Edie Campbell for CH Carolina Herrera INITIALS INSIGNIA SOFT SS-2025 Campaign

It’s easy to forget that this visual feast for hungry eyes is a focus on the CH Carolina Herrera brand's signature bags — specifically the newINITIALS INSIGNIA SOFT — presented in an array of jewel tones, metallics, and refined neutrals.

Carolina Herrera and the Business of Relationships

Because AOC just wrote about the enduring relationship between Carolina Herrera ‘Good Girl’ fragrance and supermodel-activist Karlie Kloss, the first thought with Edie is an affirmative ‘yes’. She belongs in this tribe, too. Today both women move in highly-monied circles but take their activist roots and credentials wherever they go.

In 2020 we might have thought that elitism was gone for good — a silly proposition given the nature of human history. A key brand concept going forward is a ‘humble’ elitism and both Edie and Karlie have it.

With riches come responsibilities and both women have accepted what should be expected of them as people of privilege — given their prolific talents, excellent values and access to capital. I mentioned this very concept yesterday regarding the new Louis Vuitton Cruise 2025 campaign.

Robert Downey Jr. Directs His Own Fab Interview for Esquire April-May 2024

Last year Robert Downey Jr. hired the host of the television show ‘My Cat from Hell’ to create Catification Zones on the Malibu property the actor shares with his wife Susan, kids Avri and Exton and cats Monty and two little kittens Willow and Winifred.

Reality is that there are hawks in Malibu and Downey knew he would be kicked to the curb if anything happened to the little felines.

Writer Ryan D’Agostino brings this Hollywood family to life with Robert Downey Jr. Doesn’t See Things the Way You Do in the April-May 2024 issue of Esquire. The actor is styled by Alison Edmond in images by Norman Jean Roy [IG].

Jennifer Lopez Basks in Gorgeosity Lensed by Norman Jean Roy for Vogue Mexico July 2023

Jennifer Lopez photographs well most days of the week, but her Vogue Mexico July 2023 images are particularly gorgeous. They were shot by Norman Jean Roy [IG] the day after last May’s Met Gala.

If Lopez was out partying half the night, we would never know it.

María José Gonzálvez and Angel Emmanuel Ramirez worked with Lopez’s own stylist Rob Zangardi.

It is a true statement to say that Jennifer has earned every inch of her success with merit and a backbone of steel in dealing with the reality that envelopes her then and now.

Not only did Lopez become the first actress with Latina roots to earn a million dollars with the film Selena, or the first woman to have a movie and a No. 1 album simultaneously, she is probably the first Latina woman to know what her worth is in the North American market, redefine it and reclaim it.
