Bündchen & Friends Cozy Up With Fake Fur By Inez & Vinoodh For Vogue Paris August 2017
My first thought was that the August 2017 issue of Vogue Paris is devoted to women and their pets. Apparently the issue tries to reach a higher bar, promoting cover star Gisele Bündchen in 'Chic animals and faux fur'. This editorial tag line is focused on the fashion connection, imo. Gisele is an ardent environmentalist, but other models like Doutzen Kroes are far better known as spokespeople for wildlife conservation.
Inez & Vinoodh capture Gisele and friends in a series of truly uninspiring images in which animals are blurry extensions of the fake-fur laden women who own them. What might be a fine idea in terms of intention probably falls flat in execution, confined by the clearly-defined limits of Vogue Paris editor-in-chief Emmanuelle Alt's own imagination.
NEW YORK DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMAN CAROLYN MALONEY IS INTERVIEWED BY TODAY IN 2014 WITH ROOMMATES DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMEN DEBBIE WASSERMAN SCHULTZ OF FLORIDA AND TERRI SEWELL OF ALABAMA AT HER HOME IN WASHINGTON, DC. MALONEY'S HUSBAND CLIFTON MALONEY DIED IN 2009 MOUNTAIN-CLIMBING IN TIBET.
New York Congresswoman Democrat Carolyn Maloney's Manhattan district includes Trump Tower, making Maloney the primary advocate who is personally lobbying Trump himself and his senior administration officials to support legislation that would finally birth a Smithsonian museum dedicated to women's history on the National Mall.
Politico writes that Maloney was handing out folders of material on the museum, handing them out to Trump and his (few) top female advisors at a congressional picnic in June.
“I talked to Ivanka about it, I talked to Melania about it, I talked to Karen Pence about it, I talked to Kellyanne [Conway] about it,” Maloney said. “I handed it directly to the president and he said he would read it. I asked Kellyanne for advice on how to approach it. She said to talk to the president directly, she said she would not do it on my behalf.”
Maloney said she had another chance to bond with Conway on the dance floor last weekend at a star-studded party at Washington doyenne Lally Weymouth’s Hamptons summer home. “I thought, ‘Hey, this is my chance to lobby her,’” Maloney said of the party, which was also attended by George Soros, Steven Spielberg, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, among others. “I kept working her over.”
In 2014, President Obama approved the creation of a commission to evaluate the need and feasibility for creating the women's history museum, whose funding would come from private donors and not taxpayers.
“Right now, we’re only ten months into our brand new African-American Museum, and our next big capital project is a complete revitalization of the Air and Space Museum, which will be $650 million,” said Smithsonian spokeswoman Linda St. Thomas. “It would be very difficult for us to handle a new building right now.”
More feasible than a stand-alone women’s museum, St. Thomas said, was doing “a better job of telling the story of women’s history” across the existing museums. There's little doubt that a Hillary Clinton administration would be more receptive to a women's history museum.
In May 2017 Elle touched base with Maloney, who has served in the House since 1992 as part of the largest female contingent ever voted into the DC House of Representatives. Maloney, a life-long advocate of women's rights quickly bonded with then 10-term Democrat Patricia Schroeder who tells the story of her own arrival in DC. "Congress "is about Chivas Regal, thousand-dollar bills, Learjets, and beautiful women," one of Schroeder's male colleagues told her upon her arrival. "Why are you here?" Read on at Elle to learn more about Rep. Carolyn Maloney's women's-history-rich story.

Trump Administration Seeks To Put Women Back Into An Ozzie & Harriet World
"The data comes from the White House’s annual report to Congress, which was released Friday, and which shows the salary of each employee. To calculate the gender pay gap, economist Mark Perry compared the median salary of male staffers ($115,000) to the median salary for female staffers ($72,650). Initially, media outlets reported a significantly smaller disparity, but their numbers were incorrectly based on mean rather than median salaries.
As the Washington Post reports, the 37-percent gap is more than double the national 17-percent gender pay gap, and it’s wider than the national gender pay gap in 1980, as reported by Pew Research..

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) is a creature of habit on July 4, marching now for 15 years in Eastport, Maine to celebrate America's day of independence. Collins was celebrated by this small town of 1,331 citizens and their children, cheered for her principled stand against repealing the Affordable Care Act.
“There was only one issue. That’s unusual. It’s usually a wide range of issues,” Collins said in an interview after the parade. “I heard, over and over again, encouragement for my stand against the current version of the Senate and House health-care bills. People were thanking me, over and over again. ‘Thank you, Susan!’ ‘Stay strong, Susan!’ ”
