Style Icon: Micheline Pitt

I've decided to start a new and regular post- Style Icons. Just as the name suggests-  I want to share with you some of my fashion and style icons- both past and present. Featuring sassy gals who have great style and beauty tips

To kick things off, one of my most recent and new found "Style Icons" is none other that the lovely Micheline Pitt.

Micheline Pitt is not only a fantatsic makeup artist, and hair stylist, she is also an artst, model, and clothing designer for Deadly Dames (via Pin Up Girl Clothing). Micheline has posted some tutorials on youtube, where she dishes out some amazing hair and makeup tips and makes them look like a breeze; she also comes off as very down to earth which makes her even more likable (and rateable).

This gal even tried out for Americans Next Top Model- and no doubt didn't make it past episode one, because of her kick ass tattoos and amazing personal style.

Micheline is set to release her first hair how to DVD right away, so keep an eye out for that. The youtube tutorials she has released thus far, show easy to achieve but rockin styles that any gal could accomplish at home with a few key tools.

Micheline's style is the kind I love most- rockabilly and 50's/60's vintage. While she is often decked out In Pin Up Girl Clothing's sassy, vintage inspired items, she also has some amazing vintage pieces, which she occasionally alters and restores. I get the feeling a lot of girls get inspiration from Micheline, and why not? She is hard working and gorgeous; not to mention, she does a ton of DIY, connects with her fans, and makes herself available to other girls out there who have beauty and style questions.

Annalise By Pin Up Girl Clothing

Although I already own a few pieces from Pin Up Girl Clothing, I have only just recently realized how beautiful their clothing is and how I want it all! Unfortunately, the saying is true... Money Doesn't Grow On Trees, and therefor my mail box and shopping bags are not filled with gorgeous Pin Up Girl items... well, that's not entirely true... I do have one dress happily on its way in the mail.

I saw this oh so cute Pin Up Girl dress on their website the other day. I think it is just darling, and it too, joins my growing list of things I hope to have.

Can you see why I like it so much? First of all, its black, which is always my first choice. But it also has some very cute, and retro feeling pink elephants, who just happen to be tipsy- naughty elephants!

While at one point I thought these types of dresses ( not just this brand) were too expensive- and occasionally I do still think that- I have noticed that the prices don't seem so steep anymore (maybe they have gone down, or maybe I'm not so stingy anymore); and when you take into consideration the quality of the product, well, it all evens out in the end. With my new frame of mind (ie. spending more for better quality), I hope to make this dress my own. And to my delight, my favorite local boutique, Rowena, posted that they have just received the Annalise Dress with pink elephants and have put it out in the floor to be gobbled up by happy shoppers.

If you would like to make to beauty your as well, you can find it on the Pin Up Girl website: http://www.pinupgirlclothing.com/

Or if you live near by you can, like mention, find it at Rowena, located at 10762-82ave. Check out their facebook page for hours.
