FATED TO BE LOVED: ADRI LAW

There's always that one girl who's older than you, prettier than you, savvier and wittier and more worldly than you. The girl is an amazon- she knows what she's doing. She's a presence and a force. She's the ruler by which you measure yourself, the standard for your idea of perfection. You have yours and I have mine. Meet Adri Law.

Adri Law is a 20 year old photographer, designer, rebel spirit, and style icon from Los Angeles. She's presently the poster child for 'cyber-goth resurrected', and yes, has inspired 99% of my goth, witch, and grunge outfits.






Best of all, she's the fully grown manifestation of Miranda Sanchez from everybody's favorite childhood TV show, Lizzie McGuire. (Don't even TRY to deny it... they're pretty much wearing the same t-shirt for Christ's sake.)


When I first met Adri in real life, she was wearing all black and picked out a Hebrew letter sweater-clip from a rack at Savers. Despite it being the greatest secondhand accessory I had ever seen at a thrift store, she gave it to me. Since then I've made it my priority to pay homage to Adri's 'personal brand' every time I put it on.

MY ADRI LOOK:





FROM TOP TO BOTTOM:
Sunglasses- 80s Purple (www.80spurple.com)
Sweater- Vintage
Shirt- Secondhand
Clip- Secondhand
Brooch- Sahara Hotel gift shop
Skirt- Vintage
Socks- Forever 21
Creepers- Classified


Adri is fated to be loved because her art isn't limited to her creation; she lets it overlap into the realm of her lifestyle. She's consistent about her fashion sense and, like me, never leaves the house without executing a theme. Style isn't limited to what you wear- it's what you relay through your tastes, visions, and actions that makes you original. And the essence that Adri has emitted is nothing short of iconic.

  3. Really? I thought her style was ok kinda average. Nothing I have not seen. Looks okay. Face okay too, not tooo pretty like you made it seem. Maybe she looks more attractive in person. I don't know. I think you are more prettier and stylish. No need to envy someone else when you got it all the way! : )

  6. Your hair reminds me of Zenon Girl of the 21st Century, probably the best disney channel movie ever.

  13. Just so you know... the Hebrew letter on the chain is a Chai. It means life! It also stands for the number 17 (or 18; I'm not sure which). You pull it off very nicely.
