horrible week in more ways than one. don't really have many details to go into, other than the fact that it has just been horrible. next week will be better.
Diane Kruger
If i could be any girl in the world I think i'd want to be Diane Kruger. Ah, i caught you there didn't i? You think i would say Alexa Chung with her british accent and her rockstar boyfriend. But look at her. Alexa Chung couldn't rock a velvet assymetrical jumpsuit? Diane looks like she was born to wear Chloe, and wear it she does.This outfit is immaculate, i cannot fault it, and this coming from the girl who hates jumpsuits with every fibre of my being (believing that they are, above all else, the ugliest piece of clothing in a woman's wardrobe today). But seeing Diane makes me want to search one. A velvet one no less. And to cinch it in at the waist with a carpet tassel. Such class, such sophistication. I have a feeling she's our generations Grace Kelly. And hey, Prince Harry is on the market again. Who knows. :)
Kate Bosworth
Oh Kate. Where have you been? i've missed you shiny hair and your two-tone eyes. No-one wears clothes quite like you do, as if they just sprung into being on your body. No-one accesorises like you do, with mis-matched metallic shoes and box clutch. No -one can wear a simple white sheath, knotted experimentally at the waist, with the same oomph and pizazz as you do. It takes a class act to wear something so simply so well. She may not be a great actress (but hey, i'll let her happily prove me wrong on that account) but boy the girl can dress.
Leighton Meester
I'm excited at the idea that Leighton might have a Vogue US cover. I much prefer her to the goddess-like Blake any day, her more decadent, more sinful brand of beauty is more to my tastes than Blake's bright-eyed Californian effervescence. She also has a really surprising avant-garde taste. Take this dress for instance, a simple shift made interesting by the huge floral ruffle at the collar, a little Carrie Bradshaw-esque, no? The print is darling, and the shoes are just the perfect counterpoint, picking up the belt and recalling the ruffle with the circular detail on the strap. She's canny about fashion, she has wild and crazy taste, and she knows how to accessorise. Not much more a girl can ask for!
Thandie Newton
I'm not sure if this is actually that recent, but it was posted recently on tFS, and i needed something a little casual to break up all this glorious red carpet stuff. This outfit is perfect. Thandie is a beautiful girl, so she can get away with things mere mortals can't (hello, leather leggings). But aside from that i love the principle of this outfit - mixing silhouettes, textures, colours and shapes to form an interesting, yet casual outfit. I love the way that the sheen of the leather contrasts with the hard cotton of her striped shirt and dull shine of the satin tuxedo jacket. I like the sleeves pushed up over the shirt, and the hem of the jacket hanging longer than the shirt, yet the leggings taking pride of place. And i looooove her 2.55 of course.
TGIF!
