on the racks: cindy crawford does instyle

I remember growing up when I knew nothing about models, celebrities, or fashion beyond the newest, coolest, velvet leotard, I knew of one model: Cindy Crawford.

I think my mom used to tell me that my "beauty mark" on my nose was beautiful, and would prove it by showing me pictures of Cindy Crawford, as if I resembled her in any way.

Anyway.. She seems to be out of the main spotlight these days, but that's not keeping her out of InStyle Magazine next month.

She's not the cover girl, for whatever reason, but she's all over the inside talking about how to stay beautiful.

"...I don't want people to say, 'WOW you're make-up looks great!' That's actually an insult. I'd prefer them to say 'You look great.'"

Let's take a look at the last time she was on the cover of InStyle back in 1995:

I'd say time has made her better... Agreed?!



She's absolutely the definition of beautiful. Just sayin'.

Growing up, I think Cindy Crawford was the only name that I knew to associate with "supermodel." Now that I'm older and know more about all this stuff, I rarely hear anything good about her, but I guess that's because she got older too, huh?

Well, she's featured on Allure Magazine for the month of April, and the pictures are, well, different, if you will.

For some reason, someone thought a robot brushing her teeth, ripping a loaf of bread, and hanging from her ponytail would be good looks for the girl with one of the most famous birthmarks.






I don't get it. What is attractive about these pictures? And what the funk are they supposed to be representing/portraying?! I'm no photography genius, but I'm not sure there's a "genius" behind these, either.

And if those weren't enough to lure people in, they decided to do the typical covered in shaving cream-ish picture. [Click the pic to see the not-so-G-rated version.]


Maybe there's more to find out within the article, but I'm officially creeped out, and I'm hoping that's NOT what they were going for.
