Barbara is a really beautiful model, her face is gorgeous. The thing I love the most about this model is defiantly her face. She is best known for and eyes and her pout and every time I see a picture of her that is what I am immediately drawn to.

Barbara is another one of those models that just popped up but she is amazing and all her pictures are stunning. One of her more memorable shoots was for September 2011 issue of French ELLE. Simply beautiful.

I can’t believe that it has taken me this long to do this post; I think that Joan Smalls is a really talented model. She has such a great look and takes really beautiful pictures. She has amazing legs and I think that she is well known for her pout. Joan has the ability to draw you into her pictures, I always find myself staring at her photos even though she never really does any crazy poses her photos are simple and stunning.

I can’t remember when I first noticed Joan, she is one of those models that just kind of showed up and was everywhere. I know she has been modelling for a while now, but it’s just recently that people have really started to take notice. This photo shoot from V is one that I saw recently that actually reminded me that I needed to do focus on post for Joan.

Born in 1992, in the Dominican Republic, Rose was disovered  when approached by a man while she was playing volleyball. Thinking the man was crazy, she ran away from him, but he insisted on talking to the 13-year-old because he said she had the potential to become a model. The man was actualy Sandro Guzman founder of Ossygeno Model Management. He gave Rose her card, but she did not call until her aunt spotted him on a TV a year later. She has gone on to appear on the cover of French Vogue, Arise, V & i-D & in editorials for American, Italian & Teen Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Numéro, & W. She has also appeared in ads for Barney's & Nars Cosmetics.

Ok where do I start, first of all she is ridiculously gorgeous with those lips and that skin, she has the perfect face shape, but I think what I love the most is the shape of her eyes they are beautiful, her face to me is so perfect and of course I can’t talk about Rose without mentioning her hair. Such a stunning model.

I first really took notice of Rose when I saw 'Profil De Grace' editorial in the December 2009 issue of French Vogue. Her short hair & simplistic but outstanding features just caught my eyes. She looked beautiful and gave us 90% of that bad ass Grace Jones vibe and I only say 90% because I don’t think anyone can ever give us 100% of Grace Jones apart from Grace Jones. I also liked this editorial because it reminded us that Grace Jones is the original that many celebrities copy their style from.
