The 35-year-old Mad Men star, who plays seductive office manager Joan Holloway in the hit TV series, was named as the new face of Viviennes jewellery line last month. The actress says she has so much admiration for the creative genius and cant help but stare at her when shes in the same room.

Oh, a-ma-zing! She seems quite shy though. You wouldnt think that, right? She arrived about an hour ago so Ive only said Hello and Thank you, thank you, youre amazing so far. I feel bad, I dont want to be staring at her. Every time shes in the room Im like, Aah! she told Stylist magazine.

The stunning actress has revealed she has always been in awe of the legendary designer. She says the opportunity to work with her is a dream come true.

I just love her. I would wear her clothes every day if I could. Ive been fairly vocal about the fact Ive been a huge fan of hers for years, so there was no way I wasnt going to do it, she gushed.

Christina who is renowned for her fabulous curvaceous figure - has previously spoken in depth of her love for Viviennes creations. The star has claimed that she has loved her since a very young age.

"She is my favourite designer. As a young girl I would cut out pictures of her dresses from magazines, although I was never able to afford them. Even now I only have one in my closet," she said. (C) Cover Media
