Scream Queens

As a big fan of Emma Roberts (role-model!) I've been wanting to see the new series 'Scream Queens' ever since its release was announced. Unfortunately, lack of time didn't allow me to watch from the pilot release on, but I'm proud to say I just finished catching up with the first seven episodes, inbetween all things going in life right now. And I must admit, it was just as I had anticipated - I'm hooked my dear readers, on this amazing series that sets the perfect mix between horror, comedy and chick flick.

For those that missed out on Scream Queens, here's a short summary: Wallace University is rocked by a string of murders. Kappa House, the most sought-after sorority for pledges, is ruled with an iron fist (in a pink glove) by its Queen Bitch, Chanel Oberlin (Emma Roberts). But when anti-Kappa Dean Cathy Munsch (Jamie Lee Curtis) decrees that sorority pledging must be open to all students, and not just the school's silver-spooned elite, all hell is about to break loose, as a devil-clad killer begins wreaking havoc, claiming one victim, one episode at a time. Part black comedy, part slasher flick, SCREAM QUEENS is a modern take on the classic whodunit, in which every character has a motive for murder... Or could easily be the next blood-soaked casualty.

Doesn't that sound promising? And there's more: the fashion in this series is INCREDIBLE. I've been at awe of every single look Chanel and her minions wore so far, and make me want to stock up on pastel faux fur so badly I need to hide my credit card somewhere I can't find it. And what's the best part of this series is that as the costume design team isn't on a big budget, so most of the clothes are quite affordable (quite a lot of Topshop, ASOS and Zara going on there), and many of them custom-made. I found out about this amazing Tumblr where you can find a lot of looks from Scream Queens and where to find them - such a great initiative, make sure to take a look!

Have you guys watched Scream Queens yet? What did you think? Who's your style icon in this series - will it be polished Chanel, sassy Zayday or preppy Grace? I'm definitely voting for Chanel and her impeccable walk-in closet!
