Model Monday- Abbey Lee Kershaw



23 year old model Abbey Lee is HUUUGE at the moment (read bigger than the biggest thing you can think of. Yes, bigger than an elephant). Having won the 2004 Girlfriend Model Search Abbey shot to fame in Australia, her home country but she now lives in NY where her agency Next Models is based. She is ranked 10 in the top 50 models and has done a huge number of campaigns since starting modelling. She is 5'11'' and her measurements are 34-24-35.
Extra info:
She has a tattoo inside her bottom lio that reads "truth"
She has a pet lizard
She fainted in ALexander McQueen s/s09 due to the corset and heels
Her beauty routine consists mainly of witch hazel for cleansing and toning and coconut body butter from The Body Shop to moisturise.
To keep fit she runs, dances and walks everywhere.

I love this girl she is stunning, especially in the Flora by Gucci advert, the gap in her teeth makes her soo much more likable.


those legs!

Model Monday- Frida Gustavsson


This girl is absolutely awesome, definitely one of my favourite models. I first noticed her when altamira did some photos of her between shows (I think in Paris...not sure) and she keeps coming up in editorials and on blogs. I have a habit of saving any photos I like from the internet and I swear she literally makes up about a quarter of ALL my model photos!
I couldn't find that much information about her but Pony Ryder and TFS were by far the most helpful.
Basic Info: Height 5'11'', Age 16, Born in Stockholm (of course. Seriously I swear they must have like a model factory at the moment, the percentage of Swedish models that come from Stockholm is crazy huge) she was first discovered shopping at a local mall.
Extra Info: Favourite foundation-armani, loves chanel body lotion, music tastes include Joy Division, Velvet Underground, Kent, Moby, Bob Dylan and Lou Reed. She stays in shape by eating healthily, drinking lots of water and running.























Ok sorry for the photos, these are the cutdown ones as well! And if any of these are form your blog and I haven't credited you please let me know and I'll change it, it's just when I save things I never remember to put the name of the blog in the caption and so when I post them later I have no idea. And I know it's bad etiquette and I'm so sorry if I've done it to you

Model Monday- Karlie Kloss




I lovelovelove this girl- I first noticed her in British Vogue in November 2008 when she was shot for an editorial called All Night Long by Terry Richardson (I still have 2 of these photos cut out on my wall at home even though it was over a year ago, that's how much I loved the shoot.) She reappeared in February 2009 for New Frontiers (British Vogue), after this I researched her and she became one of my 5 favourite models (kicking Jourdan Dunn off the list) especially once I'd seen a video of her in Sonia Rykiel talking french.
First discovered in a charity mall fashion show raising money for her friend with cancer in 2003, Karlie shot to fame due to her dancer's walk (she has studied ballet since she was 10) and stunning features. She has been photographed like evveerrryywhere and i would say most designers have used her for a show or campaign at some point.
Extra info: she has a puppy named joey, she is 5'11'', born in Illinois, according to wiki she likes baking cookies (not too sure about this she is a model afterall..that figure doesn't get there by itself!), she speaks french and has great style.
