Oh my Cara!

Today i'm going to talk about one of my idols: Cara Delevingne.

Cara Delevingne (born 12 August 1992 in London, England) is a British fashion model and the granddaughter of former English Heritage boss Sir Jocelyn Stevens, the former publisher of the Queen Magazine and founder of the 60's pirate radio station, Radio Caroline.

Delevingne is currently the face of Burberry's Beauty campaign alongside fellow British models Edie Campbell and Jourdan Dunn. She was previously the face of Burberry's spring/summer 2012 campaign alongside actor Eddie Redmayne, shot by Mario Testino, and was also featured in the brand's spring/summer 2011 campaign.
Delevingne has featured in advertising campaigns for other brands including H&M Authentic Collection (2011), Dominic Jones Jewellery (2012), Blumarine, Zara and Chanel. She was recently described by British Vogue as the "star face" of the autumn/winter 2012-2013 show season, having appeared on the catwalk for brands such as Moschino, Jason Wu, Oscar de la Renta, Burberry, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Stella McCartney and Chanel.

Delevingne has graced the covers of Vogue UK, Vogue Korea, i-D, Russh, Jalouse and Style.com's Spring 2013 issue. She also walked down the catwalk as a model at the 2012 Victoria's Secret fashion show. She is also the face of Chanel's Resort 2013 campaign along with Dutch model Saskia de Brauw.




Delevingne was named by the Evening Standard as one of "London's 1,000 Most Influential of 2011", in the category of "Most Invited", and is currently ranked #25 on models.com's 50 Top Models. She also won Model Of The Year 2012 at the British Fashion Awards.



To say that Cara Delevingne was the model of 2012 would be a serious understatement. Seen on nearly every runway in New York, London, Milan and Paris, 2012 was the year that she showed how versatile she can be - and how in demand she is.
Since she was signed to Storm model management in 2009, she has been steadily building a modelling portfolio that features work for the crème de la crème of the fashion world. Jason Wu, Preen by Thornton Bregazzi, Stella McCartney, Oscar de la Renta, and Versus are just some of the labels she has walked for, while Burberry, Chanel and Spanish high-street store Zara have all snapped her up to be the face of their campaigns.
Off the catwalk her laid-back tom-boy aesthetic has won her points as a style icon in her own right.
Although it has been relatively short to date, her career has been jam-packed with a multitude of stunning photo shoots and glossy images. Here we look at her style both at work and play.

I love her, i think she's my favourite model. She is different to other model, is ironic, particular, expressive, awesome.

Here are some photos and video in which there is Cara; she is parade for Chanel in the first and in the secon, and in the third she talks about herself.

A day in London

Today i'm writing you by London! I arrived here yesterday night and i'm going to leave tomorrow morning, so i went here with my father just for a shopping day (but it's really difficult to do shopping with him). We went first to a beautiful tea shop, where i bought a lovely cup and some kind of tea. Then, we went to Oxford street, and i visited different shops: first i went to Primark, really cute shop, with nice and cheap clothes, and i was in tilt 'cause there were too many things and too less time! The same thing for Topshop; i really love this shop, but i think that the quality is not in proportion with the cost. Other shops i really like are Urban Outfitters, very cool, young and vintage shop where you can buy everything, and American Apparel. Then, we went to Camden Town: it is really cool, with lots of cute and strange boutiques, and there we took a coffee at starbucks. It was really cold, and in the afternoon it snowed! Now we are in the tube, really tired, coming back at the hotel. Soon i'll post the few pics of today!
