Dare to be Different

From Lady Gaga to Taylor Momsen, Katy Perry to Bjork, Madonna to Courtney Love... who is taking their trend setting to extremes? And is it helping their or career or damaging it...?

Obviously the first celebrity that comes to mind with regards to wacky fashion is Lady Gaga. Although she is undoubtedly the most famous artist in the world right now she is bound by her style and essentially "forced" to dress up all the time - her identity as an artist is dictated by her outward appearance. We can't deny that we love her creative and outlandish style but I just wonder how much longer the star can keep it up for

Taylor Momsen has literally grown up in front of our eyes, from little Jenny Humphrey in Gossip girl to teen aged rock star in The Pretty Reckless. She has a sensational voice for a girl her age but are her clothing choices age-appropriate? Many of her younger fans barely recognised the actress turned singer when she made her first appearance as the lead singer of her rock band. She seemed to go from wholesome tween sensation to hard core rock chick in a matter of months...

Katy Perry seems to be getting the "different" style right with her quirky looks and hair. She is by no means defined by her style yet we love watching out for what she does next


she is somewhere between pin up girl and cartoon character and we love it!


And she has great red carpet style too...


Will you dare to be different? ;)
