Howdy folks,
This really was supposed to be the first post on my blog but things don't always go according to plan right?. I tend to get carried away a lot.. and I mean alottttt!!!! LOL!! (hey! I'm only human). Right, lets get down to it. If I asked you who your ultimate style icon was, could you give me just one name? .... (I'll wait while you think). It's hard isn't it. I must admit I have a lustful eye when it comes to my love for style icons, I just can't help myself. I go through fazes where I just fall head over heels in love with a celebrity and their style. I mean from Solange Knowles, Natalie Portman, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sarah Jessica Parker to the likes of Kourtney Kardashian. I just love love love Kourtney, Not only is she my favourite K sister but this woman can dressssss!!!. She doesn't play when it comes to her wardrobe. Out of the K sisters, she is the only one that seems to have a natural style of her own, I'm not one to bash people about what trends they chose to follow but Kim K to me just seems like everything she wears has been thoroughly thought out by an army of stylist or her famous rapper boyfriend ( which in my eyes, is never cute.) and lets be honest as much as Khloe is such a loveable character, she really doesn't have a style and if she has, then I can not say i have noticed *yawns*. Kourtney just always bring it out of the bag for me. She just isn't afraid to take risks, Overall, I just love her, maybe its because I see so many of my characteristics in her. This woman couldnt give a damn what you think of her, she isn't fazed by the media world and I love that she seems to know who she is.
OK!! enough gibbering, Over the years I always stray with my lustful eye but there is really only one that has my heart as my style icon. This woman is a force to be reckon with, she is so consistent with her style, Trend setter rather than a follower. It's no other than the only..... VICTORIA BECKHAM!!!!! sigh!!! I mean this woman can do NO wrong in my eyes. Regardless of what you think of this woman, It's undeniable that her style is in a league of its own. When I think of style, Victoria Beckham almost immediately always comes to mind . She owns everything she wears, she wears those garments and never the other way round honey. I adore her even more because not only is she a fashion icon, she is also a designer. Usually when well dressed celebrities make the transition to designer, Its usually a no go area because there isn't usually any real passion there. Most just do it because they can and the outcome is almost always very basic and unimaginative. Not Madame Vicky!!! you only have to see her collection and let it speak for itself. Although I wont be seen any time soon In any of her collections ( Those prices are not for the faint hearted and one can only dream). The biggest dilemma I have, is having a vision in mind but not finding what I want in shops, no matter how high and low I search. I am a woman of many talents but putting pencil to paper and designing sadly is not one of them *sobs*. Admiration to anyone who can put a vision to paper and bring it to life and Mrs Beckham does a darn good job of it. Being a fashion icon and designer must bring so much freedom and who doesn't hate limitations?. The possibilities are endless, you want something that isn't out there, take it to the boardroom and do your magic. Making your wardrobe happy and making some change out of it can't be a bad days work.
