# Seemingly Ageless Ex-Teen Idols Brooke Shields in Vanity Fair Italy December '08 By Sandra Winn | Published 2008-12-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seemingly-ageless-ex-teen-idols-brooke-shields-in-vanity-fair-italy-decembe References: [celebhotpics.wordpress](http://celebhotpics.wordpress.com/2008/12/22/brooke-shields-in-vanity-fair-italy-december-2008-no-49/) Known since she was a teen model for her [long and flowing brunette hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/streax), thick eyebrows and sex appeal, Brooke Shields proves she's still 'got it' in Vanity Fair Italy's December 2008 issue. Shields looks absolutely hot wearing a [shiny black mono-kini](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat). It's quite obvious though that photoshopping was used because I do not think her waist is *that* tiny. Also missing are her negligible crows feet and slight smile lines. Regardless, even outside of photoshopping magic, Shields is a [beautiful 43-year old actress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/becauseofmyage), wife and mother of two. Brooke Shields has been seen in quite a few magazines lately but often with her children. This issue of Vanity Fair Italy December '08, in my opinion, offered Shields an opportunity to let loose and release her ultra-sexy side once more.
