My Favorite Beauties of 2012




1.) There's no doubt that my top favorite beauty of 2012 is the lovely and sophisticated Latin-blooded, Ms. Sofia Vergara. What struck me most about this Modern Family actress, Covergirl/Pepsi spokeswoman and Golden Globe/NAACP award winner is her personality. Sweet, cunning, funny and superbly witty, she's an overall 10 in my book. I'd honestly have to say, Modern Family would not be what it is without her.



Can you believe this stunner is a mother?! Well, another interesting fact about her is that she launched her own affordable clothing line that you can snag at any local Kmart! Seriously, not many actresses would do such a thing especially for Kmart, but she did and I truly love her tenacity!



2.) Kate Beckinsale is another favorite of mine that's an English actress with a lovely accent. You'll usually find her playing heroine roles where she plays the action star of movies like 2003's Underworld and 2004's action horror Van Helsing.


Her roles have definitely been a change of pace from all the romantic comedies she has appeared in such as the famous Serendipity. Not only is she an actress, but she is also a model that graces the covers of Maxim's Hot 100 Beauties and People Magazine's Most Beautiful People.

Aside from motherhood, she also contributes her time to charity work as she has one of the most giving hearts in the entertainment industry. She has raised funds for the Woman's Cancer Research Institute, donated memorabilia to the epidermolysis Bullosa Research Foundation, Habitat For Humanity and the Entertainment Industry Foundation. A true beauty indeed with a giving heart.

3.) This long legged beauty is another actress I truly adore. South African born, Charlize Theron definitely amazes me and I find her one of the most graceful actresses out there in the industry. Having been the first African to win an Academy Award in a major acting category in 2003's Monster, she later became an American citizen in 2007 while retaining her South African citizenship.

Aside from her duties as a spokeswoman for J'adore, advertisements by Christian Dior, she is also a Woman's Right activist and has marched in pro-choice rallies. She's also a supporter of animal rights and is an active member of PETA. Since she is also a supporter of marriage equality, her and TOMS Shoes partnered to create a limited edition unisex shoe made from vegan materials and inspired by the African baobab tree. I learned these shoes were given to destitute children and a portion of the proceeds were given to CTAOP (Charlize Theron African Outreach Project).

A natural, graceful actress and activist, she is an inspiration to many in the entertainment and fashion industry. I secretly wished that she was with Keanu Reeves after watching her in Sweet November :)


4.) Now who doesn't love Jessica Alba? Since I was a teen, I've watched her grow to become the true beauty that she is. Throughout my high school years, she has been the sex symbol and love of many male hearts. Just like Kate Beckinsale, Jessica has appeared in Maxim's "Hot 100" and voted number one on AskMen.com's list of "99 Most Desirable Women" as well as "Sexiest Women in the World" by FHM in 2007.

She is a mompreneur that launched The Honest Company which is an online business offering a line of eco-friendly, non-toxic products that boasts ease, affordability and playful design. Aside from mommy-hood and family, she makes time to do charity work which amazes me! Not only has she done a number of charity work, but she has also supported the Democratic presidential hope Barack Obama during the 2008 primary season. An ambassador for the 1Goal Movement to provide education to children in Africa, she has surely gone above and beyond with her work in charity and politics.

These lovelies have certainly been an inspiration to me and many others which is why I've marked them some of my top favorite beauties of 2012. Do any of you ladies have any favorites? Feel free to share if you'd like!
