Copy Cat: Stella McCartney

Her father? None other than Sir Paul McCartney. Her mother? The late photographer Linda McCartney. However, instead of turning into a tragic daughter of rock royalty, Stella McCartney began a fashion career and now has two successful labels under her belt, Stella McCartney and adidas by Stella McCartney.

Stella McCartney began interning for Christian Lacroix when she was 16, had her friends Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss model in the runway show for her grad collection, for free, and was once the Creative Director of Chloé.

This fashion designer not only proved herself in the industry but is also watched religiously because of her own style. Stella is so confident in her own creations that she insists on wearing them daily, recently she was spotted decked out head-to-toe in her own designs for her Spring/Summer 2010 collection running around London.

Love it or Leave It: Marine Polish

My choices for polish this season would have to be pastel shades, the soft pinks and purples match perfectly with any tan. However, the brilliant minds at WhoWhatWear are suggesting something completely different: the marines. These shades are found deep in the sea and can be spotted on any surfer girl.

Now, although I usually agree with the ladies from the site, I have to say I'm not sure if the colour is right for everyday wear. But it may go well with a white bikini.

If you're into the surf-punk trend that is big this season, according to the writers of WhoWhatWear, than marine polish may be perfect for you.
