My Year In Style Crushes (PHOTOS)

Everyone has at least one style crush, but I've got more than I can count on my fingers and toes. This is my ever-evolving list of women I admire from afar for their amazing taste in clothing, their business savvy and overall attitude in life.

From editors to performers, bloggers to stylists (there's even a Kardashian in there!) - I believe each of the women in the slideshow below is a fashion fixture for many different reasons.

Peruse the gallery below and tell me, who is your style crush?

Confession: I'm a closet Kardashian fanatic. Besides the obvious obsession with America's most popular family, I'm always looking to older sister Kourtney for style inspiration. While I don't have the budget for a Birkin or Louboutins, I can mix menswear-inspired looks with feminine accessories - something Kourtney has taught me. I also love that she isn't afraid to wear flats, while everyone else around her teeters in sky-high stilettos.
