There’s a new It Girl in town. And she’s part of The Blonde Salad’s gang, too! If you follow Valentina Ferragni on Instagram, you must have noticed that she recently flew to Madrid to be awarded her first international prize: Cosmopolitan España, in fact, celebrated her as the It Girl of the Year at Cosmo Awards.
It’s not always easy to be “the sister of” someone that is very popular, especially if it’s the most powerful influencer in the world. It would have been easy to take advantage of Chiara Ferragni’s visibility, but not for her. Since her debut on Instagram, she only wanted to be recognized as Valentina, working on her passions and her personality. More than 2 million followers are addicted to her profile for her unique sense of style and for all the things she does, such as her trips, her romance with Luca Vezil and her special relationship with Pablo. And Cosmopolitan España completely agrees: with The Blonde Salad!
We already knew that Valentina Ferragni was the “next big thing”. Since the beginning of 2018, Vale spread so many hints about her personal and professional growth on her Instagram posts for her most devoted followers. Do you want to know which events made us realize that she was the coolest It Girl of the moment? Keep on scrolling!
Her Dior looks
For Valentina, 2018 started in the name of Dior. With all the wow looks she wore at Gran Bal Surréaliste in January, at Paris Fashion Week and Dior Backstage makeup event in London, Vale helped us to realize one thing: she wasn’t just a girl with a passion for fashion anymore, but an amazing fashion icon!
Gillette Venus Brand Ambassador
It’s not so easy to become the brand ambassador or a product that is in the house of almost every woman in the world. Valentina Ferragni, as Gillette Venus brand ambassador, taught us to be “Ready in 5 minutes” and always perfect for the next Instagram post.
Coachella Queen
Fashionistas and influencers study for months to be prepared to Coachella. Sometimes results are great, sometimes not. Vale only needed to be herself to be a Coachella Queen: her outfits and beauty looks were the most amazing things we saw wat the festival!
Her trip in Mexico with Luca
What do Valentina Ferragni and her beau Luca Vezil have in common, except super cutie Pablo? Many many things, but above all, a passion for travels. Mexico was their summer destination, and they shared to all their followers everything they experienced through video and pics. Are you wondering why this vacation made us realize how Valentina was meant to become the next It Girl to follow? In some of her stories, she decided to say her opinion about body-shaming, that is something we really care about: “Love yourself, feel comfortable with yourselves and do your best, because it’s so important to improve”, she said on Instagram.
Wonderful bridesmaid at The Ferragnez wedding
Valentina was one of the bridesmaids at Chiara Ferragni’s wedding, sharing this role with her sister Francesca and other friends. Their Alberta Ferretti’s gowns were featured everywhere, even in Vogue America! For Valentina, Chiara and Fedez’s wedding was the chance to show another talent she has: after being a fashion icon, a brand ambassador and a mental coach, she surprised us with her fashion design skill. She co-designed the Twinset Milano evening dress she wore for the rehearsal dinner.
Cover girl for Cosmopolitan España
There are a lot of steps to become the ultimate It Girl. Fashion shows at the beginning, then partnerships, red carpets… The real fashion consecration always has an old-school taste: to become the cover girl of an international magazine! Mission accomplished for Valentina. After giving her the It Girl of the Year award, Cosmopolitan España chose to be its next cover girl. Yes, we always knew she was the next girl to watch!
