In the ‘Girls Allowed’ editorial for Vogue UK March 2010, Dutch supermodel Patricia Van der Vliet looks like a child who is about to have a temper tantrum over not getting a new pair of shoes at the mall.
Van der Vliet, who was a finalist on ‘Holland’s Next Top Model,’ sports powder-puff pastel ruffled dresses, chunky jewels and an oversized bow to tame her curly locks. The spread is all about pretty and girly for spring, although I think you have to be 12 to pull this look off.
