Karolina Kurkova: Supermodel, Mama und ganz normaler Mensch



Das Supermodel Karolina Kurkova gehört zu den bestbezahlten Models der Welt und dennoch gab es Zeiten an denen sie unter ihrem wundervollen Aussehen litt. Die 26-Jährige ist weltweit bekannt: Sie lief bereits für Victoria Secret, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Lauren und sie war dieses Jahr das Gesicht der Berliner Fashion Week. Die Tschechin hat erst durch ihre Model-Karriere mit ihrem Körper Frieden geschlossen, denn sie litt insbesondere in ihrer Schulzeit unter ihrer Größe. Zu dieser Zeit fand sie sich selber zu schlacksig und aufgrund ihrer kurzen Haare sah sie aus wie ein Junge. Karolina war die Größte in ihrer Klasse und heute zählt sie zu den „Größten“ auf den internationalen Laufstegen.
Das internationale Model hat einen einzigen kleinen Schönheitsfehler, sie leidet seit ihrer Geburt unter einem Nabelbruch, doch dieser „Schönheitsfehler“ wird durch Retuschieren behoben. 2008 wurde sie einmal als zu mollig bezeichnet – was für uns nicht nachvollziehbar ist- Kurkova leidet unter einer Schilddrüsen-Unterfunktion und diese führt zu einer Gewichtszunahme. Heute steht das Supermodel zu ihrem Körper und gemeinsam mit ihrem Verlobten Archie Drury und ihrem gemeinsamen Kind genießt sie das Leben. Sie hat gelernt ihr Leben zu schätzen und das finden wir auch gut so

Fashion Around the World Series: Cambodia and Laos

Cambodia


Khmer Fashion


Khmer Fashion


Khmer Loeu Tribe


Buddhists in Cambodia. Buddhism is the primary religion in Cambodia.


Traditional wedding wear in Cambodia.


Laos


Laos Fashion Week




Traditional Laos Fashion


Wedding makeup and accessories in Laos



This week's fashion around the world series is on Cambodia and Laos. Cambodia and Laos is very much like the fashion in Thailand. Though they have some notable differences. Such as the Khmer dress, which is only seen in Cambodia. It reminds me of the prom dresses we wore to our prom. Because Laos and Thailand are so close together, the same tribes live in both countries. And because of that many of the tribes have the same fashion. Bright, beautiful colors with bold patterns, and it makes the clothing pop amongst the jungle background.


What do you think of the fashion in Cambodia and Laos?

Celebrity Fashion Weekly Edition

This week's celebrity fashion edition is on The Transformer's star and Victoria's Secret Model, Rosie Huntington!:



How to copy this look all for under $100!:
Dress: Cream Lace Shift Dress for $30 at blackwhitedress.com
Shoes: Nude Damitak Pointy Shoes for $19 at shoes19.com

I love Rosie's dress. Her outfit is simple and chic. A white lace dress can be innocent and sweet but also sexy. Which makes it great for any occasion. Wear this to work with a fitted black blazer. Take this into the evening by wearing this dress with nude platforms and a bold bracelet or cocktail ring.

Here are some handbag options to go with the ladylike look!:

Outfit of the Day: Color Blocking
















Outfit Details:
Dress: Charolette Russe
Shoes: JcPenny
Necklace: Bought Locally
Bracelets: Forever21


I thought I would try out the color blocking trend today by wearing yellow and blue. I make it easy by wearing my yellow colored dress with my blue heels. I don't wear these shoes that much because they pinch my big toe. :( I hate it when such cute shoes hurt! I have had this dress forever, for over a year. It is a great summer dress on the go.


Have you tried the color blocking trend this season?

Polyvore Outfit of the Week- Pre-Fall

Pre-Fall


It is the middle of July and I am no where starting to think of fall and the cold weather. Though, stores are now starting to show and sell their pre-fall collections. There are ways to incorporate these pieces into your wardrobe right now. Such as wearing chunky knits with shorts and booties. I am loving these shorts and the little zipper detailing on the sides. The boots are gorgeous and have a little country flair, which you all know I love!


Have you incorporated any of your fall pieces into your wardrobe this summer?


Always,
