Cindy Crawford- "I would not have become a supermodel in 2009. I look too healthy… "A body like mine with big breasts, normal thighs and toned upper arms" isn't what the industry wants now. "

I think Cindy Crawford has hit the nail on the head. Models today are two thin and she had made me dream of the 80's where Supermodels were gorgeous glamazons.

Irish Twins, John and Edward have gotten a lot of smack in the media over their sub par vocal talent on X Factor.  However, their style choices are now  getting attention. This week they wore neon bright suits by Topman  when they sang "She Bangs" by Ricky Martin.  Edward wore raspberry and John wore Lime green.  If you are wondering how I can tell the difference between the identical twins, its because John always has lopsided hair.

Theres a fine line between genius and  insanity and  this cover of 10 Men is right on the border. Strangely enough , I secretly think its awesome.

Happy by Leona Lewis is guaranteed to be another huge number 1, it is simply amazing. Leona is also looking better than ever in the video. I was trying to find an excuse to post this video because I  just love the song.  Most of this blogs content  focuses on  British fashion, photography  and art. So here is my justification for posting about this music  video.

1. Leona is British and in the video she  is wearing a dress  by British Fashion designer. Vivienne Westwood so their is the British fashion element of the post.

2.The director of the video is also a Brit and videography is kind of like moving photography so this post has fashion and photography.

Speaking of the videography, this music video is simply amazing and the video plays out like an emotional little movie. The video was directed by Jake Nava who hails from Hackney, London. He is the mastermind behind Beyonce's video for Single Ladies which has been parodied thousands of times. He also recently directed She Wolf by Shakira and has done videos for The Rolling Stones, Mariah, Britney, Natasha Bedingfield, Dido and many more.

Susie Bubble was sketched by John Paul Thurlow for the cover of   London based magazine,  Sketchbook. The magazine's  premiere issue  is titled The Fashion Blogger Issue: "I Blog Therefore I Am,". Congrats to Susie and John Paul on landing the cover.  

Ten Magazine  is known for their  artistic  covers. They usually have some of the more creative covers and they are also one of the few fashion magazines who don't  feature celebrities on the covers of their issues.  The latest  issue of the quarterly features  Katie Fogarty as shot by photographer Jessica Craig-Martin . The  headline reads  "TOO LIPPY" and shows Katie with an angst ridden expression wiping lipstick off of her face. Its gutsy but I am not sure if I would have chosen it as the cover ( I am one of those old school guys who thinks  covers need to have eyes in them)  but nonetheless its a great picture.

Che (me) and Paula in Rome.
