Lara Stone Lip Print from Made By Girl

This month the 30 year old Dutch beauty,

and face of L’Oreal

absolutely sizzles in the summer issue of

Net-a-Porter’s Porter magazine,

channeling 60’s icon and sex kitten Brigitte Bardot,

paired with a western/cowgirl spin.

Summer Dreams

Lara Stone Spring Beauty ~ Glamour France

I just love Lara Stone.

I have a fabulous print of her mouth from Made By Girl

in my office.

And I was so gratified that when American Vogue saw fit to

out Kim Kardashian on their cover,

their competition, Harpers Bazaar chose instead

to utilize the gorgeous Lara.

Now Stone covers the new issue of Glamour France,

as well as starring in the spring beauty special,

where makeup artist Kim Rahman

gives Lara a variety of spring visages

photographed by Nico.

Kim and Kanye Vogue Cover

I’m at a loss for words.

Except for one word.

Why??

Anna Wintour decided to put Kim Kardashian and Kanye West

on the cover of the April 2014 issue of Vogue.

Perhaps the most coveted cover of them all,

generally respected as a definitive moment in a model’s career,

or a well earned moment in an actress’s or a musician’s career.

And now a new goal for reality TV peeps.

I don’t watch the Kardashians, so maybe I have missed something here.

I don’t watch reality TV.

I don’t know Kanye’s music.

Apparently they are one of the most talked about couples in the world?

Annie Liebovitz shot it.

One thing I do know, is don’t question Anna Wintour’s thinking.

On the other hand,

Harpers Bazaar chose model Lara Stone

for their April 2014 cover.

I absolutely love it.
