Inspiration

Ugh, soooo much make-up work from last week to do... I still have 6 tests to make up. I decided I'd take a break from all the crazy studying to do a bit of blogging, though. Ah, I'm one of those crazy people who absolutely loves this weather; freezing cold with snow on the ground. There's nothing I love more than curling up in a blanket with some hot cocoa and a good book... which I am in desperate need of, by the way. This year has been so stressful in terms of schoolwork that I've barely had any time to read any good literature. Hmm, I'm really in the mood for a piping hot bowl of soup for dinner tonight, perhaps some minestrone or clam chowder? Yum.

Anyways, I decided that since I didn't have time to take any outfit pictures today (besides, I kind of dressed down), I'd do a post on celebrity fashion inspiration. Alexa Chung has become a recent inspiration of mine, I love her tomboyish, relaxed style.


(On the set of her show, It's On With Alexa Chung)
I love the simplicity of this outfit, and the detailed necklace pulls it together beautifully. The heels look like they'd be a bit hard to walk in, but they're super cute.


This is a fantastic outfit for a casual event such as a get together with friends; casual but still stylish. I'm really into stripes right now, and the layered necklaces make the outfit stand out.


This outfit is a perfect mixture of a dressy item (the wool blazer) with casual items (a simple mini and striped tank) to create a cool feel that is still relaxed.


This is one of my favorite outfits... first of all, I love the mixture of the hippie headband with the preppy cardi to create a unique feel. She has a fantastic way of pulling together her outfits using just the right accessories, and never seems to over-accessorize.



Okay, I absolutely love these shoes, the cap toe is adorable, and the buckles put a spin on a classic shoe. I love that she an take something simple like this blue button up, putting her own twist on it with an ornate brooch and a great necklace.


Again, the necklaces just completely pull together the outfit, I love the spin she puts on the average necklace by layering them.


I think I'll do some more celebrity inspiration posts on some of my other fashion icons sometime in the future, but this is it for now. Hope you all have a wonderful day and rest of the week... fingers crossed for more snow!
