Lily Allen

Every once in a fashion age, there comes an icon who doesn't even realize it. Lily Allen is one of those icons. I love her. Everything about her. The euroclash neon-bright Crayola-explosion colored clothes, the ribbons in her hair, the thick eyeliner that makes her look more fresh-punk than Brigitte Bardot (thank god), the huge hoop earrings and dainty pendant necklaces, the babydoll dresses that no one else would dare to wear with as much panache.
Most of all, I love her devil-may-care attitude. Every picture of Lily has her smiling, throwing the deuces or sticking her tongue out and just generally being herself, totally comfortable in her skin, and having a rockin' good time while she's at the height of her popularity. Oh, did I mention that her music's pretty cool too? I think we are so over the emo garbage that pop princesses (read: hilary duff and avril lavigne, etc) churn out all day long. Honesty is good. In music. In fashion. In life.
What can I say? I have a new fashion icon. Lily Allen, I salute you!

i've been hunting for toggle outerwear (like the yellow one in the picture) all over Germany but no such luck! is there a website that you can recommend that ships internationally and don't charge exorbitant prices for shipping over to that part of europe? :(
