Adele Faces The Music For Elle

Thanks to amazing genes and some soft backlighting, Adele glows on the May cover of Elle magazine.
The Oscar winner plays up the romance for the Women In Music issue in a black lace dress and low ponytail, her dark, smoky eyes emitting a smoldering gaze.
Another shot finds her staring wistfully at a vintage-looking microphone, possibly getting ready to belt out a pitch-perfect note.
We’re really feeling this story!
It makes us wanna grab a table at a smoke-filled jazz club and listen to velvet-voiced crooners all night!
We hope there are some more pics where these came from!
