Celebrities Wearing Flats 2012

Let's face it: some days you just don't want to wear heels. Then there are those other days when you actually do want to wear heels, but end up succumbing to flats once your dogs start barking. Either way, flats lend a stylish dose of Parisian-chic to a pair of basic skinny jeans — and can make everything from printed trousers to floaty dresses look cool and casual, too. Style setters like Jessica Alba, Heidi Klum, Taylor Swift, and more look impossibly laid-back and effortless while running errands around town, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Miranda Kerr proved that airport comfort can also be incredibly glamorous, too.

Over the weekend, Mischa Barton attended a fancy party in Sweden wearing a pink draped dress topped with a green-and-gold bib necklace and finished with black ankle-strap platform sandals. What we love most about Mischa's look is that it's simple and snazzy all at the same time. The pink hue of the dress made her stand out, while the green necklace added a daring contrast color. If you have a cocktail party or Summer wedding coming up, consider mimicking Mischa's look by donning an equally pretty pink dress with a green bib necklace and black strappy sandals.

Shop It Out: The Great Gatsby Trailer

Lucky magazine is one of our favorite sources for great shopping tips.

Lucky magazine is one of our favorite sources for great shopping tips. We're thrilled to share this fabulous story from our friends at Lucky!

In case you couldn't tell from John's earlier post, we're all pretty freakin' pumped for Baz Luhrmann's forthcoming film adaptation of The Great Gatsby. And from the looks of its first-ever trailer, which hit the interwebs last night, everything from the casting to the set design to the storyline seems pitch-perfect . . . even if you aren't crazy about hearing Kanye West's "No Church in the Wild" juxtaposed against scenes of Roaring Twenties recklessness.

But the clothes . . . oh, the clothes. They're just too good to be true. Which is unsurprising, considering Luhrmann's wife Catherine Martin is behind the movie's costumes (she also worked on those for a little film he directed called Moulin Rouge). We predict flapper dresses, beaded headpieces and feathered accessories on September's runways, folks.

While we'll have to wait until The Great Gatsby's Christmas release to dissect the looks in every single scene, we've taken screenshots of some standout ensembles seen in the trailer — and dug up suitable alternatives for you to shop right now. After all, you'll need something to wear to those screening parties come December.
