While some of you may be scratching your heads and going "What in the heck is Ferocia talking about?!" let me clarify by saying what I said above makes perfect sense; <b>AND</b> that <b>Julianne Hough</b>, <b>Proactiv</b> spokesperson <i>really actually uses the products</i>!

Well, only because I sat down and listened to her talk about it! Myself (along with a gaggle of other bloggers and editors) were invited to have a little chit-chat with the <i>Dancing With The Stars</i> dancer (which basically means you're allowed to ask her anything!) While I do admit that I'm not like a <i>huge</i> fan of Julianne, I did love her outfit, sweet disposition and that super cute dog of hers! (Outfit consisted of a <b>David Meister</b> dress and <b>Salvatore Ferragamo</b> heels and dog is a cavalier king charles named Lexi.) </div><div><br /></div><div>One of the first things out of Julianne's mouth is that she's always had an ongoing battle with acne. </div><div><br /></div><div>"I felt like everyone was looking at my zits, not looking at my eyes so it hurt my self esteem a little bit," she said. </div><div><br /></div><div>Julianne described how her lifestyle of sweating up a storm while dancing and wearing a ton of makeup made her adapt a strict cleansing routine to clear her skin. She also said that getting in the routine of using Proactiv daily helped her to effectively get rid of her acne. (Can you even believe that she called the company herself to tell them that the stuff really works and thank them?!) </div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXo-dV31iVn6eEjN-4is-_p7ile2dYsgRGQz90q6oeGzyOkPsUbczP9rom2pIyLW9gjdC8ehFGeU94aRK4UwmHKPlsPAA52T9GIYPINZZZ4RluT8TFTjppvNq5LoDu9i6lf8HDcyWdPVKV/s400/proactiv_juliannehough-IMG_9378.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571922191856775394" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px; " /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div>She uses the three step regimen from <b>Proactiv</b> daily but her favorite product is the Refining Mask (which also happens to be mine as well!)

Okay, okay. I know this post is totally about <b>Kim Kardashian's </b>unfortunate <b>Prince </b>moment, but I have to dish: I had another moment of my own yesterday!<br />
<br />
I was invited to cover his <a href="http://jonesmag.com/lifestyle/prince-donates-1-million-to-harlem-childrens-zone/">charity press conference</a> for the site I work for, and got these amaze candy bars with his face on them from <b>Dylan's Candy Bars</b>, and a keepsake book of his <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/day-in-life-prince-concert-couturas.html"><b>Welcome 2 America tour.</b></a><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_TaI7q5tsAaq6EZHyhNl7OytPmqC2ZBh-SSKFSE-v8csQnrUgp5SdSO2dEUdtiUIPCPYf8RgckFY_tgoptAErt9JfSE99A08rDAcVT8aNskO5HU57_7z12hbjKPNQ7eG5wBLEL5nRhE0o/s1600/prince-dylan-candy-bars-welcome-2-america-tour.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_TaI7q5tsAaq6EZHyhNl7OytPmqC2ZBh-SSKFSE-v8csQnrUgp5SdSO2dEUdtiUIPCPYf8RgckFY_tgoptAErt9JfSE99A08rDAcVT8aNskO5HU57_7z12hbjKPNQ7eG5wBLEL5nRhE0o/s320/prince-dylan-candy-bars-welcome-2-america-tour.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Even better? The press was treated to a behind-the-scenes look at his show during soundcheck! <b>Prince </b>came out in a black velvet sweatshirt, white furry boots, skinny jeans and a white hat (so casual chic) and practiced two songs with his phenomenal band. It felt exactly like those behind-the-scenes DVDs (like <b>Michael Jackson's</b> and <b>Beyonce's</b>) but live.<br />
<br />
I grew up listening to live music (everyone in my family is a musician) and all of <b>Prince's </b>hits---and never imagined one day I would see <b>Prince</b> perform them in an empty stadium literally steps away from me! It truly was a special moment that I'll never forget!<br />
<br />
The awesome concert he was gearing up for took place last night at <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/day-in-life-prince-concert-couturas.html"><b>Madison Square Garden</b></a>. <b>Cee-Lo</b> opened (how amazing!) and Prince took the MSG stage for the last time during his Welcome 2 America tour in a gold sequined jumpsuit.<br />
<br />

<br />
While performing, he called folks on the stage to dance and <b>Kim Kardashian </b>was one of his picks. In a fitted <b>Alexander McQueen </b>printed dress, she looked beautiful but when it came time to dance, she froze.<br />

LOL - I'm not mad at her for freezing. Like I said, Prince is an icon with a magical presence onstage. <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/day-in-life-prince-concert-couturas.html">At his show</a>, I cried, screamed, danced, even stopped breathing at points so I totally get it. I wouldn't freeze though, I would do the bump until my hip fell off instead.<br />
<br />
Oh - it's hilarious that before Kim comes onstage, <b>Prince </b>says she might be too sexy and when she doesn't move, he's over her. LOL, he's the man! Check the video below:<br />

Anticipation for Fall 2011 Fashion Week has reached a fever pitch. Designers are <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/02/countdown-to-fall-2011-fashion-week.html">dishing on their inspiration</a> and <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/win-it-payless-wants-to-send-you-to.html">hosting fashion week contests</a>. <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/02/breaking-beauty-news-nars-to-launch.html">NARS has announced their first-ever boutique</a> to open on Day One. And <b>Richie Rich </b>(above, in the flesh, with the Glamazons) is prepared to top all of that---well, except maybe the <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/02/breaking-beauty-news-nars-to-launch.html">NARS</a> part. And you're not surprised, are you?<br />
<br />
Fashion's rebel savant is selling, I repeat selling tickets to his fashion show. The tickets will cost you $35, and proceeds will benefit DOSomething.org and Cookies for Kids' Cancer. Love the charity angle, but has this even been done before?<br />
<br />
<div id="paragraph3">Richie Rich had this to say about his ticket buyers who are presumably attending Fashion Week for the first time via <a class=" external" href="http://fashionindie.com/interview-the-glittery-world-of-richie-rich/" target="_blank">Fashion Indie</a>: <b><span style="color: #351c75;">"It’s fun when people who haven’t experienced it get a chance to and see what it’s about. And it’s as much fun to watch the crowd as it is to watch the show."</span></b></div><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTG3dCeEKP-GvKymRmUWYnXhgjtiaPcajATba_dlwqlskjzDs1Z-HaP9X5WKwb1ScHG5bg-s5na0Ek6wRA5BhSXgvHJORUeW_iAW0FONPnXHblYc14mV0zBEvBcdcgKvu9Fjb14jPVQdtE/s1600/richie-rich-fall-2009-model.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTG3dCeEKP-GvKymRmUWYnXhgjtiaPcajATba_dlwqlskjzDs1Z-HaP9X5WKwb1ScHG5bg-s5na0Ek6wRA5BhSXgvHJORUeW_iAW0FONPnXHblYc14mV0zBEvBcdcgKvu9Fjb14jPVQdtE/s400/richie-rich-fall-2009-model.jpg" width="351" /></a></div><br />
<br />
I'm sure people will pay for it, and it'll be worth it.<br />
<br />
I remember my first <b>Richie Rich </b>show during the Fall 2009 season. There were drag queens, pretty boys, violinists, half-naked men, a <b>Pam Anderson</b> appearance, a <b>Kat Deluna </b>performance, an <b>Ice-T </b>and <b>Coco </b>sighting<b> </b>and so much more. In essence, it was a circus. And I had never felt more at home. One of my fave shows ever ever ever!<br />
<br />
So here, in short, are 5 things you'd get for your money if you bought those tickets...in addition to the fashion, of course:<br />
<br />
1. Really, really attractive attendees.<br />
<div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvELoMCFihnKWxkvfOy8zh20HnalRLBR4BbvhkIYqYu9iv2pav_kdMmeGumEIBtcGk0J8LK4u5HULFTfw7IAfOM4qjpZxlcyH6MMRgsEp18hdrsFXXT9YczfR_9ojykh9m1r0c5vLm77vB/s1600/richie-rich-fall-2009-boy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvELoMCFihnKWxkvfOy8zh20HnalRLBR4BbvhkIYqYu9iv2pav_kdMmeGumEIBtcGk0J8LK4u5HULFTfw7IAfOM4qjpZxlcyH6MMRgsEp18hdrsFXXT9YczfR_9ojykh9m1r0c5vLm77vB/s320/richie-rich-fall-2009-boy.jpg" width="239" /></a></div></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><br />
<br />
2. Musical performances---and by music, I mean pop culture (<b>Kat Deluna</b>) and classical (violinist)...also, there may or may not have been an opera singer involved.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil-KkpCQ8EK3h1pz-wib3t84e4BiX2BWYZdUhQKzpSKLs7w6pQoFUv0_sWMfMCKTlVUInXckT_dg6XYlAdZIGYEnEbCKYilrhPVi1fdZilhvBKVOB3sbpX6G9fwmpxklmvZdN6bh3wEbLa/s1600/richie-rich-fall-2009-violin-player.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="210" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil-KkpCQ8EK3h1pz-wib3t84e4BiX2BWYZdUhQKzpSKLs7w6pQoFUv0_sWMfMCKTlVUInXckT_dg6XYlAdZIGYEnEbCKYilrhPVi1fdZilhvBKVOB3sbpX6G9fwmpxklmvZdN6bh3wEbLa/s320/richie-rich-fall-2009-violin-player.jpg" width="320" /></a></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
<br />
3. No one storms the catwalk quite like a drag queen. Witness it in person.</div><div style="text-align: left;"></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCBG7LtGJsu1NKWRoJuu4Ljq_LDyaqiUpOAtmmKPmOd818ysIn5tD1Cqw9hWNZyZVxa88h4I1lnz1KsR5oqs2nokj2oZVnb2oaePneMNiIwqczow991sRaQPy0BQHXOVKWDaXaJVa6fovI/s1600/richie-rich-fall-2009.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCBG7LtGJsu1NKWRoJuu4Ljq_LDyaqiUpOAtmmKPmOd818ysIn5tD1Cqw9hWNZyZVxa88h4I1lnz1KsR5oqs2nokj2oZVnb2oaePneMNiIwqczow991sRaQPy0BQHXOVKWDaXaJVa6fovI/s320/richie-rich-fall-2009.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

As you can see, it'll be worth every dime...but <b>since when do shows charge? And will he start a precedent for fashion shows you can attend through Ticketmaster?</b><br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
<b>And would you pay to see his show? If you could pick a designer to buy tickets to, who would it be? </b>I'm sure you can guess who I'd pay to see...yep, <b>Chanel</b> hehe.<br />

Alright, so maybe I was a little bit "extra" with that title, but it's true: this product was created specifically to numb your "lady parts" in order to create a more comfortable bikini waxing experience for you (and just in time for <b><a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/02/get-sexy-guide-15-valentines-day-date.html">Valentine's Day</a></b>!).<div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5kZ3a1cqbj7RibhuVP44-_1OdkLYm3p6kPjQWsGvLdm1jJKQlpkBL75z4pqDXuLfHnesmDy6JTZdO5UmnTgdeM2X6FfRx2LEChz037suELMLObIz_Z4qj_xcZY2XcSC2gWxabz2Vdx9eH/s400/Dr.Edna+Ma_TheGlamazonsBlog+.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571296496846597858" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 400px; " /></span></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><br /></span></div><div><div>I can't even begin to tell you the number of ladies that have come to me complaining about the painfulness of their bikini wax seshes, but I'm sure the creator of this product, <b>Dr. Edna Ma, M.D. </b>(that's her pictured above...isn't she cute!?) hears it even more! (Hence she created this nifty little numbing kit.) </div><div><br /></div><div>Here's how it works: you simply rub the cream onto the parts that are getting waxed and then put on the rubbery thong underwear. (I know, sounds like a weird material (latex!) but it's not irritating or uncomfortable. I only know because I tried it on myself to see hahaha)</div><div>Then, you let the cream sit for about 30-45 minutes and remove. The numbing effect lasts for about 15-20 minutes after the cream is removed, so I suggest that you calculate in the time that it will take you to get to the waxing location so you can remove it there and then hop right onto the table. </div><div><br /></div><div>Who knew that a pain free waxing experience could be so easy to achieve? You can also use this before laser hair removal sessions as well! </div><div><br /></div><div><b>Dr. Ma</b> is a practicing Anesthesiologist and an expert at pain management, so the blue numbing cream formula she created actually really numbs! (I haven't tried it "down there" yet, but it did make the testing area that consisted of the skin on the top part of my hand numb.) </div><div>The cream contains Lidocaine, which is the most widely used anesthetic at the maximum of 4% concentration that can sold over-the-counter, as well as aloe and jojoba to soothe and moisturize the skin. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>The BareEase & Cream kit</b> retails for $24.99 and comes in two sizes, S/M and M/L. You can purchase it online at <a href="http://www.bareease.com/">barease.com</a>, select spas, salons and boutiques nationwide. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>What do you think of this product, Glamazons? Anyone out there dying to get their hands on it? Please do share your experience with the kit here after using it to let me know how it works for you! </b></div><div><br /></div><div>xo</div><div>Ferocia </div><div><br /></div></div></div>Ferociahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02610373665531915866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451931729555824430.post-81517052654975530212011-02-07T13:36:00.002-05:002011-02-07T13:38:08.634-05:00Countdown to Fall 2011 Fashion Week: Rebecca Taylor Inspiration #NYFW<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg68X3CRsCuUodQy31-b1LTkSPfhZLL9_bKuA-xAGO4jl_SmPGzBbF1BwUTVBv25TQf43738L1LxDPTzQR57gF20o1W7ASw2MgHsQVuvwzELPKP5nCd6FXTd7uc-UaxQeGRpSsCCL7qV9Qh/s1600/rebecca-taylor-fall-2011-inspiration-new-york-fashion-week.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg68X3CRsCuUodQy31-b1LTkSPfhZLL9_bKuA-xAGO4jl_SmPGzBbF1BwUTVBv25TQf43738L1LxDPTzQR57gF20o1W7ASw2MgHsQVuvwzELPKP5nCd6FXTd7uc-UaxQeGRpSsCCL7qV9Qh/s400/rebecca-taylor-fall-2011-inspiration-new-york-fashion-week.jpg" width="258" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />

</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Taylor's inspiration this season comes from the City of Lights, particularly the Parisian night clubs of the 1970's.

Some people think football and fashion don't mix, but I beg to differ and <b>Superbowl Sunday</b> is the best time to merge the two. Whether you're munching on hot wings at a house party or sipping a cosmo at a sports bar, being fashionable and chic is always an option. (Yes, even during game time!)<br />
<br />
For all of the glammed-out sports junkies, this is the game we've been waiting for. In lieu of the battle between the <b>Green Bay Packers </b>and <b> Pittsburgh Steelers </b>for the championship title in America's flagship sport we have a few style tips to take your <b><span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1296998181_0" style="border-bottom: 2px dotted rgb(54, 99, 136); cursor: pointer;">Superbowl</span> XLV</b> look trough the Red Zone and straight to touchdown territory in the End Zone.<br />

Tactile pairings and more voluminous silhouettes enhance 3-dimensionality; a scarf-cape is paired with a pleated maxi skirt in rich curry, with a jade clutch for a color burst.

If you follow my <a href="http://www.champagnecoutureandcabs.tumblr.com/">tumblr</a>, you know I was awe-inspired by the <b>American Vogue February 2011 </b>spread "The Gangs of New York" shot by <b>Mario Testino</b>. Particularly, the photo featuring up-and-coming ethnic supermodels, <b>Joan Smalls, Ajak Deng, Arlenis Sosa, Chanel Iman, Anais Mali, Jourdan Dunn </b>and<b> Sessilee Lopez </b>in<b> Rodarte</b>. The beautiful editorial took my breath away so much so I declared it my favorite spread of the year.<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
It has since been replaced. <b>Vogue Italia </b>has dedicated an entire spread to models of color entitled "The Black Allure" in the February 2011 issue. It features models <b>Ajak Deng, Aminata Niaria, Arlenis Sosa, Chanel Iman, Georgie Badiel, Joan Smalls, Jourdan Dunn, Kinee Diouf, Lais Ribeiro, Melodie Monrose, Rose Cordero </b>and of course, my fave <b>Sessilee Lopez </b>via <a href="http://www.beautyisdiverse.com/">Beauty is Diverse</a>.<br />
<br />
Shot by <b>Emma Summerton </b>and styled by ubertalent <b>Edward Enninful</b>, the shoot channels the Harlem Renaissance with all its elegance, decadence and sultry sophistication. In moody, dim lighting, the models showcase the best of the <b>Spring 2011 </b>collections including <b>Marc Jacobs</b> and <b>Versace</b>. Hair is in sensual finger waves and accessories include brilliant, glamorous jewels, elaborate turbans, wine glasses and of course, dangling cigarettes. <br />

A new star has been added to the <b>American Vogue </b>cover girl rotation: the Queen of Pop (and my personal favorite)<b> Lady Gaga</b>. Upon seeing the new cover on Twitter, I shrieked and squealed (as is a Glamazon tradition) out of delight and well, shock.<br />
<br />
<b>Lady Gaga </b>is quite rebellious, edgy and bold to join the ranks of (snore) <b>Anne Hathaway, <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/04/magazine-glam-is-sarah-jessica-parker.html">Sarah Jessica Parker</a>, Nicole Kidman, Blake Lively, Angelina Jolie, Scarlett Johansson, <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/12/magazine-glam-natalie-portman-on-cover.html">Natalie Portman</a>, Jennifer Aniston</b>, <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/08/glam-or-sham-halle-berrys-september.html"><b>Halle Berry</b></a> and the like, essentially elite Hollywood (save a celebrated <b>Beyonce</b> and <b><a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/06/michelle-obama-is-vogue-cover-girlagain.html">Michelle Obama</a> </b>moment). But this could be a sign <b>Vogue </b>is joining our pop culture obsession, and the present. SN: Rumor also has it Rihanna has an upcoming <b>Vogue </b>cover. Interesting...<br />
<br />
<br />
On her lovely cover, <b>Gaga </b>wears a <b>Haider Ackmermann </b>Spring 2011 jumpsuit in blush, inside she goes for his gown in brilliant blue.<br />

I think it's BEYOND stunning. Sure the bare makeup, pink bob and elegant jumpsuit isn't exactly typical Gaga (I mean, she's <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/09/magazine-glam-or-sham-lady-gaga-naked.html">not naked covered in meat</a> or <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/06/magazine-glam-lady-gagas-shotgun-bra-on.html">wearing a shotgun bra</a>) but it's not typical Vogue either. It seems <b>Anna Wintour </b>and <b>Lady Gaga </b>met somewhere in the middle. I would've loved something futuristic, structured and avante garde but that'd be more reminiscent of <b>Elle Magazine</b>, don't you think?<br />
<br />
Toned-down Gaganess aside, I think the cover is beautiful and am excited to see more pictures (and finally, hear <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/lady-gagas-new-song-from-house-of.html"><i>Born This Way!</i></a>). What do you think of the cover?<br />

<b>Daisy Lowe </b>and her adorable curves are giving me everything I need on the cover of <b>Asos Magazine</b>! I need those jeans to survive!!<br />
<br />
Inside, she offers some poignant commentary about the fashion industry's love/hate relationship with curves. On <b>Karl Lagerfeld </b>and <b>Crystal Renn</b>, she says: <b style="color: #20124d;"><span style="color: #20124d;">"My friend was working with </span>Crystal Renn</b> <b><b style="color: #20124d;">a</b><span style="color: #20124d;">nd said she thinks she’s only got a 38-inch hip. </span><b style="color: #20124d;">Karl Lagerfeld</b><span style="color: #20124d;"> said he was going to embrace her womanly shape and then he just put her face on the ad campaign."</span></b><br />
<br />

<br />
I applaud her for speaking out because I was totes thinking the same thing. Since <b>Crystal Renn </b>was chosen as the curvy model muse du jour, it seems said curves have <i>disappeared.<b> </b></i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2vFdilYcZba1w_eRA-OXox1fxNyS8zPUlwgvMQbR8BswbaQMoGogoQccqG4MwHbtM9uJowSWvp9BgDt__Kfv6Efl4ITi7BgFXRZSISQoqjYaBsqWlftdA1nye0EkL97LiLt7toUREu7zd/s1600/crystal-renn.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="301" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2vFdilYcZba1w_eRA-OXox1fxNyS8zPUlwgvMQbR8BswbaQMoGogoQccqG4MwHbtM9uJowSWvp9BgDt__Kfv6Efl4ITi7BgFXRZSISQoqjYaBsqWlftdA1nye0EkL97LiLt7toUREu7zd/s400/crystal-renn.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Check out her book cover and her walking in Chanel: where'd her body go? I'm all for dieting and slimming down as one sees fit, but I hate to think she did it to get more work in the modeling industry, especially since designers claimed to love her for her womanly shape.<br />
<br />
Do you think <b>Lowe</b> has a point in regard to her face only appearing in <b>Karl's</b> ads? Do you think the designer, who infamously shunned curves, is really embracing womanly figures like he claims?<br />
<br />
Discuss, and check out the rest of <b>Lowe's </b>shoot for <b>Asos </b>below:<br />

<div><div><b>Gillette Venus</b> has tapped <b>J.Lo</b> to become their first ever Global Brand Ambassador.

<div>As part of the partnership, Jennifer revealed a new rendition of the iconic song "Venus" (and no I'm not really interested in hearing her sing so I have no clue as to how it sounds but you can <a href="http://www.gillettevenus.com/en_US/goddess_central/goddess_showing/jennifer_lopez_story/index.jsp">click here</a> to listen to it) as well as launched the <b>Venus Goddess Fund For Education</b>. This fund is a new global cause that will help support female empowerment through education. </div><div>Because Jennifer believes that "there's a Goddess in every woman," she's encouraging all to "get your Goddess showing" by <a href="http://www.gillettevenus.com/en_US/goddess_central/goddess_showing/index.jsp">logging onto the Venus website</a> to share your stories. $1 will be donated to the Venus Goddess Fund For Education for each story shared. </div><div><br />
</div><div>On the site, you'll see Jennifer posing in a silver mini dress (photoshopped within an inch of her life, of course) along with this quote: "Goddess is one part inner beauty. One part outer beauty. And one part 5-inch heels." </div><div>Um....yeah.....</div><div>Beginning next month, you'll see J.Lo in print and TV ads for the brand representing a variety of Venus products, including a new <b>ProSkin razor</b> that launches this month.

<br />
Mommy-to-be <b>Mariah Carey </b>isn't letting her pregnancy slow her down. In fact, the expecting mother is gearing up to appear on <b><a href="http://www.hsn.com/mariah-carey/mariah-carey_c-mc_a-7718_xc.aspx?cm_sp=gridpromo*$CampaignName$*shopAll&ccm=mc%7C7718%7Cmc0002">HSN</a> </b>again on <b>February 11th</b> to promote <b>The</b> <b>Mariah Carey Collection</b>, which includes jewelry, shoes and perfume. <br />
<br />
For her last appearance, she was the cutest pregnant lady on the studio couch with her feet up. This time, she gets an even more comfortable locale: her home. Makes sense as she's moving closer to the due date, and those twins can't be easy to carry around all day.<br />
<br />
Speaking of the twins, <b>Mariah</b> announced she and Nick are having a boy and a girl (swoon!). How adorable! <i>P.S. Everyone doubted them as a couple but I'm so thrilled for them. It seems like they're truly happy together and Nick's going to be the most fun, playful Dad to those kids. I love it!</i><br />
<br />
Anyway, back to the collection. Of course, the jewelry is adorned with butterflies and admittedly, I'm not 100% crazy about that motif (though I loved The Butterfly album, lol).<br />
<br />
What got my attention is the footwear---<b>Mariah's </b>known for her love of heels---and the gold platform sandals and fur-lined boots are fun and glamourous. She'll also be pushing her extensive collection of fragrances, <b>Lollipop Bling, Forever, Luscious </b>and <b>M by Mariah Carey </b>during her appearance.<br />
<br />

<br />
It's rare that I find a handbag that stops my heart the way shoes do, but when I saw <b>Emmy Rossum's </b>bag for <b>Elie Tahari</b>, I died and was resurrected. The shape, the texture, the luxe material, the beautiful detailing! How sleek and elegant...and <i>roomy!</i> <br />
<br />
<b>Emmy Rossum's </b>first-ever design, the “Emmy” bucket bag is available in four sizes and comes in tan, black, white, mushroom, yellow and metallic via <a href="http://www.wwd.com/markets-news/elie-tahari-launches-emmy-rossum-handbag-3453708?browsets=1296663241488">WWD</a>. I'm sooo getting it in black (the essence of snobby NYC chic) just in time for market appointments in March! <br />
<br />
The way the design collaboration came about is just as exciting as the pieces. Tahari told <a href="http://www.wwd.com/markets-news/elie-tahari-launches-emmy-rossum-handbag-3453708?browsets=1296663241488">WWD</a>: <b><span style="color: #674ea7;">“I was talking to her about her style and I saw that she had good taste and she liked [my] bags. She’d say, ‘I wish it was this way, I wish it was like that…’ and I said, ‘You know what, Emmy? You come in and you design it like you like."</span></b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCP-0i7EexI1vGru8YwGM1O77EKVz5CnmDd_ZwSndbI3ot78WzQJaQux9Yqaunpq5_XV5JLtDgyTc_dB5bc3oaNXXFMTQ7QtDSq10vWLa1Uz6-4kPfS7PoxTOXaeWxOf8w-wqVyj0lZok5/s1600/elie-tahari-emmy-rossum.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCP-0i7EexI1vGru8YwGM1O77EKVz5CnmDd_ZwSndbI3ot78WzQJaQux9Yqaunpq5_XV5JLtDgyTc_dB5bc3oaNXXFMTQ7QtDSq10vWLa1Uz6-4kPfS7PoxTOXaeWxOf8w-wqVyj0lZok5/s400/elie-tahari-emmy-rossum.jpg" width="273" /></a></div><br />
<br />
How cool is that? I love that it wasn't your typical designer/celebrity collaboration, but instead came about organically. Of her design process, Emmy said: <b><span style="color: #674ea7;">“I thought a lot about the kind of bag I wanted: versatile, worn by the working woman in any season. It was important that it had compartments in the sides, because I hate those big bags where your iPod cord gets mixed in with your lip gloss.”</span></b> Amen! <br />
<br />
The Elie Tahari bags will be available for $398 to $798 in March at Bergdorf, Neiman and Saks. And a portion of all proceeds will go to the charity Safe Horizon. Love a philanthropic purchase!<br />
<br />
What do you think of the bag? Are you drooling over it like me?<br />

<br />
Just when you think <b>Kanye West </b>ran out of creative ideas, he does something extraordinarily weird and fascinating to remind you why he's the King of kookiness. <br />
<br />
Take his <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/09/magazine-glam-or-sham-kanye-west-writes.html"><b>XXL </b>cover</a>, where he was among the first stars to write his own cover story (as<i> </i><b>Ferocia </b>remarked, <b style="color: red;">"Is that even allowed?"</b>). Now, months later, he's topped his own odd behavior with a cover, shot by <b>Karl Lagerfeld</b>, with a real $1 bill stuffed in his mouth. Don't believe me? Check the video below of some poor magazine worker literally placing $1 bills in each issue via <a href="http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2011/02/02/video-kanye-west-by-karl-lagerfeld-for-vman/">HighSnobiety.com</a>. How's that for different?<br />
<br />
<iframe frameborder="0" height="227" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/19409382?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&color=ffffff" width="400"></iframe><br />
<a href="http://vimeo.com/19409382">Kanye West shot by Karl Lagerfeld for Vman</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user2391741">KWest</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com/">Vimeo</a>.<br />
<br />
I could totes see someone taking the $1 bills out of all the magazines at a newstand in New York City. What do you think of the novel <i>put-your-money-where-your-mouth-is</i> idea? Which Kanye cover is the <strike>weirdest</strike> best:<b> <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/09/magazine-glam-or-sham-kanye-west-writes.html">XXL</a> </b>or <b>VMan</b>?<br />

<br />
I knew this was going to be an exciting Fashion Week! On the first day of NYFW, February 10th, NARS will open the doors of its first-ever stand alone store, located in NYC. There goes my freelance writing paycheck!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNVgvyZnNe8RtChiAfb7P2va8LhdjcFBenpKHvUI40DXSYxzUvSPtm0-_Ankz2kog5wu-kUaAEp4F0U7Z_n1pA7KykxFNjLqJkz-TbS_t71x5UqBcJP74P76fVH5BHYIB_PV5K0qaLJSoW/s1600/nars.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="205" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNVgvyZnNe8RtChiAfb7P2va8LhdjcFBenpKHvUI40DXSYxzUvSPtm0-_Ankz2kog5wu-kUaAEp4F0U7Z_n1pA7KykxFNjLqJkz-TbS_t71x5UqBcJP74P76fVH5BHYIB_PV5K0qaLJSoW/s400/nars.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Located on 413 Bleecker Street (yes, by Marc Jacobs, best shopping area ever), the store will kick off with a huge celebration, which we hope will include some amaze discounts. To start, <b>Francois Nars</b> tapped famous fashion photographer, <b>Fabien Baron</b> to design a limited-edition logo for the launch via <a href="http://ny.racked.com/archives/2011/02/01/bleeckers_nars_to_launch_during_fashion_week.php">Racked.com</a>. Isn't it awesome?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0deX-xfguqVu_JkHdcoF3OSO95U88DzXELIuw0qkb_rvaAWai6KY-Ohykej-mDlqwYqEIInXXXg3rTNsDTsTGFzXXrowTQuMsAEZerOwr0RhGYGlZtrxX_GDV4flLoFGnWLBTD62-85fJ/s1600/2011_02_nars-bleecker-opening-date.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="161" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0deX-xfguqVu_JkHdcoF3OSO95U88DzXELIuw0qkb_rvaAWai6KY-Ohykej-mDlqwYqEIInXXXg3rTNsDTsTGFzXXrowTQuMsAEZerOwr0RhGYGlZtrxX_GDV4flLoFGnWLBTD62-85fJ/s400/2011_02_nars-bleecker-opening-date.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
<br />
There's more. The color scheme in the interior of the store was inspired by <b>Jungle Red</b>, one of the first NARS lipstick shades EVER (shown above). So...we're totes going to get a lifetime supply of <b>Jungle Red </b>lipstick at the opening party, right? A girl can dream.<br />
<br />
Expect more limited-edition products for the store. <b>Francois Nars</b> dished in July to <a href="http://www.wwd.com/">WWD</a>: <b><span style="color: #351c75;">"I want the store to be special and interactive. I will do special items which will only be available in the store — palettes, maybe a nail polish called Bleecker Street — and I want to sell DVDs of my favorite movies. Marc [Jacobs] may do accessories. It’s going to be great."</span></b> Indeed.<br />
<br />
Are you excited for the launch (and the other stores to come)? New Yorkers, are you running in heels to the new NARS store? <br />

Wow. From walking <b><a href="http://www.perezhilton.com/">Perez Hilton</a> </b>like a dog to simulating oral sex with a banana to "kissing" a woman tied up in her chamber, <b>Rihanna </b>truly pushes the envelope in her latest video for <b>S&M</b>, directed by <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/05/video-glam-beyonce-as-daisy-duke-in-why.html"><b>Melina</b></a>.<br />

There are plenty of memorable style moments as always like her <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/glam-or-sham-rihannas-curly-red-fro.html">red afro</a> (which looks super cute with her funky outfit when she's tied up and squirming), her <b>Prada </b>stole, the blue mascara she wears with <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/rihanna-s-video-sneak-peek-whips.html">that latex outfit </a>and the newspaper gown (reminds me of <i>Sex and the City's </i><b>Carrie's </b>iconic dress).<br />
<br />
<br />

</a></div>That gown in particular appears in one of the first scenes where covered in plastic, <b>Rihanna</b> is forced to host a press conference and phrases "Daddy Issues" "Slut" and "Barbados" flash across the screen. By the end, she's successfully turned the tables, making the press her prisoners. Pretty cool concept. <br />

The other "oooh" and "ahhh" of the night from me came when I saw the gorge <b>Mila Kunis</b> step onto the red carpet at the <b>17th Annual SAG Awards </b>in an <b>Alexander McQueen </b>dress from the <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/glam-slam-michelle-obama-in-alexander.html">Resort 2011 collection.</a><br />

Of course, she was rocking her <a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2011/01/get-look-mila-kunis-sexy-smokey-eye-at.html">signature sexy smokey eye</a>, but the hair is what caught my attention! Someone should definitely sign her up to be a new <b><a href="http://www.glamazonsblog.com/2010/12/holiday-gift-guide-2010-sexy-beauty.html">Victoria's Secret</a></b> model because she's got that "Bombshell Angel Hair" look down! Wouldn't you agree? Well, lucky for you, I got these great tips from her hairstylist for that night, <b>TRESemme</b> Celebrity Stylist <b>Mara Roszak</b>, so you can create this look for yourself at home! <br />
<div><br />
</div><div>-Apply <b>TRESemme 24 Hour Body Foaming Mousse</b> to clean, wet hair. </div><div>-Part the hair slightly off-center and blow dry with a medium-sized round brush.</div><div>-Curl in sections with a 1" barrel curling iron and then break up the curls with fingertips to create stunning waves. </div><div>-Spray all over with <b>TRESemme TRES Two Extra Hold Hairspray</b> so the style lasts throughout the night! </div><div><br />

Now if there was one thing that bored me to tears Sunday night it was definitely the <b>17th Annual</b> <b>SAG Awards</b> show. [insert yawn here] However, there were a couple of stand-out beauty looks that made me go "oooo" and "ahhh" and <b>Hilary Swank's</b> was most definitely one of them. Not only did she look amazing in that champagne-colored <b>Versace</b> gown (<i>Side note: her bod is beyond banging! She confessed to E!'s Giuliana on the red carpet that she works out at least 4 times a week mostly because she actually loves doing it. Sigh. If only I could develop an attitude like that!</i>) but her hair and makeup were to die for. Her look reminds me of a 1960's pin-up girl and, of course, I was pretty much right on target with the inspiration behind her look because that's exactly what celebrity hairstylist <b>Robert Vetica</b> (who used <b>Moroccanoil</b> products) was going for! <div><br /></div><div>Here's how he created the look: </div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiETR7g12j7vwDDd-mqVGaT82aVyv5Ha22org_njyRPG862xlWYh_88ZJxdfM2MS8jdyShVgbf7DKYvItpxZ8d0OKPuL82i0NWDPHPNpqoUuYiwTCyPZZfQMdYhjYCKV6lmoy9MQ1vvoAug/s400/HilarySwankSAGAwards2_TheGlamazonsBlog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568708408404400642" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 266px; height: 400px; " /></span></div><div><br /></div><div>-After shampooing, blow-dry hair using <b>Moroccanoil Treatment</b> to instantly condition, bring any dry ends to life and make hair easy to style. It also gives the hair a brilliant, natural-looking shine. </div><div><br /></div><div>-After the hair is dry, curl 1" by 1" sections of the hair with a curling iron, starting at the nape of the neck and then pinning to the head. These were real, full base curls, not spiral curls. Continue section by section until you reach the crown and then finish the sides and top of the head. Once done, you'll have that 1960's roller set type look. </div><div><br /></div><div>-Set the hair with a good spritz of the <b>Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray</b> and let it sit for about 20 minutes to insure a good, healthy-looking set. </div><div><br /></div><div>-Next, give the set hair a good brushing. Then, add in a small amount of <b>Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream</b> to give the hair a touch of weight and ensure body.</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><br /></span></div><div><br /></div><div>-To finish, remove the set and give the hair a good backcombing at the root and spray again. Most of the backcombing was brushed out except for at the crown where he ran his fingers through the hair to loosen it up. Then, backcomb a bit more at the crown, give another spray and lightly brush over the top.</div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuQZXMZCC40RsqlhxO4ZI9SKVDS35WZp5XSbO8EQFh6LlUmEojocsZTioPgLN-h1ZbVsrM3EBDA9fZCFubHy1vCtZTK-P_tA5M4HNCtwjucvI1j9jejDPk0KNWQdLvq7E47WoEUOmGq5jt/s400/HilarySwankSAGAwards_TheGlamazonsBlog.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568707932010785714" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 351px; height: 400px; " /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><br /></span></div><div><br /></div><div>Hilary's makeup was done by celebrity makeup artist <b>Kara Yoshimoto Bua</b> using all <b>CHANEL</b>, of course! Here's how she created the look: </div><div><br /></div><div>"Hilary's eyes were extended out with the <b>CHANEL Eye Definer in Brun-Cuivre</b>. I blended along the entire upper lashline, lower lashline, on the outer half of the eye and into the crease to create the more graphic shape of the 60's/70's lined eye. I finished off the eyes with the <b>CHANEL Inimitable Intense Mascara in Noir</b> and used <b>Ardell</b> individual lashes on the outer half of the eye. Her cheeks were warmed up with a peachy tone using <b>CHANEL Powder Blush in Fresque</b>. I kept the lips softly lined with <b>CHANEL Lip Definer in Beige</b>, and moistened with <b>CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine Lip Colour in Canotier</b>."<br /><div><br /></div><div><b>What do you think of Hilary's beauty look here, Glamazons? If you live up north like I do, you might as well nab these products and try re-creating the look on your own! It's a great snow day activity hahaha. </b></div></div><div><br /></div><div>xo</div><div>Ferocia </div><div><br /></div>Ferociahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02610373665531915866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8451931729555824430.post-72656804956070734702011-01-31T16:03:00.002-05:002011-02-01T07:43:17.836-05:00MAGAZINE GLAM: Naomi Campbell Nude on the Cover of British GQ<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipj55qOJMBTw15a-RLTyAyMGh0iuxrrA92esTpL0yiNzoM32u0JdubYaqoSDxkegBElwetoz23e_cgX57D8svhrtgvi8rRIvcZuPVoDcdfFy8hXRXJYOrAQeVUQyV2Iq-dEmEOMSFKCcbW/s1600/naomi-campbell-british-gq-nude-blood-diamonds.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipj55qOJMBTw15a-RLTyAyMGh0iuxrrA92esTpL0yiNzoM32u0JdubYaqoSDxkegBElwetoz23e_cgX57D8svhrtgvi8rRIvcZuPVoDcdfFy8hXRXJYOrAQeVUQyV2Iq-dEmEOMSFKCcbW/s400/naomi-campbell-british-gq-nude-blood-diamonds.jpg" width="296" /></a></div><br /><br /><b>Naomi Campbell </b>is one of the most gorgeous specimens in life. It's a distinction she shares with only a few other celebs like <b>Heidi Klum, Iman, Halle Berry </b>and<b> Adriana Lima </b>who are fortunate enough to have stunningly gorgeous features and a perfect body that doesn't age.<br /><br />That's why, although <b>Naomi's</b> latest <b>GQ </b>cover is beyond beautiful, I cannot fathom why they would photograph her in such an off-putting position. On her knees? It's just a little too over-the-top for me.<br /><br />There are plenty more tasteful ways to shoot someone artistically in the nude; take <b>Taraji P. Henson's </b>new <b>PETA</b> ad for example. You get the full scope of her gorgeous bod, but not in a ready-made sex position.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxlwLIbOEwcuua7Ng-GtY2YOTa7vXjfDyCBRIb282C3OKDsMdl7nJcgG9nZDBGeu2sGFlMBvIfbcM_ZksbDBnoq27jCELSDFljB5OUxaeAwFbV7WBkJ0Lv2HhXaDwY4VJ9YSzuGS6b4I9V/s1600/taraji-henson-peta-nude.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxlwLIbOEwcuua7Ng-GtY2YOTa7vXjfDyCBRIb282C3OKDsMdl7nJcgG9nZDBGeu2sGFlMBvIfbcM_ZksbDBnoq27jCELSDFljB5OUxaeAwFbV7WBkJ0Lv2HhXaDwY4VJ9YSzuGS6b4I9V/s400/taraji-henson-peta-nude.jpg" width="302" /></a></div><br />Furthermore, it seems the cover story is about <b>Naomi's </b>infamous Blood Diamonds trial and the sexualized tone of the image certainly does not match the serious matter of the crimes, even with the "Naked Truth" title.<br /><br />But alas, her skin, body and face are truly a work of art, and that's all that matters when it comes to selling covers, isn't it?<br /><br />What do you think of the cover?<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipj55qOJMBTw15a-RLTyAyMGh0iuxrrA92esTpL0yiNzoM32u0JdubYaqoSDxkegBElwetoz23e_cgX57D8svhrtgvi8rRIvcZuPVoDcdfFy8hXRXJYOrAQeVUQyV2Iq-dEmEOMSFKCcbW/s1600/naomi-campbell-british-gq-nude-blood-diamonds.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipj55qOJMBTw15a-RLTyAyMGh0iuxrrA92esTpL0yiNzoM32u0JdubYaqoSDxkegBElwetoz23e_cgX57D8svhrtgvi8rRIvcZuPVoDcdfFy8hXRXJYOrAQeVUQyV2Iq-dEmEOMSFKCcbW/s400/naomi-campbell-british-gq-nude-blood-diamonds.jpg" width="296" /></a></div><br /><br />P.S.
