Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery

Things have been relatively slow in the celeb fashion world (or I just haven’t really paid attention), so I’m gonna fangirl for a little while over one of my style inspirations, Khloe Kardashian, and how she’s influenced my wardrobe.

One of the main reasons I adore her (and her style) is because of our similarities. We have boobs. We have hips. We have butts. Finding a celebrity with a similar body type to you is incredibly helpful when it comes to making your closet. Celebs are generally dressed pretty well, so if you find one with a body type like yours, you can look for pieces they wear and it’s almost a guarantee they’ll work for you too.

For example, have boobs? Emphasize them with a corset top (or dress)

If you got it, flaunt it. No reason to hide what the Good Lord gave ya!

Khloe also has a wonderful eye for prints.

Stripes are modern and flattering, while animal prints are fun and saucy.

This dress is extremely flattering on Khloe (and, not to toot my own horn but I’m sure it would look amazing on me as well) because of the cinching—it balances broader shoulders and hips by highlighting a smaller waist. A belt would achieve the same idea.

Khloe has also inspired me to experiment with colors in my everyday outfits:

Colored pants are a must (I now have at least 5 different colored pairs)

Colored lips are always fun (especially when you have giant lips like mine, you have no choice but to emphasize them)

Moral of the story: find a celeb similar to you and let them inspire you and your fashion philosophy.
