[Fashion] Marissa Cooper

While watching The OC, I was compelled by the characters, music, real life element and especially the fashion of the show. Personally I'm really into 90's style fashion, the simplicity yet the unusual styles and prints are really fashionable. Marissa Cooper would have to be on the top of my list of tv show characters that I envy their wardrobe. Let's face it Mischa Barton who plays Marissa can pull off anything and look absolutely stunning. Marissa's personal style mixes designer pieces and often a touch of vintage glamour.
Wearing simple polo shirts and vintage skirts, she really represents upper class Orange County fashion. Marissa will be seen wearing cami's, retro vests, subtle heels and fitted vintage pants. She doesn't really have a main piece of clothing, instead her wardrobe includes almost everything!
Marissa mixes unusual patterns with key wardrobe piece's to create a vintage feel. When going to formal events you will spot her in a knee length dress with fine detailing. Often the fan of halter tops and thin straps. One thing that I've noticed is that she rarely wears boots or heels, often the fan of the comfortable ballet flats.
Most of the pieces in Marissa's wardrobe have a feminine vibe, all garments are made out of expensive fabric and wear a well known label. Looking through all her outfits in envy I cannot spot one thing I would change. Marissa is flawless and her wardrobe is the envy of many an exact reflection of the character.

The Vampire Diaries - Tyler and Caroline

So I recently started watching Vampire Diaries and I was surprised by how brilliant, witty and entertaining it turned out to be! I know Elena and Stefan are suppose to be the main couple which make you envy their romance. But personally I find Stefan extremely annoying he's all I only drink puppy blood and skip around in the sunshine with my abnormally huge forehead. Damen on the other hand I believe would be a much better match for Elena. But all in all Tyler and Caroline are by far my favourite couple in the show.
I love how their relationship really blossomed from friends who were their for each other always to a passionate romance. It's simply adorable how Caroline helped Tyler come to terms with what he was becoming. Even when he said for her to go because it wasn't safe she refused because she wasn't going to let him fight this battle alone. A werewolf's bite is fatal to a vampire and yet she risked everything to make sure he was okay. Let's face the facts Caroline and Matt were the worst couple, he didn't accept her for who she was. As Caroline and Tyler really understand each other and accept each other with all their flaws.
Caroline would have to be one of my favourite in the show, her personality is just so unique and raw. She's always true to herself and doesn't hide the fact she's not perfect, she knows she isn't but yet she still be's the best person she can be. I love the quote from a conversation Caroline has with Stefan about her change into a vampire. Stefan: "When someone becomes a vampire all their natural behaviours get sort of amplified." Caroline: "So your saying that now I'm basically an insecure, neurotic, control freak on crack."
On the other hand to be honest I didn't really like Tyler in season 1. I grew to love him when you saw the whole other side to his personality. The one that's actually scared, unsure, protective and loyal. I love how he's always got Caroline's back and he let her go because he knew it was for the best. "I think I'm falling for her", he let her go because he loved her. You have no idea how much I was violently fist pumping when they kissed at Elena's birthday party. I love Caroline and Tyler together they are so adorable and not to mention Tyler is extremely hot!
