I like many of her outfits, but overall I feel like they're over-styled and calculated. There doesn't seem to be a shred of whimsy (like, oh today I can wear that turtleneck with this and another day I can maybe wear it with that .... and so on). Everything seems very strictly planned out, down to the last piece of jewelry, and even sometimes the way she holds her bag!
I'd like to see her "freestyle it" a little more, some outfits that are looser and more organic. Pack some pieces and go from there...maybe?

It's hard for me to enjoy her clothes as they appear to be disposable to her. Does she ever wear the same thing more than once?
I've read an interview from her in which she says that all of the clothes she wears isn't actually hers, that she borrows a lot of the pieces.
The interview was posted four weeks ago.
Here's exactly what she said:
Do you own everything you wear that gets shot for the blogs?
"I probably shouldn’t say this, but a lot of my clothes are borrowed. I’m sure people look at me and think, Pfff, this girl, she’s just a silly girl with a credit card with no limit. But that’s not true! Maybe no designer will loan to me now…I mean, isn’t the whole point that girls think I bought the dress from so-and-so, so they go out and buy that dress? "

That quote confirms what Not Plain Jane said and I think what we all think. Her style isn't very honest. She dresses just to get photographed, a bit like celebrities on the red carpet. I do like her outfits because she wears beautiful pieces ( like that Bouchra Jarrar top with the long skirt for example) but I prefer her style prior to the hype.
