Iconic Blonde

I am frequently inspired and amazed at how the Marilyn Monroe looks is constantly reinterpreted - and how it continues to look so modern.

“A Long Day’s Journey Into Night”

I love a good old "darkandmoody" editorial. Particularly when they manage to be shot outside with some harsh sunlight and daisies, yet still manage to be strong and brooding - Katie Grand can do no wrong.
One of the things I like about Amber Valletta is that she's one of the few blondes that manage to nail a strong (almost harsh) look. Any blonde girl knows how easy it is to look overly saccharine/girly/vampy - but rarely serious or dramatic. But here she has an androgynous ferocity and power. I think the bleached out brows help too - they are back in vogue dont-cha-know.
And I don't need to say it, but Daria seriously has one of the best bodies in the business.

Blonde On Beige

There's something so classic, simple and calm about a blonde in beige and cream - it conveys a soft, natural beauty. Love how these shots really stick to a tight palette.

Goldilocks

There's something so classic, iconic and healthy about swinging flaxen locks. Both Chloe and Gucci are famous for the blondes they use in their campaigns. And Lily, Abbey Lee, RaquelAnja and Natasha are in high demand. Which is your favorite? The Chloe Girl or the Gucci Girl?
