burberry and boyf give rosie besos May 19, 2008 8:30 pm >>  She's been rumored to be the new Burberry girl ever since she showed up on Christopher Bailey's arm at the Costume Institute Gala earlier this month, but on Saturday, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley appeared at the Agent Provocateur-sponsored Life Ball in Vienna, boyfriend Tyrone Wood in tow.  She definitely fits the Burberry model type: up-and-coming, British, and with rocker appeal — she can thank Tyrone for the last one — he's the son of a Rolling Stone.    *image: source
