My Royal Fashion Inspiration

I know many of you think my style icon is Audrey Hepburn, and in a way it is. She is definitely my vintage fashion inspiration...which is pretty easy to tell, given my fondness for black dresses, glam, and lipstick. ;)

As you can see, I'm quite proficient in the art of Hepburnism and enjoy finding lots of new combinations for that strain of my fashion taste. But I have other style inspirations and I want to highlight one of them today. For a long time I loved Princess Kate's style and I still do, but my Royal Fashion Icon is Princess Mary of Denmark. The woman has a precious story and is now my favorite royal. She is a wife and mother first and foremost and you can tell how much she loves her children by the sheer volume of pictures with them in tow. It's precious, I tell you. Not only is she a Cinderella-story, but she has pretty darn awesome fashion taste. Here is a collection of the best. Can you see why I've adopted her as my fashion muse?

Simple evening attire

Rocking the casual wear.

Classy Mama

Completely natural in her grace and beauty.

And if you aren't quite in love by now, I don't know where your heart is.

More women should take cues on fashion from people like the Crown Princess Mary of Denmark. She dresses with modesty, grace, and elegance. She's very understated, very natural, and appears to be the sort of person with whom you would feel at ease. There is nothing pretentious about her style of clothing, nothing that would make you feel that she thought ill of you. Gracious. Effortless. I want to be more like her in my fashion life.

Who is your style inspiration?

Oh.

And would you like to see my biker-chick ensemble? ;)
