Whose brows are these?

Whose brows are these?

Which divine British brunette is the owner of these deliciously full brows? Do they look good enough to eat … or like they should be framed and sold for a ridiculous sum at an art auction? OK, enough clues for you.

Figured it out? Hear the brows’ owner here until Sunday.

The Other Eyebrow Chronicles

September 23rd, 2009

I never saw this before in my life — honest, guv’nor! Then again, I never thought I was the first person to put the the words The Eyebrow Chronicles together either. Most combinations of words one can easily think of have probably been said or written at one time or another. It’s the whole infinite monkeys thing.

I had a variant on this conversational theme with my friend G when we were at university. We wondered what culinary pairings had never been thought of before. You know, if you sent an infinite number of monkeys to Sainsburys and gave them a kitchen, how long would it take them to invent beans on toast? I suggested the Spam and fontina sandwich. We never tried it.

Doesn’t Liz Taylor have an amazing pair, though? And Rachel Alexander! That’s a look that I endure considerable pain trying to avoid. But she’s a supermodel. Different rules apply.

Here she is looking more groomed. I like the flapper bob and the length of her fringe. The lips are a bit too corpse-y for my taste.

Muse.
