Style Icon--Bliss Cavendar

Hello Loves! I don't know how many of you have seen the movie Whip It, but it's one of my all time favorites. The main character, Bliss, played by the amazing and beautiful Ellen Page, has been one of the main influences on my own personal style. 

 This might be my favorite outfit that she wears in the entire movie. I want to know where they got the lace up dress, jumper thing they put her into! I would buy one, unless it was outrageously expensive, in which case I would buy a knock off.

Bliss wears a lot of baggy band shirts and flirty fifties skirts, the combination of which works surprisingly well. The boy, Oliver, who is next to her on the car in this image, also has a wonderful sense of fashion, but due to things that I cannot tell you because it would spoil the movie, he does not deserve to be featured here! 

And one final one, just of Bliss looking beautiful in her workout clothes. This is before she officially made the team, hence the Barbie skates, but whatever. I wish my legs looked that good in knee highs. 

Fashion icon: Christopher Palu

Hello, My Loves.
Being as this is my first blog post on this site, I figured I'd start by showcasing one of my style icons. When I say icon, I mean both what he wears and what he designs. It only makes sense for me to idolize the fashion sense of male fashion designers, because my own dress sense varies between the masculine and the feminine (back in high school, I used to have what I called "Kurt Cobain" fashion days...you can imagine the rest).
Christopher Palu is a designer on season 10 Lifetime's hit show Project Runway, and I am absolutely in love with him. Cough cough, I mean, his sense of style.

This is the only picture I could find of Chris in his bleached skull tank, but it's definitely my favorite piece of clothing he wears on the show. 

This picture is from Twitter, and it is very very Christopher. He's always wearing scarves that look fashionable and comfy. 

Here he is with the costume that he designed for the Rockettes. He won this challenge, and the Rockettes are going to wear his costume in an upcoming performance. I love the way that he did the skyline, and I'm glad that he didn't do something stupid and cliche with the skirt, like so many of the other designers did. 

This is the dress with which he won the Lord and Taylor challenge. It is being sold as part of their Project Runway collection, which features designs from all ten seasons. I'm currently saving up my money to buy this dress. I think it costs somewhere in the neighborhood of 200-300 dollars, if I'm remembering right. 

And finally....

Just had to add in this quote. :)

Cheers!
