MOST Magazine Fashion MAY-JUNE'15 ISSUE NO.9 | Page 6
e are beginning the season
of celebrations. In the US,
we celebrate our Mothers in
May with their special day. June brings
graduates to slap on the back and of
course Father’s Day to honor our dads.
In light of Mothers Day, we want to
recognize the mothers that are behind
our wonderful staff and contributors here
at MOST Magazine. I want to start with
recognition of my beautiful mother, Maryam
Habashian. She has been selfless in her
love for me, and her artistic passions
continually inspire me.
We would like to ask ours and your
moms: Please stand up and dip a curtsey:
Maryam Habashian, Raedine Schroeder,
Amy Price (two curtsies), Jennifer Davis,
Elizabeth Fyne-Nsofor, Cheri Bloom,
Julia Watts, Mary Tharp, Cristina de Jave,
Sandhya Ghangrekar, Miriam Jave,
Tammy Thomson, Molly Reardon and
Bernadine Jones.
The characteristics that our
mothers genetically pass on or foster in
us may be those that make us artistic,
curious, dedicated and responsible even
imaginative. As you start reading through
this issue, there are so many outstanding
photographs that we hope will stir your
imagination. There is an ethereal, dreamy,
fairy-tale feel that floats through the pages.
It is amazing how the photographers this
month lead us to escape, imagine, dream.
I hope in your mind you can add a story
with the wonderful variety of shots, if you
can, please share them with us on any of
our social media pages, we love to hear
from our readers.
It is our great pleasure to recognize
the beautiful Laura Vandervoort who is our
cover star. Ms. Vandervoort plays Elena
Michaels on “Bitten” and passionately
supports animal rights with various
organizations. Speaking of bitten,
we talked with the fierce British chef
Silvena Rowe. We have the classiest
part of Dumb and Dumber, the versatile
and talented legend Lauren Holly. Ms.
Holly tells us about her new clothing
collection, “Lauren’s Closet” and even
shows off how beautiful they are.
