Stylish Resolution #13: Steal Some Style

Have you ever been watching a movie and thought to yourself, “Damn, I wish I had her wardrobe?” I do that all the time, which is why I created the post on “How to Get All the Looks From The Devil Wears Prada.”

The real stars of some of the greatest fashion films in history are not the actresses themselves, but the costume designers. For me personally, my favorite film characters’ looks include Jennifer Garner in 13 Going on 30 (Susie DeSanto), Jennifer Aniston in The Breakup (Carol Oditz), the entire cast of Sex & the City (Patricia Field), Amy Adams in American Hustle (Michael Wilkinson), again, the entire cast of The Devil Wears Prada (and again, Patricia Field), Elizabeth Hurley in Bedazzled (Deena Appel), Michelle Pfeiffer in Scarface (Patricia Norris), and Sharon Stone in Casino (Rita Ryeck).

What are your favorite movie or TV character wardrobes? Watch them again and make notes. Pause the screen and snap a photo or look them up online. Then take that inspiration with you the next time you go shopping. It’s perfectly acceptable to steal their style. Just don’t forget to thank the costume designer.
