anja's ankles

At first look, I loved this Emmanuelle Alt-styled photo from Vogue Paris. I grinned when I noticed the older women leaning over to check out Anja Rubik's legs. Of course, I took a double look at Anja's legs, but I was a little grossed out. They are so thin! Her legs don't look as thin in the other photos, but man, oh man, just look at her left leg ankle. Eww.

There is something to be said of a healthy 10 pounds.

agreed! i'd rather have an extra 10 (or 15, ahem) than look like Skeletor!

You know, I read this and pulled up my jeans to check out my ankles. Mine are not bad when I compare them to this picture.

I think she looks fine. Cankles over long lean model legs...are you kidding?

i do agree that she should gain a few pounds, but if she's happy looking like that...Then I say, 'let her be'.

I am glad you said that cause it's the first thing that struck me. I think there is such a thing as too thin. Models are starting to go to the dark side of "thin"
