Icons Of Style- Erin Wasson

Erin Wasson has been modelling since 2000. At only 25, she has had campaigns with Gucci, Maybelline, Victoria's Secret and Dolce & Gabbanna to name a few. Her friends are models and designers, she is tattooed, surfs in her spare time and designs jewellery for her range Luv Low. Can I say perfection?!








What we can learn from Erin:

- know what suits you and stick to it!
- basic colours are not boring
- hats, slouchy beanies, headbands and headpeices are fun
- flats are cool, be in sneakers, brouges, gladiator sandles or boots
- denim cut offs are a staple wardrobe item (if you have the legs!)

Icons Of Style- Peaches Geldof


I dont know much about Peaches Geldof aside from who her father is, that she writes/has written for a few English mags and is about 18years old. I actually dont care to know much else about her, from what rare interviews and press Ive seen Im not sure I like the girl, but there is no denying that her look is very fresh, young, funky and unique. See for yourselves...
















What we can learn from Peaches:

- experiment with different hair colours and cuts
- fabulous coats make great cover ups
- splashes of bright colours, like red, liven up any outfit. shoes, bags or necklaces
- long necklaces with interesting pendants match almost everything
- black is eternally chic
- use patterened scarves to accessorise otherwise plain outfits
- the best tan you can have is a light, bronzed glow. NEVER go overboard
- black opaques suit everything and everyone
- dont be afraid of headbands! ever!

Icons Of Style- Lou Doillon

Lou Doillon is easily a pedigree of France. for those of us who don't watch french cinema, we wouldn't be aware of Lou Dillon the actress; of which she is highly acomplished. but we may be atune to her legacy; daughter of Jane Birkin and french director Jacques Doillon, she also just so happens to be the half sister to Charlotte Gainsberg.

Renowned for her unusal beauty, she has sucessfully modelled for the likes of Givenchy, Jovovich-Hawkand Pirelli. A standard in the front rows of Paris Fashion Week, Lou's individual style begun at an early age and now, at the age of 25, is distinct, unique and in my opinion, utterly fabulous.


Lou has a penchant to pair etherial, floaty dresses with dark opaques and fantastic head peices- be it hats, flowers or headbands. Her opaques often peek out from her heels, proving that the whole 'no stockings with open toe shoes' rule is really, bullshit.



Her hair is worn loose below her shoulders, textured and natural with a come-hither fringe. Never heavily made up or covered in orangey fake tan, her skin glows with her natural french beauty.

fresh face, printed tee, jeans tucked into over the knee black socks and boots, sparkly red jacket? oui oui!
