Hello! And welcome back to my Fashion Inspo post series! 

I am excited for today's post! Anna Wintour! A fashion icon that has garnered the respect and awe of Hollywood's most elite! And a glamorous mystery to me. Its' true. I think I know exactly three things about Anna Wintour:

1. She is the Editor-in-Chief for Vogue Magazine.
2. She is the host/chairwoman of the Met Gala (which I will be doing a post on soon!)
3. Oversized sunglasses are part of her signature style!

And that's it! That's all I know about her! But researching this post was eye opening. She is a powerhouse!

Anna was born in Hampstead, London in 1949 and also into a journalism household. Her father was the editor of the London newspaper and began to "consult her" on how to make the newspaper more relevant to the younger generation of the time. Anna took that knowledge and began her career in journalism with two British magazines. She was the editor of the British Vogue magazine for two years before she took control of the franchise's New York magazine and revived it. 

With Anna at the helm, the magazine began to shape the fashion industry and has become one of the most prominent and highly regarded people in "fashion, trend setting, and anointing new designers." Her influence in the industry is powerful!

As for her personal style? Like all of us it has evolved over the years. But it seems, from what I found, that with Anna, she finds something that she likes and that works for her and sticks with it for a while. For example, in her early years she tended to mix fashion tee shirts with designer jeans and vests. 

Later, when she began working at Vogue, she adopted Chanel suits and miniskirts. Apparently, she even wore them during her pregnancies (she had 2!) She would unzip the skirt a bit in the back and wear the jacket to cover it up!

Those oversized sunglasses I mentioned earlier? Apparently, they are corrective lenses as her eyesight is starting to deteriorate. She mentioned once in an interview that they have really become her "armor" as they help keep her reactions to a show private.
I hope you enjoyed reading about Anna Wintour as much as I enjoyed researching and writing about her! She is fascinating to me, and this is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to her. 

I have the urge to head on over to Amazon and order books on her just to learn more about her! 

Stay tuned, I will be covering the Met Gala in a post coming up! 

Thanks for reading and have a great day! See you on Friday! =D
