Penelope Cruz for Mango

Penelope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson have a lot in common. Besides starring in one of my favorite recent movies, Vicky Christina Barcelona, the two Hollywood beauties also share a love for Mango. The Spanish retailer just announced Scarlett Johansson will be succeeding our beloved Penelope as Mango's new face. The brand describes Scarlett as the ideal Mango woman: "chic, independent, and cosmopolitan," also stating, "Johansson exudes a confident demeanor while remaining youthful and playful." Tear, we'll miss you Penelope. Johansson will make her first Mango debut in the Fall '09 campaign shot by Mario Sorrenti.

You want to get up close and personal with Penelope Cruz? The Penelope Cruz for Mango Spring '09 ad campaign is your chance. Of all the images Mango and Penelope have created together, this latest one is the most up close, literally. It retains an air of sexiness that's undeniably Penelope, but it also reveals the actress's softer, more sensual side. The pastel colors are sweet and less in-your-face than her previous designs. I'm loving everything I see so far — especially the pink jeans (left), denim jacket, beaded dress, and striped cardigan.

If anyone can make knits and coats look sexy, it's Penelope. After the Summer collection, she's striking a few new poses in Mango's Fall collection. This has me itching for a new Fall wardrobe. Leather jackets, colorful knits, sexy cardigans, and plaid and sheer blouses make up a cozy Mango montage. And once again, Penelope's sultry gaze does the brand justice.

You can already browse and shop the Fall catalog. Blouses hover in the $60-$80 range, dresses are $80-$100, and leather jackets are the most pricey at around $250.

As if we didn't already know that Penelope Cruz is one sexy mama, now we can see more of her feline appeal in Mango's Summer collection. What I love about Penelope as a model is that she's raw, natural, and completely womanly. She's got hips that don't lie and she's not afraid to accentuate them with snug pants. Speaking of pants, there are quite a few in the Summer line: high-waisted jeans, nautical white trousers, denim shorts. There's also bright florals, crisp crochet, studs, and nautical stripes. The prices are also quite reasonable at $29-$129. Seeing how Penelope sizzles in these ads, I can only imagine how these clothes will make me feel once I actually slip them on!
