Style Profile - Honor Jude

Hello everyone, today's post is going to be amazing. I got the chance to add to the already really popular collection of style profiles that I have done, by interviewing my amazing friend Honor. I can honestly say that Honor has one of the most amazing and original senses of style that I have ever seen. I love what she wears and she gave me some really awesome answers to the questions that I asked her. In previous posts I have been using some of the girls photos from social media of them in their favourite outfits. However for this post we took it one step further and Honor and myself styled a series of outfits from her closet and I photographed them specifically for this post. I really hope you all enjoy reading it and think Honor is just as amazing as I do. I am possibly going to take some more photos with Honor or some other girls that I know to create some personal style inspired look-books where the focus is more on the photos that the text. Let me know what you think about that...


Q- If you could only shop at one high street shop for the rest of your life, which one would you choose and why?
A- I would have to say Urban Outfitters. I find that they have really quirky and vintage pieces, but also carry really good basics, which means that as a shop it covers all the basics of what I need in my wardrobe. I also like it because it is more individual than places like TopShop that are very mainstream, and reasonably priced which is also key when you're a student.



Q- What's a fashion item that is on your current wish list?
A- I really want a decent long fur coat. I know that may seem a bit extravagant but one that you can just wear with heels and tights. Its an outfit I have always been wanting to rock and a good quality fur coat is also very comfy and super luxurious for the colder seasons.

Q- If you had to choose one material to keep in your wardrobe, which would you choose, fur or leather?
A- That's a tough one. It would have to be leather, only because I think it's more timeless and you can wear it a larger variety of outfits and in all seasons, whereas fur can be relatively limited when trying to integrate it into your everyday wardrobe.

Q- Here's another one, if you had to choose one to keep in your wardrobe, would you have trousers or dresses?
A- Oh definitely trousers. I find that they suit my body type more and are more flattering for the legs. I also think that they are more versatile and more fun for my personal style.


Q- Would you consider yourself more of a heels or flats kind of girl?
A- Heels 100%! I do love my converse and some of my boots, but heels forever, they just give me the extra height that I want and make your legs look amazing.

Q- What's the most important part of your outfits, in your personal opinion?
A- It has to be the shoes. I base all your outfits around the shoes, they make an outfit. You can have such a basic outfit but when you add some killer boots or heels it suddenly makes you stand out and makes the outfit look really put together.

Q- What's the oldest item in your wardrobe?
A- My dad old shirts. I love wearing them with outfits and I also sleep in them and they look really cool with boots and tights. I think it adds a really personal touch to my outfits as my closet because I actually wear them quite a lot.

Q- This is kind of a tough question , but what's something you wish you could wear but you just don't suit it?
A- I would like to try and get pastel colours into my wardrobe. I love pastels but because i'm so pale I find they really wash my out and make me look ill.

Q- What's your favourite current item in your closet?
A- my Manolo Blahnik heels that I got for my 18th birthday. They were very expensive but I love them and have always wanted a pair and so I had to have them. It comes from my love of Sex and the City as they are the same shoe that brings Carrie and Big back together at the end of the first film. I decided to go for this duo-tone colour rather than the classic blue from the film as it was a lot more wearable and less likely to get scuffed.

Q- That's such a lovely story, I love Sex and the City. Who is your celebrity style crush?
A- Rachel green. I love the 90s girl next door look that she rocks and she wears a lot of denim which is something that I tend to also do, she just looks really fresh and cool. Phoebe lettuce also, she is really fun with her outfits, very 'harajuku meets clueless' and I really aspire to wear those sort of clothes with the same amount of confidence that she wears them with. Kylie Jenner - I love her clothes and how edgy she is and she is so young but she looks amazing

Q- Are you a summer or a winter girl when it comes to the fashions?
A- I would have to say i'm more winter. I love the darker colours and they are more in trend during the colder months. Although I don't like layering, I love coats and jackets and they are much more easy to wear in winter. I also find that heels are more wearable in winter, so it's an instant win because I love heels.

Q- What's your favourite brand of makeup, I love your makeup and the way you do it so i'm just really interested?
A-Thank you, MAC is my favourite. Really good pigment in their products and they stay on all night. Like no other brand I have tried and I don't mind paying more for good quality, especially their lipsticks they are amazing.

Q- Do you have a  favourite lipstick?
A- I do, its from MAC and its called 'Dare You', its a really dark vampy red, I also really like 'Lady Danger' from MAC, which is a more orange red that I wore for my prom.

Thank you so much to Honor for being my amazing model and letting me bombard her with questions about her awesome style. I hope you guys liked this post, make sure to share it with all your friends and tag me so I can see that you guys are all spreading the love. 
See you Wednesday. X
