The stylish Bella Hadid is the Style Icon for the month. This stunning woman is an American model who has graced many runaways in the last couple of years, and she is now one of the most sought-after models of her generation. You can also get away with saying Bella Hadid is one of the most watched street-style star at fashion week. This stunning woman is a force to reckon with in the fashion world and she knows it!

Bella Hadid can look great in pretty much anything. Her amazing physique makes her pieces and accessories stand out so well. She is definitely a pro when it comes to all things fashion and style. No wonder she was named the most powerful dresser of 2022. I think she is a fabulous Style Icon that looks effortlessly chic and stylish both on and off the runaway.

Bella Hadid’s style screams fun, fashion, comfy, and yet sophisticated chic and elegance. She likes to wear pieces and accessories from emerging designers, as well as archive vintage fashion, and this blend of both types of designers helps create a signature look for her.

I love how she carries herself; she wears her clothes so well. This Style Icon is like a walking billboard. Any brand/style she wears sells out quickly and I can see why she is so influential in the fashion industry. When I am in search of some fresh inspiration, this stylish queen always comes to mind. She slays every look and her outfits are always point!

So last week, I wrote about the Balcony Shaped Woman, if you missed that post, catch up here.

This week is all about the Pocket Rocket Woman. I never knew such a shape existed until I started researching the various female body shapes and that is one of the things I love about the Female Body Shapes series, it opens my eyes to facts I never knew.

The Pocket Rocket-shaped woman is petite and curvy – some of these women are blessed with very sexy hourglass measurements on their miniature frames,  celebrities like Kylie Minogue and Elizabeth Taylor are examples of the Pocket Rocket curvy woman. Others like  Natalie Portman, Clara Bow, and Norma Desmond have less symmetrical proportions.

Here are the DOs and DONTs of this shape:

DOs

  1. Keep your accessories small and simple so they don’t overshadow you
  2. Go for fitted pieces to show off or create curves
  3. Opt for high heels to give you an illusion of a longer frame
  4. Go for colour block outfits, they make the body appear longer
  5. Go for V-neck pieces, they give the illusion of a longer body
  6. If hats are right up your street, go for hats with small proportions
  7. Embrace your style with custom accessories.

Tips:

Since their development in the 1960s, pin badges are still an evergreen element of the fashion industry. Custom pin badges are as much about self-expression as they have trending. It is common to see them on red carpets, catwalks, fashion week street shoots, and as regular items of luxury brands. And it can even be preserved as a collection!

DONTs

  1. Avoid maxi skirts and dresses, they will make you appear shorter.
  2. Avoid wearing any bold pattern or colour for the same reason listed above.
  3. Stay away from dungarees and shorts, it will make you look like a child.
  4. Stay away from ponchos, they will swallow up your small frame instantly.
