Celebrity Style: Whitney Port
My favorite Hills girl Whitney Port traded her red brocade Nicole Miller dress for something a little more vibrant and trendy while having lunch with a gal pal. We've been seeing florals quite a bit lately, but Whitney shows us the trend has yet to be exhausted. To mellow out the loudness of the dress, she accessorized with a gray scarf and a black satchel.
Topshop Balenciaga-Inspired Floral Zip Jacket: Love It or Hate It?
Most of you don't like Balenciaga's Spring collection (tear) but what if I told you you could buy a similar look for way less? Would the considerably lower price change your mind? If so, Topshop just came out with this Balenciaga-inspired Floral Zip Jacket ($130) that I think is darling.
Look of the Day: Floral Fever
Feathers isn't all chopped up in real life, but she sure looks like it in this creative photo! She's got floral fever in her simple, stylish outfit. I love the combination of pink, brown, and dark blue.
Who Wore It Better? Stella McCartney Floral Jumpsuit
I go ga-ga over Stella McCartney's Spring floral concoctions, and apparently so do Rihanna and Angie Harmon. The singer first wore Stella's floral jumpsuit back in April and accessorized with YSL heart sandals and oversized hoop earrings. Angie opted for a more polished evening look when she wore the same jumpsuit to the screening of The Party.
Trend Alert: Fresh Flowers
Can you smell them? The sweet, Spring-is-here smell of fresh flowers? Florals abound this season and they've also been quite literally translated onto vintage-inspired jewelry.
Online Sale Alert! Sale at Chick Downtown
If you're in the market for a dress that will make you stand out, Chick Downtown's sale section is the place to turn to. Whitley Kros, Theory, and Karen Zambos are just some of the featured brands.
Personally, I'm doting for this 12th Street by Cynthia Vincent Ruffle Mini Floral Dress ($206, originally $412) because it's feminine, but not in an obnoxious way; the black background and sheer sleeves lend a special touch.
Who Wore It Better? Ralph Lauren Floral Ruffle Dress
When I saw photos of Diane Kruger wearing Ralph Lauren's floral ruffle dress at the Sideaction AIDS benefit in Paris, I instantly approved. Her nude clutch and minimal use of jewelry really work to showcase the feminine print. More recently, Ralph Lauren model, Lonneke Engel, wore the same dress to an event in NYC.
Sneak Peek! Celia Birtwell for Express
There are so many high-low designer collaborations these days, I can hardly keep track of them all. But girl am I glad I didn't let the Celia Birtwell for Express one slip through the cracks. Her '60s-inspired prints are just what I need right now.
Look of the Day: Triple Tiered
yellowskwittles balanced out a girly triple tiered floral skirt with some tough accessories. Her wide belt and high heels give her look a dose of svelte toughness and she looks super Fab!
Here's what she has on:
- Shirt: Forever 21
- Belt: Forever 21
- Skirt: Forever 21
- Shoes: Target
