Photographer: Alasdair McLellan
Model: Lara Stone

Lara Stone makes me want to cut off my head from my neck, place a photograph of her own face on a stick, and hold it up to where my head used to be. She just has that kind of effect on people. Actually, I'm pretty obsessive about Lara, so maybe I'm the only one who feels that way.
We have a few things in common body-wise, which is always helpful for the reader of a magazine and the designer that model happens to be wearing; if the reader can see themselves as the model, wearing the clothes, then they will be more likely to buy them. So, whenever I see Lara in a magazine, whether it is a editorial or ad (after I freak out, of course), I usually can see myself in those designer clothes. One, because we have the same chest size, which is always helpful when you (I'll try to be modest/discrete), well, have slightly huge boobs. Next, we have the same eye color (brown), another plus, when about 80 percent of models today have blue eyes. And, finally comes the hair, which replicates mine exactly. The only difference is that Lara has razor cheekbones, killer legs, pouty lips, and is probably a foot taller than myself. However, I try to overlook those things because she's awesome and is pretty hot right now, appearing in almost every Vogue magazine available to her.
