Love Her Style, and Hers, and Hers, and Hers!

Happy Tuesday to all! Today's quick little post pays homage to some of my favorite style icons all across the fashion spectrum.

Rachel Bilson


Rachel is just precious. She looks so fresh and cute in her casual day wear and she completely turns it out for evening. I appreciate that she embraces new designers and is never afraid to mix high & low and vintage & new.

Kate Beckinsale


She always looks stunning, whether she's taking her daughter out for ice cream or rockin' the red carpet. I love her choice of accessories and her ladylike chic-ness.

Victoria Beckham



This teeny little thing packs a lot of punch in her outfits, designer line and her overall demeanor. If you watched American Idol auditions you would also know that she is hilarious and is really sweet and open to others' personal style. Plus, she's married to gorgeous David and she can rock 6" heels better than anyone.

Gwen Stefani



Ms. Stefani truly has her own unique style. From the days of bindis and braids in No Doubt to rockin' Vivenne Westwood, Gwen is such an innovator and a chameleon. I love that she pushes the envelope and enjoys her own cool style.


AND, one of the best parts of blogging is to experience and take in others' style! There are so many talented, whimsical, adorable fashion bloggers out there. One of my favorite parts of my day is reading new posts :)

That being said....



The fabulous Obsessionista awarded me the Love Her Style Award! Thanks lovely!

There are so many style related blogs that I adore...but I want to give this sweet little award to the following...


These ladies are fab-u-lous. Read their blogs - they never disappoint!

Reader Request: Let's Not Waist Any Time, Or Skirt The Issue...

Oh the title of this post...I know, I'm a total nerd. But really, a lovely CCC reader asked me to find her a similarly styled skirt to Vickie B's seen below....










I know the Polyvore set isn't super exciting, but it really does showcase some stunners at unlikely online retailers - like Spiegel?! I haven't seen a Spiegel catalogue since my scrunchie days. Also, Newport News has some super cute stuff, at very affordable prices. A few months ago my buddy Chasing Davies did a spread of Newport News shoes  - they have some lovely little options.

I'm a fan of high-waisted pencil skirts, they really streamline the entire midsection and give a nice throwback to the 40s. If you're a little squeamish about a tighter fitting, high-waist skirt, there are tons o' options that feature pieces of "shapewear" built right into the skirt. There is one featured in the set below!

What do you think of high-waisted pencil skirts? Waist of time or just right?

And, yes, I'm officially finished with the homonyms for the day...High Waisted Skirts

Posh Creating New Model Agency?



The celebrity fashion rumor mill is on the the go again. Is Post creating a new modeling agency?

Well according to sources around the web, Victoria Beckham is collaborating with her manager, Simon Fuller to start their own modeling agency in New York.

Although neither has confirmed directly, sources are buzzing around the web. Once Contactmusic source was quoted saying:


“Simon knows that Victoria is very savvy when it comes to fashion. His first foray into fashion was to team up designer Roland Mouret and Victoria, which was a huge success. Victoria is a key asset to Simon and he wants her to take on a major role."

Don't remember Simon? He was the manager of the Spice Girls and has a majority stake in the London modeling agency Storm Models. He is rumored to want to duplicate their model in the United States.

True or false? We don't know..but we'll keep you posted.

10 Years of Brand Beckham.......

It is 10 years since Posh and Becks sat on those thrones during their fairytale wedding at a castle in Ireland.
She is a former Spice Girl, now best known for her pout; he is a footballer not afraid to experiment with hairstyles and tattoos.
Together, David and Victoria Beckham are arguably the UK's most famous couple.
"They've been very clever with their marketing, and their branding has been very well thought out," says Phil Gould, assistant editor of OK! magazine.
With an estimated fortune of £125 million and ranking at 426th on the Sunday Times Rich List, Brand Beckham is a reliable money-spinner for the couple.
"They still sell very well and our readers are fascinated by their lives," Mr Gould says.
In fact, it was the Beckhams wedding on 4 July 1999 - for which they reportedly received £1 million - that started the celebrity wedding bidding wars we so often hear about today.
I think we can take it for granted that David and Victoria Beckham could possibly be together for ever
Mark Frith "It was the thing that everybody was talking about, and for the magazine, it was one of the first things we did. It got everybody talking about us," Mr Gould adds.
He says the photos of their wedding remain the third best-selling issue in the magazine's history.
Only the recent wedding of the late reality TV star Jade Goody, and the Katie Price/Peter Andre nuptials, outsold the Beckhams.
Over the past decade the Beckhams have worked their way up the celebrity ladder.
When they moved to Los Angeles in 2007, the pair were welcomed into the LA glitterati and were regularly photographed with Tom Cruise, his wife Katie Holmes, and Jennifer Lopez.
However, the state of their marriage has often been a cause for speculation, leaving some asking whether the united smiles in front of the camera are just a front.
'Deep love'
"I think a lot of people think the reason they stay together is for the money and the power that kind of couple brings.
"But there is more to it than that, there is a deep love there," says former Heat magazine editor Mark Frith.
Frith, who has met both of them, has written about his encounters in his book, The Celeb Diaries.
The Beckhams wedding is one of OK! magazine's best-selling issue ever
In pictures: Ten years of Brand Beckham "They're not together just to keep this brand going. They have all the money in the world anyway and the fame isn't ever going to be a problem for them."
When asked if he thinks it is likely Posh and Becks will be celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary, he says it is a certainty.
"I'd put money on it. I think we can take it for granted that David and Victoria Beckham could possibly be together for ever."
But if it did all end tomorrow - would Brand Beckham still bring in the bucks?
Although Victoria remains the only Spice Girl not to have secured a number one solo single under her Gucci belt, her newly chosen career in fashion seems to be going well.
"The next progressive step for her was to launch her own catwalk label, which she's done very slowly, very carefully," says fashion designer Scott Henshall.
"I think it's very important that she didn't do this in the UK. She's shown this in New York - which automatically makes us Brits think she's even more fabulous."
'True icon'
According to him, the incredible success the pair have had as a couple is all down to Mrs Beckham.
"It's Victoria who is constantly pushing forward onto the global stage. I think the Spice Girls is almost a footnote now for her.
The Beckhams were welcomed into the LA glitterati "Victoria's world stage is the red carpet."
He describes her as a "true icon" and says a lot of people would be surprised at how funny she is.
"She's very down-to-earth and she has a very dry sense of humour. I think she just wants to belong, I think she just wants to be accepted."
It seems David - or Goldenballs as Victoria likes to call him - has never had much of a problem being accepted within his profession.
"It's amazing how he can walk around in a sarong, a pair of pants or two ponytails, and it doesn't seem to have affected him a jot in terms of the way he's perceived within the sports world," says sports broadcaster Mark Webster.
"On a football field he expresses himself beautifully.
"It's an amazing achievement that David Beckham's come up with. He's kind of like the first guy to really nail it in in terms of football and everything else.
"He has taken it to a completely different level."
