I know that the blogosphere is completely overwhelmed by sartorialist knock-offs but I must say that there is a lot to be said for seeing what 'real' girls are wearing.  I have a few friends who constantly inspire me with their sense of style and thought I would share some of their looks with you.  Jess has been my friend since grade one and is one of my most creative friends.  Instead of selling lemonade like every other kid,  Jess would pull out her mom's sewing machine and craft hair accessories and felt brooches to sell to her neighbours.  As she's grown up, she has graduated from felt to fashion and is amazing at putting together a look.  Okay, so obviously everything looks good on a blonde, 6' tall pilates instructor.  What Jess does best, though, is that she never tries to hide her height like so many other tall girls.  She wears her clothes (stilettos included) with a confidence that makes people do double-takes.  She can make a shirt from Dynamite look, well, dynamite, but knows that the key to making cheap look chic is all about the accessories.  This tonal grey outfit is a perfect spring look when it's too warm for jackets but too cold for tees.  Luckily, the snow in this pic is already becoming a distant memory.  Keep checking back for more looks from my RLR Girls!
