I'm loathe to use the term style icon because it's one that's bandied round far too easily. In my opinion, you can only really be an icon when you're deceased - Kate Middleton, Alexa Chung and Victoria Beckham are not icons. (In Alexa's case, considering all the clothes she gets given, it's to be expected she dresses vaguely well. (Not to my taste though.) As for icons, Audrey Hepburn is considered to be one, although not one of mine, I'll take Katherine H over Audrey H any day.
So, I guess what I'm curious to know is whose style do you admire. Is there anyone you want to emulate or when you find yourself shopping for clothes, is there someone you have in mind?
I love the way Sofia Coppola, Giovanna Battaglia and Laura Bailey dress, indeed, I when shopping, I often find myself wondering if Sofia C would wear it (I think I owe my navy obsession to her). Presently, and thanks to Vogue's 'What I'm Wearing Today', I'm wanting pretty much everything Katie Hillier owns/wears.
I'm sure there are more but until then, whose style do you admire/want to emulate?
