Six Movies That Contain Fashionable Fashionistas...

When I watch a film, the first thing I tend to focus on is not the plot, not the setting and not even the cast. What my eyes get drawn to before anything else is the amazing fashion. I mean, how many times do you watch a movie and see the most fantastic clothes being worn by the actors? Then in order to rock the same style that Anne Hathaway made famous, you look in every store to try and find something similar so you can get that much closer to being Anne Hathaway, or meeting her, or smelling her hair....too far?
So if your looking for some fashion ideas or tips, or maybe you just want to change up your own personal style a bit, I'm about to give you some inspiration for your new look.
Here is my list of the top six movies with the best fashion.

6    13 Going On 30   

The great thing about this movie is that we not only get to see current fashion from this decade, but we also get to see the like, totally cool trendy trends from the eighties. I mean who doesn't love a little eighties fashion? Scrunchies, leg warmers, mini skirts, off the shoulder sweaters and ALL. THOSE. POLKADOTS. This movie really makes me wish I lived in that decade for maybe even a day just so I could wear some neon pink tights and not get looked at like I'm someone that time travelled from yesteryear! And here's a little Did You Know? fact.. At the beginning of the movie when the popular girl and her little posse are talking to Jenna, being all nasty and sarcastic - one of those girls is none other than a little well known Pretty Little Liar by the name of Ashley Benson! How cool is that? There she is in the pink top with the green scrunchie. Awh, who knew that in another seven years or so she would be playing detective, trying to find her so called stalker 'A' who's attempting to ruin her whole life?

But anyways, back to fashion. Just look at that girl on the left's shirt. How.. colourful. Then we get to the part of the movie where Jenna wakes up as a thirty year old. I don't think any girl would dream of missing out on their teen years and early twenties, but we sure would dream of having the closet that she is so lucky to have! Could you imagine waking up and having a walk in closet that you could get lost in? Dream. Come. True. This movie is full of fashion that makes us females drool like a kid in a candy store. Thanks Jennifer Garner. 

        5     Bride Wars 

Bride Wars is one of those movies that explains the mind of an engaged female, soon to be bride (or bridezilla) perfectly. This should really be a documentary that all males should be required to watch before they make the decision of asking someone to marry them. I bet engagements would decrease by fifty percent and the male population would decrease by seventy five percent due to all the scared little boys running off into hiding. That's right guys, don't mess with us girls, especially when it comes to us planning our wedding. Just give us the ring and walk away.. and then show up for the ceremony please, we kind of need you there. This movie is the queen of all bride movies for wedding fashion. All those gorgeous dresses make me want to grab the first boy off the street and beg him to marry me just so I can wear a white gown. Ha ha, just kidding. I don't need to get married to wear a wedding dress.. and eat cake.. and cry off my mascara... Anyways, not only is Kate Hudson's Vera Wang wedding dress absolutely breathtaking, but her Tiffany Novo engagement ring by Tiffany & Co is to die for. And let's not forget the very sexy orange, Oompa Loompa tan sported by Anne Hathaway. Or the bubble gum blue hair that Kate Hudson rocks. Yeah, maybe I'll avoid those two fashion statements around the time of my

wedding day..or any day for that matter. But hey, you have to give them some points for keeping completely calm during--yeah let's face it, no normal female who's been planning their wedding ever since the day they were old enough to say the word, "Tiffany" would ever be under control if the slightest malfunction occurred. Kudos ladies, for at least trying. 

4      Mean Girls 

The only word that I could use to perfectly describe the fashion of the legendary film Mean Girls is, "It is so fetch!" I know, I know, stop trying to make fetch happen, it's not going to happen. Mean Girls, I believe, really paved the way for a lot of fashion trends. For example: tank tops with holes cut in the breasts, army pants and flip flops (only because Cady Heron wore them) and we also learned that wearing your mom's skirt from the eighties is a good thing because vintage is soooo adorable. And it also inspired many, many awesome Halloween costume ideas, such as the ever so classic "Ex-wife" that could double for a zombie bride, or wearing any type of lingerie with animal ears makes you "a mouse, duh." Then there's all those rules that are very important to the female world of fashion. Like, on Wednesdays you wear pink, and you can't wear a tank top two days in a row, you can only wear your hair in a pony tail once a week and it's definitely only acceptable to wear jeans or track pants on Fridays. Did you get all that? Grool. Oh and P.S, remember last week when you borrowed my pink shirt? Yeah, I want it back. 

3     Legally Blonde

If you love pink then after you watched this movie you probably vowed to never, ever wear pink again. And if you hate pink, then after this movie you probably went on the internet and looked up how many possible shades there were of this colour. Hot pink, pastel pink, bubblegum pink, barbie pink, it doesn't matter which shade, Elle Woods has it, has worn it and has definitely rocked it. There's certainly not a Wednesday only rule to which day she's allowed to wear the colour, no sir. According to Miss Woods, everyday is pink day. And it also seems that Elle took another fashion tip from The Plastics in the costume department. She almost gave Regina George a run for her money in that adorable bunny ensemble. Who says lawyers have to wear black pant suits with slicked back pony tails and boring leather suitcases? No way. A pink leather jacket with orange pumps is definitely the way to the jury's heart. And if that doesn't impress him, be sure to casually drop your folder of notes on the floor and preform the "bend and snap" move. Not only will you convince him, but the criminal you're trying to prove guilty will probably confess to his crime. Court adjourned. 

2     Confessions of a Shopaholic 

Hi, my name is Alex and I'm a shopaholic. At least I was after I watched this movie. But hey, I think ninety-five percent of the female population are admittedly obsessed, fashionista shopaholics just like Rebecca Bloomwood. (The remaining five percent don't have a problem and don't need help whatsoever! Says girl with seven shopping bags in her hands while she flips through the newest issue of Vogue and hands the store clerk her credit card.) Every girl lives by Rebecca's life motto, "When I shop, the world gets better." I mean, that definitely makes sense, right? When I go to Chanel and ask the store employee to bring me the latest dress in Haute Couture, she's doing her job, therefore getting paid at the end of the week and then she can buy the newest Chanel bag (most likely discounted) which equals a very happy employee. See? It's all a cycle in life that brings smiles to the faces of girls who start hyperventilating at the word "Prada". And how do you know if you yourself are a shopaholic, you

ask? Well, look at the picture to the right. Does this scenario look like a picture taken out of your very own life storybook? If you said, "*Sigh* Yes, that looks like me.." then you are a shopaholic. If you said "No, that does not look like me or anything associated with my life. I do not have those Gucci Division Triple Platform Pumps in purple or that black wool Christian Dior Gold Nautical Sailor blazer.." Then you are still a shopaholic, just one who's in the denial stage. That's okay, the first step is admitting you have a problem. 

1    The Devil Wears Prada 

And the number one movie with the most fashionable fashionista is none other than The Devil Wears Prada. I mean this movie's main character, Miranda Priestly, is based and inspired by the English editor-in-chief of American Vogue magazine, Anna Wintour, aka the queen of the fashion world. Who knew the queen could be so scary? Although, if the entire world was waiting on your word as to whether or not cerulean gowns by Oscar de la Renta were the 'in' thing to wear this season, I'm sure you'd be a little grumpy too. That's a lot of pressure. In this film we kind of see the ugly, intimidating side of the fashion world such as eating nothing at all except a cube of cheese when you feel like you're going to pass out just so you look you're very best for Paris Fashion Week. Also, we learn that in order to work in fashion, you must be able to complete many impossible tasks within minutes. Like getting two copies of the unpublished Harry Potter manuscript or booking a flight from Miami to New York in hurricane weather. Yup, in order to maintain a stressful and constant on-the-go job in fashion, you must be able to make the impossible, possible. But let's face it, it would all be worth it, right? What girl wouldn't want to be given free Jimmy Choo's or the newest sold out Marc Jacobs bag? Me! Me! I would! But no matter how intense Miranda Priestly is, no matter how many lip purses she makes, and no matter how many times she calls you 'Emily' when your name is 'Andy', there's no arguing that she is most certainly the number one fashionista in all of film history without a doubt. That's all.
