Celebrity Style Profile:Sienna Miller


Sienna Miller's style can be described in one word:effortless.Some celebs who will remain nameless try a wee bit too hard to be a "style icon".While,all Miss Sienna has to is throw on a casual outfit and make it her own.Her look is heavily influenced by the boho-hippie culture.So there's a lot of beads,fringes,necklaces,quirky hats,long chained bags,color and RayBan wayfarers!!!

Boys have style too.



At Milan Fashion Week Gucci scurried from late year's look of Boho King to a more sophisticated and elite gentleman(a la Chuck Bass?)



Frida Giannini cleansed the Gucci palette for spring/summer 2009 with a light, fresh collection filled with embroidered and striped suiting, open-weave knits and stand-out Hawaiian prints.



Imagine every shade of blue, creamy whites and hot pinks working harmoniously in an array of outfits.Your dream just come true with the Gucci Men Spring/Summer Collection.



Within a formal silhouette that stuck largely to a suit-shirt-skinny tie-super sized leather tote formula, it was colour and print that added the typically cheeky Gucci wink.
Whether it was a leather bomber jacket,white jeans or funky rebellions it provided just the right amount of rock n roll rebellion.

Who wore it better?



Gossip Girl star Blake Lively wore a uber cute Rag& Bone tunic out on a date with bf Penn Badgley in NY.Well,a few days later C-list actress Cameron Diaz was spotted in the same tunic with some dude.

It's a hot date dress...apparently :-]

Who wore it better?
I'll have to go with Blake.She could look gorgeous and effortlessly chic in aluminum foil and duct tape.Her accessories are MUCH more coordinated than Cameron's.

Sneak Peek: Alexander Wang Resort Collection 2009



It' that time again to drool and heave over all of the designers'resort collections.Well,Mr.Alexander Wang had to be thinking about "a girl that lives on a boat that won't dare tip a toe into the ocean".His 2009 Resort Collection is magically nautical,classy and ultra feminine.



Ok,I'm not a fan of ANY shade of orange but this tiered low cut dress is gorgeous.The cinched waistline is extremely flattering to all body shapes.This is a mini-dress any girl can wear on the poolside sipping on some lemonade.



So many celebrities and people at school have been rocking this look:Over sized blazer,tank,short-shorts and glads.The only exception in this Wang ensemble is the sky high platform shoes.



Audrey Hepburn meets Mary Kate Olsen.



Upcoming Seniors(like me!),except the 'It' prom dress to be Grecian goddess esque.



All hail the captain.Hats especially super over the top hats have never been so fashionable&(convenient)now.You guys know how I feel about the adryongous look,it's a trend that won't fade in the near future.Indulge,add a fedora,blazer,oxfords,suspenders,leather bracelets,etc to a girly outfit.

Celebrity Beauty Profile: Natalie Portman


Miss Natalie Portman apparently has it all.Good looks,Brains,Talent,A hot boyfriend,Fame,Money&...flawless skin.Well you can have something that Miss Portman has.Peep the tips for smooth skin below.

Step 1:
For Natalie's smooth-looking skin, start with a lightweight, vitamin-filled moisturizer. Dab foundation on your forehead, nose, and cheeks and blend. Finish with a pressed powder and a touch of blush


Step 2:
Blend a light-reflecting eye brightener underneath your eyes and near the outward corners. Then line with a shimmery pale green and taupe shadow (don't forget the inner corners, and underneath your lower lashes!). Add two strokes of a volumizing mascara to lashes.


Step 3:
Keep lips simple 'n' supple with your fave clear lip plumper or a sheer, pale-pink gloss.

The Girl of the week...

IS...

Name: Isabella Clarisse

Age: 17

Where are you from: Los Angeles, California

Describe your style in three words: off-beat, feminine, beautiful

Quote to Live by: "An actor should never be larger than the film he's in." -Christian Bale

"I love coconut because when you think your done eating coconut, 25 minutes later, a little piece of coconut comes back out of your mouth, and then you say, "Hey! It's more coconut!" I think any food with that kind of determination needs a little respect." - John Mayer

Fashion is... absolutely anything you make it. Wear what you want, when you want, don't be afraid to wear something, someone will like it I guarantee it.

Your style inspiration/icon... my inspiration comes from what I'm feeling at the moment...usually strange impulses or from clothing my my friends would never consider wearing. If I'm getting a strange look...I've done my job!

Your favorite piece is...black dresses!!!!! I could live in them! And vests!!!!

What are your TOP 3 springtime must haves? cutesy floral sun dresses, the perfect pink lipsticks/glosses/stains, and I am currently on the hunt for the perfect pair of sandals

Any shout-outs? Hmmm... to Rosalina Raine, and Jasmine Katarina :) And to all passionate peeps that may be reading this !!

"Live high, live mighty, live righteously." - Jason Mraz

What do you think about Isabella's off-beat& original style?
Sound off x !

Congrats Bella,you had some heavy competition =]

Celebrity Style Profile: Agyness Deyn




While Agyness has been dropped from Burberry (for apparently being over exposed) and she's also sporting a trend that's popped up a lot lately. It's the ripped denim trend of course.

I'm speechless.Honestly,Aggy is the only person that I can think that can make this...work.

Eh,still fugly.
The fashion industry doesn't need (anymore)unattractive 80's trends.

x

Accessories are key...

We all have those days when you just can't find any inspiration.Your outfit is dull and you feel dull.Maybe what you're really lacking is -accessories. A beaded headband and a long necklace can add something to a common graphic tee,skinnies&flats look.TIP:Don't over accessorize,it's not cute.Like Coco Chanel once said,always take off one thing before you leave the house.

My bargain (accessories) finds:



Retro Print Headbands.'Nuff said.



These unique statements studs are from Heritage 1981,the baby sister of Forever 21.It's just $4.50!!!



I love this! It is the territories pendant(32") necklace.I love the colors and the texture of the beads.This piece is so versatile.I can definitely see myself wearing this a white tee,denim cutoffs,bangles,glads and a large hobo bag.




Wow,I'm really doing the bohemninan thing lately.Anywho,this turquuse ring can only be found at Urban Outfitters for a debatble price of $18.Is it worth it?



Wow,this bracelet is gorgeous.It's the "Anissa Studded Bracelet" from Forever 21.This gorgeous,gorgeous bracelet is five antique metal filigree plates with faceted bead strung on elastic.
F21 loves us all so it's only...$7.80(final sale,btw).

Happy Accessorizing!
:-)
