My new style crush...Zoe Kravitz



Well with parents like the super stylish Lenny Kravitz and beautifully eclectic Lisa Bonet, this girl not only had great genes to start with, but also two of the best wardrobes to raid.


You can see the influence of her parents’ styles in how she dresses, she’s part grungy rocker, part free spirited hippy. She has this fantastic eclectic look and devil-may-care attitude that looks like she just jumped out of bed and threw on whatever she found on the floor… and maybe she did!

Having just turned 21, she still keeps her makeup young and fresh, occasionally opting for a bright red lip, but in general quite reserved with her makeup. Her hair is usually left long and naturally wavy, however she recently took the fashionista plunge and chopped it off into a shaggy crop…not many people could pull that look off (I certainly would never attempt it) but she looks even better than before.


Some of my favourite looks are those of her caught shopping or walking around New York City, effortless and cool. Some vintage denims, plain tshirts, layered cardigans. My type of girl! However even for events, she follows the dress codes while managing to stay true to herself. See her at the Chanel A/W 09’ show wearing the Chanel monochrome tights and dress. She keeps it her own by layering lots of necklaces, unstyled hair, shades and a cool beret.


Another reason to love Zoe…her best friend is none other than Alexander Wang…yes, these two seem inseparable at events and the lucky girl gets to constantly wear his designs! Jealous much?! See them here at an after-party…she makes chunky heels with an oversized red hoody look good. And then of course wearing a Wang original at the Vogue fashion funds party. Grrrr. And i'm clearly not the only one who loves Zoe, she's also the new face of Vera Wang's Princess Fragrance!

To pull off the Zoe Kravitz look you’ll need to invest in a few staples. Worn denims, plain vests and t-shirts, layered necklaces, headbands, scarves and vintage jewellery, flat boots, …a best friend called Alexander Wang and oh I dunno, a bank balance as big as hers too?
