FHM’s 89th Sexiest Woman in the World
Posted by Samantha Laura Kaye in 2011 Events, Competitions, Editorial, Lady Kaye, Lingerie, London, Modeling, Personal, Test Shoots on October 6, 2011
FHM South Africa came out with their 100 sexiest women in the world list earlier this year…. and much to my shock and disbelief I was on it!!
Thank you to Rio for bringing me a copy of the magazine, all the way from South Africa so that I could scan in the above photograph as well as the whole page:
Yep – I beat Ke$ha, Selena Gomez, Britney (99 – she barely made it this year), Kim Kardashian, Eva Longaria and a coupe of people I’ve never heard of. I had never entered a beauty pageant before or any sort of competition like this – but thanks to a series of online votes from the interwebs at large I was honoured with an official sexy stamp which I find puzzling, amazing, delightful and with a history of childhood bullying and low self esteem, a tad bizarre.
Thanks… [ Read more ]

Ooh, I Want That!
Posted by Samantha Laura Kaye in Editorial, Vintage on August 18, 2010
The second NoMU poster that I worked on with Robert Miller was with the friendly and fabulous Vicky Sleet.
Like the CTG NoMU poster it apeared at the Woolworths Engine and had a variety of wonderful prizes up for grabs.
Vicky did the styling herself, tracking down a fabulous 50′s style dress, gloves, wig and even shoes that matched her belt. It comes as no surprise to anyone who has visited Vicky’s blog that she would put together a fabulous outfit!
Vicky’s blog that is all about beautiful people, places, designs, stationary and things. Basically she has great taste and celebrates all the things she deems wonderful on her lovely lovely blog. Click Here to check it out. I warn you though, you,re bound to find yourself adopting it’s title and shouting out (to whoever will listen:) “I want that now!”

Storm in a Sweet Rub
Posted by Samantha Laura Kaye in Editorial on July 1, 2010
Better late than never, this was the NOMU Sweet Rub competition poster featuring Cape Town Girl.
I used MAC’s Studio Finish foundation to give her even plastic perfection and mixed together “Rocking Chick” lipstick with “Show Orchid” Lipstick (both MAC) topped off with MAC’s clear lipglass for the loud and proud pout.
Photographer: Robert Miller
Model: Cape Town Girl

Tretchikoff & Me
Posted by Samantha Laura Kaye in Editorial, Gallery Exhibitions on June 28, 2010
For those of you who weren’t at the opening and have not yet seen it, get yourself over to Salon 91 on Kloof Street and check out the Tretchikoff & Me exhibition of vintage Tretchikoff prints, juxtaposed against the contemporary responses (ceramic, printmaking and photographic) of local South African artists. Niklas Zimmer is the featured photographer, and I painted the beautiful ladies he featured in his photographs using a combination of MAC and Chanel concealers and oil-based Kryolan face-paints. I achieved the “water droplets” with tubes of Mac’s clear lipglass. Far more impressive in real life – I suggest you take a wander down Kloof Street and have a look for yourself.
Our Team consisted of:
Photographer: Niklas Zimmer
Lighting Design: Yotam Sandak
Stylist: Bella Knemeyer
Hair and Make-up Artist: Samantha Laura Kaye
Assistant : Penny Youngleson.

Everything’s Gonna Be Okay
Posted by Samantha Laura Kaye in Editorial on May 12, 2010
The 90′s were an awkward decade. They brought us crochet shirts, goa-inspired prints, grunge, flannel (thanks Kurt) and saw the “new age” movement resurrected from the grave that the shoulder-pad clad glam’s of the 80′s pushed it into. However the 90′s was not an entirely “lost” decade trying to find itself in whale sounds. . . on the contrary the 90′s gave its youth the freedom to truly express themselves as fashion turned individualistic (think custom jeans, and T-shirts with a message) and/or counter cultural as tattoos and piercings started to become accepted and popular, along with retro styles as people looked back to the 60′s and 70′s for fashion inspiration. The 90′s also saw an increasing acceptance of homo-sexuality and tolerance. In 1990 the World Health Organization removed homosexuality from its list of diseases and in 1994 South Africa saw an end to Apartheid.
