Featured Fashionista: Chloe Sevigny
2007-04-18 19:04:00 Chloe Sevigny:She has definitely come a long way since I first saw her in KIDS as a troubled young girl with AIDS. Now on the HBO series BIG LOVE ( second season premiers June 17, 2007 ), it is clear her career has flourished over the years. Another consistant evolution has been in her unique and under-the-radar sense of style. She somehow always manages to create a look that is just slightly hipper than the pulse of what is going on in the fashion scene she relishes in. I have more than once asked myself, who is inspiring who? Are the designers inspiring her looks? Or is she inspiring theirs? Whether she is choosing it well, or wearing it well, it matters not. Her true BIG LOVE for fashion, shows. It seems she has remained humble in her success, still favoring that special vintage find: "I still prefer to buy vintage over spending it all on one designer," she expressed to the Times.

From A Pile Of Stuff
2007-04-18 18:01:00 "This... stuff'? Oh... ok. I see, you think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don't know, that lumpy blue sweater, for instance, because you're trying to tell the world that you take yourself too seriously to care about what you put on your back. But what you don't know is that that sweater is not just blue, it's not turquoise, it's not lapis, it's actually cerulean.
