INSPIRATION || Adventure move leading lady style

I've been toying with this idea for a while now, and have been gathering pictures. I like Marion Ravenwood (Karen Allen) best of all the adventure film leading ladies - Betty Ross (Liv Tyler), Sophie Neveu (Audrey Tautou), Abigail Chase (Diane Kruger), though I like the wardrobe of Diane Kruger in National Treasure better.

There are probably other famous adventure movie leading ladies, but (1) these are the ladies who came to mind first - I don't watch a lot of adventure films and (2) I prefer the ones who are also brainy - see Betty Ross. :) And no Bond girls for me... unless she's Michelle Yeoh.


Pictures from Google


And as you can see, my first time trying my hand at Polyvore!
It's so fun, but I can't decide which shoes - cool riding boots? kickass motorcycle boots? or cool and casual sneakers?

INSPIRATION || Leading lady style

Recently I've become quite obsessed with the style of leading ladies in adventure movies. It all started with a trip to the National Geographic store where CJ got me this gorgeous jacket. (Don't have a photo yet, and it's not on the site) It's dark blue, and it looks kind of rugged, yet well tailored and intellectual.

I suppose that's where it started... it looked intellectual. Just like what Betty Ross from 'The Hulk' (Liv Tyler's character) might wear to campus. Then I thought of Indiana Jones and now I'm building this inspiration board for intellectual leading lady style. :)

It's a work in progress, I've not done many inspiration boards, but I think this will be fun.

And I have to work on my leading lady style outfit!
