TODAY’S MAJOR CRUSH: IZUMI PAULA

“Izumi” is Japanese for spring or fountain, but the true power of the word is in the way it captures the beauty of water. Izumi is also the name of our crush for today, whose strong Asian features hint that there must be Japanese blood in her (or Chinese?). We have always been fans of the distinct Japanese beauty because of its seeming fragility yet showing depth; Izumi, who is a model, must be channeling this seeming dichotomy to come up with different looks for her assignments. Of course, we know crushes like Izumi have some bit of unattainability in them, but we’re working hard to be better guys so we can be in their league!
