The bold look was paired with coordinating pants, layered necklaces, and a Louis Vuitton choker. The U.K.-born native accessorized with a pair purple-lined sunglasses. She wore black pointed toe boots with a pair of purple-lined sunglasses on her feet. For her glam, Campbell rocked soft makeup and styled her hair straight down her back with a middle part — a signature look for the star.

Campbell exudes confidence daily, but she spoke out in an interview with British VogueThe February 14th, 2008 issue of ELLE Magazine demonstrates how intense the fashion industry can get.
“I still enjoy it, but it’s nerve-racking … walking with girls who are 18,” she said. “It’s great to be with these young‘uns at my age, but I have to say, at one of the shows I was like, ‘Come on, girls! Get your free! Why are you walking so slow?’”
She went to on to add that she found the whole experience to be more “joyful” when she was walking the runway alongside her “girls,” aka Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford Christy Turlington.
“We smiled. We got to show off our personalities,” she said. “It was an incredible time, but we worked hard. We never claimed to be tired, no matter how many times we changed our outfits or how many shows we did. We all love it and we kept each other’s energy up.”
