If you are truly fearless when it comes to fashion, take note, because the latest trend to pop up on our radar is for you. What is it, you ask? Well, ladies, cropped tops are having a pretty major moment right now thanks to brands like Prada and Dolce Gabbana, not to mention tastemakers like Dakota Fanning and Rihanna. With that said, if you consider yourself to be truly fearless and intrepid when it comes to your personal style, today’s Trend Report has all the details on how to make this trend your own, so read on!

Who is trying this trend?
Elle Fanning was one of the first to try this look, clearly refusing to allow her youth to get in the way of her fearlessness when it comes to fashion. Elle stepped out in a floral two-piece in Los Angeles back in April. Earlier this month, Christa B. Allen hit the Lucky party in West Hollywood wearing a black bustier top and a printed midi skirt. More recently, Rihanna was spotted out and about in New York City wearing a cropped top and trousers, while Jaime King attended The CW’s Upfront presentation in New York just last week wearing a Proenza Schouler ensemble and a Rag & Bone jacket.

How are they styling it?
This trend can be challenging, but there is a trick that will ensure you pull this look off with panache. The key? Take notes from all four of our muses and make sure that the piece you wear on your lower half—whether it is a flared skirt in the style of Christa and Elle, a pair of trousers a la Rihanna, or a slim skirt like the one Jaime wore—covers your bellybutton. In other words, you only want the area of skin just above your navel and just below your bust to show. If you can stick to this rule, you will pull off this look with aplomb. Of course, there are a few other elements to keep in mind. We recommend you take tips from Christa, Elle, and Jaime and opt for a skirt in a longer length—this will help balance out that sexy glimpse of skin!. We also highly endorse a killer heel. After all, nothing says sexy like a stiletto. Last, but certainly not least, we like the way both Rihanna and Jaime covered up their cropped tops with a button-down shirt and a jacket, respectively. This is perfect for those who want to try this look but do not want to be the absolute center of attention.

How can I make this look my own?
There are two directions you can go in when shopping for this look. Your first option is to pick out matching items like, for instance, Evil Twin’s Solar Flare Lace Front Bustier ($66) and Fishtail Maxi Skirt ($157). When paired with ankle boots, this duo makes for a winning look. If you want something a little more casual for, say, a poolside party, you could check out Mara Hoffman’s Mexican Blanket Bustier Top ($238) and Shorts ($242). Your second option is to mix and match different tops and bottoms, which allows you to be a little more creative. With that said, we suggest pairing a top like River Island’s Bow Back Bustier ($28) with a skirt like ASOS’s Pencil Skirt ($70), or try pairing a top like Silence & Noise’s Print Block Bustier ($20) with Sonia by Sonia Rykiel’s High-Waisted Stretch-Twill Skirt ($182). Happy shopping!

It is no secret that denim is a wardrobe staple, but that doesn’t mean that the denim world is static. Au contraire, the world of denim is ever-changing and right now printed jeans are having a pretty major moment thanks to top tastemakers like Olivia Palermo and Jessica Alba. So, how can you try this look for yourself? Start by clicking through to today’s Style Spy story where you can discover how four stylish stars are working this look and our check out the best printed jeans on the market!

Who is wearing printed jeans?
Unsurprisingly, Olivia Palermo was one of the early adopters of this look—she was spotted out in New York City in early March, wearing a pair of Paige Denim’s Verdugo Jeggings. A few weeks later, Victoria Justice rocked a pair of printed Rag & Bone jeans to film a segment on Extra in Los Angeles. Last month, Emma Roberts wore a pair of colorful purple jeans while running errands in Beverly Hills, but the most recent star to try this look is Jessica Alba, who stepped out just last weekend in Beverly Hills wearing a pair of Earnest Sewn’s Harlan Jeans.

How are they styling them?
As you can see, girls of every style can rock a pair of printed jeans. For instance, Olivia styled hers in her typically sophisticated way by pairing her jeans with a smart pea coat and killer heels. Victoria opted for a suitably youthful look, adding a bright cardigan and a simple white tee. The result? A fun and effortlessly stylish look that could easily transition from a day out shopping to a night on the town. Emma and Jessica both opted for casually-chic looks. Emma simply added a cardigan and ballet flats, a perfect combination for a day of running errands. As for Jessica, she paired her printed jeans with a breezy blouse and a pair of on-trend sneakers, creating a cool Californian vibe in an instant. To sum up, the basic principle behind this look is to stay true to your personal style. Add pieces that are appropriate for the occasion and that match your own style, thereby allowing your jeans to take the spotlight.

How can I make this look my own?
It won’t be hard to find a pair of printed jeans that you love because there are so many amazing options on the market right now—and just like this look works for girls of every style, there are options for every budget. For instance, on the higher end of the scale, you will find Isabel Marant’s Ipa Tie-Dye Low-Rise Skinny Jeans ($420), which have a breezy vibe, and Dolce & Gabbana’s Cropped Peony-Print Mid-Rise Skinny Jeans ($745), which are perfect for summer. A notch down, we are obsessed with Diane von Furstenberg’s Classic Skinny Jeans ($258), which were part of DVF’s collaboration with Current/Elliott. We also like the girly feel of Citizens Of Humanity’s Mandy Relaxed Roll Up Jeans ($374) and J Brand’s Mid-Rise Ankle Jeans ($416). Now, if you need something budget-friendly, you are really going to score. Free People’s Ikat Print Crop Skinny Jeans ($88) are ready for your next music festival, while ASOS’s Skinny Jeans ($61) will give your outfit a pop of color. Both Topshop’s Moto Vintage Floral Jamie Jeans ($90) and Textile Elizabeth & James’s Deb Skinny Cropped Jeans ($225) have a retro feel. On the other hand, if you want something a little softer, you should definitely check out Insight’s Beanpole Skinny Jeans ($100) and Mango’s Floral Print Super-Slim Jeans ($60). Happy shopping!

Embroidered Tunic ($80) by Zara
Why we like it: A little white dress is a must-have during the spring/summer season. It has an easy and effortless vibe that is perfect for warm weather, plus it can easily transition from day to night with a few tweaks. Plus, who can say no to embroidery?

Striped Jersey Dress ($120) by Splendid
Why we like it: This dress is perfect for the girl-on-the-go who needs something that is as unfussy as it is fashion-forward. We would pair it with suede ankle boots or ballet flats, buckle a belt around the waist, and then head out the door. So easy!

Natalia Dress ($130) by Charlie Jade
Why we like it: It’s hard to say no to this color scheme, but the main reason we love this dress is because of its versatility. We’d pair it with flats for a poolside party, for instance, than add wedges for a dinner with our girlfriends.

Girls, it is time to treat yourself to a good old-fashioned pedicure because sandal season has officially arrived—and if you couldn’t already tell, we are oh-so excited! To show you just how excited we are, we have put together a very special Top Buys story today and it is jam-packed with amazing sandals you will want to call your own—from gold gladiators through to strappy slide-ons. On that note, click through to see the sandals we are coveting right now and don’t say we didn’t warn you—there are some amazing options inside!

So, let’s jump right in. As you can see, there are options that will suit every style, every occasion, and every budget. For instance, if you are fearless when it comes to fashion and you can’t get enough of a bright neon hue, you are sure to love Rebecca Minkoff’s Bettina Flat Sandals ($125). The hot pink silhouette will instantly brighten any outfit you wear it with, while the slight wedge heel will definitely flatter your legs. We would make this sandal the focus of our outfit by pairing it with a neat white shift dress. Equally, Mix No. 6′s Daphne Sandals ($30) are great if you want to add a pop of bright color to your look. Plus, thanks to the t-strap silhouette of these sandals, they will look just as good with skinny jeans as they will with a sun dress. Now, if you prefer muted colors over bright hues, there are plenty of choices for you. For instance, we love Nine West’s Piraya Sandals ($79). The soft color palette makes them appropriate for a day in the office while the patent colorblock straps make them chic enough for a night out on the town. We are similarly obsessed with Reiss’s Concorde Chain T-Bar Sandals ($180). The black heel sets off the mint-green and peach straps, creating a nice balance of colors. The chain strap, however, is what really won us over—it gives these sandals a sophisticated feel.

Now, if you prefer to play with patterns over pigments, we have two amazing options for you. The first is Alexandre Birman’s Multi-Strap Python Sandals ($495), a pair of colorful python sandals. Not only will these give your outfit an instantly chic upgrade, but they will draw plenty of attention thanks to the bold python print. If you love an animal print, but python is not quiet your thing, you should also check out Dolce & Gabbana’s Leopard-Print Leather Sandals ($485). We like the way these sandals are bright enough that they can be the focus of your outfit, if you want them to, but they are also easy to blend in with other prints and patterns. We would pair them with a printed shift dress or a cute skirt-and-blouse combo and let the shoes do the rest! Last, but certainly not least, some of you may lean towards texture—for instance, braiding, beading, and so on. If so, you should definitely check out Topshop’s Heroic Gladiator Sandals ($60) and Zara’s Ethnic Vamp Shoes ($70). The Topshop sandals are great for the girl who needs something that lasts all day and into the night—the gold hue will give you a glam twist that definitely lasts all day. As for the Zara sandals, we can see these being your go-to music festival shoe this summer, but they are also perfect for vacations, road trips, and poolside parties. Just pair them with your favorite maxi dress and head out the door. Happy shopping!

In the last few months, we have covered spring fashion from A through to Z, but if there is one area that we are always happy to revisit, it is accessories. With that said, today’s Style Tips story is devoted to spring accessories—including handbags, shoes, sunglasses, and jewelry. Better yet, we are taking inspiration from four startlingly stylish stars—including favorites like Jessica Alba and Kate Bosworth. So what are you waiting for? Click through to discover four amazing accessory tips!

Spice up your outfit with a neon handbag.
It is no secret that a pop of color will instantly transform a simple outfit into a stand-out outfit and we can’t think of a better way to do it than with a bright neon handbag—with inspiration from Jessica Alba, of course. For a casual outing, Jessica teamed a neon orange satchel with a selection of easy pieces: a white top, a denim vest, and pale peach skinny jeans. The bag immediately drew attention to her outfit for all the right reasons, which is exactly what the right accessory should do. To try this fun spring look for yourself, check out these bags: Diane von Furstenberg’s Mini Harper Neon Leather Bag ($295), Rebecca Minkoff’s Neon Mini Mac ($195), and Steve Madden’s Bpandora Bag ($78).

Silver flats add a glam twist to a casual look.
In the same way, adding a pair of silver flats to your outfit a la Karolina Kurkova is a great way to give an otherwise casual look a glam twist. As you can see, Karolina paired a lightweight knit with a pair of skinny pink pants for a recent day out. This look is colorful and cute, yes, but the silver flats really spiced up the look. Not only do they give it a glam feel, but they make it super easy if you want an outfit that lasts all day and into the night. To make this chic spring look your own, these flats are perfect: Nine West’s Panto Flats ($59), Zara’s Patent Ballerina Flats ($80), and Topshop’s Koko Ballet Shoes ($80).

Tackle the retro look with a pair of cat-eye sunnies.
There are practical reasons to invest in a new pair of sunglasses this spring (they protect your eyes) and there are not-so-practical reasons, but either way if you plan to invest, we suggest you take inspiration from Eva Mendes and pick up a retro cat-eye silhouette. Why, you ask? Well, a cat-eye is a particularly flattering shape that works for almost everyone. We also like the way the cat-eye gives your outfit that “something extra,” showing that you know what you are doing when it comes to accessories. Convinced? To try this retro look for yourself, check out these shades: House of Harlow 1960′s Chantal Sunglasses ($125), Kate Spade New York’s Franca Cat-Eye Sunglasses ($128), and Topshop’s Large Cat-Eye Sunglasses ($32).

Wear statement earrings during the day.
Statement earrings are having a pretty major moment right now, but if you thought they were only to be brought out at night, you were wrong. On the contrary, we suggest you take notes from Kate Bosworth and wear yours all day, every day. Kate picked out a pair of silver JewelMint earrings for a recent day out. We love the way they jazzed up her outfit and gave it an eye-catching twist, but we particularly like how easy this look is to pull off—it really doesn’t matter what you are wearing, this look works. With that said, check out BaubleBar’s Gold Armor Earrings ($42), Oscar de la Renta’s Geometric Drop Earrings ($190), and Shourouk’s E. Vegas Earrings ($350) to make this look your own.

There are certain pieces of clothing that will go down in history and Michael Jackson’s red leather “Thriller” jacket is certainly one of them. In fact, thanks to Michael Jackson, “Thriller” is the first thing that comes to mind when we see a red leather jacket—and lately, we have been seeing a lot of them thanks to top tastemakers like Gwen Stefani and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, not to mention major brands like Balmain. With that said, we can’t wait to get in on this trend and we are willing to bet you can’t either, so click through to today’s Trend Report for the scoop on how you can make this thrilling trend your very own!

Who is trying this trend?
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was one of the first stars to give this new trend a spin, sporting a dark red leather jacket on her way out of her New York City hotel back in March. Sophia Bush followed soon after, wearing a cherry red leather jacket to a Lakers game in Los Angeles in early April. Earlier this month, Gwen Stefani wore a bright red jacket to a Coldplay concert in Los Angeles, while the very next day, Jessica Alba wore a red-and-white leather jacket for a flight out of LAX Airport in Los Angeles.

How are they styling it?
This trend is such an easy one to pull off because the red hue of the jacket will instantly jazz up your outfit. In other words, you can wear it with something super-simple and still look super-stylish. With that said, let’s take a look at how each of our four muses styled their “Thriller” jackets. As you can see, Sophia, Gwen, and Jessica all opted to stick to an always-chic color combo: red, black, and white. Both Sophia and Jessica opted for relaxed silhouettes, which balanced out the cropped and fitted silhouettes of their jackets. Naturally, Gwen gave her outfit a personal twist by adding polka-dot skinny jeans. As for Rosie, she picked a grey tee and pale blue skinny jeans to pair with her jacket, which worked better given that her jacket was darker in color. Once again, she was able to wear low-key pieces because the jacket instantly elevated her outfit from simple to stand-out. To sum up, you can dress your jacket up or down—the choice is yours!

How can I make this look my own?
The best thing about this trend, of course, is the shopping—and we are pleased to report that there are tons of options on the market right now. If you are working with a budget, we suggest you check out Kenneth Cole’s Mixed Media Moto Jacket ($135) and Bebe’s Zip Front Leather Jacket ($199). Both of these come in a bright cherry red, but if you want a darker hue, you can check out Muubaa’s Mallow Leather Moto Jacket ($530). On the other end of the scale, we are obsessed with IRO’s Tangerine Leather Jacket ($1,095)—zips, lapels, and a flattering fit, oh my!—and we are equally enamored with Simone’s Leather Biker Jacket ($1,275). When paired with your favorite black and white pieces, any of these jackets will make for a perfect addition to your look! On that note, happy shopping!

As we head into summer, it becomes more and more important to find trends that are as easy-to-wear as they are stylish, which is why we are so smitten with the latest accessory trend to pop up on our radar: fabric headbands. After all, not only are fabric headbands a quick way to change up your outfit, but they can help you out on a bad hair day—that means double the benefits! Even better, with brands like Marc Jacobs and top tastemakers like Rihanna and Taylor Swift on board, there is inspiration aplenty, so click through to today’s Accessory Report for all the details on how to make this trend your very own.

Who is trying this trend?
We think of Rihanna as a leader, not a follower, so we weren’t surprised to see that she was one of the first to try this trend. Yes, all the way back in January, Rihanna was spotted out and about in West Hollywood wearing a blue knotted head band that accentuated the blues in her outfit. A few months later, in April, Lana Del Rey was spotted at a basketball game in Los Angeles wearing a yellow headband that added a girly touch to her otherwise boyish ensemble. The following week, Nicole Richie was photographed out in West Hollywood wearing a cow-print scarf with her ethnic-print jumpsuit, evoking thoughts of the bohemian ensembles Nicole used to wear back in 2006. Finally, just last week, Taylor Swift wore a polka-dot headband while out shopping in Los Angeles, a piece that added a playful touch to her chic ensemble.

How are they styling it?
One of the best things about this particular accessory trend is that there are no rules—you are free to play as much or as little as you want. For instance, you could follow in the footsteps of Taylor and use your headband to bring out the playful side of your personality and add a fun twist to your outfit. Or, you could take notes from Nicole and use your headband to emphasize a part of your personality; in this case, Nicole has used her headband to accentuate her bohemian tendencies. You could take the lead from Lana and use your headband to balance out your outfit—not to mention to tame a thick mane! Or you could do as Rihanna has done and make your headband part of your outfit—just make sure you pick likeminded colors. There are so many ways to style this look, so just pick the one that is right for you and that stays true to your personal style.

How can I make this look my own?
If you already thought this accessory trend was good, it is about to get better because this trend is perfect for girls on a budget. With that said, there are plenty of luxe options on the market, so we have picked a variety of styles that will suit girls of every budget. On the high end of the scale, we like Lanvin’s Crepe-Jersey Turban Headband ($500)—oh-so chic!—and Missoni’s Zigzag Crochet-Knit Headband ($135). Further down the scale, we love Eugenia Kim’s Sonia Headband ($77) as it is conveniently pre-tied. We also like Eugenia Kim’s Natalia Print Turban Headband ($99)—this is a brand that knows what it is doing! Last, but certainly not least, if you are on a budget, make sure you check out Johnny Loves Rosie’s Liberty Ditsy Headband ($31), Topshop’s Tribal Headband ($16), Free People’s Bow Headband ($18), and ModCloth’s Twist on the Ordinary Headband ($14). Happy shopping!

While many know Ashley Madekwe as aspiring socialite Ashley Davenport on ABC’s Revenge, we at Mama’s A Rolling Stone have come to know the British actress as quite the style maven, thanks to “Ring My Bell,” the blog and Tumblr twin-set on which Ashley documents her style. When reaching for a reference to describe Ashley’s style, one might say she is Audrey Hepburn meets Edie Sedgwick meets Jane Birkin—strong references, ’tis true, but Ashley definitely has a bold sense of style. On that note, if you like Ashley’s style as much as we do, we suggest you click through to today’s It Girl story to discover all the need-to-know details on what she wears and how to make her look your own.

What does she wear?
As we already mentioned, Ashley deftly mixes a variety of different styles to come up with her own personal style. For instance, on one outing in in Los Angeles (far left), she mixed a slouchy grey cardigan, a graphic tee, denim cut-offs, and ankle booties to create a balance of cool and classic pieces. On another occasion (second from left), Ashley layered a cropped motorcycle jacket over a breezy white dress, before adding a pair of studded Chloe boots—a look that mixed rocker-chic with boho charm. On yet another occasion (second from right), a neon-lime sweater was layered over a pleated leather skirt, creating a look that was certain to catch the eye. Last, but certainly not least, for an InStyle event (far right), Ashley paired a navy sheath dress with bright orange heels, once again infusing a classic look with a playful touch.

How does she style it?
While Ashley does play with a slew of different styles, one thing remains the same throughout every outfit: a sense of fun. Whether Ashley adds a graphic tee, a studded boot, a neon sweater, or a brightly colored heel to her outfit, every ensemble she puts together has a fun twist, and as such, this “sense of fun” has become part of her signature. Another key element of Ashley’s style is the way she plays with accessories. Once again, Ashley balances classic pieces—a gold watch here, a Chanel bag there—with costume pieces, creating a style that is all her own. Our overall verdict? Ashley has figured out her personal style and she owns it in a way that make it seem oh-so effortless.

How can I make Ashley’s look my own?
As we have discussed, the key to Ashley’s look is how she mixes different pieces with each other, so rather than find you an entire outfit to make your own, we have selected a set of pieces that you can use to mix with your current wardrobe. Start by picking up a tough leather jacket like Muubaa’s Chopped Leather Moto Jacket ($300) and pairing it with your favorite breezy dress—if you don’t have one, pick up a dress like Free People’s Fitted With Daisies Dress ($128). If you prefer separates, check out pieces like Monrow’s Crew Sweatshirt ($110), J Brand’s Lola Leather Shorts ($394), Zara’s Ribbon Knit Cardigan ($80), and Maje’s Brigitte Bardot Tee ($185). When it comes to shoes, make sure you pick up a chunky boot like Rag & Bone’s Classic Newbury Booties ($495) and a bright heel like Mango’s Strap Sandals ($80). As for accessories, you will want a classic bag such as Rebecca Minkoff’s Quilted Shimmer Flirty Bag ($250) and a few jewelry pieces that you return to again and again.

The eye-catching products you see above have more in common than you think. Not only are they all bright and colorful, but they are all perfect items for your next summer vacation. Yes, whether you are heading as far away as Waikiki or as close as Miami, you are bound to need a new dress (or two), not to mention a slew of accessories and separates. So what are you waiting for? Click through to today’s Top Buys story to discover the must-have items we will be packing for our next summer vacation. Read on!

Large Basket ($30) by Zara
Why we like it: The number one reason we are smitten with this bag is that it is as practical as it is pretty. It can hold everything you need for a day at the beach, but it doesn’t have that beach bag vibe, which means you can use it all day long—at the restaurant, at the bar, and so on.

Ikat Maxi Dress ($188) by Ella Moss
Why we like it: This is a piece that can do double duty while on your vacation. During the day, you can pair it with flat sandals and a floppy hat for a shopping expedition. At night, you can add a pile of jewelry and a pair of heels for a night of dancing and fun. Bonus: the ikat print will definitely turn heads!

Zippered Silk Tank ($385) by ALC
Why we like it: One rule of thumb we live by when packing for a vacation is to bring at least one statement piece and we think this silk tank is the one. Not only is it guaranteed to brighten up any and every outfit you include it in, but it is so easy to wear and it goes with just about everything you own.

Fade Away Shades ($40) by Quay
Why we like it: Sunglasses should be one of the first things you pack for your vacation. Not only will they protect your eyes from the harsh sun, but they can change your look in an instant, which is especially helpful when you want to take a makeup-free day. We particularly love the pastel hues on this pair, not to mention the universally flattering silhouette.

Kaleidoscope Bandeau Bikini Set ($96) by Insight
Why we like it: Obviously, a swimsuit is a must when packing for a vacation (unless you are heading to Antarctica) and can’t get over this pretty bikini set. Brightly-colored kaleidoscope print? Check! Super-flattering silhouette on top and bottom? Check! Removable straps that will prevent unflattering tan lines? Check! When it meets all the requirements like this bikini does, how can you resist?

Harley Plaited Gold Sandals ($44) by Topshop
Why we like it: These sandals will go with all our other picks, not to mention plenty of the pieces currently in your closet. In addition, because they are flat, you can wear them while you take in your next adventure. Bonus: the gold hue gives them a glam twist, so they will be perfect if your day of fun turns into a fun night out.

Jacara Embellished Mini Dress ($590) by Antik Batik
Why we like it: If you prefer a mini dress over a maxi, this is the one for you. Once again, this dress can do double duty on vacation and create a slew of different outfits. During the day, we would wear it with a pair of t-strap sandals. For night, we would simply add a pair of cropped white skinny jeans.

Silk Shorts ($129) by Laugh Cry Repeat
Why we like it: There is something to be said about a piece that works just as easily by the pool as it does out to dinner. We would pair these shorts with a simple tank top and a pair of sandals during the day and then add a silky blouse and a pair of killer heels for a night out on the town.

While some of us are still finding and refining our personal style, we are pretty positive that the subjects of today’s Steal Her Style story—to be specific, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kirsten Dunst, and Gwen Stefani—have theirs all figured out. Even better, Gwyneth, Kirsten, and Gwen have very different personal style, which means that there is likely something for everyone in today’s story. On that note, we invite you to join us as we check out their outfits and pilfer all our favorite pieces. Read on!

Gwyneth Paltrow
Late last month, Gwyneth Paltrow was spotted out in New York City wearing a crisp white blazer, cropped black pants, and turquoise cap-toe pumps. We always love to see what Gwyneth will come up with next and this latest outfit definitely did not disappoint. We like the way each element plays its part—the white blazer gives this outfit a sophisticated twist, the pants are super flattering, and the pumps give the look a pop of color. So, how can we steal Gwyneth’s effortlessly chic style? Start by picking up a similarly smart blazer—we like Bop Basics’s The Fiance Blazer ($198) and Zara’s Jacquard Pattern Blazer ($90). Then, simply add a pair of cropped pants like J Brand’s Ginger Mid-Rise Zip Jeans ($225) before finishing with a colorful heel such as KG’s Bobbie Pointed Court Shoes ($145) or Vince Camuto’s Prue Pumps ($225). Voila!

Kirsten Dunst
Back in April, Kirsten Dunst wore a floral dress, a cropped denim jacket, and strappy sandals while out for a stroll in Los Feliz. We like this outfit for one simple reason: it is perfect for the spring/summer season. The floral dress and sandals instantly evoke thoughts of warm, sunny days, while the denim jacket ensures that the outfit will hold up during the more fickle spring months. Aside from this, we also like the way the denim jacket give the girly dress a tough, boyish twist. On that note, let’s steal Kirsten’s cool Californian style! First, pick up a bright floral dress like Minkpink’s Lollie Floral Tie Back Dress ($118) or Trinity’s Floral Print Tunic Dress ($69). Then, throw Topshop’s Moto Bleach Western Jacket ($80) over the top, before finishing with a pair of easy-to-wear sandals like Alexander Wang’s Vika Suede Wedge Sandals ($415).

Gwen Stefani
Last week, Gwen Stefani was spotted out and about in Santa Monica wearing a striped top, skinny jodhpur-style jeans, and wedge booties. As always, Gwen has managed to inject her outfit with her own effortlessly cool vibe, thanks to a few key tactics. Firstly, her jodhpur-style pants give her outfit an unexpected twist. Secondly, by adding eye-catching accessories—bright sunglasses, a striped belt—she has ensured there is more to her outfit than meets the eye. So, how can we steal Gwen’s fun and fearless style? Start by picking up a striped top like Juicy Couture’s Breton Top in Atlantis ($138) and teaming it with a pair of riding pants—we like J Brand’s Jodhpur Jeans ($226). Then, simply add Joie’s I Will Survive Booties in Elephant ($260) and accessories like Free People’s Lace Print Sunglasses ($24) and you are all set.
