Of course we can all choose to be pious where we please; and yet simultaneously be shitty on other threads...

^So, it was her then... Where's the validation? I'm toiling at the coal-face here! I'm a pioneer!!!

^Nice! (Y) Thank you - but you'll have to forgive my anal-retentiveness in insisting these are posted in higher quality!!!

Don't be a Tyra, everyone has a personality, just not necessarily an excessively outgoing one. At least they don't spit out rehearsed speeches or sleezy-double entendeurs all the time unlike Candice and to an extent Rosie and actually convey a sense of who they are aside from their job as walking-talking Barbie dolls.And Behati, while very charming, is IMO better suited for PINK than VS, which VS seems to have picked up on. ^I'm not debating whether Behati is any good for the 'main' line (or even for PINK). I appreciate that not everybody has the same regard for her as I do. I was simply questioning Pretty's list of VS models who have a personality - and was querying how Lindsay and Erin (and Ale come to that, maybe Ale especially) could get the personality nod ahead of Behati? And god no, I wouldn't wish a Tyra-style personality on anyone! And nor do I mistake brashness or shouting as necessarily passing for interesting. Though, like it or not (and I'm not saying you have to like Behati's personality either), Tyra does have a distinctive persona - even if it is just a self-obsessed, know-it-all, one. Heidi stood out, personality-wise, too; as did Gisele - and more recently Marisa. I don't think I could pinpoint anything in particular about Erin or Lindsay, or even tell their personalities apart except that they seem nice...

More new VS PINK:

So, is this Marloes shooting with Ben Watts in Miami? Sure looks like her anyway: Well, if it isn't, I can always edit this post with an (inevitable) extra new VS shot I found - to add to gosia's fine selection:

^Nice to see a new face... Wedding dresses! Thanking Ophelia for the link:

^Erin and Lindsay have personalities? They've kept those well-hidden! I take your point about US girls appealing to a US audience (and it's always struck me as weird that VS hasn't insisted on more 'homegrown' representatives before, after all it's only recently that they've even expanded into Canada! ) but - and I may be bias - if you're talking personable then Behati takes some beating...

^These are lovely - and in that 5th picture she's even got a little take-out dish of empanadas! New VS, from the browser:

These are VS - new, from the browser: Thank goodness, I was getting jaded there...

^I don't know where you got those from, li'l v - but they're from Next, not VS. And I posted them first here a few weeks (and only a couple of pages) ago now... which runway show is this? don`t know ^Nor me! It says "S/S '07" Paris on the tag - but I couldn't see that coat in any of the shows she was in during that Fashion Week!

[Doutzen Kroes says:] MMMMMMICHAEL*! DOUTZEN WANT!

^Just saw your name there and thought I'd be nosy! Spookily enough am listening to Oracular Spectacular as I type... Woooh!

Matt's an example to us all. Ask yourself, when you look longingly at other forums, WWMLMD? 5 years on the BZ wagon... But the battle is never won - just got to remember that. Stay strong:

I know this is an old shot (by Eric Guillemain), but I don't recall seeing it on an actual cover before?
