I'm sure regular readers will know by know how excited I get about redheads, fake or natural: after all, I'm a fake, so who am I to judge? So obviously, I got very excited when my fashion partner-in-crime R sent me an email to tell me that one of my favourite models, Coco Rocha has dyed her hair red.
Not only does she have a gorgeous new look (and the worlds best name ever), but her flaming hair is the center of a piece on the glory of redheads in US Vogue January 2009. AND IT'S AWESOME.

"It's such a bold colour that you have to sort of deliver personality-wise. My husband [Jack White] loves readheads. He's always saying "Just flaunt it." "

And while I'm talking about Coco, I should mention that I love the new look at her official site. And she's just started writing a blog called Oh So Coco, too! Oh Coco, well played. I love you even more.
