Street Style - Mollie King

Mollie King is my new style crush! She is from "The Saturdays" (a British girl band for those of you non-UK peeps).

Street Style - simple casual girly chic with a trendy edge. Usually seen wearing mini-dresses and skirts with chunky heels to show off her long legs ... "over sized sunglasses, over sized handbag carried at the elbow" look.















She has evniable street style. I like how she isn't all "branded out" and most of her outfits can be recreated in H&M. My favorite look?



I have Wildfox Couture's "Dirty Blonde" shirt and I would have never thought to wear it with a bodycon striped skirt like this! Can't wait till its warmer so I can rock this look.

(She also definitely inspired me to run out to Forever 21 to buy knee highs in every color. )

Who is your style crush?!

Street Style - Kim K

If you know me, you know I am a huge fan of the sisters Kardashian, especially Kim. Back before Kim was the socialite/actress/celebutante/model she is now, with an entourage of hair and make up assistants and stylists, she was a stylist/personal shopper herself. (Clients included Brandy, Lindsay Lohan, and childhood friend Paris Hilton.)

I love seeing what kind of outfit Kim wears in her day to day (unstyled) life. Sure, she always looks gorgeous on the red carpet, photo shoots, and public appearances, but wouldn't we all with the right "people?" What it really comes down to is street style.


Key piece to dress up a black tee and distressed jeans? A cropped, fitted blazer.


A printed skirt pulls together a white tank and neutral accessories.


Kim's blue leather jacket adds the perfect pop of color to keep the basic black/white outfit from becoming too (yawn) boring.


How to keep a masculine shirt-dress feminine? The right color choice to compliment hair and skin tone along with a waist cinching belt to show off curves.


The perfect way to wear horizontal stripes? With a simple skirt, necklace and pumps.





Even if you are not a fan of Kim, you can understand that looking chic is super simple. And you don't have to spend a fortune. If you have the basics in your closet all you need are some accessories (a fun pair of shoes, handbag, chunky necklace, a scarf) to complete the look. And my favorite piece of advice - a good pair of sunglasses definitely go a long way!
