I don’t understand the fascination with Amal. I don’t think her outfits ever look that good, she is skinny and wears a lot of expensive stuff and that seems to be about it.
+1000. Yay, you have more money than G$D and can buy tons of expensive clothes, have them tailored etc. It would be interesting if she shopped Target/ Old Navy. Rich people dressing well is nothing new or important. Now, where’s my US Weekly…
I love her style and use of bold colors, but agree that it’s hardly surprising that a rich, thin woman with a stylist looks great.
Personally, I must concur. She is really no real beauty (tho she is an attorney at law, and perhaps very pretty for an attorney at law), and if she had NOT married George Clooney, I really do not think anyone in the media would ever have noticed her. Am I off base here? Rosa agrees.
Huh. Given that there are people wealthier than Amal who have nearly zero sense of style, I’d say she is quite stylish and her money shouldn’t really be a factor in determining whether she’s fashionable or not.
Thanks for mentioning the JobMob Pinterest boards list ?
Didn’t know they were a thing but I’m glad to live in a world where high-heeled Crocs exist. I could definitely see my wife wearing a pair around the beach. Not surprised they’re popular at all
