Thankfully at the age of 14 I started becoming increasingly interested in fashion. My wardrobe started as a miss-match of clothes, but gradually grew to become slightly more organised. It started with my first pair of Dr. Martens, they were limited addition silver geometric style boots, they were luminous, they were bright and they were most importantly comfy. My style is undeniable simple. I like to look good, but feel comfortable, with a 80's or 90's twist.
My style icons are Alexa Chung, Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne and Agyness Deyn. I love Alexa's awkward boy style, her messy bob and the way she can wear a floral summer dress, and make it boyish with a pair of docs and some frilly socks. Kate Moss...Kate Moss is just great. (i have a very biased opinion of her) I love the beautiful tailoring that you see Kate Moss in, she knows how to wear a vest, a blazer and boyfriend jeans and still look sexy. Moss has been dressed in some of the most amazing and elaborate fashions that the last three decades have seen. But when it comes to dressing herself, Moss always goes for the simplistic styles, like the ones seen in her Topshop range. She focuses more on looking good without trying than any other model/designer. Cara Delevinge is up there because of those random things she wears that are just fun and a bit different! Her iconic beanies and colourful jumpers are what make her a style icon for me. Agyness is obvious...she has a line with Dr. Marten and like Alexa Chung, makes boyish clothes look fab.
It's safe to say I am a shopaholic. Around 80% of my expenditure goes to fashion. I would much rather be on bread and water for a week and be able to buy a new pair of mom jeans, or stay in on a night out so I can get some new trainers. Sad...I know. But I love it, and it's never going to change.
