Photographed without a scrap of make-up...

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Miranda Kerr, Candice Swanepoel - and most of the world's most famous models, in fact - were photographed without a scrap of make-up by casting director Douglas Perrett early in their careers, and now he's made a book about it. Wild Things documents all of his favourites: from the Victoria's Secret Angels to the world's most in-demand catwalk models - from Joan Smalls, to Lindsey Wixson, to Abbey Lee Kershaw.

"Wild Things is a hash tag we use on our twitter feed for every model we feature; a revolving door of the new faces looking for their big break in New York City," Perrett told us. "The book is a catalogue of my favourite go-sees from 2000 - 2010. Polaroids are a dated archiving system. Now everything is digital and laser prints, takes a little longer and is not as eye-pleasing."

Gabriel Mann´s Amazing Race Through Fashion And Revenge

Howdy dear readers!

I just realized I only need one more follower till I hit the magic 300!!! Go spread the news and make some PR for my blog!

I didn't take enough time for proper posting lately. This happened for several reasons.... My private life is keeping me busy, in a wonderful way though! Plus work seriously drains me so when I get home at night I don't feel like sitting down in front of the laptop and spending more time trying to be creative.
Promise that'll change, though ;)!

I keep up my healthy eating 85% of the time! Plus I keep my workouts going! Yay!
Since Christmas I've already dropped around 18pounds! I'm so happy!!!!
Best thing: one day when I ran out of clothes (laundry takes too much time sometimes... Especially when there are so much more nicer things to do!)... Ok I ran out of clothes for several reasons ;)) so I grabbed a pair of jeans leggings I didn't fit in for more than a year.
AND: THEY FIT AGAIN!!!!! Yaaaay!

So that gives me extra motivation to keep up my current lifestyle!

So what's this post about? Weird title, I know.

Lately I'm hooked up to 2 TV shows. Seriously addicted to them.

#1 Amazing Race
Y'all know I live in Germany, this show doesn't air over here. But my friend M hooked me up with all seasons that aired so far! I'm addicted!!!!

Right now I'm watching season 4. Best so far is still season 1! Guidos. Nuff said. Bitches.
I was watching another newer season, too. The one with the Globetrotters, the Goths, Cowboys... This one rocked as well!

#2 Revenge


Nope, doesn't air in germany as well! I found out about this show cause I'm following (yep, still) "Brothers&Sisters" on Facebook. One of my all time favorite TV shows!

Ok, so a few months ago they posted the teaser of "Revenge" since Emily VanCamp is the main actress.



I loved the teaser so I started watching it.
Great show so far!

My favorite character is Nolan Ross!!! At first I didn't like him, but during the first 10 episodes he kicked butt and Gabriel Mann is a great actor!!!
While doing some research today, I found out he isn't just an actor. He's a fashion model as well!

 Look at these awesome pics:
