Inspiration:Dont Trust the B**** in Apt 23

Now that I'm venturing off to living on my own, completely enslaved by a 12 month lease, I decided to watch an entire show simply because "Apt" was in the title. My obsession with it quickly grew, however, when I became completely infatuated with one of the main characters, Chloe, played by Krysten Ritter. 

Her style on the show is completely eclectic but classic at the same time. And her makeup is always done so perfectly, with wide doe eyes and bold red lips. She lives by her never fearless attitude that is both charming and terrifying to me. I have never been the type of person to thrive off of other people, but she is. 

This outfit is one of my favorites from both seasons of the now canceled show. The fur coat adds such a perfect touch to her crimson dress with gold detailing belt and chic red sunglasses. Chloe's outfits typically have at least one red piece that she styles with much darker clothes. She always looks like she just threw on an outfit, and, often times, she probably does.

Her makeup is always perfectly classy, slightly reminding me of Audrey Hepburn's doe eyes and thick eyebrows. To mimic this look, one should go for light blush, dark lips (using lipliner and no additional gloss), brow shadow, and nose contouring. 

Her hair here is my favorite. The messy curls add volume to the look and create this sort of babydoll appearance. Bangs should be straightened and hair moussed then curled with a medium sized iron. Only some sections should be curled, others should be messily left be.

But what I'm obsessed with most when it comes to Chloe is her attitude towards life. She's carefree and fun. Everything about her is done not necessarily effortlessly, but carelessly. She lives for herself and nobody else. It's a trait that I not only admire but aspire to also have. She is exciting, and although at times, a bit self serving, it is not without remembering the people that actually, genuinely care for her.

In one of my favorite episodes, the last episode of Season 1, it's revealed that Chloe is the superstar hero in a graphic novel titled "Tall Slut No Panties". It's just so fucking cool.



I hope you enjoyed this bit of inspiration that I found. I hope to post a little more often, since I know my last post was a while ago!
