Style Icon: Keira Knightley

So lately I've been raving about the future a lot. Don't worry, that isn't going to happen right now. Today isn't going to be that. Today we're talking Keira Knightley. Those of you who groan because you she's so pretty and you feel like you can't compare, or those of you who basically see her name in a movie title and watch it because you want to see her being so hot (it's not just me that thinks this, one of my completely straight friends said this the other day - it's all good you're not alone). We're stalking her style today.

For about the 3rd time I watched "Begin Again" the other day (yes this was with the friend who said she was extremely hot) and for the 3rd time I completely fell in love with her style. "Begin Again" is sort of a hipster movie (made for Toronto Film Festival) that is about musicians and music and it's a bit of a love story in there too - it's just not very corny. Seriously the songs she sings you will be singing for the rest of the day. And then wondering why you are talent-less for the rest of the week. But it's a good movie. Trust me.

 Anyway so in the movie her style is just so her character. She's all about the high-waisted (LOVE) pants paired with cropped or boxy tops (not in a slutty way) or the boyfriend jeans. It's something where her style is so simple and everything is clean, not trying to show off and it just looks amazing.

There's definitely a menswear inspired theme to her outfits, but it just is so brilliantly done. I could ramble for years. There's something about how carelessly feminine she looks paired with the male inspired look that just has me entranced.

Also a guitar is always a great accessory.
