model citizen

"The 24-year-old Aussie has made her mark because of her innocent, child-like appearance."

 "There's a real trend for this doll-like look, a childish look, with a look of knowing behind it. It reflects childishness as well in fashion. The sex thing has had its day. Fashion is now reverting to all kinds of shorts and patchwork, playsuits and really bright color." ~Tatler Fashion Editor Anne Bromilow

Gemma Ward was born November 3, 1987, in Perth, Australia. Despite her ravishing looks, the golden-haired green-eyed beauty never set out to be a fashion model. In fact, she was discovered by accident when she attended a taping of the Australian television show, Search for a Supermodel in 2002. As she recalls, “I came to watch my friends. I was sitting there in the crowd when the agent from Perth came over. I didn't even want to enter, it was a bit of chance. I was so shocked when I got my first job.” source
Also watch out for the release of "The Great Gatsby" which is to be out in theatres around December 2012, where we'll get to see Gemma Ward alongside Leonardo DiCaprio. 

Actually I can't wait to see this because I remember writing high school papers on this book and I'm also a fan of Leonardo DiCaprio. 

Let me know your thoughts...do you like Gemma Ward's look?  Do you agree with Anne Bromilow?  Will you be going to see "The Great Gatsby"?
ha sorry that's a lot of questions :P

beauty is all around us

Hey there my lil' sugar plums :)

Such a beautiful day today, the sun was shining, and a lil' fresh air always does the body good.  My cousin and I headed to Veria today, hot chocolate and chit chat at a local cafe :) Afterwards a stroll through the streets and the shopping district.

We stumbled upon this beauty and I just had to take a picture.  It's a free standing wall at the top of Mitropoleos and I've never seen anything like this.  I love the juxtoposition of

the turquoise rocks against the grey slabs of earth.

I hope you all had a wonderful day!
