Model Muse: Bambi Northwood-Blyth






   Bambi Northwood-Blyth, aged 21, is a model from Sydney, 
Australia. 




She was born Stefani Northwood, but later changed her name as she thought that Bambi represented her personality better, and she had always been commented on for her cute, doll face. 


Her popularity has been rapidly increasing in the past couple of years, due to her individuality and unique look. She has those trademark eyebrows, which helped garner attention for the likes of Emma Watson and Cara Delevingne. 







Bambi is a hit with high fashion magazine Harpers Bazaar, and has also shot for the likes of Russh, Vogue Japan, Armani Jeans , Marc Jacobs AND Nasty Gal. Yep. 








The beauty isn't limited to just editorial though, as she has also hit the catwalk for: Chanel,Balenciaga, Kanye West and Topshop Unique! 













I love Bambi because she has that messy, rough around the edges kind of look, like the type of girl you'd always find downtown or at the beach. 













She is part of a generation of new, slightly grungy models that are set to take over and change the face of the industry.




If you're self esteem just took a pretty low dip after looking at these pictures, don't worry! Because ours did too. Big time.


We love Bambi!

Model Muse: Miranda Kerr













Miranda Kerr, aged 29, is a model, entrepeneur and 'Angel' from Sydney, Australia.
She first gained fame at just 13, when she entered the model search competition for Australian teen magazine, Dolly. 
When she was younger, she grew up in the Australian countryside in New South Wales, riding motorbikes on her Grandmother's farm and wearing what she pleased. She states this as being "very grounding", and winning the Dolly competition truly changed her life.




From there, she starred in campaigns for big Aussie brands like Billabong and One Teaspoon, before she made her runway debut in 2004. Other big brands she was shot for were Levis, L.A.M.B and  Betsey Johnson! Wowza!



In 2006, she was set to conquer the States, signing contracts with Maybelline,appearing in her first Victoria's Secret catalogue and appearing in Kanye West's Number One music video. Then she went BIG.

She replaced the fabulous Gisele Bundchen in 2007 at Victoria's Secret, and has walked their elaborate and extravagant catwalks ever since! She is one of the most famous Angels of the lingerie giant. In 2009, she also launched her beauty care range Kora Organics! Busy girl.

To top it all off, she married to THE Orlando Bloom in 2010, and gave birth to their son, Flynn, shortly afterwards. She has also replaced KATE MOSS as the face of Mango! :O
Not to mention, Miranda also has a killer fashion sense, and can always be seen either out in NYC or Sydney in outfits you can only DREAM of owning. 

I think she is so successful because of her timeless beauty and cute dimples. She has a 'type of face' that is rarely seen in the modelling world, as it is so young and fresh, unlike some gaunt models with hollow cheekbones you see a lot nowadays. 

Can a girl have it all? I guess she can!

We love Miranda!

And she has a CRAZY COOL accent! Check her out on Ellen:

Christmas Tag




Blogger Christmas Tag

My Christmas tree!
Some of you may have seen the several Christmas tags on Blogger lately, so I decided to join in and answer some of the more popular questions :-) So here goes:



1). When do you start getting excited for Christmas?
Normally around late September time, but I tend to get random bursts of excitement throughout the year!



2). What is your favourite Christmas colour?
AAAAA I don't know! Red is the usual answer, but I quite like emerald green.



3). What is your favourite Christmas movie?
Definitely Elf. I don't think there is a funnier Christmas movie. I also love the Muppets, Grinch & Miracle on 34th Street though!



4). Do you have any Christmas traditions?
We always have a huge family gathering, and on Christmas Eve we all go to a Christingle service at our local church and then get new pyjamas ( they always smell so good!).



5). What are your favourite Christmas songs?
We would be here forever if I had to list them all haha, but the best are:

All I Want For Christmas Is You - Mariah Carey
Fairytale of New York - The Pogues
Warm this Winter - Gabriella Cilmi
Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree - Miley Cyrus (guilty pleasure!)
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer - Not Really Sure

6). Do you stay in your PJ's or dress up for Christmas?
I love to dress up for Christmas, as I think it's a day when you can just wear what you want and have fun with it!



7). If you could only buy a present for one person this year, who would it be?
Even though they wouldn't appreciate it, my little twin cousins since it's their first Christmas! ( They can count as one!)



8). What do you do on your Winter break?
I love going out with friends, having snowball fights, watching movies and baking!



9). What is your favourite Christmas smell?
Probably cinnamon and gingerbread, they smell gooooooood.



10). What's your festive make-up look?
I am ( ask anyone) awful with make-up, so I tend not to wear much. If it is Christmas though, I attempt to wear red lipstick and some sparkly things! Gotta have some Christmas BADAZZLE!



11). Do you prefer giving or receiving presents?
Most definitely giving. I love seeing people's faces light up when you get them something totally ridiculous that they'll prbably never use! And I love to wrap gifts, so that's a bonus.



12) Handmade or shop-bought cards?
I've been making handmade cards since I was around 4, so I would say handmade!



14). What's your favourite Christmas food?
You're making me CHOOSE!? Maybe Celebrations or roast potatoes. They're like cooked heaven.

Why not have a go at these questions yourself and post them on your blog, we would love to see your answers!

Merry Christmas!
