The Delevingne sisters take the Burberry show by Storm



Poppy Delevingne (Storm, London) exits the SS12 Burberry show at London Fashion Week


Cara Delevingne (Storm, London) exits the SS12 Burberry show at London Fashion Week

By the way, it's pronounced Bur-brie (as in the cheese) by the Brits and not Bur-berry (as in the fruit). And to think I was like all "American" sounding going Bur-berry all these years!

I think the contrast between the two sisters style as seen in these pics from today is quite interesting, don't you think?

p.s. and in having nothing to do with the Delevingne sisters and everything to do with street style, make sure to hop over to the new L'Oreal Paris Your Style Your Studio for hair site by clicking HERE. It's genius surfing hair styles uploaded by people from around the world.

Samantha Gradoville exits the Topshop Unique show at London Fashion Week


Samantha is always friendly and consistently displays a willingness to work with the press as I always see her slow down if not completely stop for other cameras.

Runway + Editorial + Campaign = increased booking value in the Old School paradigm

Runway + Editorial + Campaign + Internet Press = increased booking value in Internet Revolution, the New School way.

Roz Jana (unsigned): author Laura Lee meets actress Keira Knightley meets Napoleon Hill



dress--1960's from Bertie's vintage shop
brown bag--grandma's
green bag--vintage
oxford heels--Office




BACKBONE--brooch made by her friend to turn the idea of resilience, strength, and backbone into a piece of jewelry

All I can say about Roz --formerly on the Select board-- is that in my opinion, her beauty which is reminiscent of Keira Knightley goes way beyond her outward appearance:

--writer--her (Agri)cultural review writing just won the VOGUE.UK 2011 Talent Contest. It appears in the October Issue of Vogue UK and won her a month's paid internship at Vogue UK.

--designer--she makes her own dresses, which you can read about on her blog Clothes, Cameras and Coffee

--trooper--she responds to adversity with poise that would make Tony Robbin's drool. When she first learned she had scoliosis, she used it as an opportunity to make her own "scoliodress" inspired by the Alexander McQueen spine print from a few seasons back. You can read about it in her post TWISTED EMBRACE. And as if that's not enough, check out her "backbone" brooch.

While Roz may claim to have about 10 favorite authors, with her new Vogue Talent Contest win and an attitude in adversity like she has, it won't surprise me if someday she makes the ranks of her most admired authors: Laurie Lee, Angela Carter, or Owen Sheers.

Altamira definitely loves Roz.
