Lily Aldridge

Token brunette. I love it. Her bod looks sick. Like really, I can't even deal with it at the moment.

her style is so inspiring! ha... seriously i love the way she dresses. LOVE her look.
 
oh no :(
i was hoping to see her party outfit too :D

also i don't know what to think about this all "today i'm wearing" thing; i think it's a great idea, but these pics need to be bigger!
 
no disrespect to the girl afterall she has made it quite far... but would i be wrong to ask why? She's pretty yes but she doesn't scream "model" to me. It's like if i passed her on the street I wouldn't take a second glance also when i look at her body of work it's not that great! I also think that she pales next to the other girls... just my 2 cents!
 
In my opinion she does look like a model, her face was meant to be on magazines etc.
Her body is amazing even though she´s very skinny, but I don´t know any person who´s more beautiful than Lily...
 
Lily is extremely beautiful in my opionion! Anyone who looks as stunning as she does without any makeup on is a knockout in my book.

Today I'm wearing a Phillip Lim top, a pair of vintage Levi cut-off shorts, Isabel Marant booties and an Isabel Marant belt.

Ooo, I like today's look, I liked the previous stuff too, but I like the "differentness" of this.

I don't know what "screams model" to you, but to me Lily probably does sneak up on people. It is easy to dismiss her as a WAG, and of course a lot of people checked her out initially because of VS or her boyfriend but stayed around because of who she is. When it comes to modeling specifically, beauty wise, there is something slightly exotic about Lily's face - her slightly tanned skin, the big, brown eyes and of course there's the hair. Her personality adds to things because instead of being standoffish and cool she comes off as friendly and even goofy at times, the exotic look plus girl-next-door personality brings to mind Cindy Crawford. I think that Lily is a good print model and she has done some good eds and campaigns, but I think that she has not been challenged on this front, my guess is that this is a consequence of being a money-maker since almost the beginning of her career. Models do eds to market themselves for campaigns, but Lily has always gotten campaign and catalog work so there has not been the need to market her that way.
 
^I agree.
I actually respect Lily a lot for being such a determined model. She could have easily gone the "It-Girl" route along with her friends (HVN, Lauren Hastings, etc.) seeing as how she has the background (wealthy L.A. artists family) and the relationships (Incubus guitarist, Jamie Dornan, KOL singer) that could all have led her to just lean back and party for the next 15 years without exactly doing anything noteworthy. I don't think Lily is the best HF model around but as a commercial model she's great and it's admirable she's doing this whole VS thing with such a passion and I'd rather see someone like her with a less obstrusive sexiness about her as a VS spokesmodel than some generic blonde bimbo like you see them in Sports Illustrated and such. To me her success definitely makes sense.
