Naomi Campbell shows us why she’s still a Super in the Pinko campaign

Naomi Campbell looks absolutely amazing in the new campaign for Pinko.

It’s not hard to see why she’s been modelling for 25 years, and is still as in-demand as ever.

The shots are for the Italian brand’s Autumn/Winter campaign.

Looking at the images it’s hard to believe that she is 42 years old, just where are her wrinkles?

She may have come under scrutiny recently when pictures of her surfaced with her receding hairline, but you wouldn’t think it was the same person from these photographs.

Do you think Naomi still has a place in the industry?

 

Christian Louboutin searches for new star

Christian Louboutin has teamed up with Martini to launch a search for the next female face of the iconic alcoholic brand.

The next face of MARTINI will follow in the footsteps of Charlize Theron, Nicollette Sheridan and Monica Bellucci and, in addition to possibly having the best job in world, will also receive €150,000 (approximately £120,000), 12 pairs of Christian Louboutin shoes and a year’s worth of designer outfits.

Like the new MARTINI Royale drink, made with 50% MARTINI Bianco and 50% MARTINI Prosecco, the perfect candidate will have to demonstrate she has the right amount of style and, importantly, sparkle… The judges will be looking for a girl with a great attitude who is prepared to grab life’s opportunities. She will have to embody ‘LUCK IS AN ATTITUDE’, MARTINI’s philosophy, which runs throughout the brand history promoting playfulness and encouraging everyone to live life to the full.

Christian Louboutin was selected as the MARTINI Royale Casting international judge because of his own iconic status in the world of fashion. In their twenty years of existence, Louboutin’s enchanting shoes have firmly stamped their signature on an era. Instantly recognisable by the trademark red soles, they appear everywhere that stylish and elegant women can be found.

“I am pleased to be a part of the judging panel for The Martini Royale Casting, and joining an iconic brand such as MARTINI on their search. Their philosophy of LUCK IS AN ATTITUDE is similar to my own personal motto in life – why not? – and I look forward to finding the woman who exemplifies both these maxims,” says Christian Louboutin.

Hailed as a rising star in her own right, Josephine de la Baume is heading up the UK judging panel.  On looking for a new MARTINI star, she comments; “She must demonstrate her own style and show that she has a sparkling personality, or a little Je ne sais quoi”.  Josephine herself grabs life’s opportunities; having established herself as both a successful actress and singer in three of the world’s chicest cities; London, Paris and New York.

From the morning of 24th May any woman over 25 years old can enter the MARTINI global casting at www.facebook.com/MARTINI, where they will be required to upload a short video describing why they should be the next MARTINI star. However for those in London they can join in the party atmosphere at the Design Museum on the 23rd May, try a new delicious MARTINI Royale and even be the lucky girl to win a pair of Christian Louboutin shoes for just turning up on the night!

The MARTINI Royale Casting will run across 25 countries from Brazil to Spain, South Africa to Italy. Christian Louboutin, alongside a high profile judging panel, will choose the successful winning candidate in October 2012.


Natalia Vodianova’s 6-year-old daughter taking the modelling world by storm

Natalia Vodianova’s daughter has begun her modelling career at the tender age of 6.

The supermodel’s daughter is most definitely following in her mother’s footsteps and looking at this image it would be a mistake not to.

Neva is Natalia’s second child – she has two boys too, Lucas, 10 and Viktor, 5 – and we can instantly see that she has a connection with the camera.

Which is not surprising when you consider her blood like and the fact that she has already posed with her mother a few times for Vogue.  It’s all in a days work for her.

The red dress she is modelling has been created in aid of her mother’s Naked Heart Foundation Charity.

The dress is also available in adult sizes and was designed by Eva Karayiannis of the childrenswear label Caramel Baby + Child. A favourite of Harper Beckham.

Edie Campbell becomes the face of Fullcircle

Edie Campbell has notched another campaign, fronting FullCircle’s 2012advertisments.

The British model has been making waves in the fashion industry.

Moving from Burberry, Edie’s laid back effortless style, beauty, charm and keen interest in art made her the perfect face for the campaign, they explain.

Ever since she was first cast by Mario Testino for British Vogue for a story about up and coming Londoners whilst still at school, Edie has become synonymous with modern British elegance and artistic style.

She’s been spotted on the arm of Britain’s A-List rock glitterati, divides her time between modelling for the likes of Burberry, Anya Hindmarch, Marc Jacobs and now Fullcircle, studying History of Art, and horse racing.

This is definitely a face that we’re going to be seeing more and more of. And this is certainly something to be thankful of – she has great sidewalk style.

The FullCircle collection is equally as chic this season using the traditional attributes of Asia as the core muse for design choices, it embraces delicate femininity featuring sheer fabrics, muted tones and hints of florals that combine with Japanese prints and design.

Highlights include a hand drawn bird print range featuring a chiffon jumpsuit and pussy bow blouse. You’ll also discover pops of colour with bold splashes of orange and pink on a variety of styles, providing a real sense of summer to the range.

Abbey Clancy’s lips – the verdict

Abbey Clancy has been pictured in recent weeks supporting a distinctly fuller pout and she’s been using it to full effect on the red carpets.

Her recent trip to Dubai, or more recently wearing Giles to the British FashionAwards this week, the mum-of-one sent tongues wagging about whether or not she’s had a little surgery to enhance her pout.

Lisa Littlehales, lead nurse counsellor at The Harley Medical Group, gives her say on the models new appearance:

“I would say that Abbey Clancy has definitely had fillers recently in her lips, as they are much fuller and pronounced – probably in the last couple of days.

“Looking back at pictures of Abbey when she was 18 years old she had a much thinner top lip. Since them, it looks like she regularly has filler in both her bottom and top lip which has created a fuller looking pout.”

Whether she has or not – there’s no doubt that Peter Crouch’s wife still looks stunning.

Lisa continues: “It’s very important for patient’s to ensure they visit a responsible provider, who will always counsel the patient to ensure they don’t go over the top with treatment and overuse what should be an effective product with great results.

“A good place to find a provider is on the Independent Healthcare Advisory Services (IHAS) website, which lists responsibile, professional and full-trained providers. Achieving a balanced lip shape which suits your face shape is key to ensure you look and feel confident.”

Karly’s Christmas Blog : Its Christmasssss!

It’s always at this time of year that you stop and think, “This year has gone so fast!’” And for me, it most certainly has!

It usually hits you on Christmas Day when you have a belly full of turkey and a moment to sit, relax and look back on the 365 days of happy, sad and exciting moments you have had over the past year.

My year began with a huge turning point in my life, I decided to go back to Australia where I’d spent six months of 2010 in the gorgeous city of Melbourne… I was looking to find myself and a ‘new beginning.’ After Big Brother I had made a few bad decisions but after cutting them out of my life, my decision to move to Australia really turned my life around in the most positive way possible!

It was then that FemaleFirst approached me to write a column for them, of course I was delighted and have been writing for them ever since, I began with my travel tales of OZ and what projects I was getting up to over there – I managed to continue my modelling, audition for a part in a major movie and bagged a job at the Formula 1!

Most importantly though, throughout my time there I was able to find myself again, my confidence came back and I had the most important person to share it all with me; my lovely boyfriend *who remains nameless.* All you need to know is he is GORGEOUS, and the most amazing person I have ever known.

When we returned to the UK, I started my own business with my friend Julia who I met when we both featured in FHM a few years ago. The business was a complete success and with my busy schedule Julia decided to go solo and her own hair extension business named JUM has taken off brilliantly this year, I am very proud of her. We have had a fantastic time together and are looking forward to the fun in 2011 – It’s very important to have good, loyal friends around, and this year, for once, I was surrounded by them.

In September I got signed to new management, Exclusive Press and Publicity, which was really exciting for me. They have some very exciting projects lined up for me in 2011 so of course – like half of the UK population -  one of my New Years resolutions is to hit that gym and get photoshoot ready so you guys (and girlies) can see me back in those magazines again! I also plan to travel to at least four new destinations next year, and of course a move back to Australia is on the cards!

To sum this year up I can honestly say it has been one of the most positive years of my life, I have loved every second of it and plan to be even more successful next year! It’s not about how much you have in life, or possessions or money, I have learned the only way to experience true happiness and live a fulfilled life is to surround yourself by the people you love and the people who love you.

I want to take this time to wish all my followers a very Merry Christmas, and hope you all have an AMAZING new year!

2011 BRING. IT. ON!!!!!!!

Naomi Campbell Wanted For ANOTHER Assault

Naomi Campbell really needs to learn to control her temper as she’s wanted by police after being accused of yet another assault!

The supermodel – who is well known for throwing mobile phones at people and getting cross with good old British Airways – is not in the sights of her driver, who has accused the stroppy clothes horse of hitting him in the face as he drove her through New York!

Personally we’d wait until we were pulled over in a safe stopping place before having words with a driver – doesn’t Naomi realise that she could have caused a huge car crash with her diva behaviour?

Either way, the driver was okay enough to pull over and call the police, which prompted Naomi to flee the scene – although ‘flee’ is probably the wrong word as she wouldn’t be running very fast in those ridiculous heels she wears – and she’s still on the run.

Do YOU think Naomi is a good role model for kids wanting to get into modelling, or should she pack her designer bags and take a career on the market selling clothes?

Kate Moss: “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” WHAT!?

Kate Moss might be a role model to many a woman, but after hearing what her motto in life is… I’m starting to think she should stick to refusing to do media interviews!

Ms Moss was asked by beauty website WWD what her motto for life is, and Kate replied with the jaw-dropping response; “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels, that’s one of them.” Erm…has she never had warm chocolate fudge cake with cream?

What a healthy message to share with the world… and to think we’re trying to convince girls that size zero isn’t cool,  and that we should embrace who we are as women, rather than trying to get the skeletal look before we’re six feet under.

Asked how she defines beauty, Kate explains, “I think that if you’re beautiful inside, it shows on the outside for sure. You can be a pretty face, but if you’re not a nice person, it just doesn’t work. I’m not traditionally a beauty, but apparently people think I’m all right. If you’re a nice person, it definitely helps.”

After seeing Lady GaGa having a fake jutting out spine for her latest music video, do you really think we’re sending the right message here ladies?

Agyness Deyn Is Fashion Queen

Did anyone see Agyness Deyn on Jonathan Ross the other week??  She’s even cooler than I realised…..She came across as very modest and genuine and seemed to be just generally having a damn good time and making the most of the oppurtunities shes been given…..plus she looked amazing in the dress Henry Holland knocked up for.

Reports around this week are tipping Agyness as the new Kate Moss (something we said months ago!) but we think that might be under-selling her potential a bit. Agyness has got real star quality and is very likeable….that’s something Kat always lacked. There’s no denying Miss Moss was a fab model but these days you gotta be able to work it off the catwalk too…Agyness definitely has the edge when it comes to being admired because of her personality and her unique style rather than who she knows and what VIP lists shes on.
