Blake Lively not only plays a main part in one this season’s top TV shows but is also proving herself to be a little bit of a style icon.

The actress may work the pretty, preppy; girl next-door look on screen but off screen is another story!  The A-lister’s style has gone supersonic this summer, she has been seen wearing the likes of prestigious designers such as Chanel, Marchesa, Ralph Lauren, Stella McCartney, Matthew Williamson and Juicy Couture, and these are just a few of the designers flooding Blake’s much desired wardrobe.

Lively was seen chatting to US Vogue’s Anna Winter at the Paris Couture Shows, Wintour has in fact stated she is one of Lively’s biggest fans and to prove this Blake is to appear on the cover of Vogue for the second time in six months!

Despite having one of the most enviable wardrobes to date, the actress’s real passion is shoes.  It has been reported that Lively has in fact purchased over three hundred pairs in the past two years alone, dedicating an entire closet to her much beloved footwear!

Her love for clothes and shoes began at a very young age, her mother who was a former model would tailor adult clothes to fit Blake as she didn’t want her to be seen in anything similar to the other children but instead as an individual.  It’s however Blake’s naturalness and ease that really gets our attention, she doesn’t seem too perfect nor too sultry and this is exactly why she is quickly becoming recognised as a major fashion icon.
