America's Next Top Model: Biracial Photoshoot

After last week's ANTM many people were outraged about Tyra's 'hapa'-inspired photo shoot in Hawaii. The final six girls had to portray the skin of two ethnic groups. Many people called it racist insulting, offensive and demeaning of other cultures. While others thought of it as inspiring, beautiful, and celebratory. I personally loved this photo shoot. Many of the girls looked gorgeous in different color skin, hair and/or eyes. What do you think? Well here are the girls from least to greatest of my liking.









Chanel Haute Couture Autumn-Hiver 2009/10 Fashion Show


The Chanel Haute Couture Fall-Winter 09/10 fashion show was pretty nice! I love how they had the perfume bottles as props. The outfits of course were very haute couture but there were some things that I would definitely wear. I love the finger mittens they had and their hosiery. I adore the models' hair and makeup, I would totally want to wear that! Also, the chanel suit was revised, there were lots of shiny and bedazzled evening dresses and bedazzled Gilligan hats. The ending was very cute with the wedding couple. Here is the link to watch the fashion show. Enjoy!
