Chrissy Teigen, model and style icon
A model, TV commentator, blogger and cookbook author, Chrissy Teigen is also known for her fashion sense and cool sunglasses.
Chrissy Teigen got her start as a model at age 18. Her career took off when she was named “Rookie of the Year” in the 2010 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Teigen has also appeared as a model in a variety of fashion magazines including Cosmopolitan, Glamour and Italian Vogue.

Chrissy Teigen and Quay sunglasses
In the summer of 2019, sunglasses brand Quay Australia partnered with Teigen to create the Chrissy x Quay line of sunglasses.
This line of fashion-forward sunglasses included:
After Hours sunglasses – Modern, edgy square sunglasses that come in black and tortoise frames.
Gold Dust sunglasses – Fun, oversized rounded square sunglasses with pink-and-tortoise frames.
Jezabell sunglasses – Gold-rimmed round sunglasses that offer an updated take on a classic style.

Chrissy Teigen on Instagram and Twitter
Teigen is active on both Instagram and Twitter. Instagram is a great place to follow Teigen’s style, family life and career while her tweets are a window into her thoughts and opinions.

On Twitter, @chrissyteigen tweets a lot and isn’t afraid to share her thoughts and opinions on topics ranging from the coronavirus vaccine to the right way to make a spicy chicken sandwich.
She briefly left Twitter in 2020 after a spat about her Cravings food site, but quickly returned to her 13.6 million followers.
She most recently tweeted an apology to Courtney Stodden for online bullying years ago when Stodden was 16 years old. Chrissy Teigen tweets that she’s “ashamed and completely embarrassed” at her past actions.
John Legend and Chrissy Teigen
Chrissy Teigen is married to musician John Legend. The couple met while filming the video for Legend’s song “Stereo.” Teigen played the role of a “crafty, bold and beautiful” woman named Melanie in the video.
John Legend and Chrissy Teigen got engaged while on vacation in the Maldives and were married at Villa Pizzo in Italy in 2013. The couple’s wedding took place in front of picturesque Lake Como. For the ceremony, Teigen wore an ivory Vera Wang ball gown with a tulle skirt.
The model and the singer had a daughter, Luna, in 2016 and a son, Miles, in 2018. The couple was expecting a third child, Jack, but Teigen had a miscarriage in September of 2020. The next month, Teigen wrote a Medium post about the heartbreak of losing her baby, and she thanked fans for their “extreme kindness” during the ordeal.
Cravings by Chrissy Teigen
Chrissy is more than a model and TV personality; she is also a food blogger and cookbook author known for her banana bread recipe.
The model got her start as a recipe developer when she debuted her food blog, So Delushious, as a creative outlet in 2011. In 2016, she published a cookbook, “Cravings: Recipes for All of the Food You Want to Eat.” And in 2018, she came out with a sequel, “Cravings: Hungry for More.”
In addition to her famous banana bread, popular Chrissy Teigen recipes include french toast with a sour cream-strawberry swirl, cheesy guacamole, garlic butter salmon, grilled lamb chops and spicy lemon pasta.
In fact, Teigen may be as famous for her tasty recipes as she is for her fashion-forward sunglasses.
