Clothes of the London Closing Ceremony

Yes, this was six days ago (I’m sorry for being late with this news!). Watching the Olympics was absolutely mind-blowing. It is amazing what athletes can do, the amount of training that must have taken! I’m sure everyone else that watched is thinking the same thing, “Why can’t I do that?!”.

Anyway, straying away from the point a bit there, the Brit pop culture. What with Annie Lennox, Jessie J, Take That, the Spice Girls… plus some of the greatest British models, including Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss, gowns and gorgeous outfits are to be expected.

My personal faves:

1.     Annie Lennox: her red and black, Halloween + theatre-esque dress, her dancers’ dresses… just the theatricality and over-the-top attitude. Honestly, it kept making me think of the “Rocky Horror Picture Show” and “Dracula” had some very stylish offspring.
2.     Kate Moss: no her dress was not the greatest we’ve seen her in, but she is just gorgeous. From her hair to her figure, damn she makes me jealous.
3.     Take That: probably one of my favorite British bands to date. If any of you haven’t heard it yet get on Youtube and listen to “Love Love” by Take That (if you think it sounds familiar, it was on the X-Men First Class Soundtrack and is one of my absolute favorite songs by them, also one of the first ones I listened to). Outfit-wise, their jackets are classic soldier inspired detail jackets, and yes they really do always coordinate their clothes like that.
