Reese Witherspoon's Way to Work Printed Skirts For Summer

Reese Witherspoon got all dressed up for a lunch in Malibu, and we're so glad she did because she gave us a fresh way to work our printed skirts this Summer.

Reese Witherspoon got all dressed up for a lunch in Malibu, and we're so glad she did because she gave us a fresh way to work our printed skirts this Summer. She started with a Rebecca Minkoff red-toned bandana mini ($288), then smartly tamed it with neutral add-ons. Up top, the star sported a white silk tank with a white blazer, then added a multi-strand coin necklace for major charm. She added colorblocked sandals and carried a white version of Proenza Schouler's PS1 handbag. But what's most appealing about Reese's look? It can be re-created in a variety of color palettes. For example, your blazer need not be white — it can be black or navy, too. To get Reese's exact style, shop similar pieces below.

Pretty Little Liars is back for its fourth season premiere tonight, so we couldn't think of a better time to call out one of its stars, Shay Mitchell.

Jessica Alba Stuns (Twice) at the Guys Choice Awards — Which Look Wins?

Spike TV's Guys Choice Awards is technically all about the boys, but we think Jessica Alba stole the show in not one, but two sexy looks.

Spike TV's Guys Choice Awards is technically all about the boys, but we think Jessica Alba stole the show in not one, but two sexy looks. Her first choice was a strapless, bright yellow, crocodile-print Versace dress that put both her décolletage and legs on display. For further fun, she added contrasting red pumps and a retro hairdo to finish. Then, for her onstage ensemble, Jessica changed into a more demure two-toned Narciso Rodriguez dress with embellished sandals and mini chandelier earrings. The first look didn't lack in the sass department, while Jessica's outfit change gave her an undeniably chic finish to the night. Tell us: which of Jessica Alba's Guys Choice Awards ensembles do you like best?

Not all Summer days are hot, so when Poppy Delevingne left her London pad this morning, she reminded us how to perfect the art of layering. First she started with a classic striped top, which many of us already own. Then she layered on an unexpected leather bomber jacket for a sporty twist. But the fun didn't stop there. Poppy added skinny jeans for a hint of cool, an ivory scarf for extra warmth, and a Louis Vuitton mini crossbody bag for some luxe. Finally, she finished with a pair of leopard loafers. Whether you're running errands or meeting friends for a casual lunch, mimic Poppy's ensemble when the weather calls for stylish layers. Shop similar pieces below to get the look.

Nicole Kidman, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Rooney Mara, and Carey Mulligan are just a few in a long list of fashion darlings and actresses to take Raf Simons from the runway to the red carpet. The latest is Jennifer Aniston, who chose a black strapless Dior minidress for the 2013 Guys Choice Awards. Ever since Belgian designer Simons, formerly of Jil Sander, took the reins at the legendary label, he's presented five exquisite collections. Naturally, stars like Cotillard (the face of Lady Dior) and Jennifer Lawrence (the face of Miss Dior handbags) have flocked to his jaw-dropping gowns, and we can totally see why. Simons is breathing new life into the design house by taking iconic past-collection references (think New Look from the 1940s) and updating them with a modern twist. Step inside to see all the stars who have donned Simons's designs for Dior now.

Two things we're smitten with right now: white pumps and little white dresses. So you can imagine our delight when we laid eyes on Kerry Washington at the annual Celebrate Sundance Institute Benefit in LA last night. Not only did the actress combine two of our current loves in a white Giambattista Valli sheath dress and pointy white Christian Louboutin pumps, but she added further freshness with a white Nancy Gonzalez clutch and a white watch. If you're intimidated to rock head-to-toe white, let Kerry inspire you to throw out that fear and go all-out chic for your next Summer soiree. Ready to go monochrome?

Alexa Chung was spotted in denim overalls — one of the more polarising of runway trends — while out in London, and we can't say that we're surprised by her cool-cum-classic styling skills. To keep things on the effortless side, Alexa sported a basic white tee, then added mega pizzazz via just three little accessories: mirrored sunglasses, cap-toe ballet flats, and a Louis Vuitton satchel. The flats lent feminine flair, her bag a hint of luxe, and the sunglasses a trendy twist. We're loving Alexa's not-so-masculine take on overalls, so to get in on the fun, shop similar pieces below.
