TrashDoll rule #1 - draw inspiration from anything and everything!
Who have we been admiring, you may ask. Well let me tell you.
Amy Lee (singer of Evanescence) is not only
talented, brilliant, and gorgeous, but a hell of a style-icon!
We tried to describe Amy's style in one word, but we couldn't do it, so here's a list:
versatile, fearless, gothic, elegant, punk, pixie, timeless, fierce, REAL.
Here's Amy onstage. We love the tutu, we love the
charm-necklace, we love the jewel-tones with her coloring!
One thing we love about Amy- the way she takes a trend and makes it her own.
This tiered skirt is definitely on-trend, but give it a romantic touch
and pair with stockings (complete with runs- a gal after my own heart!),
and you've got a look that's 100% Evanescence.
Quirky punk touches keep her elegant, goth-goddess style playful!
We love this romantic pink skirt with the striped tights!
This black-widow keeps her soft-side on her sleeve!
Lovin' the pink touches with this layered ribbon top.
(And Amy, WHERE did you get that necklace?! WANT!)
This mix-n-match of patterns makes my lil heart happy.
A full, flowing skirt is updated with a checker pattern and a funky top,
and of course, these red-tones are a killer on Amy's porcelain coloring!
Monochrome taken to a whole new (and glorious) level!
Amy layers shades of white and cream with varying textures and structures,
completing with pretty pearls, taking the bridal look and running wild with it!
This make-up look is so insanely soft and pretty, while still keeping
that romanti-goth enchantress look alive and well.
Amy goes from fresh-faced to fierce so easily! Love the single-focus make-up here
(keeping the lips almost bare and keeping the vivid color and sharp
details to the eyes) and the new take on heroin-chic!
One thing about Amy- she's never been afraid to mix textures to create a one-of-a-kind look!
The cut-off tee, exposed cami, and lace top-layer come together seamlessly, with a long,
layered necklace. Just add sneer to complete this look.
Amy Lee is our favorite faerie-gal! The multi-colored tulle tutu paired with the
glitter-tights and subtly shimmering top can't help but remind us of pixie-dust!
Carpe Noctum, my dears! (That means 'seize the night', for those of you who
didn't flunk out of Latin in high school.) Amy's look here is divinely dark,
with her jet hair smooth and taking back smokey-eyes for us night-owls.
(One can never have enough black eyeliner- that's TrashDoll rule #2.)
Even in a seemingly innocuous sweater-dress, Amy makes this one all her own
with some stunning accessories! This intricate choker is definitely on our wish-list!
Candid-Amy is a bit more skater-chic than goth-goddess, but we love it anyway!
(Still digging those jewel-tones on her, and check out the layered bracelets!)
Amy combines modern punk-rocker with elegant black-widow. Bondage pants and
graphic tee are fun, youthful pieces, while the leather under-bust corset and sheer, shredded,
lace bell-sleeves on her undershirt are more reminiscent of King Arthur's Guinevere.
Amy Lee meets Amy Brown! The outfit from the Billboard Music Awards looks like something
straight off one of Brown's faerie illustrations, made of gossamer spider-silk and starlight.
(Forgive me while I get poetic!) Love the layers, love the covered-uncovered look of her
sheer top, love the twilight-colors, and as always, LOVE the corset!
Amy looks like the perfect fairy-tale heroine here! The details of the
cream top, the black lace shrug, the red hair-ribbon, the dark smokey-eye...
Add piano and candlelight, and this look is just plain flawless.
Check out Evanescence's new album and keep an eye out for more
ethereal rocker-girl style from the one and only Amy Lee!
