STYLE-CRUSH SATURDAY: CLAIRE UNDERWOOD

Okay, so whilst picking a fictional First Lady for my style crush is a little unusual... can you blame me?

Over the past week I've binge-watched the first two seasons of House of Cards (it's amazing - please go watch it) and I've totally fallen in love with Claire Underwood's wardrobe. She just looks so damn powerful.



The sheer simplicity of her clothes makes her look effortlessly sophisticated and the highly tailored structures look dynamic and tidy.




High necklines cut into V or square shapes make her clothes look almost like armour and the icy colours just exude cold, calculated control.


She may not be a woman to look up to (with more than questionable morals), but I think her wardrobe is definitely something to aspire to emulate. After all, who doesn't want to feel like a total queen?


High waisted pencil skirts and structured bodycons are now top of my agenda. And, I mayybee considering cutting all of my hair off. That pixie cut screams fearless pragmatism.

Anybody else totally crushing on her wardrobe?
