We've been fans of Nordstrom's partnership with British style authority Topshop since it launched last year, but we must say, the new Summer arrivals are really wooing us — and it doesn't hurt that standard shipping is free (as with all Nordstrom purchases). Here are a few items from the line that we're adding to our shopping cart.
Sienna Miller knows how to start (and own) a trend — boho chic, anyone? — but her latest turn toward a more feminine fit-and-flare silhouette is something she has actually loved for years. While Miller's long-sleeved, light blue Matthew Williamson box-pleat dress may be the most recent example of her penchant for the girlier style, she has also stepped out in Topshop, Valentino, and Twenty8Twelve iterations. And it's not hard to see why she loves a fit-and-flare dress — and why, if you haven't converted yet, it's a really flattering choice for most body types. By cinching the smallest part of your waist and letting the skirt flare out over the hips, it creates an illusion of a bombshell-like figure. And for those of you who aren't after a totally body-con fit, this route touches on something halfway to formfitting. All the proof you need, according to Sienna Miller, is right here.
Julianne Hough opted for a more whimsical choice this evening, stepping out in a strapless gray Topshop tulle dress. The high-low hemline revealed a pair of black rhinestone-studded pumps, offering up a shimmery touch to her neutral color palette. Meanwhile, a slick updo, bold eyebrows, and dramatic lashes finished off her red-carpet outfit. How'd she do?

Nicole Richie might have opted for a more subdued ensemble tonight, wearing a beaded Topshop dress and Vero Cuoio pumps, but she made up for it with a super punked-out gray updo and subversive jewels. Gold cuff earrings injected a tough touch into her look, while additional vintage silver jewels by Maria Francesca Pepe and a gold House of Harlow 1960 clutch supplied a more ladylike vibe. Do you love it?

If you're looking for the most polished play on overalls, score Ashley's exact jumpsuit — and style it up or down. Want to know how? Just refer to our simple tips below:

Blush is an often underrated must have in any makeup bag. Many worry it can venture into clown territory, but when you choose the right shade and product for your skin type, it can give you a nice glow, accentuate your cheekbones, and bring out the color of your eyes. Watch how to find the right blush for you.
Back in the day, the color orange was saved for Halloween and Thanksgiving, but thanks to brands like J.Mendel, Helmut Lang, and Carolina Herrera, the once unpopular hue is now bigger than ever. The latest installment on the virtual shelves highlights chic skirts from J.Crew, bold printed tops from Etro, and romantic maxis from ASOS. Basically, there's a style for everyone. Style tip: make sure to accessorize your citrus look with neutral accessories for a chicer appeal. From sweet tangerine to poppy orange, shop our top 13 picks below.

Among Coachella's best-dressed A-list pack, Kate Bosworth certainly ranks high, and it has a lot to do with her day-one look. The blond actress hit the fairgrounds in a scalloped white leather shorts set that not only proved fresh and just a tad bit girlie, but also — thanks to the allover laser-cut perforations — supplied a new way to wear white this Summer. The best part? This outfit comes courtesy of Topshop's not-yet-debuted Festival collection, which promises a 360-degree campaign dedicated to the music, clothes, film, and attitude of the British music festival scene. And who better to test drive the Festival lineup than a bona fide cool girl (that just so happens to have her own ties to Topshop, too)?
We love that she stuck to her signature "less is more" styling approaching, adding only the minimum in festival-going necessities. Her brown shoulder bag, aviator sunglasses, metal-tipped ankle boots, and Jennifer Fisher cuff were the only accessories thrown into the mix. As for actually getting our hands on her Topshop Festival combo, we're counting the days until we hear more about this unreleased collection — stay tuned.
