Amazing Grace...

Happy Tuesday everyone! I'm going to keep this post short and sweet. One of the most amazing inspirations for me is Grace Coddington and her work at Vogue. To think that she started off as a model and now has become timeless in her stylist and creative director work. She's the ultimate role model for working your way to the top of the ladder!

Here are some of my favorite shoots of hers. She is so conceptual and her beautiful scenes are going to live forever.

Enjoy your Tuesday <3

Why Can't I Look Like...Kate Middleton

It's the ultimate dream: girl grows up fairly normally in an upper middle class family, goes to university, meets a prince and marries him, and becomes the wife of the King of England. Sounds like a fairytale, but nope - it's just the life of the beautiful Catherine Middleton, also known as Kate or the Duchess of Cambridge. There's a lot of pressure on Kate to look a certain way, because she is part of the royal family. Although she usually looks very modest and demure, she has definitely taken royal fashion to a new level. She is even extending her fashionable style to her son (AKA the cutest child to ever be born), Prince George. She sports ensembles from lesser-known labels and designers from the countries she is visiting. Anything that she wears immediately flies off of the shelves: she has already become a total style icon.

Although we don't usually see Kate dressed-down, she has given us a few looks for every day inspiration! It is especially great to channel her now that we are moving from summer into fall or for some work attire ideas.

Casual royals: Boat neck striped tee, skinny dark pants, and flats are still proper when being laid back.

Printed button up with a cardigan and dark jeans - great for shopping!

Navy blazer with a button-up shirt, skinnies, and wedges are a great option for dressy casual.

To help us channel our own inner princesses, here is a set for some style inspiration:

Kate's Essentials:
Simple button-up shirt
Blazer in a neutral color (navy blue or black)
Cream colored cardigan (matches everything!)
Dark skinny jeans
Simple diamond stud earrings
Neutral ballerina flats
Tan peep-toe wedges
Curling wand to get that fabulous hair!

Happy Wednesday, royal kittens! <3

Are You Red-y For Me?

Redheads are always getting dissed. Carrot top, too many freckles - sounds pretty unique to me! Being a redhead is rare these days, because people just want to be blonde or brunette so they won't get teased.

Don't do it girls - WORK that red!

Here are two pictures of my favorite redhead (unnaturally though). Evan Rachel Wood is a stunner with any hue on her head, but when she was a ginger babe, she really had me. I'm actually thinking of turning my overdyed blonde towards a strawberry/light red to match hers (I think it's time for a change!).

What are your thoughts on red hair? Who is your favorite redhead? 

Enjoy your Saturday off, kittens! <3
