Björk is one of my many style icons and while i don't get looked at quizzically when i say Alexa Chung holds a place on that list, i do when i profess my love for Björk's clothes (in particular her threads from the '90s). i have unshakable faith in my belief that everything Björk wears is a piece of art, and like all art forms, you get people that love it or hate it.
here are my top five Björk looks:
1. her outfit in the official music video for her track 'It's Oh So Quiet'                            
                                          
2. the dress she wore at the Roskilde Festival in 1996 (photographed by Latvis)
3. her outfit in the series of photographs Jeurgen Teller took of her back in 2007
4. the dress worn during her performance at the Royal Opera House in 2002 (the track is 'Jóga', a favourite)               
                                      
5. and last but not least, her infamous 'swan dress' worn to the 2001 Academy Awards (an inevitable final choice, wasn't it?)


Frida freak
the late Mexican painter Frida Kahlo is a massive inspiration to me. she was a kick-ass revolutionary, artist, intellectual, and style icon. the above are Frida Kahlo inspired items I've found on Etsy.
