Fashion Innovator. ..

The best Fashion Innovator award goes to: KATE LANPHEAR. . .I'm obsessed! Are you kidding me?. . . I love the original styles. . . Apparently she has the most street style photos taken of her, of anyone anywhere.  When I learned that, I had to think about her style and wonder why she speaks so much to so many people.

First of all, her hair is really cool. . . She had it before Miley Cyrus, I learned.  Not that many people can pull off this hairstyle, for a number of reasons.  I think you have to have narrow shoulders and a sharper jaw line.  She also had the attitude for it, embedded in her smile. You also can't be annoyed by the bangs and want to toss them off into a bow or something. . .  Her smile, more of a smirk really, is inquisitive and quirky. . . She also had cultivated that death stare masterfully.  I wouldn't want to mess with her, not just because of those eyes, but also. . . Her jewelry has spikes. at the same time there is something very feminine noir chic about her.  I'm not sure exactly what I mean, more of that fashion talk, I'm also obsessed with.  It kind of means "nothing" and "something" at the same time.


Okay so here are some of my favorite looks of Kate Lanphear.  Granted, these styles are mostly in black, and I do love a bit of color.  But truly, the reason I love her look is because she has cultivated a style, she's not afraid to tweek it, and she has found a mood that reflects her, that oozes her. . . that works for her, suits her dramatically well. Here goes:  I'm not commenting on them because I love them all!

 

And en finale:
