RE: Introduction and poll

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

Favourite accessory: Handbag (I have too many to pick just one), dangly or big earrings, and a necklace with lots of tiny charms.

Favourite piece of clothing: as of right now, probably my brown tweed coat, or my brown boots

Favourite designer: Michael Kors.

Inspiration: mystylediary, ST girls, magazines, etc.

Michibanana · BCBG

Age? Turning 22 in two days!

Location? PA, near Philly

Style icon? Audrey Hepburn, Natalie Portman, Alexis Bledel

Favourite accessory? Scarves (especially pashminas), earrings, shoes, and this long, green chunky beaded necklace I just made for myself

Favourite piece of clothing? My H&M Divided jean jacket that I got like three years ago for $40. Fits me perfectly (took me forever to find one that wasn't too boxy), makes me look instantly put together, and makes me feel think on "fat days" . Also, a gorgeous skirt I got at Topshop in Oxford when I was studying in the UK - long, green, deconstructed linen skirt that's cut straight to the knee then flares out at the bottom with raw-edged tiers. A peasant skirt with a twist.

Favourite designer? Just starting to learn more about designers...I drool over Jimmy Choo shoes (who doesn't!) and am a big fan of Marc Jacobs and DVF so far. And of course Prada.

Inspiration? My best friend, anything tweedy, anything with feminine details (I'm obsessed with puffed sleeves), anything with a vintage-y vibe, Europe (especially Italy - the girls in Rome were AMAZINGLY dressed), anything with an ethnic feel (especially with an Indian, Latin, or Asian vibe) Gilmore Girls , ST...

relrel · Marc Jacobs

Hi!

Age: 26

Location: Philadelphia (but born in Lancaster, PA and spent six years in Pittsburgh, PA)

Style Icon: Reese Witherspoon, Selma Blair, and of course, Audrey Hepburn

Favorite Accessory: my pearls or my kelly green pashmina

Favorite Piece of Clothing: this cowl neck plum sweater from H&M, i would wear it every day if i could get away with it. hmm, tank tops of any sort also are my faves.

favorite designer: honestly, i don't really know enough to tell you who my favorites are. i used to pay attention to this stuff but i realized that since i will never be able to wear a piece of clothing that costs more than $150 that designers are useless to me. but i prefer cleaner lines and simple prints.

Inspiration: besides magazines like lucky, and shopetc, the girls on here of course. and even though you don't have any frame of reference for this: the cool girl in my class who always looks good but simple.
