Red and leopard have been worn together before, but the way Dita Von Teese paired them at the Cartier Queen's Cup Polo event in England is the most sophisticated version we've ever seen. She started with a red, fitted square-neck Roland Mouret dress, then upped her look by accessorizing with a leopard clutch and matching leopard pumps. Bordeaux leather gloves and metal-rimmed cat-eye sunglasses were also part of her outdoor ensemble. To re-create Dita's look for your next night out, wear a similar square-neck red dress, like this red pencil dress from Asos ($141), then go wild with a leopard clutch and leopard pumps. Gloves are optional but be sure to throw on cat-eye shades for a retro-chic feel.

Wear a Red Peplum Dress à la Charlize Theron at the MTV Movie Awards

Many stars looked flawless at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards, but Charlize Theron stole the show in her red peplum Lanvin dress and gold Jimmy Choo Lance sandals, a Hollywood favorite.

Many stars looked flawless at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards, but Charlize Theron stole the show in her red peplum Lanvin dress and gold Jimmy Choo Lance sandals, a Hollywood favorite. The combination of the vibrant hue, sleek silhouette, and sweet peplum detail made the actress stand out even on the matching red carpet. We also love that Charlize kept her Cartier jewels to a minimum, allowing her dress to take center stage. If you have a fabulous soiree coming up, channel Charlize at the MTV Movie Awards by getting this C. Luce peplum minidress ($69) or this Aryn K. strapless peplum dress ($94). Add a pair of Charlize's exact Jimmy Choo Lance sandals ($695) in gold or silver, simple diamond stud earrings, and a single bangle, and you're good to shine the night away.

Nicole Kidman is known for her classy style sense, but at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, where she promoted her new flick The Paperboy along with Matthew McConaughey and Zac Efron, the actress proved that the classic sheath can also be sexy! Nicole chose an orange red Antonio Berardi knee-length sheath with a fabulous side slit, then finished off with Manolo Blahnik peep toes and a gold Omega watch. While her exact dress isn't available, this red Antonio Berardi dress with a single side zip ($1,740) is equally stunning, especially since you can unzip it as much as you like. For something less pricey, try this Mango red slim-fit cocktail dress ($100). Or for an even sassier take on the classic sheath, get this Versace cutout red dress ($711, originally $1,105).
