"Oh, what were you expecting? Me to pull some grubby Ke$ha lip-tatt nonsense? Nice try, chumps. Did you forget that I am Lana Del Ray, retro-lady-vixen extraordinaire?"

Well, I want to be singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey without all the weird career controversy and name changing (real name: Elizabeth Woolridge Grant) and dating Axl Rose. Really I just want all of Lana's ladylike-perfect clothes. I have rarely, in recent memory, seen a woman who looks so lovely, so often; who pulls off red carpet looks, on-stage looks, and street looks, who just knows who she is style-wise and nails it each and every time. These are my favorite Lana looks from the past few months.
