Dress Up #3 : Kate Moss

In an attempt to procrastinate this evening I scrolled through all my bookmarked pages. It is fair to say that I forgot about this blog. In a way it was in a state of decay of some sort. Anyway, I wanted to write a post just to get me back into the swing of things. I decided to do a 'Dress Up' because I am a polyvore addict..

In honour of Kate Moss's 40th birthday two months ago I decided to focus on her casual but always cool style. I don't know why but Kate Moss has always been somebody I knew of since I was quite young - probably because she was more often than not mentioned in my mum's gossip magazines.
Dress Like Kate?

As you can see from the above collage Kate has the ultimate cool style. Sometimes I do question her choices but then again she is an international supermodel and I am just a girl sitting on her laptop so I don't really have much say in the matter. Kate manages to pull off anything she wears and makes the whole outfit look like she just rolled into it in the morning. Her wardrobe consists of a lot of monochrome pieces with different textures. I googled her for this and the majority of her outfits were black and white. I never realised how much fur she wore. Lots of leather, lots of heels, lots of smudgy eyeliner and just lots of cool. The collage below has a few of my suggestions to recreate Kate's look. I tried to keep the prices down because if I was trying to dress like her I would want low prices. I'm certain that if you wanted better quality clothing you could find similar styles online. Links for all the items in both collages are below.

Dress Like Kate

Love,
Lily

Dress Up #2 : Florence Welch (12/12/12)

Florence Welch Style
So for today's dress up, I decided to go for the redhead Florence Welch. I couldn't think of anybody to do it on for the past week or so, so I was inspired to do a post on the almighty Flo after I went to see her on her Ceremonials tour on Sunday. She was brilliant. Somebody started a fight and she started shouting at them and everybody started shouting her name. She didn't even wear shoes! Dress up posts are no longer just reserved for Saturdays by the way...  Anyway Florence's style is quite out there but at the same time slightly preppy (I hope she isn't offended by that). She seems to also like wearing long dresses, which I like because many people wear really short skimpy dresses and it just annoys me. I feel that Florence may have been born in the wrong decade because of the vintage look she has going on. Many of Florence's pieces are dark tones that have a brocade pattern. That was me trying to use a lot of adjectives so here is some suggestions on how to dress like Florence Welch. I do appreciate that many of the items are out of a regular person's budget(like me) but we can admire, can't we?
