I got a New Job!

It might be a made-up job that i will be starting on blogger but anyways. I will be styleing some of my favorite celebs icons. For your enjoyment, i will be doing this for awhile and trying to blog more.
Today's celeb is Sienna Miller. And i have got everything from GAP. I am giving her a chick back from Africa look. Add a sweet button-up.
A light, green sweater will do the trick.

I am trying to find way for those of our friends in warmer climates to still get the same fab look. So to those in warmer climates take these shorts, but all of us in cooler ones will be wearing long skinny jeans.
OK i want this bag so bad! It's so cute!
These leaves would look so sweet!
And finish it with a simple shoe.

Ans btw HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Man, I feel like a woman

In the early 1930's, Hollywood siren Marlene Dietrich (left) stepped out in style. Trouser suit, bow tie and a masculine hat. It was certainly a look that shocked the more conservative. It was not long however when this androgynous style was copied by the mass market and Dietrich was cited as a style icon. Of course, Katherine Hepburn (below) was also famed for her androgynous style, preferring wider trousers and natural make up, unlike painted lipped Dietrich, which made her style even more radical.

Indeed the masculine style is one of those things that is ever in vogue. I am all for dresses and femininity but although it may seem like a contradiction I think there is something very feminine for a woman to stand out from the crowd in an androgynous style suit. It has been said for a woman to step out in a man - style suit is one of the most empowering things a woman can do. I guess people, men and women alike, stand up and take notice.

Fast forward to the late 1970's when cult movie Annie Hall reintroduces women to the notion of wearing mannish suits. The costumes designed partly by Ralph Lauren and worn by Diane Keaton of course, are iconic of both cinematic and fashion history. A decade previously, Yves Saint Laurent designed his women's dinner jacket known as Le Smoking. The 80's obviously saw power dressing at it's maximum, as the Marlene style wide shouldered suit returned.

Iconic fashion moment - Annie Hall, 1977

Yves Saint Laurent's Le Smoking jacket

In 2007, androgyny is still as powerful and fashion foreword as it was in the 30's. Until recently my wardrobe was without a tuxedo jacket, now I can not imagine it without it, especially since androgyny is such a major trend this winter. I'm glad to say too, that it was very empowering to march into the men's section of a department store and purchase a crisp, white, button up shirt. Cue the music for this post's title!

Kirsten works the masculine style, in one of my favourite celebrity looks of the year, bringing the suit right up to the present day. Red lips add extra drama.

Suiting up at Paul Smith Women, Mark Jacobs, Lanvin and Nicole Miller. The suit is one of this seasons biggest trends.

One Little Piggy, Two Little Pigggys(aand maybe more like 10)

Little toes and i am going to steal them and paint them. Yes you read right. I am stealing some celebs(that are listed below) and painting their toe nails. Since, a) I am really bad at painting nails and b) it funner to pick out crazy shades minus the money and the hated act of trying to remove it if it looks funny.
I think that a bright 80's orange will do.
A bronze brown will do on the toes and a nude on the fingers (a shiny nude). A cute rasberry.
Silver and Gold on fingers and toes.

A sparkley sheen pink.
A cute jade will be cuter than any jem.
A think black on the top half and solid pink on the bottom half.
A clear coat with glitter with look fab.
WOW! I don't think i have ever used fingers and toes in a post more. It's just a little fun on a firday night.

Blonde Ambition

So we all love Audrey and Kate, but who else do we consider to be an actual style inspiration? One of my personal inspirations is the bold, Debbie Harry circa late 70's/early 80's, for her quintessential rock - chick style. Debbie, was bold in both her striking appearance and style as well as her music and attitude. Her two tone peroxide blonde hair, wide sculpted face, Monroe pout and endless cheekbones, meant Debbie had one of the most spectacular faces the industry had seen. Indeed it was easy for Debbie to quickly rise to iconic status, as she shamelessly blurred the boundaries between music and fashion.

Debbie - the ultimate in cool, surely the term ' rock chick' was made for her.

What I love about Debbie's style is how effortless it is yet it's the up most in cool. Debbie was certainly a trend setter with her avant garde wardrobe; edgy, punk clothes, with a touch of the urban princess, of course. Lots of 70's night time spangle, slogan t- shirts, skinny jeans, tuxedo jackets, berets, ripped tanked tops, slinky diaphanous dresses, one shoulder pieces, leotards, leggings, super short shorts; the look screamed 'Look at me'. Attitude is the key in pulling off Debbie Harry style. Her success with her band Blondie, where Debbie had a string of hits including - Rapture, Call Me and Heart of Glass combined with her unique but startling good looks along with her daring, vivacious style meant that both music and fashion enthusiasts alike were captivated.

Picture this - Debbie's audacious even brazen style has made her an enduring style icon

Make up wise Debbie was a red lipped vixen, but heavy eyeliner, bright, glossy eye shadow and and a generous sweep of blusher complete the look, which mean a dazzling concoction of drama and playfulness. Hair bleached blonde, of course, and messed up for extra attitude.

Although Debbie has been a style icon of mine with quite a while now, I was inspired to do this post after spending a couple of days poring over the simply gorgeous shoot of Sophie Dahl in the November issue of UK Vogue. Sophie certainly did Debbie justice with her remarkable visual likeness, as did the wardrobe which was just sensational or maybe even atomic, if you pardon the pun.


Sophie channels Debbie with ease

Your Invited To Be The First Wildflower of Fall

So get your ass in gear to find a dress to wear to be invite only ball(that's in my head, so don't really go out and buy a dress). The Teen Vogue party was like a week or two ago and it sparked an idea. Well, what would i wear if i was invited and what wear the greatest hits of the night? So here are the greatest hits of the night....

I love the color and the cut was amzaing. Not the first idea of what i would wear to the party but it's still a cute outfit.
I have no idea why i like it but it way cool to look at.
Such a cool dress. It looks like a waterfall and i want it!
Alll of these girls have the coolest hair ever. It's shiny and wavy and not flat and stick straight like all the girls at school.
Hate theb rown dress but the gold one is super cute and way wildflower browine point.

Man, do i want this dress! It's so vintage and the color is amzaing!

And now, that's review some party dresses that all of us normal people can buy and rock. And as i was looking there was so many dresses that were way dull like in the color black and it was starting to get boring. So please no boring little black dress(ever though i have included them in my list dosn't mean that i totally hate them but these have a little sparkle)......

This one looks like a goddess of the 1930's is wearing it in modern day form. Thsi one is real vintage and i love all the different layers.

This one it so cool to look at and i can so picture Mischa Barton wearing it.

I like how it's so simple nut in a daring color. Do you dare?
Can you say totally Twiggy!
So wimsical and cute!
Could you picture Serianna from gossip girl in it?
This one reminds me of a Vera Wang creation and i love it!


Please no boring little black dressses from all of us bloggers!
