Wardrobe Envy: Fergie

No, not the Duchess of York - the singer. Lol! For a while now, I've been noticing Fergie has become increasingly more stylish (but then again, I believe she always has. As far as I'm concerned, there are different categories of stylish, 2 of them being... - the type of style that Fergie possessed: mix 'n' match with a splash of bling, Gwen Stefani belongs to this category also; and then there's also the type of style that Fergie has recently adopted: chic, well put-together i.e. traditionally stylish). I know there's a lot of you out there who would whole-heartedly disagree with me (believe me, I know Fergie doesn't have a big fan club, style-wise. Lol.) but, all the same, the point still remains that this a a gorgeous, easy, well put-together outfit, no?

NOTE I realise this post is quite similar to a post that Coco of Coco's Tea Party recently did - which I only just read a few minutes ago - but I insist this is a coincidence. A huge coincidence.
Just wanted to clear that up, in case anyone was planning on telling me off about it. Lol.

Catch.

Fergie has been looking very good lately
her wardrobe has definitely improved
still, I had a lot of respect for her outfits before too..I didn't necessarily like them that much but it was "her" style

you should def. go for the Brigitte Bardot look..it's so sexy and heads will turn ;)!

and Keith Richards has 4 children (there used to be 5)..2 with Anita Pallenberg and another daughter, Theodora, with Patti Hansen..Theodora's style rocks too..you should check her out..both Alexandra and Theodora are awesome !

Ella Gregory said...

But I think she looked pretty amazing!

As you have just written, i am not a big fan of Fergie, but she looks nice!

Meg said...

She has a great figure and has recently started choosing much better clothes, I couldn't stand her in her trashy, midriff baring days.

RE: I think Kelly was attractive - not beautiful but a bit of a siren!

Vertiginoso said...

YES, a Staggering mix of "AnatomicBOMB's Body" and "Chamelonic Elegance" : Explosive Subtlety !!!

Cordially, Antoine

discotheque confusion said...

Is this a recent picture? She just looks so skinny! When did she get so slim?

Anywayy, I love this outfit and her shoes especially, though that may have somehting to do with the fact that Carine has them too!

Molly :] said...

I think she looks great, and as discotheque chic said, so skinny!
Thanks for accepting the link, i've added you :)
Love the blogggg.
:) x

geri hirsch said...

i rarely think she looks great and here she totally does! applause for fergy!

bronwyn said...

This is a very nice well put together outfit, I love the smart shirt with the casual shorts, the bag is great and the shoes...yes, yes, yes.
PS The latest Elle South Afria was also a green is the new black special issue:)

e. jay said...

Always preferred Gwen to Fergie, but she does dress pretty nice! Love your blog.

maverickandlove said...

i totally agree with you- fergie's style has most deifnitly improved! And yeah i think it's so weird how carrie was able to afford $500 jimmy choos when she only wrote a column.. but then again she got her columns made into a book! And yeah i was suprised to hear about alot of designers not being able to draw.. my fashion teacher told me that. Alot of them are just really good thinkers and good at putting together things on mannequinns

Annabel said...

you know what!? it's so true. i kind of don't give fergie enough credit because of her..history of clothing choices. but this is a beautiful outfit!

Giselle said...

hey, thanks girl!
I do model, but not really alot, just for fun yah know? :-P

<3<3<3

Elizabeth said...

Fergie's improving. She's evolving as all girls do, I think.

ellie said...

Fergie can carry about anything she wants when it comes to fashion.

riz said...

I am about to purhcase shoes similar to these !!

Addison said...

she does look fairly cute there. i just cant bring myself to like her style, since i despise everything else about her, arrrghh!

Addison said...

yeah, i think peaches is a bit of a paparrazi whore british socialite... i have NO idea why Dotti brought her out here for their campaigns last season.

ps. ive linked your blog on my page :)

Oh my god I KNOW! She needs to release it-I don't have nothing to read right now-I'm reading the previous 3 right now for my entertainment..:) Thanks, the title was like a thought that popped into my head when I made the blog..:)
[[ps: fregie's style has improved a long ways from B.E.P. days..I actually like it now.]]

ellie said...

Thanks for the comment. Yeah, I know I'm hard to figure out. Wish it was warm enough here for shorts. Hope those shoes are comfortable that Fergie's wearing.

Caroline said...

i've never thought of her as "well dresses" but this outfit is lovely!

Giselle said...

awww...that's mean! lol
no, I'm not with an agency or anything, I just do freelance :-)

They are still very good-even after reading them over and over! Well I think A is Hanna or maybe it could be Ian..or possibly her parents-you just never know..and I cannot wait until the next 5 come out! I was very very excited when I found out Unbelieveable + 4 more were coming out...who will go on the back cover for 4 books? Hmm..:)
[[ps: I know what ya mean about the tees, I have felt like this before about things..shh!! :)]]

HOT SHOES!

Candice DeVille said...

I love Gwen Stephanie and I love Fergie's style too. There is something so edgy and put together at the same time about them. The way it says, it's okay to be super cool, have piercings and tatts, and still be a complete glamour girl.
I've linked to you over on my blog as another lovely Australian based style Maven.

Romany said...

discothequechic: yes it's extremely recent, within the week I'm pretty sure. I know, how much weight has she lost? Oh Carine has the shoes? Strange I always imagined absolutely everything in Carine's wardrobe to be black. Lol.

bronwyn: oh I had no idea Elle did a green issue, but it's probably only in South Africa, yes? It sounds like a very interesting issue. :)

maverick: oh that's right, I completely forgot about the book! Although she only got $25, 000 for that didn't she? Or perhaps royalties? Not sure, whatever it is it's unrealistic, but the show is still great. Lol. Thank you so much, you have given my fashion-designing hopes a raise once more! :)

Super Kawaii Mama: Oh wow thank you so much! :)

Thank you for all your comments everyone!

Alya said...

she changed her style, thank goodness.. maybe a new stylist? or maybe she's just too old for that pre-teen/teenage girl band stuff!

eitherway, i'm happier now.
