GLEE Style: Quinn Fabray

Recently, I've decided to do my first style series focusing on the well dressed characters of GLEE. The first wardrobe recreation I did was for everyone's favorite show tune singer: Rachel Berry. Next I wanted to take a look at McKinley High's queen bee: Quinn Fabray. 

Who is Quinn Fabray?

Quinn Fabray is played by up and coming actress: Diana Argon. She is the girl that everyone finds perfect. Quinn has been head cheerleader, dated the quarter back of the football team, she is president of the celibacy club, and she is perfectly gorgeous. Quinn has everything a high school girl needs, and she often uses that power to antagonize the outcast, Rachel Berry. Quinn is often torn between her desire for romance, as she fosters relationships between Finn, Puck and Sam, and her lust for for the crown of Prom Queen. After all, "Prom queens live, on average, five years longer than regular people. Probably because they smile all the time." 

Quinn Fabray Style Essentials

Romantic dresses- Lace, floral, and a flouncy skirt, Quinn Fabray's style is all about leaving a little up to the imagination by offering a wardrobe full of innocence

Ballet Flats- Comfort is key when dancing around, but Quinn retains a feminine touch by wearing ballet flats

Cropped jeans- Quinn's cropped jeans show a feminine silhouette while remaining classic

A Cross- As a devout christian, Quinn likes to keep her faith close to her heart

Ruffles- Quinn is often seen wearing ruffles on many of her tops and cardigans. Ruffles add a subtle touch

Cardigans- A cardigan can add contrast, as well as modesty to any outfit

GLEE Style: Rachel Berry

I've decided to embark on my first ever post series (Finally)! We're going to take a look at the characters of one of my favorite shows: Glee. Each character has their own unique persona and a wardrobe to go along with it! Glee is a sassy mixture of high school drama, laugh out loud comedy, and motifs that touch on social issues. This show offers a little bit for everyone, and so it became a must watch for many Americans. But not to forget the most alluring part of the show: the music. My aim is to recreate a few outfits from the character's wardrobe with a wearable approach and an affordable budget. With that, I introduce my first inspiration, the Broadway diva herself: Rachel Berry.

Who is Rachel Berry? 

                    

Rachel is a "strong and driven but somewhat neurotic" female lead portrayed by actress Lea Michele. She is the self appointed student leader of the Glee club. Throughout the series Rachel is torn between her career aspirations and her affections for Finn. She is the adoptive daughter of an interracial, homosexual couple, which adds to her unique disposition. Rachel's idol is Barbara Streisand. 

Rachel Berry Style Essentials

Plaid- on skirts, accessories, and the occasional cape, Rachel is a girl that loves her plaid

Pleated skirts- she opts for the preppier pleated skirt, which adds fullness to her small frame

Sweaters- she is seen in a lot of sweaters and cardigans, many with knit designs like a horse on the front or cable knit

Knee socks/tights- Rachel often adorns her legs with knee socks or tights

Loafers/flats- she is almost always in some sort of flat shoe, whether it is penny loafers or simple ballet flats

Mary janes- many of Rachel's shoes exhibit the classic school girl shoe style of mary janes (a strap over the top of the foot)

Bows- Rachel Berry loves her girly touches, especially bows and cutesy animals

Brittany: "What is this look called?"

Rachel: "Sexy schoolgirl, librarian chic."

I was browsing some of the blogs I follow, and I came across a post from koi story that showed some everyday Rachel Berry style. Check it out here!

(PS: Sorry for the lack of text, I wanted to talk about each outfit, but I am so frustrated with the formatting of this post! Polyvore HTML just wasn't working for me. Let me know if you would prefer if there were more explanation! Or if you like it just the way it is, less talk and more pictures.) 

What do you think? What character do you want to see next?

Sing Sweetly Party Dress

On this week's episode of Glee (one of my must watch shows), Quinn Fabray was wearing the same dress I wore in my post The Only Girl in the World. I guess I'm not the only girl in the world that has this dress!

It's called the "Sing Sweetly Party Dress" from anthropologie. 

I've been thinking of doing a series of posts that are affordable outfits inspired by Glee character's wardrobes. What do you think?
