I really love the name "Chelsea": it automatically brings to mind "Chelsea Girl." I hope you love your name if you're a Chelsea.
My print copy of issue #2 of Chelsea magazine arrived in the mail last week, which was so exciting (although if you follow me on Twitter, you may know that I've been talking about it for a while). It's the clever & pretty magazine companion to the excellent Cat Party blog, with beautiful fashion spreads (one called "Heaven's Gate" is especially great -- a few images are below), horoscopes, and hilarious articles. The interview with Susien and Nic from Lover was so charming, and now my hankerin' to see a psychic is stronger than ever. Also, it came with some buttons, including Stevie Nicks and Sweet Valley High ones -- pretty amazing. Best of all, it has fashion drawings of cats by Elizabeth Moch.
RECOMMENDED! You can preview the issue on the website, or order a copy for 15 bones through the website. Here are a few additional images from the issue.

ReplyDeleteChelsea looks so good. I will have to order a copy on payday. It was the Sweet Valley High button that sold me. I've been thinking about that series lately. Did you ever see the television show?

ReplyDeleteI shall have to check this out! I love the read about Linda Pheracs. If you have not heard her music, she is a must to listen to. Especially if you like folk/folk rock. She has a beautiful voice! Sorry to write a novel, but her album "Parallelograms" is one of my favs!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all of your posts!
Ha! I like this post, of course:)
ReplyDeleteWow, those images are so beautiful! I am going straight to the Chelsea website & buying a copy right now. And I then I will definitely have to post about it, too. It's too inspiring not to! Thanks, Anabela, for giving us this great tip off :)
ReplyDeleteChelsea has always been a point of inspiration for me as well. The name reminds me, actually, of "Chelsea Morning" by Joni Mitchell. I don't subscribe, so thanks for sharing the spreads.
ReplyDeleteSarah--So glad I found another Linda Perhacs fan! She is incredible, I was so stoked that I got to interview her. She was a total trip!
