Estee Stanley

Celebrity Stylist. Los Angeles

We’re bringing you inside the Los Angeles home and spectacular closet of someone who not only inspires us daily, but is hands down one of the females who, unbeknownst to her, propelled us to pursue our careers in fashion.
Estee Stanley, the celebrated top-notch stylist and interior designer has been dressing some of our style icons for the last fifteen years. With an aesthetic that can’t be pinpointed (she’s far from cookie-cutter), Stanley is the woman at the helm of the stylistic dress choices of everyone from Ashley Olsen to Penelope Cruz to Jessica Biel to Lea Michele. And as always, when they are in Stanley’s hands, they look nothing short of perfection.
But when it comes to her two fashion loves – Fendi and Manolo Blahnik take the prize (she even has her Manolo’s customized). In fact, her obsessive relationship with Fendi began in Rome when she was twenty-three – and it was love at first sight. And clearly, judging from our gallery, the relationship has only intensified throughout the years. We share a mutual love for Erdem (“Erdem is one of the most creative and nicest humans I’ve ever met. His mixture of colors are so mesmerizing. That he can turn them into beautiful things we can wear is perfection” states Stanley) and we’ve always been obsessed with her clothing line Miss Davenporte, which she created alongside Cristina Ehrlich.
So today, to honor one of fashion’s greatest talents, as well as one of our inspirations, we are both pleased and delighted to present you with a feast for your eyes – the home and closet, (which she designed herself) of the one and only Estee Stanley.

Shoes are one of the loves of my life. The best thing about them is they fit everyone so even when you’re not feeling so hot or your jeans are a little too tight you always have your shoes. My all time favorite since I was a little girl is Manolo Blahnik. He’s such an innovative designer, I cannot get enough of him.

These glasses were also purchased on my last trip to Paris, I had never seen anything like them and all I could imagine was me as a little old lady rocking the dopest CHANEL glasses at the retirement home.

Believe it or not I found this bench hidden under a pile of rugs at a rug store and the owner gave it to me! And the skull I was given as a gift.

I’m sure at this point your readers are aware that I’m Fendi obsessed, don’t you agree? I just can’t get enough of them. I’m starting to think about using my kids college money to buy a few more.

This painting is by artist Elisa Johns. I went to an opening of her show and it was right there when I walked in and I had never seen anything like it so I had to have it.

Fendi is like my Blahnik. Their bags are like little slices of heaven. And this painting is a Mark Ryden and I COVET it. He’s one of this generations most stunning artists and hopefully one day I'll own a piece you can’t slip into your bag.

This was a gift from my dearest and most fun friend who has seen me at my highest and my lowest low! And it was my 40th birthday present. IT’S PERFECT.

This bag has been to some of the most gorgeous beaches in the world. Positano, St. Tropez, St. Barths... she’s really spoiled isn’t she?

We spend so much time in the back side as my son calls it. He loves hanging out and so do my husband and I. California has the best weather and we just love hanging by the pool and in his sandbox.

It was one of my dresses that I was going to wear to my wedding but ended up not. Instead, Lea Michele wore it to the Globes last year.

This bag is soooo spectacular and rare. Not only does it have python straps and branded wood but I’ve never seen anything like it. That’s why I love them so much, they’re so classic but also so inventive and modern. Isabel Marant makes the most comfortable, easy to wear yet sexy clothes. Things you never get sick of wearing that are always in style.

I never knew that Blahnik does special orders, even after all these years, until my salesgirl told me so. These were in all black at the NYC store but I customized them to what they are now.

Oscar is such an artist, his designs have spanned so many decades. You will never look back and say I can’t believe I wore that, you’re always going to say I looked sensational.

This is my first love and first Fendi. I was twenty-three years old, backpacking through Italy, and I was in Rome walking around. We went into the Fendi store and they had just gotten a huge shipment they were unpacking and out came this bag. I gasped and just sucked it up and put it on my card. We’ve been together ever since.

Fendi again I know... their variety of bags are so incredible. They’re like jewelry, all so different from each other. The drawing was found at Fat Chance, a store in LA. I bought it because it looks exactly like one of my closest friends and I swear she posed for this for money but will never admit it.
