    If there is one person whose closet (let's be honest, whose whole life) I'd like to raid, it would be Natasha Khan. Singer, songwriter, multi- instrumentalist, visual artist, and now my personal fashion muse, is there anything this British beauty can't do?

She is a master storyteller, taking us on trips through animal kingdoms and magical dream sequences. Her covetable style incorporates the whimsy of her music with a 70s flair, lots of layering, and is always topped off with a retro style headband. Check out my slideshow of some of Natasha's favorite designers mixed in with my faves she'd look great in, then watch her amazing video.

    Sounds like: Joanna Newsom, Tori Amos, Kate Bush, Bjork
    Top Songs to Download: "Priscilla", "What's a Girl To Do", and "Horse and I"

Nicolas Ghesquière has certainly taken notice of her muse-worthy status which has has attempted to capture in his ad campaigns. With her famous dark eyebrows, pale complexion, and model-esque physique, how could she not inspire?

    After witnessing major political unrest when visiting Sri Lanka, M.I.A.'s mother locked her in a room for a week. Literally. She said, "the only things in the room were a shelf with every Hindu god you could think of -- all 184 of them -- a locked cabinet and a sewing machine. By day three, I started taking down the curtains and making outfits. There was nothing else to do!" And that is how a style star is born.
