Icon - Peaches Geldof

So this lady was on my list of style icons and due to tragic recent events it only seems right to move her to this week. Who am I talking about? The crazy, wonderful, and vivacious Peaches Geldof, who tragically died in the early hours of 7th April 2014. 


Now this lady had a crazy childhood, and was struck by the loss of her mother at a young age. She blamed not being able to get over her mothers overdose on her own partying ways all the way through her teenage years. She was the kooky, indie party girl on the British scene, and yes when I was younger I did find her constant search for attention to be annoying, but as she entered her twenties she mellowed out and she thanked her husband and her two children for finally finding herself. Always opinionated she spoke passionately about her two boys and they was she had chosen to raise them. There can be no doubt in anybodies mind that this lady adored her children, they could not have been more loved. In her children she found a purpose, it is a real tragedy that she was not able to continue growing with her children.


Her unique style of rock and roll vintage, indie chic and sixties flair changed as she matured into vintage glamour. She really did come into her own in her Twenties it is a tragedy that she died at the age of 25, I think this lady would have continued to go far in the fashion stakes. Have a look at some of her amazing looks here . . .

 

I love the mix of pieces and styles that she wore and that she matched together to create her own very personal look. She really was something and it is a great shame that she was taken so young. Thoughts are with her family and friends, especially her two children, who will sadly grow up without their devoted mother. To this fashion icon!

What did you think of Peaches Geldolf and her style?
