the wasson effect

Today i will be speaking to you about a style crush i have, i refuse to say girl crush because i tend to cringe when i read those words in a magazine as they come across as stalker-ish. Style-crush i believe is more appropriate because i'm not loving this young lady's bad habits of smoking and pulling the finger coz she's just that damn cool, so i'm not fully committed to the title you see.
The girl in question being Ms Erin Wasson, i always feel silly saying her name out loud to someone because her last name doesn't seem right, it sounds unfinished, but i don't mind typing it...

Moving along, after seeing countless amounts of pics of this lovely model 'off duty' as they say, i have built a respect toward her styling ways, of course as all hot looking stylish ladies, she just looks as if she's thrown her outfit on, which in seeing her body language in other photos, she actually might have.
This girl just looks awesome, she's got that smouldering pouting look on her face like "i just stole your lipstick, what are you gonna do about it?", hence why she's one of the faces of Maybelline, and a glorious tan that is so not fake, and lastly a wicked sense of sexy/cool/dishevelled and sometimes homeless looking style that isn't too over the top, alot of the time she has barely any jewellery on, just her tatts, boots and hats (now i'm into rhyming it seems). She's like, so totally hot right now...
oh and her hair is just what i'm liking at the moment, a bit o' balayage it's called (fading from dark roots to light ends), so Mum, this is why i won't colour over my apparantley scraggly looking hair, coz i'm going for this look orright?

I have loved and tried to copy pretty much every look i've seen her do, the pic just above provoked me to purchase animal print boots - so worth it...
Also, this little chickie has been busy designing (and obviously modelling) her own jewellery line in her 'spare time'. Her pieces are similar to her, simple yet cool and a little bit American-Indian influenced too i reckon, so you may see her wearing a piece or two every now and then, it's called Low Luv, and i would like to get my hands on one of them (i see it and want it remember), this is her below with some of it on for the campaign, and if you look at the tatt on her arm that's where i think the American-Indian part comes in.
of course there's some boobie, it wouldn't be classic Erin without any, so this is the lady i think has great style and can be basic black dress one minute and hat and fur coat and man-style pants the next. Kudos to her.
