Anne Appreciation

Bonjour!!

On this beautiful Saturday afternoon I have to take a moment of appreciation for this woman:

1950's/60s  model Anne Saint Marie is a face I see a lot of when I'm looking through vintage photos.  She covered the pages of Vogue and Harpers Bazaar many times, she was a mean clothes everything she wore oozed sophistication and elegance.

She was working the smize way before Tyra gave it a name, and her look is just timeless.  Her photos could've been taking today and it wouldn't be out of place. 

                                             

There isn't much information about her on the internet (gasp!), so she remains this beautiful enigma.  Which I quite like because many times the stories of many vintage icons tend to be quite grim.  I see it is as she came, she saw, she conquered (the fashion world that is!)

Bon Soir,

The sun was high above London today, and I was totally loving it!  Hopefully spring is well and truly here!

Today I have to show big Vintage love to Fei Fei Sun

I discovered the gorgeous Chinese supermodel this week, and I can't believe I'd never heard of her before!  Check out the pictures of her spread and cover in Vogue Italia last year January, the styling was 50's and 60's inspired so of course I was loving it!

 


   Look at that face!

Some of her pictures are reminiscent of 50's Supermodel China Machado
                                         
Machado was absolutely an inspiration for the styling of this shoot.

Fei Fei started modelling in China in 2008 and ever since she has become an international supermodel and one of China's top models working with the likes of Karl Lagerfeld and Vivienne Westwood.  With how versatile this beauty is she's definitely one to watch!
