The thing I love the most about Maryna is probably the thing I talk about the most on this blog, her cheekbones. I love them, I love her face, she is so beautiful and she is a really great model. I don’t think I have seen an editorial of hers that I don’t like, she really knows how to pose and I think she is one of those models that is always able to give the client exactly what they want, whether its sweet and cute for the Dior ads or sexy and glamorous for the cover of French Revue des Modes, she does it all so well.

I have been seeing Maryna for a while now but when I saw the editorial for the may 2012 issue of
Vogue Russia I was blown away. Her body looks amazing and the pictures were stunning. I also have to mention Ekaterina Mukhina who was the stylist, she did such a great job and I love everything she put together. The Hair Stylist, Tomohiro Ohashi and the Makeup Artist, Tyron Machhausen  also did a really good job. Everything was so beautiful and I really wanted every single outfit.

The thing I love the most about Coco is the way she is able to bring her personality into all her pictures. However, it’s not only the fact that she brings in her personality, it’s the fact that she can do that and still give you high fashion. No matter how crazy or silly the expression on her face is there is always a fashion twist to it. She also has an amazing jawline and cheekbones.

Coco has been around for a while, but it was a recent photo shoot that reminded me just what a great model she is. There was so much controversy surrounding the Elle Brasil cover that people may have overlooked how great the editorial inside was. Coco looked beautiful in the pictures and it reminded me how versatile she is as a model not only can she do the fun and edgy photo shoots she can also do the glamorous and simply beautiful shoots as well.
