I'D LIKE TO BE MORE APPROACHABLE

..not less weird.












She just NEVER looks bad. As the New Yorker famously said, she's the coolest girl in the world.

I don't get it. There are a million people I would rather looklike/be.

I think the "coolest girl in the world" label is a nonsense.

haha! Thanks, anonymous!
Each to their own, obviously. Chloe Sevigny happens to be one of my favourite style icons for lots of reasons - mainly that she has a unique yet recognisable sense of personal style and doesn't give a shit about trends or what's cool and in... which in turn makes her cool to me. When I think of her I always imagine her back in the 90s, in films like Gummo and Kids and Boys Don't Cry, which are around the time when I think her style was at its most offbeat and quirky.

She has a very special and unusual beauty precisely because she isn't conventionally beautiful.

There's a good interview with her on The Guardian website where she talks about style and what it means to her - you should check it out, though I doubt you will. The quote which makes up my title and first line of this post is from that article.

And I'm not sure if I'd actually like to BE her, or even look like her, I just love looking at and appreciating her.

Kirsty... I totally agree with everything you said there! She just has "IT!" even if she isn't the most conventially beautiful girl. But, she defo has the best legs in the business!
