Style Crush: Secret Diary of a Call Girl

Hmmm, it's not often that I take inspiration from what is essentially a prostitute... but the styling on ITV's Secret Diary of a Call Girl is turning Billie Piper into Britain's style version of Carrie Bradshaw. 

I love the chic, retro feel about Belle's outfits and how it contradicts the judgment that comes with being an 'escort' by emulating absolute class and sophistication with a fun and quirky edge.

Palazzo jumpsuit, fur cape, hair bow - busy but beautiful


Mad Men-esque
I love how she is wearing the red Mulberry bayswater with all these outfits .... realistically not all of us can afford multiple designer bags so despite her ... aherm ... 'different' career choice, Billie Pipers character is still representative of the 'real woman' in the fashion stakes ... kinda.  

And all this is before even considering some of the amazing underwear she prances about in.  Even if some of the sex scenes from Secret Diary of a Call Girl make me cringe/gag, i'll still be watching just to see what she's wearing (or not depending what part of the programme i'm tuned into!).

Do rate Belle's style?
