Mariska Hargitay’s Unmellow Yellow

Posted on September 21, 2008 by gee

Dear Mariska, your beauty is astounding. That color on you looks absolutely FIERCE. You stand out amongst the crowd of black, brown, beige and the random purple, green and the whatever-reds. I’m just not sure if that is so much … Continue reading →
