STYLE INSPO: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

STYLE INSPO: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

My style icon - Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. The quintessential English rose (no pun intended). Her look: Updated English heritage (oxymoron? maybe). Lots of neutrals, luxurious fabrics, great leather bags, felt hats and fur. 

I love that I always see Rosie repeating pieces - she has her set of classics that are easily interchangeable between outfits without ever looking dull. Having a neutral based wardrobe really does make it easier to pack when you're travelling. Not that I am a jet-setting model like Rosie but as a student who constantly has to be packing up and moving back and forth between home and university, having a neutral wardrobe helps.

Her gala looks are always so spot on. The luxurious fur with a silk dress. The undone hair and simple makeup. The short dress with the fur vest - a cool twist on the classic mini. That's what makes Rosie's style so cool - she can make something look so fresh and different with the smallest tweak but it's not try-hard whatsoever. 

Finally, I love Rosie because she always looks confident and comfortable in what she's wearing. She knows what she likes and it works for her - she always looks regal.
