Top 10 Celebrity Looks of the Week!

Like I said, really, the only common ground for these looks is that they're all on my style radar — click through to see why.

Whether roaming the city streets or attending ritzy events, celebs were out full-force this week looking stylish and chic. Were you paying attention? Test yourself!

Celeb Style: Hilary Rhoda
Models tend to have the best street style, and classic beauty Hilary Rhoda is the perfect example. We caught her on the streets of Manhattan recently, braving the chill in a snug and stylish ensemble. She starts with a pair of skinny black jeans ($189) and a fresh white tee, then adds a gray tweed coat ($60), black ballet flats, and cozy fingerless gloves. I especially love how she spices up her outfit with a bright red scarf ($12) and Alexander Wang's Rocco duffle bag ($875). Click the items above to start shopping!
