Fashion Style Icons
After a long, tiring week at work, thank God its Saturday! And I can blog, blog, blog.
Waking up early and staying late at work for 2 weeks now to finish an urgent assignment made me feel really old and unfashionable. I felt like I had a nest on top of my hair that I haven’t had time to even comb my hair. I longed for luxurious baths using relaxing scented shower gels (with lotsa bubbles), apply moisturizer on my face, apply Victoria’s Secret lotion all over my body, get enough sleep and rest. During those rush days, the beauty survival that I do to make me feel “fabulous” is spraying Bath and Body Works Body Splash spray cologne “Sweet Pea” scent. Thank God I have a good source of these beauty products. Life is not so bad despite my salary have not increased. (sigh)
Seriously, I think I am the most unfashionable person in the whole world. I am clueless about fashion. I just wear anything comfortable for the day. To give you an idea of how dreadful I am about fashion, I just took Tim Gunn’s quiz in his website and I scored 3/6, which means I need help from Tim. Tim Gunn is on of the guru in the “Project Runway” reality show. Hayyy.. I would love to be in his TV show “Tim Gunn’s Style Guide” and have a make-over. Promise I won’t cry or be upset if he took away all my wardrobe.
As long as he will help me go shopping to have a new set of wardrobe. Tim “advised” me in the quiz to find fashion style icons and translate it as my own. Easier said than done. You can take Tim Gunn’s style quiz here.
FabSugar featured a fashion style icon in Eva Longoria. “Cruising along in her Juicy Couture dress and Yves Saint Laurent Tribute sandals, the striped belt really helped break up the matchy crochet dress and bag.” I’ve come to like Eva at the TV Series the “Desperate Housewives”, I was hooked watching it until it went off the air for a while when the writer’s went on strike. Eva definitely rocks with style!
But I like to be fashionable without having a style icon. I think one can still be fashionable even wearing unbranded clothes. I just need to know the basics – my body size, body shape, my best body features (which is I think my small waist and my full hips) and a little bit of confidence to wear clothes that I’ve never wore before without looking that I’ve tried too hard. Oh well I guess, as long as mickey mouse finds me lovely, I think I won’t go wrong. But still any woman wants to look pretty to her man.
