Gwen Stefani Gives Us the Blues on the Cover of Elle UK’s October Issue (Forum Buzz)

Also like Rosie’s cover, the styling leaves something to be desired. “Horrendous styling!” VogueDisciple93 declared. “That Peter Pilotto top does not belong with that McQ skirt.”

“Lovely to see Gwen gracing the cover once again, but I don’t know why they didn’t go with the whole McQ outfit rather than mixing and matching,” glitterpeacock commented. “The blue text and white background is far too similar to September’s. It’s just… lazy.”

The cover itself isn’t so bad. The blue works with the image, but the problem lies in the repetition as they used the same color scheme just last month. The styling could definitely use some work. I get that they were trying to be quirky and creative, fitting two British brands on the cover, but they would have been far more successful had they gone with a head-to-toe look from either designer. Here are the Fall 2012 runway looks for reference:

Just imagine Gwen wearing either one of these full looks on the cover. So much better, right?
