#GIRLBOSS

In honor of the newly released #GIRLBOSS, I've made a top 10 list of the women who are definitely the #GIRLBOSSES. So let's begin.

1. SOPHIA AMORUSO

 
Why is Sophia Amoruso a #GIRLBOSS? Do you even have to ask? She wrote the book, and I mean literally, Wrote. The. Book. This girl is the ultimate #GIRLBOSS because she set her goals and then showed her goals who's boss. Now she's the boss of a multi-million dollar business, Nasty Gal, and is inspiring girls everywhere to do what they want to do.

2. IGGY AZALEA

First things first, she's the realest. As a white girl from Australia, the rapping industry is hard to get a foot in, but Iggy Ig knows what's up. She moved to the US at 16 to pursue her dream as a rapper, even after being laughed at for her rhymes. Now, she's topping the charts every which way and being the ultimate #GIRLBOSS in this Murda Bizness.

3. MILEY CYRUS

Love her. Hate her. It doesn't matter, just admit she's a #GIRLBOSS. She was sick of having others control her life, her future, her everything. So what did she do? She showed everyone that hair doesn't make a girl and that Hannah Montana doesn't make her. She's an individual and now she's doing what she wants to do because she can. Get it Miley, just... GET IT.

4. JK ROWLING

This #GIRLBOSS took her life into her own hands and created a worldwide phenomenon while at it. Who knew a single mother living in near poverty could overcome all odds and take control. Now she has enough to live and give back to others. As a personal hero and role model for myself, Rowling shows that it's what's in your mind that can spark a revolution, not just raunchy dance moves (see above, still love you Miley!).
 
5. ANGELINA JOLIE
 
Being a #GIRLBOSS doesn't just mean having a lot of money and being famous (although Jolie doesn't fall short in either of those areas), it means being a role model, whether you want to or not. Who better as a role model than this humanitarian?
 
6. JENNIFER LAWERENCE
 
If anyone deserves to be a #GIRLBOSS, it's Jennifer Lawerence. She's a real woman. She doesn't need to be a size 2 or a perfect lady. She doesn't need to twirl her hair and giggle at guys jokes. She cusses and drinks and talks about all the food she eats and how she still wants more. Not to mention, she won the Hunger Games... or her character did... either way she had to eat a real raw fish. #BOSS
 
7. COCO CHANEL
 
 
Do I even have to explain why she's a #GIRLBOSS? She coined the term "Little Black Dress" and started a label who's name is recognized by nearly every person that walks this lovely earth of ours. I think that's all I'm going to say about her because just saying CHANEL is enough to explain her #GIRLBOSSness.
 
8. HILLARY CLINTON
 
Let's be honest here, the political world is a testosterone filled work place and only the toughest and keenest women can hold their own in there, and that's why Clinton definitely makes the list. She even replied to one reporter who asked which designer she was wearing by saying, "Would you ask a man that question?" Equality. She stays strong and inspires women everywhere. What a #GIRLBOSS.
 
9. BEYONCE
 
Her nickname is Queen B, of course she's a #GIRLBOSS! She constantly reminds women that it's us that rule the world and, yeah, men are cool and all, but we can definitely hold our own. Beyoncé is beautiful inside and out and she reminds us all that looks are nice, but they fade, but the knowledge we get now, we'll have forever.
 
10. LUPITA NYONG'O
 
 
Lastly we have this beauty! Everything about her screams #GIRLBOSS. Her first role in "12 Years a Slave" won her an Oscar. While gazing at her Oscar during her speech, she told everyone, "...may it remind me and every little child that no matter where you're from, your dreams are valid." Now she has a contract with Lancôme and an A class fashionista!

Sunset Holmie

 
Fashion week is finally here and I'm sick! I'm sneezing and coughing and sleeping and crying on the inside because I'm missing all the live fashion feed. From what I have seen, this outfit is mostly on point (Threw in a few Shelby perks!) for the fall 2014 season. I've seen a lot of black and print on the runway, which I am definitely down for! There's been more Martin look-a-like shoes (like the one's I'm wearing) strutting down the runway than in the past. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for sky high heels, but seeing functionality on the runway puts a smile on my face and inspiration in my head!

FBI #1: Ebba Zingmark

FBI:
[eff-bee-i]
1. Federal Bureau of Investigation
2. Fashion Blogger Inspiration
After sending messages to my top favorite fashion bloggers, Ebba Zingmark was the first to get back to me and what a perfect FBI to start out with! I was origionally going to have a top 15 list, but I realized that many of these bloggers are working hard and don't have time to answer a lot of questionns that I needed for my top 15 chart. I most definately understand though, I mean it takes hours to take the photos then edit them, then come up with information to blog about and to keep up a site. Lucky though, I got permission to use some of Ebba's photos to share with you!

Check out Ebba's fashion blog here and read why I think she is unique and worthy of your pageviews below!







Firstly, let us begin with her general appearance
incredibally slender with big doe eyes and lips made for pouting... 
or smiling! She does both because she isn't
just some fashion blogger gal who always has a blank stare and gaping mouth, this girl has personality and she let's it shine through her
clothes, hair styles and facial expressions!

And although her skin may be white as snow, her hair is definately not black as coal. Her firery, jet red hair has to be one of her signatures that everyone knows her by.


The picture above was from when Ebba first became a blogger and found a concrete wall that she decided would be the perfect background for her photos. She still called her blog Ebba's Photos when she took these, aka, she was even amazing "back in the day."
                        
Something else I love about Ebba is the diversity in clothing that she wears and pulls off. She can wear a gorgeously designed dress with a jean jacket, a printed tee with a bright yellow skirt AND Ozzy glasses, and she can even style herself to look like a whimsical fairy in a crochet dress and flower headband. She decides what she wants to wear based off of her own disposition and what's trendy. Just look how each outfit is different; she jumps from style to style, while still keeping her own "Ebba essence." Check out the Film strip below to see how many different ways she can style her clothes!



You're going to want to check this girl out and keep a watch on her. With her sense of fashion, model-like pressnce and individuality, Ebba Zingmark is going to go places in whatever she sets her mind to.

With all the beauty which is Spring, I decided to make an inspiration board. I have no clue how long it's going to be since I'm inspired so much by everything I see! Flowers, clothes, a simple close up of something amazing; I can't wait to share it all with you!
