Un-Supermodel Behavior: Cara Delevingne Muddies Chanel Name With Nasty Tongue Sticking

Makes you wish for the days of the REAL supermodels---such as Cindy, Naomi, Christy, Helena, Linda, and so on.

Today, models like Cindy Crawford are in their 40s and still looking good.

 But now, society has given us the images of such forgettable models as Cara Delevingne. Yes, we said, forgettable. What a juvenile, spoiled brat, you are, Miss Cara! Hope you're banking it, honey, because NOT every model has a long, extended career.



And she's even resorted to the look-at-me, childish, Miley Cyrus behavior, nasty tongue and all.

Why would fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld ever let Cara Delevingne walk the runway for the well-respected Chanel brand? Couldn't he find some other model, without her ha, ha...I'm a model and you're not attitude?!
 It's globally embarrassing. But there she strolled along  at the Chanel haute couture show in Paris.

 So, Linda Evangelitsa bragged about not rolling out of bed for LESS than $10,000 a day. That's about the only naughty thing we recall that supermodel doing.

Cara Delevingne might be tall, super slender + wear clothes well.

Who cares?!

There are lots of women with those attributes, but weren't lucky enough to have hit the model jackpot, unfortunately.


The bizarre thing besides Ms. Delevingne's unsupermodel behavior was the footwear in Karl Lagerfeld's show.

Cara was wearing flats, but NOT ballerina. Instead, the model wore trainers (sneakers)! Sort of like Nikes, pictured here for $130.
Sorry, but we don't think trainers look beautiful with fancy clothing, no matter who is wearing them.

Get JLo Look-A-Like Black Python Clutch For Less Than $14!

Shh-hhhhhh.

We're not supposed to say, but we found a super cute, embossed faux, black python clutch like JLo's at, er......Walmart...LOL...
But you can also buy this pretty fake from Amazon, if you fell like 'upgrading' your status.

There's wealthy Jennifer Lopez photographed 3 times carrying one of her fave accessories---the  black python clutch. And yes....her leather is REAL.

Her sexy, black clutch is from Thale Blanc, the Talia Fatueux ($2,200). It comes with a chain handle. Dimensions:9"L x 3.5"H x 2.5"W.





Here is the Bundle Monster embossed faux, black clutch that's a REAL steal at just 13.99 + FREE shipping, even better than the Amazon total price.


Get it here, at Rakuten.com. Dimensions: 10" x 4.5" x 2"(L x W x H). It also comes with clip-on strap, 2 of them.

Okay, so the cheaper clutch is NO match for the glam JLo real leather clutch. That's alright. It's still a very good deal, plus it comes in lots of different colors.

When you need a black clutch in a decent size that's embossed, you CAN't beat this price.

Trying To Hide Imperfections? Put On Miracle Blur--More Than A Primer

Okay.....we all respond differently to makeup + skin care products.

Some women say it WORKS, while others claim it DOES NOT!

We have come to learn, that it is good to keep sampling various beauty products, and when your skin finds a great one, then that's half the battle.

Today, we are looking at L'Oreal's Revitalift Miracle Blur.



The print ads are effective, because the stuff promises to be an "instant skin smoother." Plus it, "erases the look of lines, pores and wrinkles in seconds." 30 seconds, that is!


Alright, that's quite the high-performing beauty item!

So, what is Miracle Blur?

You can find a small tube of it at your local CVS. It's not cheap at $24.99, but compared to a lot of primers, it's a decent deal. We suppose you could call this product a moisturizing primer of sorts. It is designed around the art of skin smoothing. It gives the face + neck a more airbrushed appearance.
And who doesn't desire that?!

Plastic Experts Cry "Nose Job": Claim Little Kendall Got Smaller Nose Like Kim

We certainly did not see this one coming!

But it's ALL over the entertainment + tabloid news---that 18-year-old Kendall Jenner has gone and splurged on a smaller nose like big sister Kim Kardashian.
Kendall's new nose?
Hmmm. We're not so sure about that.

At age 18, we still consider Kendall a child in some ways, and for the media to begin picking on this young, sweet girl is criminal.

Maybe Kendall Jenner did indeed get a subtle nose job, and if so, it's REALLY nobody's business.

If she had a big nose that bothered her, we could see her wanting to fix it, to fit in, so to speak.

Kendall's old nose?
In Kendall's case, she had a small, adorable nose to begin with, so we would be puzzled as to why she would desire such a change.

True, she is trying to jump-start a modeling career, but if the agencies don't catapult you to stardom fast, it probably won't happen, even with a tinier nose and references by some, that you're the next Ali McGraw.

In our humble opinion, we do NOT believe Kendall has gotten a nose job.

But the plastic experts believe otherwise.

Here's one opinion from a leading consultant plastic surgeon Miles Berry of Cosmetic Surgery Partners in London. 

He said this to the MailOnline:

"The bridge of her nose looks a little more crooked in earlier photo and this could certainly have been smoothed surgical The tip could well be smaller and rather more refined, again pointing to possible surgery."

 Well, that's enough on the subject. Who really 'nose?'

Style Icon Kate Moss Dolls Up In Leopard Coat: Copy Her Look For Less!

Happy 40th birthday, Kate Moss!!

This is how the style icon got ready for her birthday bash in London yesterday. The famous model loves her leopard coat, as do we! She seems to wear this one just about everywhere!

The model whose effortless chic is copied around the world likes to pair her animal print with black and her handbags with a pop of elegant color. See the pale pink Chanel clutch and the banana yellow clutch.

Leopard print also looks lovely with a number of shades like red and white, nude, and so on.

Leopard print is a CLASSIC. It's NEVER out of style. So it would make for a smart buy.

But we also believe in a good buy, too.

COPY Kate Moss' look for less!!

We found a Ralph Lauren Denim & Supply Leopard Print Pea Coat, now on SALE for $109.99.

And the Asos See U Soon Leopard Print Coat, also on SALE for $111.11.

Both great deals and pretty, leopard coats, a la Kate Moss.

How To Get Gabrielle Union's Glam Wavy Hair With Just Two Items

Everybody adores actress Gabrielle Union. Not only does she look much younger than 41, but she also exudes this friendly beauty.

And we LOVE Gabrielle's glamorous, wavy hair!!

What if we told you, you could achieve a similar sexy hairstyle with just 2 items?

Gabrielle's stylist Larry Sims tells InStyle magazine how to get it done.

1.  Invest in a 1 1/4-inch curling iron. We found this one at hairenvy.com. It's the 1 1/4-inch Professional Gold Spring curling iron ($39.50) with a 24K gold-plated barrel.

2. Pick up a can of volumizing hairspray. Try Got2b 2 Sexy Voluptuous Volume hairspray ($6.79, at Walmart).

 Begin wrapping small sections of hair around the 1 1/4-inch curling iron. 
After unwinding each piece, form a pin curl and clip it to your head. 
Allow to cool before releasing the curls, and then brush through strands. 

Also, to get that va-va-va-voom volume:
...."Use a wide-tooth comb to lightly tease hair from the tips to midway up strands," Larry suggests.
Then carefully run the comb over the surface to smooth out any frizz. Them finish by locking in the style with volumizing hairspray.
