[Celebrities get paid to look good and serve as a style guide to all us common folk, and part of looking good is flaunting their totally awesome fashion sense. Each week, I will be highlighting my Style Idol of the week: a celebrity who consistently shows keen fashion sense and whose closet I would raid in a heartbeat.
Of course, no celebs are immune to the occasional “what the hell were they thinking?” moment, but for the most part, these celebs look foxy and fabulous and inspire us all to do the same.]
Her hairstyle was one of the biggest fads of the 90’s, she’s dated (and married) some of Hollywood’s hottest hunks, and she’s known for her girl-next-door looks that continue to hold true even as she approaches forty(!). Jennifer Aniston typifies simple elegance, and is a style icon for many women because of her easy, casual and minimalist style. She doesn’t go for a lot of bells and whistles, but her streamlined shirt and jeans combo always accentuates her fabulous, athletic body.
Aniston even keeps it simple at red carpet events with sheath dresses or classic cocktail dresses in flattering shapes and neutral tones. She encourages women around the globe to play up their natural beauty, opting for loose, easy waves and natural makeup over the over-done looks of many other Hollywood celebs. This ability to look fabulous (even nearly nude!) without seeming to try too hard makes Jennifer Aniston my Style Idol of the Week.

I personally think she’s too generic. Look at all the black. Not to mention, she never takes a risk, and, in order to be a style icon, you need to do so, and succeed.

I agree with her being generic–yes, she does dress well all the time, but in order to be a style idol you have to be edgy or original. She wears whats already fashionable well, but she doesn’t make it her own nor does she try new things.

Like the above posters, I wouldn’t call her a “Style Idol”. Look at what she’s wearing…it all looks fine, but if you saw a normal woman on the street in one of those outfits, you wouldn’t look twice.

you really wouldnt look twice?! i would. i realise shes not doing anything outrageous… but isnt that refreshing? im surprised you people think shes dull, she has a classic elegance to her style, which is very much her own.
