Inspiration: Alfie

alfie.jpg

I watched the remake of Alfie several years back, but I couldn’t tell you one thing that happened in the movie, except that Sienna Miller looked positively stunning in every single scene.  She exuded a laid-back sense of glamor with kohl-rimmed eyes, pale pink lips and a seriously hip wardrobe.   I’ve repeatedly referenced the same pictures for inspiration and have added a few pieces that achieve that same unforced, sultry vibe.

Kohl liner – $34
Studded pouch bag – $80
Skinny jeans – $190
Metal cuff – $8.80

High waisted hotpants – $65
Lace tank – $84
Studded booties – $160
Twig hoop earrings – $200
Thigh boots – $250
Mitzi lipstick – $24
Boy short – $32
Crew neck t-shirt – $92

I actually watched this for the first time recently! I totally agree about her style. I was drooling.

2 Lainey { 11.10.09 at 1:32 am }

That is exactly how I felt about the movie as well. Couldn’t peel my eyes away from Sienna Miller. I think that was actually when I first fell in love with her and her style. Love this inspiration post so much. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

Um. Why do I suddenly find myself really itching to cut a nice curtain of thick bangs? ♥

4 ondressingup { 11.10.09 at 1:44 am }

Everything you picked out was gorgeous. Nothing will beat the original Alfie though but for style tips, definitely remade Alfie is the one to look to.

5 EMILIE { 11.10.09 at 2:07 am }

Love evrything you picked Emily!
I love Sienna Miller in this movie, she’s stunning!

The studded cuff is my favourite piece and – how convenient! – it’s also the cheapest. YAY.

7 laura trevey { 11.10.09 at 4:08 am }

I want some black sunglasses like that :)

8 Rosa { 11.10.09 at 4:39 am }

Your post is really making drool over those studded booties!

9 Marcela { 11.10.09 at 5:01 am }

I love this movie!

I looooove her hair! I wish my hair would do that…

11 Closet Cravings { 11.10.09 at 5:42 am }

Love Sienna’s style. Her skin and hair are so beautiful too. She is one of my fave celebs to figure out what she is wearing (I have some of her looks on my site.) =)

12 Melanie DeCarli { 11.10.09 at 5:45 am }

Thanks for posting..I am channeling my inner Alfie today and am picking out a fab outfit!

13 Ilanka { 11.10.09 at 6:24 am }

Gorgeous picks! I love the studded boots.

14 Kelly @ Dare to be Domestic { 11.10.09 at 6:25 am }

your boot and shoe selections always make me swoon, I love all of these pieces.

15 Dina's Days { 11.10.09 at 6:31 am }

Her eye makeup is perfect.

16 Christina { 11.10.09 at 6:43 am }

Her looks in that movie are perfect for the biker chic mixed with fem pieces trend right now.

17 Sally { 11.10.09 at 7:08 am }

I haven’t seen the film … but I’m mighty tempted to now. I love the edgy version of Sienna.

18 Lauren S { 11.10.09 at 7:15 am }

I just watched this movie a couple weeks ago and I LOVED it, mostly because of Sienna Miller’s part. She is one of my favorite actresses and she was so cute and sexy in this movie! And of course, I loved her clothes!

19 Chaucee { 11.10.09 at 7:29 am }

I can definitely see where you’d be inspired by her character – you kind of dress like her.

20 Tiers of Joy { 11.10.09 at 7:31 am }

Alfie was a terrible movie (in my humble opinion), and Sienna Miller will certainly never be nominated for an Academy Award (I hope), buuut, the girl DOES have style, and whoever styled her for that film did a fabulous job … Love your picks (as usual)!

21 amy { 11.10.09 at 7:56 am }

sienna miller pulls off the whole 60′s thing flawlessly.

22 dreamsequins { 11.10.09 at 8:06 am }

Man– the original movie was twisted and tragic! I saw the remake with Sienna, too, and didn’t think too much of it– but you’re right, she is a pretty girl alright. BTW, I keep seeing her everywhere in movies now.

26 CL { 11.10.09 at 8:40 am }

Love the items you picked — even for a movie that is that old, everything seems to be on-trend.
Sidenote, Alfie is in my top 5 favorite movies ever. It’s a total winner!

Want everything! That movie made me fall in love with Sienna, so gorgeous!

29 Her name was Lola { 11.10.09 at 8:56 am }

She was perfection in this film, wasn’t she? Great finds to emulate Sienna’s onscreen style.

Cheers.

30 Karen { 11.10.09 at 8:58 am }

Agreed. It’s one of my fave films for style inspiration.

She (or rather the wardrobe stylist – God I wonder who it was? I’m sure there’s a way to look it up via the film credits) rocked it like no one’s business.

31 Melissa { 11.10.09 at 9:08 am }

I’ve been obsessed with ’60s style since I started watching Mad Men! Classic pieces!

32 katy { 11.10.09 at 9:12 am }

She’s fantastic. She looked great in that Andy Warhol movie too, except it was so terrible I had to turn it off. I should put this on my Netflix queue to re-watch!

33 cupcake.trash { 11.10.09 at 9:23 am }

35 mart and lu { 11.10.09 at 9:35 am }

i do the same with movies when fashion overrides the script how often does that happen? i love sienna miller’s sense of style so organic!

36 emma { 11.10.09 at 9:48 am }

47 Taylor B. { 11.10.09 at 11:44 am }

Wow! Fierce. Love it and wish I could get away with wearing something like that.

48 Chloe { 11.10.09 at 12:02 pm }

I loved Sienna Miller in this film. She looked so glamourous, but in a really effortless way.

49 I Get a Fever { 11.10.09 at 12:17 pm }

Love those studded boots and the lace tank – you have a great eye. Not much into Sienna Miller but I totally agree about the fashion in the movie!

50 Keep Calm & Carry On { 11.10.09 at 12:19 pm }

Hmm, which is more lustworthy in Alfie: Sienna’s wardrobe or Jude Law? Total toss-up :)

51 Le 21ème { 11.10.09 at 12:48 pm }

Sienna Miller is definately an icon when it comes to style. She was so unbelievable in Alfie. Although she played a crazy, she was still so endearing! I love her!

52 The Budget Babe { 11.10.09 at 1:08 pm }

you’ve made me realize the one thing i envy most about actors: the great costumes they get to wear on stage!

53 Decadent Luxe { 11.10.09 at 1:08 pm }

Love Sienna’s hair + makeup in the center photo. As well as the bag and lace tank.

54 Rachel (heart of light) { 11.10.09 at 1:25 pm }

You definitely captured her with these pieces!

55 KPeach { 11.10.09 at 1:36 pm }

I honestly could not even handle how beautiful she looked in that movie.
I actually got bangs not long after I saw it:) xo

56 Girl in the loft { 11.10.09 at 1:39 pm }

Ooh I love this post. That movie was sort of terrible, but Sienna looked effortlessly chic. TBH she always looks good.

63 Marie { 11.10.09 at 5:42 pm }

I completely know what you’re talking about. I too was mesmerized by Sienna…her eyes, her hair, her style. She just looked stunning… I’m obsessed with black liner, so obviously I was loving it!

64 Marley { 11.10.09 at 6:41 pm }

God, I loved this movie if only alone for how stunning Sienna was, her style, her whole essence was breathtaking! Very Bridget Bardot :)

65 blair { 11.10.09 at 7:26 pm }

I agree that the fashion on Sienna was the most memorable part! What a fantastic inspired collection you put together!

She was absolutely stunning in this movie, for sure.
