Style Dossier: Victoria Beckham

“I do often look like a miserable bitch in photographs, but you have to have a tough side.”- Victoria Beckham

Don't judge or throw me shade on this one. You're probably thinking fuck this bitch, there are so many more beautiful women to do a dossier on but I felt VB makes for an interesting subject. Mostly because she yo-yo's from smart and chic to epic fashion beast squishing-at times a too thin frame-into bite sized dresses.
One minute it's skinny jeans and a Birkin but the next it's cat flashing skin-tight dresses and monster He-Man heels.
Pre-spice. Nice earrings
Tasteful portfolio shots are the epitome of grace and elegance.


When she first hit the spotlight in 1996 with the Spice Girls she was dubbed Posh Spice which is yeah, ironic. At first she mostly stuck to simple black dresses to really hammer away that she was sophisticated. Looking back I'm not entirely convinced.
Spice up ur motherfuckin life!

Buh-bye 90's, hello 00's
I used to have that same dress!!! How embarry.

I'm like, so fashion right now. I'm MAY-JAH.
ABOVE: This is kinda her fashion phase where she started becoming a front row fixture at runway shows and appeared in ad campaigns for Armani and Marc Jacobs. Then of course she started her own line of restrained, pared down dresses which are apparently quite popular.

Most recent shot of Posh with her totes adorbz kids and dashing husband.

My major criticism (if I were to have only one) is that she never looks relaxed or natural. Her outfit choices always look overdone, laboured and too precise. She never looks like she just rolled out of bed and threw on  a slanket you know? I just wanna say bitch chill the fudge out. Wear a polar fleece vest like a normal mum. 


LESS OF THIS



MORE OF THIS



Also, I just want to wish you all a happy new year plus a big thank you for following and reading my blog. And if you have a blog that I follow I say a big thank you for providing me with endless hours of laughs, fashion reviews, insights and your own view on what fashion is. Now I'm getting all weepy and shit.

Style Dossier: Julianne Moore

There's just something about Julianne Moore that's earned her a legion of fans-mostly gay fans for some reason. Maybe it was 2002's Far From Heaven. For me it's a tie between Boogie Nights and Magnolia. The 49 year old actress has been a face for Revlon since 2002 and you've no doubt seen her more recently in ads for Bulgari.
Her personal style is almost always chic, refined and never over the top. It may be a tad cliche wearing green because you have red hair but I don't care, Moore pulls it off. She seems to be a muse to Tom Ford (he cast her in his debut film and dressed her for the premiere) and possibly Stefano Pilati judging by the number of YSL outfits she's worn. Another favourite of Moore's is Lanvin but who isn't a fan of Alber Elbaz?
Normally for Style Dossier I try to get at least one hideous outfit choice but I couldn't find one. Any suggestions?

STYLE DOSSIER: JENNIFER CONNELLY

This month's Style Dossier covers Jennifer Connelly. Any child of the 80's knows her from The Labyrinth and any child of the 90's knows her from Requiem For A Dream.
She is muse to Nicolas Ghesquiere of Balenciaga so naturally she wears a lot of his outfits but she's also sported Givenchy and Chloe to premieres and other red carpet events. There's not many style boo boos with this star but there's a few.










How do get your hair like that?
A piece of cake Jennifer, a little gel, mousse and hairspray
