Lacey Nelson, Part 2

"Hey, I'm Lacey. I'm with Wilhelmina," says Lacey Nelson, aka the Current Kohl's Cutie.

This time, we'll let her introduce herself, in her own words.

I grew up in Saskatchewan and moved to Toronto in January 2009 to pursue modeling. I absolutely love the industry and have had so many amazing experiences thus far. I've worked mainly between Toronto (Elite Model MGMT) and Montreal (SPECS). Recently I traveled to Miami where I signed with Wilhelmina models. This summer [2010] I am venturing off to Hong Kong to model for Dreamodels for 3 months. My ethnic background is a combination of Chinese, Swedish, and Polish. I am 5'9" with brown hair and green-blue eyes. My goals are to continue learning more about the modeling industry and be able to travel around the world while doing so. I am open to trying new and creative shoots and shows.

Lacey even has her own website, laceynelson.com. It's beautifully designed and includes her biography, exclusive photos and her own blog. It's a great place to find out the latest news on her.

"They're all cute," Blakely Ashton says in a Delia's commercial. "You can't really go wrong with a pair of Converse [shoes] from Delia's."

Yes, the shoes are cute. But we could say the same thing about Alissa, Bruna, Gigi, Sandra, and especially Blakely.

The lovely Blakely Ashton has worked with Ford Models in New York since 2006. She graduated from her Fresno, California high school in 2009. Soon after, she married her high school sweetheart, changing her name to Blakely Ashton Doulphus. In between life, high school, and marriage, she found time to model for Kohl's, Delia's, and Macy's.

Blakely has an fairly active twitter account where she declares her love for "jesus & fashion," apparently in that order. It's unclear whether she is currently still modeling, but if these photos are any indication, she could have a long bright career in front of the camera.
