Vanessa Paradis: Vogue UK by Mario Testino
French actress, mother and partner of hollywood superstar Johnny Depp, Vanessa Paradis graces the cover of Vogue UK for their July issue. Posing on Santa Monica beach in L.A. looked relaxed as he regaled tales from her exotic life. She became famous at 14 when she recorded 'Joe le Taxi'. Vanessa spoke openly to Vogue 'It's difficult sometimes, but you can't have it all. Everything's got a price to pay and it is complicated, you could lose your head or lose your mind . And you do but it's either that or you stay in one place'. In the shoot Paradis mixes shimmering Chanel jackets with sheer lace and oozes bohemian chic. I was a little disappointed with the shoot. It didn't do justice to Vanessa, the cover looks more like a winter issue than a July one. After his work with Kate Middleton I expected something amazing from Testino.

Chanel Pre-Fall 2011: Alejandra Alonso by Karl Lagerfeld
Alejandro Alonso is the face of the Chanel pre fall campaign by Karl Lagerfeld. I think this is wonderful for Alejandra. She has a wonderful look for Chanel. As a classic beauty she could work in all aspects of the industry but her career has been taking a strange course lately with unexpected projects. However, I have to say this campaign doesn't do Alejandra or Chanel any justice. It would be beautiful for a lookbook, It lacks the Chanel spark though. The 5'10 beauty models metallics with smokey eye make up.
