    ICONIC IDOL: Grace Kelly

    Cannes Film Festival, 1955 is where it all began, when Hollywood’s golden girl captured Prince Rainer of Monaco’s heart. A year later, she was no longer just a movie star known for her beauty and elegance, but a princess at the age of 26.

    “The Grace Kelly Look” became popular when renowned costume designers like Edith Head and Helen Rose created dazzling yet chic, lady-like outfits for her.

    Thirty years since her passing, Princess Grace Kelly is still regarded as one of the most stylish silver screen fashion icons. Below are a few of her most memorable iconic looks…

    Fancy dressing like a princess? Of course you do, we all would wish to look as regally ravishing as Kate Middleton.  The ever-striking Duchess of Cambridge certainly knows how to get our attention in the style stakes. From her feminine, floaty high street frocks to her ultra-glam Alexander McQueen and Jimmy Choo combos, this lady knows how to style up a fashionable look worthy of fashionista-status.
    After all, we all remember when she wore a Reiss ensemble, it sold out within hours and crashed the brand’s website! Well there’s no need for such a panic today, as we’ve taken a little look into her fave jewellery pierces and found some ever-so-similar styles at Sophie’s Closet. That’s right, you can get prim and proper princess style, right here, right now – no website crashing necessary!
