Can Non Celebrities Dress like Celebs?

Today, while watching 106th and Park, I couldn't help but notice Rocsi's eclectic mix of patterns in her ensemble. She wore a loose fitting nautical striped shirt, a graffiti-floralesque ballet skirt, and a gold chain necklace. As I was watching the show, Rihanna's most recent video, "What's My Name" featuring Drake came on. And I had an epiphany, oh she's imitating Rihanna's look from the What's My Name Video where she sports a bright red wig, black corset top, black and white stripped blazer, black and white color block gym shorts, nude pantyhose, orange ankle socks and camel colored "granny oxfords". This is Rihanna's signature look, and it works on her because she is a celebrity with a certain branded image associated with her, but does it work for others?

Clothing in the City

Today, Fashionista.com reported that Olivia Palermo, star of MTV's The City will be releasing a fashion line sometime in the near future. The fashion release will be documented through the filming of a reality show. There is no word yet on specific release dates, but I am curious as to what the young socialite will be marketing in her brand. If I had to predict, I would definitely say that Palermo's line would focus on accessories. After all, Joe Zee did hire her as an Accessories Editor at Elle. Rightfully so, too. Palermo has been known to grace the red carpets and white tents with some amazing cocktail rings, necklaces, handbags, shoes and a multitude of other outfit making pieces. I can't wait to see her collection premiere!
