15 Reasons Why Denise Huxtable Is A Fashion Icon

There are only certain people who can work a certain sense of style. Not everyone can rock a bald head, neon lipstick, a certain hairdo, hat, shirt, etc; the list goes on. It may look amazing on one person, and on another, you wonder if they looked in the mirror before leaving the house. Denise Huxtable, however, has proven that no matter how outrageous her outfit or hairstyle may be, she still looks good. How that’s possible, I’m not sure, but it is. For those who don’t know, Denise Huxtable is the second eldest of the five Huxtable kids in “The Cosby Show.” Below are a few looks of hers that I absolutely love but also shows why she deserves to be called a fashion icon.

1. Hairstyles

Whether long, curly short or even dreads, she can pull off any hairstyle and still look good.

2. Head wraps

I wish I had as many cool head wraps as her.

3. And a turban

Love it.

4. Interesting sweaters

Like her father, Denise had many…interesting looking sweaters but you didn’t question them because, of course, she could pull it off.

5. Hats

Honestly, who else could wear these hats in public and not get the side eye?

6. Makeup

Let me just say when she when she did her makeup in this picture, it wasn’t Halloween. #YouWishYouCould.

7. Huge blazers

I don’t exactly understand the over-sized blazer but I won’t question it.

8. Patterns on patterns

Who doesn't love having patterns in their life?

9. The preppy chic look

I love these looks.

10. The tulle look

source pinterest.com

That one time she wore mostly all tulle fabric.

11. Michael Jackson looking jackets:

Because the only other person besides MJ that can wear these cool jackets is Denise.

12. Layers

These outfits look so peculiar, but when they’re on Denise…

13. Brooches

With Denise, the bigger the brooch, the better.

14. Earrings

The pin earrings are outrageously perfect.

15. High-waisted pants

The way she’s working those pants though.

Even it's not official, Denise will always be a fashion icon to me.

Have a fantastical week everyone xo.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
