Fashion Friday Style Icons


Leo DiCaprio 

It's that time again--Fashion Friday!  I hope you can link up with me.  I wanted to get the link up earlier this week, since I've been so far behind, with apartment hunting and such.  I think I found a place today, but we'll see if everything goes through...prayers please!

So much of what we see in fashion comes directly from the style icons of Hollywood.  It's always been that way.  Women and men wanted to emulate and look like the stars they watched on film.  Vanity Fair Magazine featured some of these style icons and their fabulous fashion.  Here are some of my favorites.


Fred Astaire


Grace Kelly


Marlene Dietrich


Bette Davis


George Clooney


Joan Crawford


Penelope Cruz


Nicole Kidman


Johnny Depp (of course my favorite!

Style Icons Mona Bismarck & Millicent Rogers


Good morning!  I'm heading to the Rockies game tonight and can't wait to share some photos with you all. I've been looking at magazine articles all morning to see what's new in the fashion world, and came across a gorgeous spread in Harper's Bazaar.  

Karl Lagerfeld was so inspired by Mona Bismarck and Millicent Rogers, that he created a photo shoot based on them.  If you don't know who these amazing women are, read the article here.

Gorgeous photos right?  I love the vintage glamour and always love learning about past fashion icons.  Have a great day all!
