meercat//"cats_meow"
Meercats worldwide, step to the challenge: can you strike a better pose than your evolutionary cousin? Meercat (the lady) has really raised the bar on this one, so don’t just presume that because the members of your species are nature’s posers, you’ll surpass her skills. Meercats, are you listening? No? Oh, when will they get broadband in the Kalahari…

arrabella//"beadazzled"
Every girl has gone through her phase of making beaded friendship bracelets for all and sundry, and Arrabella kept her supplies in case the occasion ever presented itself again. This time, though, she’s making it for a one and only best buddy. ‘Girl’s best friend’ indeed.

ericathekiwi//"violetta"
We don’t care what anyone says – Kiwis are cool. And if you don’t believe us, let Erica be New Zealand’s Ambassador to ISM (and therefore, the world!). If she’s not cool, then we’re not the finest collectors of nude portraits on the web, and, well, we are. So there.

alisha_x//"saccharine"
A delicious sugarshock from our regular London contributor today. Alisha_x has been haunting these pages beautifully since 2005 and always comes through with a fresh idea. Devour this eye candy then drop into the Forum where she lurks frequently, and loves to talk about her shoots and all sorts of other stuff.

phoeniks//"simplyred"
Phoeniks has chosen the boldest of colours with which to represent herself. This is more than just an aesthetic choice – it’s also your statement about who she is and what she’s here to achieve. Knowing that she’s a self-described sensualist, you should be able to fill in the blanks from here…

tom_boi//"golden_boi"
Identity is something that never stops forming and re-forming, no matter where we are in our personal chronologies, and Tom_boi is a brilliant example of that. From bound boi to drummer boi to biker boi, she is overwhelmingly herself, and few truly have the guts to be just that.

isako//"intricacies"
Small-framed and bright-eyed Isako makes us think tiny candy hearts and matchstick citiscapes and other delicately beautiful things. She’s not as fragile as she looks, but we’re still feeling like elephants in the China shop, bumbling around in her presence.

cobain//"bubblesque" Video
Just in case anyone was feeling tense about it, only earth-happy, bioedgradable, grey-water safe soaps were used in Cobain's orb-making adventure. She'd never sully the beauty of something like this with just any dish soap. Soak up the last of the joy as she does the last of the sun.

kiikii//"helix"
Kiikii curves in all the right places, and is pretty crafty at choosing the angles that best highlight her bodyscape. Such curvilinear geometries leave their arcs in our heads and the sharp edges of the world around us are hardly perceptible.

filippa//"decrescendo"
Ah, the romance: a glass of red, an acoustic guitar, and Filippa. It’s the best relaxation technique since the White Light Visualisation, and way more grounded in reality.

hyperballad//"cliche"
In the immortal words of Skin from Skunk Anansie: "It takes blood and guts to be this cool, but I'm still just a cliche." - Hyperballad

mur//"non_sequitur"
Absurd is the word in Mur’s debut, where boys are girls and warbled music blares from stuffed ghetto blasters. If her folio is a contemplation on anything, it’s what happens when you jump into a river wearing a toilet-paper dress. We appreciate her attempt to restore chaos to this ordered world of ours.

tita_sin//"n_cream"
Berries ‘n cream, cakes ‘n cream, Tita ‘n cream – it’s like the dessert menu in an American diner. Tita, of course, is a special – you can’t always get her, but when you can, there’s a line out the door. Clean your plate, or there’ll be no seconds. Y’hear?

cooper//"spinnerette"
A lady with a vinyl collection has become a rarity, making such ladies all the more precious, both for the sustainability of the format and for our senses of nostalgia. We can just imagine Cooper sitting down to a vegan feast with her besties, ‘Forever in Blue Jeans’ crackling out from the stereo, and we’re wishing we could be at the table too.

cassie//"pinkcheeks"
Pink and grey are the best colour combination, one that we’ve seen on Cassie more than once, so naturally this particular folio was coming. It’s a cheeky use of thematic colour, but she’s always willing to take her ‘cheek’ one step further.
