Gisele Bundchen and her adorable baby bump did some shopping in Boston wearing a white crochet top with sexy denim cutoffs. The supermodel accessorized via a brown suede Loewe bag, nude ankle-strap ballet flats, and aviator sunglasses. A few delicate gold jewels added subtle shine to Gisele's summertime look. Before the warm-weather season ends, mimic Gisele's latest outfit by pairing a white crochet top with your denim cutoffs, then finishing off with neutral accessories. Come Fall, match your crochet top with wide-leg jeans and a trench coat for a '70s-chic vibe.

Zoe Saldana was spotted, literally, wearing this superfun Splendid colorful dotted top ($85) with these Citizens of Humanity high-waisted skinny jeans ($218) in LA over the weekend. The actress also sported nude patent flats, a pair of Loewe sunglasses, and a dark-red suede tote bag. What we love so much about Zoe's top is its versatility — it looked fabulous with casual jeans, but would also look great tucked into a sleek black pencil skirt for work. Then matched up with leather bottoms, the polka dots would gain major edge. Shop Zoe's exact top and jeans now to get her look now!

Jessica Alba was all business with notebook in hand while leaving a studio in LA, but her subtly colored denim — a huge departure from the loud jeans she's recently been sporting — was nothing but fun. The actress paired peach J Brand skinnies with a crisp white button-down and topped it off with a metallic Joe's Jeans jacket that's perfect for Spring. She completed her look with snakeskin moto boots, '80s-inspired sunglasses, and a fuchsia Loewe crossbody bag — snag a similar style from the label here. Make Jessica's jacket and jeans your Spring go-tos, then for an alternative to her look, layer the jacket over a fancy black frock for evening, and pair the peach jeans with a tank for the weekend.

Jessica Alba has been sporting an array of colored denim lately from yellow to neon green and now bright pink. While strolling the Jardin du Luxembourg in Paris, Jessica channeled her inner spunky girl by styling bright pink skinnies with a black coat and matching ankle boots. Her vibrant Loewe shoulder bag adds extra flair, as does the bright yellow striped sweater we chose for her. The gorgeous actress proves not only that bright colors can be fashion forward, but that there are also a variety of ways to inject them into your everyday style.

The weather may be drab, but that is no excuse to stash your colorful duds in the back of your closet. Take a cue from Zoe Saldana, who injected a pop of Spring into her Winter look while out and about in LA. She started off with distressed denim and suede western booties, then wrapped a vibrant scarf over her eggplant sweater. Gradient shades and a two-tone Loewe bag rounded up her strolling style. Try a striking bag, sweater, or accessory to instantly brighten up your Winter wardrobe.
