I ♥ Your Signature Style: Anne Slater

If you know anything about me, you know that I love a woman with a signature. While I haven't found my own yet, it is certainly my ambition to some day find that one thing I love enough to wear continuously for the rest of my life. It is for that reason that I have always been fascinated by Anne Slater. As for back as 1961 (as the one black and white photo below illustrates) and perhaps even longer, she has been wearing blue-lensed cat eye glasses. No matter day or night, indoors or out, she wears those same glasses. She is clearly a creature of habit, as her clothing sticks to a similar uniform-like silhouette of an oversized tailored jacket worn over an appropriate length of skirt and simple black pumps. But it is her glasses that separate her from other tasteful women of her generation and define her as the style icon she has become.

This is a recent collage I made of Anne and pinned up on my inspiration board. Maybe if I stare at it long enough my own signature will eventually become apparent to me.
