English term or phrase: being aspirational but attainable
Yasmin is still as in demand as ever; the “noughties” have seen no slow down with campaigns for Chanel and Moet et Chandon and a cover of British Vogue in the Summer of 2007. There is a tangible sense of being aspirational but attainable about this most beautiful of women; Beauty giant Avon saw this when they invited Yasmin to be the face of the brand this year.

Thank you for your help in advance!
