Monday Muse: Guy and Nicole Richie



Guy: What attracted me to this look was his sweater. I am obsessed with a good sweater and this one is great. I like how he took a vintage inspired sweater and paired it with a pair of jeans and sneakers. He then accessorized with earring and a baseball cap. His bracelet almost goes unnoticed which is a great addition to his look. He is a Monday Muse.


What do you think is he a Monday Muse or Lose?




Look for the Road...


Gal: Nicole Richie or Jennifer Lopez?


Happy Halloween

Rihanna Rocks an Indie Style in We Found Love

Rihanna released her latest video We Found Love off of her upcoming album. She and her onscreen man, Dudley O'Shaughnessy(Model & Boxer) take us on a journey of being in love and falling out of love. 


The song is great and is very popular in the clubs and the video is dramatic and reminds me of an Indie Film(think Requiem for a Dream). I enjoyed both the song and the video concept, but my favorite part are all of the wardrobe changes made by the two.


I believe the video was shot across Europe and the wardrobe inspiration is European street fashion. I'm trying to bring that exact style into my own wardrobe everyday. It's a very thrown together look and says I don't care, but reads I do care. 


Take a look at the video below and tell me what you think about the wardrobe. I'll surely be taking style inspiration from this video.

Tyra Banks with Modelland



I still have not got my hands on a copy of Modelland by Tyra Banks, but I better try harder if I want to join in on the conversation. 


Thanks to the success of Modelland being ranked number two on The New York Times Bestseller list of Young Adult Novels, Tyra can add another title to her growing list.


I've been a fan since her modeling days, then her talk show, still ANTM, and now publishing. She is doing a lot, but is very focused on redefining the definition of beauty and fashion for young girls and women. 


Congratulations Tyra! You deserve it.




Have you read Modelland or is it on you list of books to read?

Monday Muse: Me & Giuliana Rancic

Guy: David R Jolly

I'm obsessed with this look. The pants, shirt and necklace are all from TOPMAN. My red TOMS, watch, yellow belt, and readers act as great accessories. The cardigan is vintage and was worn to keep me warm for a cool night. The jeans are my favorite part. They are European skinny jeans and I love them. They are skinny in the leg and opens in the crotch, instead of being skinny through the whole pant. And of course I had to strike a pose. I think this look is a Monday Muse!



Look for the Road
