Gossip Girl Feature
The hand gloves MUST go.
I am glad they put this dress on a 20 something because when I saw this in the Elie Tahari lookbook, all I saw was a 30 something career woman in this dress.
Great look for Hilary Duff, however I am rather wary of mixing metals, as she does with her silver drop earrings with a gold dress.
Her hair and make-up is a mess, but I like this look otherwise. The shoes are fabulous. The middle look is a tad too much. Too much different textures... Could the third dress be any shorter? I feel like I can see her ____. Plus the t-strap heels are weak. For some reason I kinda like how chic cliche this look is. In a tacky chic way.
This look works for the moody, punky Taylor Momsen.
I am Ksenia and I am a moxie fashionista.
Moxie:
n. Slang
1. The ability to face difficulty with spirit and courage.
2. Aggressive energy; initiative: "Her style has moxie: she takes fashion by the balls and makes it her own"
3. Skill; know-how.
Fashionista:
A fashionista doesn't look at her femininity as a gender flaw.
Where some may be quick to label her a bitch, others actually take the time to get to know her eccentricities.
Fashionistas see fashion as an art; their own bodies are the canvas, and the sense of style they develope along the way is the masterpiece.
True fashion ("true fashion" as in the clothes and not the thin supermodels that wear them) is an expression of identity.
Fashionistas are:
Knowledgable about fashion, style, and, really, what works and what... just doesn't.
To me, fashion is an appreciation and understanding of aesthetics and that application of it in our lives.
