Fashion Photo of the Day 5/22/2014: Diane Kruger
by Rachel Stone
- May 22, 2014
y love for Diane Kruger knows no boundaries. She never fails to wow me at an event and never gets stuck in just one 'look.' She easily switches from cool and sophisticated, to chic and sleek, to feminine and classic. But the one thing that remains constant is that the former model does it all without a stylist. It's pretty incredible! She not only knows when to take a fashion risk but she knows what looks best on her and to trust her own instincts. These are skills one can definitely learn but I have never seen someone nail it so well and so consistently as Kruger.
