Modern Jackie

By Ladylikechic @Ladylike_Chic
Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis is, without a doubt, one of the most stylish women in history.  Her grace, elegance, and strength has generations of women, myself included.

She is known for so many iconic style moments, that it would take too long to list all of them in one post.  There are her classic sunglasses, her perfect coif, and those stunning Chanel jackets....  
As Jackie continues to influence my sartorial choices, I've recreated three of Jackie's iconic styles, giving them the thoroughly modern twist this blog was built on.  They do say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right?  


Switching out the matching skirt with a leather Jason Wu pencil skirt has given this look a little edge.  And for the cherry on the sundae, I added two pops of color in the clutch and stud earrings.  

While Jackie looks beautiful in pastel blue, choosing a cobalt color brings this look to now.  Since this Roksanda Ilincic dress has a yellow panel at its back, I paired it an adorable yellow and pearl necklace.  Another modern update to the classic strand of pearls...

As I've said before on the blog, I love a colorful pant.  These red beauties are a perfect update to Jackie's look and I couldn't resist pairing some gold jewelry with them.  Even a casual look deserves a little shine. Suit Look: Rebecca Taylor jacket, Haider Ackermann blouse, Jason Wu skirt, Michael Kors clutch, and Kate Spade earrings. Sheath Look: Roksanda Ilincic dress, Hobbs Invitation belt, Miu Miu clutch, and Kate Spade necklace.  Casual Look: Rick Owens top, Catherine Malandrino cropped pants, Burberry sunglasses, AZ Collection bracelet, and Tory Burch shoes All photos courtesy of Polyvore and Getty Images.
