Style Icon - Faye Dunaway

I'm talking the ORIGINAL Bonnie & Clyde.
None of this Walt-Disney-Hillary-Duff crap.
This woman had style and is one of my favourite fashion icons of all time.
The hats, the skirts, the tops, the socks, the SHOES, everything <3
Simple, classy, brilliant!
Oh and of course, bad-ass.  Here are a few of my favourite inspirational photographs from the original movie!  Then my own version of an outfit inspired by her.
Love the v-neck lines, the classy yet bulky collars, the knitted materials, leather gloves, all styles of hats, simple prints and colours.
Bandana as a scarf!!  Brilliant.  I wore this style one day to school and got a strange variety of compliments and weird stares.  Anyone who lives around Rexdale will understand why.
Love this style of sweater and all her A-line skirts, very flattering, comfy and classy.
Simple v-neck camisoles and delicate necklaces really add a feminine touch to her edgy style.
She really brought life to the Tote, emphasizing its practicality and stylishness.
 This is her best-known look with a delicate, ribbed sweater with crocheted shoulders and (of course) the bandana scarf, beret and a fuzzy A-line skirt.  Here is my version of her outfit!  I'm crazy about knee socks I probably own 30 pairs.  They are a great way to jazz up any outfit and look great with heels and sandals!!





Lookin' badass with my brand new kitty <3  Any idea for names???
Bonnie & Clyde.  Except she's a girl so Bonnie & Claudette?   :) :)
