Two Middletons down, one to go. Us Weekly reports that Duchess Kate’s headline-grabbing little sis, Pippa, is finally off the market.

Trends in Modeling
There is a huge trend right now to cast real people. A trend thats been happening this last season which is not using the typical “model” for campaigns. its using interesting people- DJ’s, artists, stylists, designers, philanthropists, photographers, bloggers etc. Jennifer Represents represents Langley Fox H semingway who in addition to being a hemingway is gorgeous and an amazing artist www.langleyfox.com but people book her because shes a gorgeous illustrator. Brands are lookikng for something more…interesting people that consumers identify with. that people say- that could be me. its a more aspirational approach as opposed to using the typical model. its actually really inspiring. You can see this in the gap holiday campaign, and more.
