Gwen Stefani's Street Style

Gwen Stefani has a look that is all her own--and she never apologizes for it. Good thing she always looks fabulous. She's always sporting her signature red lip and platinum blonde hair. It's not every woman that could pull off a look as bold as that...its only Gwen Stefani.

Style Highlights: Leighton Meester

Leighton Meester star of Gossip Girl and blossoming movie star. She has a unique sense of style that critics either love or hate. This blog post will give you the chance to decide. Do you adore or abhor Leighton's style? Tell me in the comments below!

Seeing Leighton in this Missoni dress and cardigan made me fall in love with the brand all over again. No lie! She looks comfy and warm and comfortable in her own skin. Sometimes I see her on the red carpet and she looks a little out of place but her she looks stunning! I wouldn't change a thing.

This Versus mini is so adorable. Its structured cut makes it fashion while its monochromatic fabric makes if very main-stream. Leighton's hair looks so healthy and refreshed. And I adore those gemmed heels she's wearing. Have to admit I'm a little jealous.

At first I wasn't convinced with this LV gown. I thought it should've skimmed the floor but now I'm completely obsessed with it! The beading and the ombre effect is stunning. Why did I want to change it in the first place? Plus the shoes are so chic peeking out from under the hem. I love.

Not every woman could pull off a sequined floral minidress, but somehow Leighton can. I love the fuschia lip that compliments the red buds on her dress beautifully. The simple strappy heel was genius and keeps the look from being a bit too costume-y.

Thank you for reading, supporting, and following. I'm so excited for some future events and giveaways that I have planned. Please check back tomorrow and I'll see you then! Don't forget to follow!

Rihanna + Miu Miu Peep-Toe Booties

Rihanna is a risk-taker. I don't think anyone would argue that point. Her style is so versatile and unpredictable. Lately Rihanna has been spotted around town with her Miu Miu peep-toe booties. And they're adorable. I want a pair of my own!

Rachel Zoe Style Moments

Good morning. Lately I have become obsessed with twitter. I find it annoying when people tweet about every, single, little thing and so I try not to overwhelm the very few people actually do follow. But that hasn't been easy. I always find myself wanting to tweet something but I hold myself back. Anyway, today's post is on one of my favorite Bravo darlings, Ms. Rachel Zoe.

Rachel pairs her effortless blonde locks with a simple, yet incredibly chic, Louis Vuitton outfit. I adore the simple brown, feathered, belt to cinch in her already incredibly small waist. The navy cropped pants are the perfect length to show off Rachel's utterly chic black patent pumps. Next, Rachel goes for a mono-chromatic look in this gorgeous floor-sweeping gown. Even with all that fabric, Rachel doesn't let the dress overwhelm her tiny frame. A simple pair of colorful earrings and an oversized clutch complete the look.

Rachel Zoe looks etherial and light in this beatuifully simplistic assymetrical gown. With chic strappy silver pumps peeping out from the line to effortlessly compliment the dress' beautiful stripes of shine, this look is stunning. Subtle makeup and a clutch complete Rachel's signature boho look. And whoever said that glitter only belongs on a disco ball never saw Rachel like this. She is young and fresh in mettalic. A no-gloss bold red lip is a perfect choice as it doesn't compete for attention with her one statement piece. Simply stunning.

That is today's post. I cannot wait for The Rachel Zoe Project to return to Bravo. But I will miss Brad. I don't think anyone could ever replace him. Don't forget to follow my blog or check out my Twitter account. Thank you all for reading my blog. I really appreciate it.

Today's Inspiration: Louis Vuitton

I was browsing one of my favorite websites, we heart it, and became inspired by the brilliant Marc Jacobs and his work at Louis Vuitton. Today I am going to sit at home in my pj's for the rest of the day. Ever woken up and just felt super tired. That's how I feel today.

Hot pink Louis? Yes, please!

Stylis car. Stylish building. Stylish clothes.

Blonde girl in LV tights.

Pinkberry and Louis Vuitton...yum!

So chic in the street.

French fashion and technology. My two favorite things.

Pretty in pink and blush. Thanks, Louis Vuitton!

I hope that you guys enjoyed. This is just a little inspiration for your day. Please follow my blog through Google Friend Finder or Bloglovin! I would be so grateful. :) Oh, and I have a Facebook page so please become a fan.

Veronica Frye Boots

Lately I have been on a blogging roll. Do you know those days when you're just inspired to write blog after blog? But today's post is about how Ashley Tisdale styles her Veronica Frye Boots. Excuse her changing hair color. Do you prefer her as a blonde or a brunette?

The Lara Stone Age

Lara Stone. The name holds big weight in the fashion industry. For those who might be unfmailiar with her work, she is a Dutch model who has graced runways all around the world. There was a bit controvesy a few months ago in Australia after her ad for Calvin Klein Jeans was banned because it was "suggestive of rape and violence".

What do you think? But Calvin Klein ad aside, there is no denying that Lara Stone is a force on the runway.

I adore Lara's look. Her pale blonde hair. Her gap. Her wobbly walk. Her uber confidence. In stills Lara looks so sure of herself but when she was interviewed by Vogue Paris, Lara was reported of saying that she does not like runway. That with her small feet she's always afraid of falling and as she's walking she thinks to herself, "Do not fall, do not fall."

What do you think of Lara Stone? Does she deserve the title of 'one of the best models of the past decade'? Your thoughts and opinions are wanted and appreciated! :)

Alexa Chung's Street Style

Alexa's style is young, funky, and very British. I adore British fashion. :) Just spending the day writing blog posts as I further procrastinate doing my winter break homework. I hate it when teachers do that. But I am determined to finish it all before Christmas. Wish me luck and without further ado, let's get into it.

Alexa Chung in a cream sheath [left] and Louis Vuitton [right].

Alexa looks so sweet in this first look. The simple cream sheath is a minimalistic approach to girly. She picked a dress that is a simple cut and simple shoes. Her hair is pushed back from her face with navy blue headband--the color compliments her skintone beautifully. She completes the look with square-shaped purse. Small enough to hold essentials--keys or makeup

.

This Louis Vuitton look is all about contrast. The tweed contrasts with the military green pockets wich contrast with the deep red oversized purse. All of the colors are in the same color family--dark, warm tones--and the contrast while complimenting each other. That doesn't make much sense does it? But I guess that's what's great about fashion--it doesn't always make sense. :)

Alexa Chung in a yellow romper and military-style jacket [left] and Chanel [right].

Alexa's smart style takes a turn for the tom-boyish. She paired a simple yellow romper with a military-style jacket. The look is cool for hot summer days--don't I wish those were still around. Her shoes are flat--made for comfort--with a ballet-inspired detail around Alexa's ankle. She completes the look whith a simple black quilted across the body bag. This is how to look when spending time in the heat. 

Alexa Chung and Chanel go hand in hand. Isn't that Chanel bag just stunning. I want it in my closet! Alexa appears prim and proper from the waist up with her simple grey jacket and sheer white top but on the bottom Alexa is a little sexier. It is all lace and polka-dot tights. Printer tights are a simple way to make a normal everday look more fashion. 

Speaking of all things British, I'm currently watch Law & Order: UK on OnDemand. :) I'm so excited! I adore crime shows and I just love listening to people with accents--I live in Northern America and there aren't a lot of British people where I live. Although there are quite a few Australians, I'm not quite sure why though. What is your favorite TV show at the moment?  

How To: Wear Bold Color

The moment I saw Carey Mulligan in her bright, cobalt heels I knew that I had to post about those bad boys. And then I started to noticed that lately celebs have been loving adding a burst of unexpected color to their outfits with this electric color.

Whether you want to add a pop with shoes both Heidi and Carrey know that these velvet cobalt pumps are the perfect accessory for their very color-less looks. A bold shoes is unexpected as they normally play a supporting role in outfits but these two looks are perfection.

Clemence Poesy in Louis Vuitton [left] and Blake Lively in a Pucci jacket and cobalt pants [right].

If shoes are too subtle for you, there are always skirts and the less obvious option--pants. Clemence looks wonderful in her bold skirt and sub-dued top and shoes. Then Blake looks stunning in her bright cobalt capris and padded shouldered golden jacket. People often forget about their bottom half when they're searching for ways to add color.

A cobalt jacket is a celeb favorite. Choose a jacket that is fit properly. It will draw the eye to the top half of your body, giving you the chance to camoflauge any unwanted imperfections with black jeans. Throw on a white or black tee and the look is complete. Simple and effortlessly chic.

And this is the end of today's session. Leave any suggestions in the comments. They're really appreciated. And I'd like to thank all of my readers. Especially all the ones who have been with me from the begining. Thank you! And follow if you want to.
