So my gorgeous friend is treating me to a morning with a personal shopper/stylist. Very exciting - in advance i have been asked to tell her whose style I like....my mind has gone completely blank!

So in the hope of some inspiration....who are your style heroes??

I love Keira Knightley's style, so simple and fresh and also Emma Stone's off-duty look.

I always like what Annie Mac wears, her clothes and jewellery.

williaminajetfighter · 08/09/2013 23:00

Michelle Williams definitely. Structured classic dresses with a kind of demure look. Amazing.

Selma Blair. Also v classic.

Stella Tenant, Karlie Kloss, Erin O'Connor, Cate Blanchett.

Patti Smith
Camila Batmanghelidjh

There are loads of other women who dress beautifully but, to be honest, a lot of them look the same to me.

Oh and Leonard Cohen - because he looks sexier, in his late seventies, than he did in his thirties Smile

Giovanna Battaglia
Emmanuelle Alt
Arizona Muse - ridiculously beautiful
The Olsen Twins
Audrey Tautou
Marion Cotillard
and, a recent addition (especially since her fab new haircut) Giuliana Rancic

Sofia Coppola, I absolutely love her style, she's a bit safe but knows exactly what suits her.
Ines de la Fressange, classic French dressing at its best.
Those effortlessly stylish Italian women you see on Oxford Street!
