- Leigh Lezark
I love Leigh Lezark in this sweet black & white Chanel dress with the eyelet/fishscale pattern, that she wore to the PFW AW12 show at the Grand Palais this month. Those transverse black lines put it over the top. Looks so great with her hair, and the metallic silver on the accessories keeps it modern. She wore it with a little black cape!
The art of life is about balance in all respects. Hence my personal belief that edgy people look good in sweet, crisp, or really femme clothes, and sweet people look good in edgy or arty clothes. Sweet on sweet can be boring or cloying, and edgy on edgy can tend to just look in need of a bath. (Think of Pete Doherty.) Angelina Jolie with goth hair and makeup in tattoos, leather pants and biker boots can be overkill, but lightened up in a little shift dress & chic sunglasses she looks like a million bucks. And Emma Stone & Emma Roberts both look best when they take a risk and wear something bold or avant garde. It's why a vintage slip looks good on Norah Jones, and trashy on Courtney Love. And why DJ Leigh looks so great doing ladylike here, and I never wear pink.
