Hi, I'm Maddie!

Welcome to M&B. Take off your jacket and stay awhile. 

STYLE INSPO: Sophia Bush

STYLE INSPO: Sophia Bush

My question: Is Sophia Bush REAL?! Not only is she endowed with classical good looks and the sexiest raspy voice on the planet but she is an honest-to-goodness GOOD person too. A massive advocate for a variety of close-to-her-heart, grassroots foundations supporting a variety of issues from poverty and education, environment and health, self-love to women's empowerment.  It is so see-through how real this lady is, from her never-ending praises of her friends, to her explanation of the term 'bae' which, as she puts it, "has firmly rooted itself in the current cultural lexicon." What a fierce, kick-ass lady. 

Only Sophia. That's going to be my conclusion after this post. Only Sophia can absolutely kill a suit on the red carpet, every. single. time. And there's been quite a few times... this girl likes her red carpet suits. 

Only Sophia. The most slighted of the rainbow hues, orange is typically a shied-away from colour. Not for Ms. Bush. Sophia gives us an important style (and life!) lesson - be bold and brash and confident in your choices. 

How she manages to make jeans and a tshirt look like a meticulously-crafted outfit is beyond me. Sophia Bush's street style is perfect if you are looking for a celebrity style to emulate as it is so do-able for so many types of budgets and it looks amazing on everyone. It is simple and comfortable and wearable. Plus, Sophia tends to support up and coming designers which is something I find very admirable and important to do as a public figure. Only Sophia.
