The thing I love most about Jordan are her legs they just go on and on and she has one of the best walks out there. She always stands out on the runway and has great cheekbones and amazing smoldering eyes.

The first time I really took notice of Jordan was when I saw the 'magical realism' editorial for the January 2009 issue of American Vogue. Her face was so beautiful and she really made the clothes look so good. I loved the hair, which was styled by Guido Palau and the makeup which was done by Diane Kendal. It was just such a great shoot with two great models. I just loved it.

The thing I love the most about Chanel is her face. She has beautiful eyes, lips and a great smile. She is just so beautiful and she has the ability to be cute, high fashion and edgy, which is something I look for in a model as it means they can work with a wide variety of clients. She look amazing in every picture I see of her, she literally can't take a bad picture. Chanel is one of favourite models at the moment, I love everything about her.

The first time I really took notice of Chanel was when I saw her in the December 2008 edition of Harper's Bazaar. The pictures were just so amazing, she was giving us eyes and hair and the shapes she was creating with her body, it was so high fashion but it was cute at the same time. I loved the make-up in this shoot, which was done by Frank B. This was another one of those times where I wanted all the items.

The thing I love the most about Emma is her flawless skin and bright blue eyes. She is just so striking and she really knows how to use her bone structure to her advantage. I can't even go on about how much I love this model, because I think its pretty obvious considering she is the model in the background picture of this blog.

I first really took notice of Emma when I saw her in Spanish Vogue. The main focus of the shoot was the jewelry and the shoot had a very refined and sophisticated feel to it. The pictures were so beautiful and you really notice how amazing her features are and how beautiful her neck is. I think models should always try to give the impression of a longer neck. Emma is another model that has the ability to make me want to buy everything in the ad. These are definitely my favourite pictures of her.
