KATY PERRY'S INSPIRATION

Posted Aug 19 2009 @ 06:06 PM

Hot mama Gwen Stefani was photographed lunching at BOA Steakhouse in Los Angeles with a group of friends earlier today, August 19, looking svelte and stylish as always. For her lunchtime look, Gwen paired a shredded white t-shirt (looks like Raquel Allegra to me - also check out Splendid's Oversize Tee in White, or for a black option, their ultra soft Feather Tencel Pocket Tee in Black) over a bright blue bra, that she then belted (like Jack Rabbit Collection's Bullet Belt in Black) and paired with cropped trousers (take a look at Rebecca Taylor's Capri Pant in Black) and snakeskin Louboutin heels. Stefani completed her ensemble with a powerful pair of black sunglasses, a blue satchel (try Antoinette Lee Designs' Stella Tote in Royal), and a few heavy metal gold bangles (similar to CC Skye's 8 Stud Cuff in Gold). Weigh in on Gwen's look here, readers - do you think she's lookin' hot? In my eyes, it's really hard for Gwen to go wrong. In music related news, it seems that Katy Perry is really aspiring to follow in Gwen's footsteps when it comes to her music career. She took to her Twitter and said, "When I grow up, I wanna be just like Gwen Stefani. It’s not a race, it’s a marathon. I keep telling myself this. Think of the big picture. I think music is weird these days, people don’t — well the music industry doesn’t let u grow anymore. Everything has to be now, so immediate. Like watching Gwen tonight that was a 15 year in the making [sic]. I can’t wait to make magic like that in 15 yrs, I just don’t know if people will wait for people to grow like they used too." What are your thoughts - do you think Katy has the potential to be as successful as Gwen one day?
