Celeb Style: Alexa Chung's Sweet and Sexy LRD
Alexa Chung's quirky-sweet style combos never miss the mark. This latest one inspires a sexy-meets-girlie spin on the little red dress. We spotted the fashionable Brit stepping out for Valentino in one of the designer's brilliantly hued, bow-sleeved little frocks. On its own, the dress offers a slightly sexy statement, but paired with cheeky, Charlotte Olympia cat-face flats, Alexa balances the sultry appeal with a touch of humor. As if we couldn't love it anymore, we're also lusting after her studded, leather Valentino arm candy. Loving it, too? Just shop our editors' picks to channel Alexa's playful little look.

Picture yourself strolling down the street on a sunny day, hair blown out, nails freshly painted, and wearing this super feminine silk dress in a very sexy red color. Nice visual, right? We love the vintage '50s silhouette, the swinginess, the length, the vibrant color, and lastly, the price. This Vero Moda shirtdress is $45, a paltry amount for a dress that will get lots of mileage in warm weather.

Trend Alert: Red Hot
I've said it once and I'll say it again: There's nothing like a red hot dress. Sure to turn heads, the red dress is a purveyor of power, femininity, and sexuality. I tend to stow away my red dresses for the Winter months, but if it's hot outside, make the world swelter by throwing on a red frock. Confident and cool ladies Ali Larter and Mary-Louise Parker opted for red sheaths, while Rachel Weisz was in head-to-toe theatrics for a Vogue shoot. Is it hot in here, or is it me?
