Now, if I would have to answer the question, “Whose your BIGGEST girl crush?” Suki Waterhouse would make the cut. I am amazed by this 24-year-old model, actress and photographer. One thing that strikes me the most about Suki, is her gorgeous eyebrows. Having bold, full eyebrows is something that I want to master with my own.

Suki started her modeling career at the age of 19. I can’t even imagine having anything highly significant like a modeling campaign at such a young age. She has modeled for Vogue, Elle, H&M, is one of the faces for Burberry and so many other companies.

Suki’s outfit/photo reminded me of different brown textures with a hint of green. It took me quite a while to figure out what recipe would be ideal for this outfit. I tried my hand at making biscotti, which tasted delicious, but I will have to tell you food photographers/fashion photographers, taking pictures of biscotti is a pain in the a$$! That idea had to be thrown out the window. I quickly got my bearings together and came up with a scrumptious, healthy salad recipe. So, without further adieu, I introduce you to…
