Diane Kruger in Glamour March 2011

It is no secret that Diane Kruger is one of my all-time favorite actresses…not because of her acting (even though she is admittedly pretty good), but mainly because of her chic yet effortless-seeming style. This month, Diane is a cover girl for Glamour’s March 2011 issue, and below are some excerpts from her interview with the mag. Girl-crush warning in full effect!

Glamour: .(..) you are super sophisticated. Let’s talk about style and fashion. Today I have to say you…

Diane Kruger: I dressed down?

Glamour: Cardigan, button-down shirt, ballet flats.

Diane Kruger: What can I say? I don’t know about style. I know about my personal style.

Glamour:But you’ve had exposure to a certain level of design. It’s one thing to do a runway show. But Karl Lagerfeld and Francisco Costa are your friends.

Diane Kruger: I truly, genuinely like clothes. Making them is an art form, and wearing them is a form of self-expression. I find it very emotional because I can remember moments in my life—my mood, how I felt—through these clothes.

Glamour: But it is fun to splurge sometimes.

Diane Kruger: I couldn’t agree more! The biggest fashion purchase I ever made I thought about for six years. I’m not kidding. All my life I wanted to own an Hermès Constance bag, and when I signed with Calvin Klein, I decided this was the time that I could afford it. I truly broke a sweat when I paid for it.

More after the jump!

Black and Brown

I’ve been in love with brown dress shoes for men lately. I think they are a classic enough alternative to black shoes, and would go amazingly with grey and blue suits! But black? It’s one of those fashion rules, not to pair black accessories with brown clothes, and vice versa. Is that still true today? I think I don’t actually hate a black suit paired with a pair of dark brown oxfords (Hugh Dancy certainly pulls it off, minus the vest). What do you think?
