Style icons are overrated but
- mine are Taylor Swift, Grace Kelly, Crystal Reed, Cate Blanchett. I love very classic stuff. I can go preppy or ethereal as long as it's modest and feminine! Taylor is prolly my favorite though; I'm not a fan but she has a GREAT figure, naturally skinny and athletic so I can relate to her. She's healthy and 10x more confident than people like Kim Kardashian or Scarlett Johansson.

Carrie Bradshaw
- every thing she wear is so stylish, i love how she mix colors and of curs her shoes, she is fashion

Rachel McAdams
- I love her style as of late, I think she does a good job of pushing boundaries, but still in a tasteful, classy way. I also love Kate Winslet, both for her look and her attitude about her body and any attention that is paid to it by tabloids. And not a person in general, but I love the 40's era, all the glamour of it.

Knowing Your Own Style
- Diane Keaton & Madonna. Both wear what they like & look good in. They respect themselves enough to come "real" with fashion. Neither fits a mold on style. Neither is afraid to take risk. India Ire,Monique,Erykah Badu,Annie Lennox, Joanie Michell all bring Personal Style to everything they do. And they look Great doing it. I wear a wp 20/22 I love hats & caps. I'm still searching for a great pr.of Dark Blue Jeans that are comfortable & fit my body correctly When I buy a new piece I have fashion shows in my bedroom; mixing pieces so that I know what works with what. I ignore numbers on the tags & go for a great fit.I work from a core of classic pieces & try to buy things that will go with whatever I already have. I accent with accessories in the current fav. colors.I buy only what I know I will wear. Nail polish in the trend colors are a quick pick me up are and a cheap way to incorporate the latest colors into yr wardrobe. I Luv Old Navy online.

Evans London and Torrid(of course!)
- Right now I have Monif C.'s Marilyn Moore inspired dresses spinning in my head! LOL I also love Evans London's designs, because their emphasis is on fit - which is most important to me. And Torrid, because they are very fashionale and always in my budget range =) These 3 choices have so many pieces in an array of colors - which I love.

My Favs
- My favorite style icons are Mo'Nique, Mae West, and the other actresses from the Golden Age of Hollywood such as Norma Shearer, Better Davies, Jean Harlow, Rosalind Russell, Barbara Stanwyck just to name a few!
- —Sharinette
Elsa Schiaparelli
- Elsa is my non-plus choice, because she brought bright and gorgeous colors back during two American wars. For plus-sizes, I really like model Fluvia Lacerda, although I have no idea how she dresses besides in her campaigns. I think she always looks gorgeous, healthy, and-- best of all-- confident. You can pull off any style with that combo!
