Five things I know about fashion: Leigh Lezark
1 Know what suits you. I would never wear brown, because it just doesn't work with my pale skin and dark hair. Also I wouldn't wear flats at night, because I love heels.
2 Shop around. I don't like the idea of "trends" at all. If you follow trends then everybody looks the same. The best shopping experiences are in local markets, especially in foreign cities.
3 Your look shouldn't be contrived. I love the style of French new-wavey type people, like Chantal Goya. It's effortless and doesn't come across as if it's had too much thought put into it.
4 Heels are a must. The higher the better. And when in doubt, go with black. Black is an easy go-to, especially if it's a Chanel little black dress. They always make me feel amazing and they look very chic.
5 Be comfortable in your own skin. I feel comfortable naked. Having said that I wouldn't pose nude for a photoshoot and I wouldn't walk around naked at home – I have a room-mate and I am not sure they would appreciate it.
