I’m super excited to share with you my interview with Sports Illustrated Swim and Victoria’s Secret model, Jessica Pérez. Jessica is one of eight young models competing in the international Sports Illustrated 2011 Model Search and has been in the lead with more than double the votes until today. The winner is guaranteed a spot in the 2012 swimsuit edition! Jessica is from Costa Rica, and has lived in Ecuador and Honduras, before moving to the US. Jessica comes across as a very smart young lady with an incredible sense of humor and passion for life. Add all these to her stunning looks makes a perfect receipt for a rising star.

Marta Walsh: Where do you call home?
Jessica Pérez: Hmm… that’s always a tough question for me because my parents live in Ecuador so that’s where the house that I call ‘home’ is, but I feel that Costa Rica as a country is my ‘home.’ I also feel New York is home since this is where I have my apartment.

Here’s a sneak peek to G-Star RAW Magazine featuring Q&A with the lovely Gemma Arterton.

G-Star is fascinated by your authenticity – the fact that beneath the Hollywood glamour and gloss there is a tough, real person with a tough, real upbringing. You embody their values as an authentic denim brand that makes real work-wear and has, by a twist of fate, become a glamorous fashion label. Do you relate to that?

Of course! I think that’s one of the things that I love about G-Star. I feel like a tough girl in a fancy frock sometimes, and I think G-Star is the same. I like the contradiction between glamour and durability. Sometimes people are shocked when they meet me because of this contradiction. I’ve often been told that what I say doesn’t match the way I look… and I think that’s a good thing! Surprise is exciting.

I’m excited to share with you my interview with Supermodel Michelle Alves. Known as “The Body”, nickname she shares with fellow models Elle McPherson and Gisele Bündchen, Michelle Alves could also be called the ultimate “Cover Girl” just as well. With over 100 magazine covers to her credit over the course of her career, including titles such as Vogue, Elle, L’Officiel, French, Marie Claire, Esquire and Bazaar of all four corners of the world and editorials for the best fashion magazines of the industry, like I-D, Numéro, 10, POP, Flair, V, V Man and W; Michelle has become a true fashion chame- leon.

Milan Fashion Week The Makeup by Dolce&Gabbana. Backstage at Fall Winter 2011Dolce&Gabbana where masculine meets feminine.

At the Dolce&Gabbana Autumn/Winter 2011 Ready to Wear show in Milan, Dolce&Gabbana make up artist Pat McGrath evoked contrasts between masculine definition and glowing, feminine beauty by creating two very different looks on the models. The sense of contradiction was evident in the contrast between light, minimal taupe tones and deep berry stain applied to models’ lips.
