I’ve always had this weird fascination about Jackie Kennedy…

Maybe its due to the fact that she was a major fashion icon during the 50s to the 70s.   Jackie wasn’t the only fashion icon in her family, not too many know about her 1st cousin Edith “Little Edie” Beale.  Little Edie was formally a socialite who lived with her mother “Big Edie” at a mansion in the Hamptons known as “Grey Gardens”.  After losing all of their money, Little Edie would put together whatever she had to make her clothing the latest statement….very eccentric.  She would do alot of layering, floral prints (from the drapes), furs, neutrals mixed in with bright colors, and she never stepped out without her signature turban on her head (she wore it due to hair loss).

This is how I would imagine Little Edie would dress in 2010.

My Tools:

-Silence & Noise floral romper

-Black & White BDG saddle shoes

-Purple Nooka watch

- Vintage clip on earrings

- Black Boyfriend Cardigan

-Vintage gold chain necklace

-Gray Beanie (my turban of choice)

-Black tights

VERY Simple. VERY Edie.
