Carine Roitfeld is Taking Over.

If you didn't know, now you know. The top European editor and head of French Vogue Carine Roitfeld is making herself a person to be reckon with (if she isn't already). Her influential and powerful position in the fashion industry has attracted her enough publicity that she was feature in a series called "Revealed" produced by CNN.
"Carine Roitfeld: Revealed" as titled, illustrates on how Carine spends a regular fashion week; meeting at the office, picking the new cover for the upcoming issue, attending shows, mingling with celebrities and mutual colleagues, and going to parties and special events.
The high-key documentary has appearances by Peruvian photographer Mario Testino and top designers such as Mr. Lagerfeld, Tom Ford and former Dior Homme maestro Hedi Slimane. Moreover, throughout the clip there is a sense of competition between head of USA Vogue Anna Wintour and Roitfeld, which is not news, but there are already rumors that Carine may be replacing Anna when she retires, but by the end of the documentary Carine confesses that her soul belongs in Paris, and has no plans into editing any American mags.
I love this women for her strength and her strong sense of style, her confidence exuberates through her sexy accent and sleek figure, for some reason that half messy half combed hairdo turns me on. It's like if waking up in the morning with the girl of your dreams and her hair is kinda messy and all over the place, like that.
(Carine, I'm single, call me...)
Seriously though, this women is turning into a fashion icon if she's not already one and one of the best fashion editors the industry has veer seen ( sorry, Diana Vreeland).
