We live in a world made up by pretty, fit and toned postars. Jessica Simpson, Lindsey Lohan, Nicole Richie, Jennifer Aniston, Ashley & Mary-Kate, Sienna Miller - the style icons of today are pretty much all the same and created to fit a special MTV market. Someone like Chloe Sevigny can't compete with that in any way. As so many people like to say: she's not "pretty", she's "ugly". That she dresses cool, has a cool personality, interesting things to say, is involved in interesting projects and other things like that doesn't really change that. 'Cause she's not 'pretty' and she doesn't follow the trends and she takes many chances in the way she dresses instead of just wearing 'pretty' dresses, skinny jeans and high boots. 
I personally think she's interesting and I love that she dares to be 'out-there' even though it's not always perfect. It's fun to watch someone with the guts to try new things.
"She's trying too hard to be cool" someone said which is quite interesting considering the amount of time, money and effort the MTV stars of today (for example those I mentioned in the beginning) put on their image. If that's not trying to hard then I don't know what is. (?) (Don't get me wrong, I really like some of their styles also but it's just boring when EVERYONE starts to look the same)
