I'd have to say Cate Blanchett. She always looks classy and polished, and it's nice to see a tall woman in Hollywood!

Cate Blanchett is someone whose style I really admire. She is at once classic and edgy, and always elegant. For the everyday kind of look style icon, though, I find myself more and more admiring of Rachel Bilson's style. I am petite like her and she always looks good without looking stumpy or like she is overwhelmed by her clothes.
My syle icon is Lauren Hutton. Elegant, classy, simple.

What a beautiful dress! My style icon of today is Jennifer Aniston. Even when dressed casual -- she looks put together and stylish in great denim, neutrals and just the right (with a less is more ideal) accessories. When she is red carpet ready -- I adore her! Always classic and beautiful from designers who have goregous, clean lines. She leans toward blacks, whites, greys and neutrals, takes great care of her body and skin, and seems to just know how to make it all work for her!

My style icon? Rihanna. Her style is effortless. Formerly decked out in baggy jeans and plain colored tees during public appearances, she is now adorned from head to toe in everything from Christian Dior to Chanel pieces taken right off of the runway. Now, you can bet your bottom dollar she has kicked off those Nike Dukes for Louboutins. She does not hesistate to take fashion risks on the red carpet and during her concert shows. She goes from wearing a form fitting ball gown to a black corset attached to Daisy Dukes and a garter made out of chains. She has gone from shy teeny-bopper to mature woman in less than a year, and it is that progression that I hope to make when I move towards a professional career, albeit in a more subdued and work-appropriate fashion. I mean, really, with sleek black angled bob and fantastic sense of style, is there any question that Rihanna is every bit of a style icon?

My style icon is definately Dita Von Teese! She is absolutely fabulous! She is always impeccably dressed, perfectly coiffed and groomed and incredibly classy. She brings that old hollywood glamour and sex appeal and never feels the need to follow trends.
