Celebrity Style: Nicky Hilton

FabSugar — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 14:00:22 PDT

Nicky Hilton is all about funky printed dresses lately and why not because they look so darn good on her. In general, prints are hard to pull off, but Nicky's eye is impeccable; she chooses ones that are exotic and mature. This Fab silk Nu Collective dress she wore while out to dinner with her boyfriend is no exception. And her accessories - Jeffrey Campbell studded sandals and purple Valentino bag - do a fine job of accentuating the look.

Who Wore It Better? Nu Collective Ivory Chiffon Tie Blouse

Now here's an example of a versatile top that can be worn in a laid-back and fancy manner. Nicky Hilton sported this Nu Collective ivory chiffon tie blouse with black skinny jeans while in Las Vegas recently. Hayden Panettiere showed up to the New Year, New Old Navy party in the same top but paired it with a black pencil skirt. Both ladies look chic, but do you prefer the fancy or casual look?

There's a special place in our closets for our t-shirt collection, right next to our favorite Louboutins and vintage Chanel finds. Holding sentimental and style value, our vintage tees get better with age, and they fit perfectly. Did you throw yours out during Spring cleaning? We've got the tips - and a few picks - to help you find the one.

Don't underestimate your go-to stores like Urban Outfitters and American Apparel. These retail chain stores also carry their own one-of-a-kind vintage lines.
Do try your local Goodwill, and be sure to hit the kids' and mens' sections. You'll have to do some digging, but the results could be huge pay off at a super low cost.
