Crushin On: Funny Girl Aubrey Plaza

I first got hip to Aubrey Plaza in season 1 of Portlandia, where she played a house sitter and a student in a couple of skits. Her big brown eyes, dry humor won me over! If there is anything I love more in a girl, it's when they're beautiful, smart, witty, and hilarious. Not to mention the girl has style! Below are some of my favorite Aubrey Plaza outfits and looks.

Style Icon: Funny Girl, Barbara Streisand

I've always loved Barbara's movies. From Funny Girl, to A Star is Born, among her other classics. I feel like she has a say in the clothing she wears in her films and public appearances. I'm sure she has a team of stylists and professionals, but Barbara definitely has her own style. I became even more intrigued with Barbara after reading her home tour interview in Harpers' Bazaar. Amazing! She's a true fashion historian! She has themed rooms of her antique clothing and gems. And she's the kind of woman who wore a Victorian era dress in the 1970's. Below are some of my favorite looks of Barb, both off screen and on screen.
