Obsession for following celebrity styles hit new levels earlier today when I was browsing for a new pair of shoes on asos.com.....I came across an amazing pair (they are actually stunning!) and just carried on browsing through the site when I noticed, the captions describing the style of the clothes.
Things like "Satin Bow Shift Dress in the style of Victoria Beckham" or "Black Skinny jean in the style of Ashley Olsen" are written below, then when looked at closer the site produces three close up pictures and a picture of the celebrity wearing the original. Here's an example: "Sexy black slingbacks in the style of Christina Aguilera and Nelly Furtado"
Personally, I think it's a bit strange that people are buying clothes that are specifically designed after a celebrity has worn them. Obviously fashion is all about developing your own style from seeing others and we constantly, subconsciously copy styles from catwalks, magazines, freinds,the high street, but this just seems a bit too wierd.
It could be me just being over the top, but I do think this is a little bit odd.....but of course there are people who just simply like their style.

I get the image that people will buy this dress with the hope that if they wear this they'll look like Mischa Barton does in it originally
which is not only very sad, but also quiet impossible.
It gives the impression that girls will look as their idols did in them originally.
