Style File: Cassie

Hey, hey!
So for this week's Style File, I decided to profile an unsusual suspect...

Cassie!
While her talent is somewhat debatable, I believe her style is consistantly impeccable. Let's take a look:
For the red carpet, she wears anything from floor length black gowns...

...to more age appropriate low rise jeans accented with a cute shoulder baring tops.
...topped off with cute peep toes or Mary Janes.
For a night on the town, the shorter the better. She makes her mark in thigh skimming frocks...

With even the occasional shirt dress thrown in...

...for good measure.
When she's super casual, she loves a soft striped sweater...

...paired with high waisted jeans or tights.
In the fall, you won't catch her without some sort of cute cropped jacket or coat...

Skinny jeans...
...and you can't forget the boots...
...even while watching basketball.
C'mon, cute!

I like Cassie's style. It's laid-back and chic. I haven't heard any of her other songs besides "Me and You," but I thought it was good!

So...remember the mailbombs post you did last week, Claire? When someone asked about Ashanti's shoes? They are dolce & gabbana, I found them perusing eluxury on my lunch break...

My friends make fun of me because "Long Way 2 Go" is one of my favorite songs . . . and also my general ringtone, lol. I LOVE that song, though. I don't think she's worse than any other manufactured wannabe r&b/pop singer out there. Plus she always looks like she belongs on someone's runway.
