The original Lady Gaga, Cher’s style has changed a lot throughout the decades (sometimes in a good way, sometimes… not so much), but one era that I have always admired when it comes to Cher is her 60′s/70′s period. Always the bohemian babe, Cher would always be out and about rocking cute mini dresses, fringe vests, and crochet anything- too cute!
Triple threat Brigitte Bardot is the epitome of 60s chic. Known for her dark eyes and sex kitten looks, it is easy to see how she is still such a revered fashion icon. What I love about her is that she is not stick skinny like most celebrities we look up to these days; she flaunts her curves and sexy pout with confidence and elegance.
When you watch I Love Lucy, you'll be struck by how stylish the clothes were that Lucille Ball wears. Along with being hilarious and beautiful, Lucille also manages to wear beautifully tailored pant suits, dresses, and heels that Blair Waldorf would lust after.
Jane Birkin, model, singer, girlfriend of French crooner Serge Gainsbourg and namesake of the ever-coveted Hermès Birkin Bag, is one of those girls with effortless style. Whatever she wore, she wore it with grace, whether it was a tee shirt and jeans or a flirty spring dress.
Factory “It Girl”, movie star, model, and muse to artist Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick is the original downtown hipster. Whether she was starring in a silent black and white film or posing for a picture, Edie was always smart, chic, and well dressed. (And who wouldn’t love that makeup? So ’60s chic!)
Where would any fashion icon list be without the chicest of the chic? Audrey Hepburn (in my humble opinion) is the loveliest, most elegant woman to ever grace the silver screen. Always prim and proper, with her well-tailored clothes and gentle demeanor, Audrey proved that she was not only a brilliant actress, but also a humanitarian and a true lady. She exemplified the idea of being lovely inside and out, which, like her style, is something we can all still appreciate today.
