Don't judge me, I'm sucker for love stories! There has been SO much press, both positive and negative, around the Fifty Shades of Grey book series but "Honey Badger Don't Care!"

I have read and enjoyed the first and second book thus far, and can't wait to finish the rest of the trilogy. I even convinced some of my "mom friends" and fans to pick up these masterpieces because they are easy to read, engaging, and filled with twists and turns.

Plus - shoot! Who doesn't want some fantasy in their life? If you love movies like Pretty Woman and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, then this book is something you will enjoy. Get ready for steamy scenes with my new favorite rich handsome hero, Christian Grey.

But what fantasy is complete without some great costumes? Without spoiling the book for those who haven't read it yet, here are my Fifty Shades of Grey fashion picks:

What would Anastasia Steele wear?

• Ponte Boyfriend Blazer
• Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Slip
• Treehouse Tee
• Madewell Denim Midi Shorts
• Marc by Marc Jacobs Metal Aviator Sunglasses
• 3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli Mini Satchel

Christian Grey is a CEO, so obviously he wears a lot of suits... This is more of a casual weekend look for him:

• Rolex
• Dolce & Gabbana Black-Fit Tapered Jeans
• Alexander McQueen Skull-Print Cotton Shirt
• All Saints Mitre Blazer
• Alexander McQueen Contrast-Welt Washed Suede Boots

Have you read 50 Shades of Grey? What kind of style do you imagine for the characters?
