First Look: The Fabulous Naomi Campbell by Xevi Muntané for Harper’s Bazaar España October 2013

The best things about digital magazines is that I can buy the ones that I want to and flip through most of them on my tablet or laptop for a little change. I couldn't resist buying the October 2013 copy of Harper’s Bazaar España which features Naomi Campbell on the cover and in another beautiful editorial. I searched high and low on the internet for photos and couldn't find any, so I bought a copy of my own.

I admire Naomi even more for the courage that she, Iman and Bethann Hardison have shown in their fight for fairer representation of models of African descent on the catwalks all over the world and in the pages of several mainstream fashion magazines.

Her Royal Fierceness was photographed by Xevi Muntané and styled by Juan Cebrián

When I saw Debra, I couldn't get her image out of my head and neither the exquisite workmanship of the collection.

It had to be the color or was it the music... Puccini's Madame Butterfly, either way I was spellbound and transfixed on the collection.That day the geisha of the East met the geisha of the West in living color.

WHAT'S HAUTE NOW: Stuart Weitzman for Theodora & Callum

"The vintage glamour of style icons, Naomi Sims for VOGUE 1970 and Kellie Wilson (below) for VOGUE 1969 says Spring/Summer Chic"

I'm getting ready for Spring and Summer! My garden is blooming and the weather is getting warmer and I'm ready to enjoy this beautiful weather to come and to me nothing is as versatile as the espadrille. Think of that '60s and '70s vibe.

Born out of a love for collecting beautiful things from all over the world, Theodora & Callum is an accessories-based line featuring scarves, jewelry, shoes and bags inspired by their travels. Drawing inspiration from Morocco, Bali, Turkey, India and the Mediterranean as well as the bon vivant mentality of the late 60’s and early 70’s European jet-set, each style feels as if it has been discovered in a far-off locale.

The shoes and bags, manufactured by Stuart Weitzman, incorporate the line’s signature prints, and have an international, ageless appeal. Effortlessly city or beach chic, they are certain to become classics. View the rest of the collection here.
