Style: Icon

In my day-to-day life, I rarely meet anyone even semi-famous (apart from a TV news reporter here and there). And even in their presence, I'm a tad bit starstruck. Never in a million years did I think I would get to be in the presence of one of my fashion + style icons.

Well, last Thursday was no normal Thursday, folks.

As you can probably have guessed, Lily Aldridge has been a favorite of mine for a while now. From her beyond gorgeous hair, effortless personal style and fresh outlook on life, she's quickly become one of my icons (see some of my favorite looks below).

Well, luck would have it that she was making a pitstop at Rosedale Mall for a little meet and greet at Victoria's Secret...not going was not an option.

In person, Lily was every bit as stylish as I thought she would be. But the best part? She was real. Super talkative, engaging and girly, just like everyone else (she even snuck a few peeks at photos being taken onsite to make sure she looked ok [admit it, you've done that too]). Not to mention, she danced all afternoon to the music from the DJ (when no one else was dancing). A class act with a killer sense of style? The girls a keeper in my book.

While it's totally cheesy, we had to sneak a pick while we were there (Jack just had to get one too!)

So tell me, loves, which of your style icons would you love to meet?
