Partners in Fashion by Ela

I was incredibly flattered when Lisi asked me to be one of her guest bloggers on TBF, my source for all things beautiful. I knew I had to post something to do with being beautiful and well....came up with nothing. But the other day as the hubs and I got dressed {in our separate closets} and emerged minutes later unplanned, in "the same neutral tones" {his words not mine} it struck me that over the years, we've influenced each other's styles and now tend to dress similarly even though we don't mean to {thankfully he skips the skinnies and liquid leggings}. So I thought I'd write about some stylish pairs who, intentional or not, always make a perfect match.

David and Victoria Beckham

laid back never looked so good

gray with a touch of black lustre
She may not be the poster child for having well balanced meals but there's no denying that post Spice Girls, I've never seen Victoria look less than stellar.

Will and Jada Smith

bold in blue
What she lacks in height, he makes up for with his ears. I kid, I kid. I am incredibly charmed by Will Smith and incidentally, my hubs is rather drawn to Jada.


love the touch of Will's pin to coordinate with Jada's dress

Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise

stripes and ballet flats

Motherhood 101 Rule #38: Always make sure the height of your 3yr old's heels...er sorry *ballroom shoes* match yours.

Seal and Heidi Klum

glam

or casual chic,
they're nothing short of perfect and have the most beautiful kids{+ two not pictured}.


Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen
beachy hair, clutches, minis and scarves

Don't hate me, but I can't always tell who's who when they're apart.
Hey, at least I'm not afraid to admit it.

Ever dress to match your significant other, sibling, BFF or kid(s)?

Thanks for having me, TBF!

Great post, Ela. My man and I seem to dress alike often too--glad we're not alone. I can't tell the Olsens apart either and I like to htink I'm good at that kind of stuff. But I' m usually wrong.

What a fun post, Ela! I can't say I dress like anyone, or at least, not that I've noticed. :P

I don't like matchy-match but we've "coordinated" before (ie: a tie that totally doesn't clash with my dress).

Katie and suri?! Bahahahahahahaha!

your will smith comment made me snicker. i can't stand him, but i am the only one that feels that way.

and i hate those olsen twins, too.

lordy, i am on the rampage!

let's end with a positive note! heidi and seal have the cutest kids! suri is an alien, so at least we have confirmation now that aliens exist! victoria beckham is so thin, but she does look great! and her husband always looks like he has quite the package in those underwear ads!

Great post, Ela! Love all of these couples- and of course the Olsen twins are my muses! Or one of them is, the other not so much, but honestly not sure which! XOXO

It's fun to sometimes dress to match with my boy! But not all the time though:P

I love Suri Cruise, how adorable is she? She's the world's most stylish little girl!!

Those Beckhams give me hot flashes... sizzle. And the Smiths too.
And I kinda laughed that Katie's fashion partner was a toddler rather than her hubs... but they do make a cute pair (her and Suri that is).

Awesome post E!!!

these are all such stylish pairs!

my husband and i both like bright colors, so we occasionally clash...badly!

Great roundup....the Beckhams always look HOT. Will & Jada are a true power couple always lookin fly!

How cute are Heidi and Seal's kids? And is it just me or is it a little weird that Suri is already wearing heels?

I think the hubs would guffaw in my face if I asked him to match me...but I think it's cute when mommies and little girls coordinate!
