Lifestyle Style Love Her Outfit! Star Style to Steal By People Staff Published on November 27, 2014 12:00 AM Share Tweet Pin Email Trending Videos 01 of 71 REESE WITHERSPOON AKM-GSI upcoming film is Wild, so we have to assume the daytime leopard print is a tribute to that. Slightly less wild: the classic accessories (pearl studs, a top handle Saint Laurent duffle and rich suede Manolo Blahnik pumps) and the $29.99 Talbot’s price tag. 02 of 71 JAMIE CHUNG Dean Neville/BFAnyc/Sipa Every week, we swear we won’t put another black jumpsuit in this gallery, and every week, we fail: Stars keep catching our eye in them and making them look totally fresh. Our latest fave? Jamie Chung’s Ann Taylor tuxedo style, which she wore to a Changemakers dinner hosted by the line. A wine lip and slightly edgy accessories were the perfect finishing touches, including Capwell + Co earrings. 03 of 71 REESE WITHERSPOON AKM-GSI is having a serious animal-print moment. We already made the Wild joke, so we’ll just talk about why this outfit works: Classic shapes, clean lines, and a few surprising twists – like the double-dose of leopard and that chunky padlock bracelet. 04 of 71 OLIVIA MUNN MediaPunch/REX USA We know you don’t have a ton of places to wear your wool bustier and wide-leg trousers, but if the opportunity should arise, be sure to style them as Olivia does here. Her dramatic, fabulous duster coat and perfectly-chosen accessories, like her structured ink-blue bag and classic tan kitten heels, give the whole outfit a look that’s at once retro and very fresh. 05 of 71 NICKY HILTON FameFlynet How to make that plaid skirt look less schoolgirl-ish? Nicky does it quite nicely, thanks to her iiJin zippered moto and pointy suede boots – balanced with a classic bag, clean face and smooth locks. 06 of 71 HILARY DUFF Robert Pitts /Landov A great camel coat goes with anything (just ask Kim Kardashian). But we especially like the way styled hers: with a classic leather skirt and white tee. She kept her accessories simple, but you could swap in something a little sparklier if you wanted to make this more holiday-ready. 07 of 71 ASHLEY MADEKWE Courtesy Ashley Madekwe Staring down those over-the-knee boots in your closet and wondering how to style them? Why not try Ashley’s take (seen on her blog) this weekend? It’s another outfit that manages to be head-snappingly sexy without revealing a thing. 08 of 71 ALESSANDRA AMBRéSIO Splash News Online We’re used to seeing her in next-to-nothing, so we did a double take when we heard that the supermodel was sporting a turtleneck, sequined skirt (by Emilio Pucci) and plain pumps. And our takeaway, once we saw the photos? Sexy isn’t an outfit, it’s a state of mind (and she’s got it). 09 of 71 EMMY ROSSUM Vladimir Labissiere/Splash News Online Sure, we may not be stepping out of the house wearing an Elie Saab dress, Louboutin flats and a Dior handbag on the regular, but when we do put our (lower-priced) version of Emmy’s look together, you can bet we’re also adding tights and gloves. 10 of 71 CAMERON DIAZ Raymond Hall/GC Images What’s the work-appropriate version of jeans and a tee? Leave it to the ever-casual to figure it out: A cozy, not-too-snug pencil skirt, soft sweater and luxe leather boots. A messy braid and bright pink lip gives a little more “oomph” to an otherwise very basic ensemble. 11 of 71 TAYLOR SWIFT NorthWoodsPix/Splash News Online “I’m going to pair an orange coat with a green sweater, maroon accessories and a bright red hat,” thought no one ever. Then they saw cute outfit (including knee-high boots from & Other Stories and Hudson jeans) and immediately gave that look another thought. 12 of 71 BELLA THORNE Splash News Online If you’re lucky enough to live in an area where the temps don’t drop below 50 degrees, you can “winterize” your wardrobe just by throwing a leather moto jacket over your favorite printed dress and adding a cool pair of pumps, like Bella does here. 13 of 71 AMAL CLOONEY AKM-GSI Sure, she’s wearing a slew of super-pricey designer pieces (Alexander McQueen python biker jacket, Balenciaga bag, Prada shades and Ash sneakers), but other half still manages to look casual and effortlessly cool. 14 of 71 JAMIE CHUNG Michael Simon/Startraks As we descend into the winter months, let this photo of Jamie remind you that it’s entirely possible to look cute even when it’s crazy-cold outside. Go for an on-trend voluminous wool coat on top, leather skinnies on the bottom and add a statement accessory like an oversize blanket scarf (hers is by Vince). 15 of 71 ALLISON WILLIAMS Michael Stewart/Getty Wearing a black turtleneck with a dark skirt and tights can make you look like a mime. But add a camel-colored coat and a bold fuchsia lip like Allison, and you’ve got an ensemble that’s anything but mute. 16 of 71 KATE BECKINSALE AKM-GSI You wouldn’t think that a leopard-print scarf would pair so well with a striped blazer, but Kate proves just that with this look, which she tops off with a structured Saint Laurent python-embossed bag. 17 of 71 REESE WITHERSPOON Josiah Kamau/BuzzFoto The has been slaying us all season with her enviable ensembles and this one is no exception. In fact, we’re asking Santa for everything she’s wearing and we even linked to each item for his online shopping convenience: Kenzo leopard print scarf, Sandro hooded coat with fur trim, Frame “Le Skinny, Saint Laurent booties and don’t forget the Ray-Ban Wayfarer shades. 18 of 71 HAILEE STEINFELD Santi/Splash News Online Coats aren’t usually the showstopper piece in an outfit, which is why it can be tricky to know what to wear with a topper that demands all the attention. But Hailee shows exactly how to tackle the task, by going mostly monotone (she tops a black and white dress with her polka-dot coat) and adding a few subtle but chic accessories, like her tri-tone bag and Jimmy Choo heels. The pink-red lip ensures attention stays on her face, not her outerwear. 19 of 71 BEYONCé Josiah Kamau/BuzzFoto/FilmMagic There’s a fine line between daring and dated when it comes to rocking vintage-style clothing, and in the hands of a mere mortal, acid-washed jeans could go horribly wrong. But successfully balances her throwback bottoms with a casual tee and an embellished leather jacket. Keeping things very 2014: Sky-high Azzedine Alaïa booties, a fur-clad Dee Ocleppo bag and a berry lip. 20 of 71 KELLY OSBOURNE Ari Perilstein/Getty No, we’re not suggesting you shave your head and/or dye your hair purple. What we are suggesting is that any do will do with a clothing combo as festive and feminine as Kelly’s here. A modest hem gives a figure-hugging pencil silhouette (like her glimmering Alice + Olivia skirt) a ladylike feel, and a jet-black top and leather jacket toughens up the sequins. 21 of 71 GWYNETH PALTROW XactpiX/Splash News Online We rarely wear our plaid button-downs with anything besides dark skinnies. But gives the boyish shirt some feminine flair by complementing her goop x Band of Outsiders top with a flared skirt. A vibrant Valentino purse and metallic-accented Saint Laurent shades punctuate the ladylike vibe. 22 of 71 AMAL CLOONEY AKM-GSI The new Mrs. George Clooney is wearing this Dolce & Gabbana dress (plus a patent tote and suede booties) to the airport. Seeing as you are not married to , feel free to continue to wear jeans and a hoodie to the airport, and save this outfit for a really fun office party. 23 of 71 BRITTANY SNOW Fortunata/Splash News Online Red and black: A classic – but expected – holiday color combo. Why not mix things up (just a little) by pairing glossy red and navy instead? The star shines in a striped MaxMara top tucked into a high-slit navy skirt, then adds some very retro touches (a Longchamp coat, Stuart Weitzman heels and structured Kate Spade New York bag) for a super-polished finish. 24 of 71 KENDALL JENNER Pacific Coast News Head-to-toe neutral tones can be super-snoozy, unless you take a cue from Kendall. She plays with texture to make her outfit pop, balancing her ribbed beige sweater with tan suede Theory pants, then keeps her accessories sleek (and lust worthy) with a mini bag and pointed white pumps. 25 of 71 JENNIFER LAWRENCE Alo Ceballos/GC Images And you can step outside of your LBD box before the holidays, too: Try a ladylike look in royal blue, as did. The color of this Mugler piece is also classic, but the plunging neckline – and her studded Christian Louboutin pumps – gives it some sex appeal. 26 of 71 ASHLEY MADEKWE Rachel Murray/Getty What are you wearing to all your holiday parties? A sparkly black dress? C’mon, you can do better than that. How about a pretty two-piece pants look like Ashley’s Elie Saab? The color is festive, but not overly so, thanks to the see-through paneling – and the star’s decision to keep her makeup minimal. 27 of 71 NIKKI REED FameFlynet Distressed denim definitely has a rugged vibe, but Nikki demonstrates how a little accessorizing can upgrade the look of your jeans by pairing her Gap pair with no less than three chic pieces: a fitted navy AllSaints coat, chain-link pocket book and pointy boots. 28 of 71 JAMIE CHUNG JCalderon/Splash News Online Cozy sweaters: Soft and sweet. Leather pants: Pretty badass. Put the two together like Jamie did (her sweater is J Brand’s “Kasia” style, and her teal coat is Rebecca Minkoff) and you’ve nailed the best day-to-night combo of the season. Freezing out? Swap in warmer booties. 29 of 71 KATHERINE HEIGL Raymond Hall/GC Images We’re going to keep telling you until you believe us: You can totally wear white well into fall – and not just winter white, either. tops her fresh white Black Halo dress with a leather jacket (which adds a coolness to the outfit, plus much needed warmth) and a boyish bag. You could even add tights to further “winterize” the ensemble. 30 of 71 KERRY WASHINGTON Dara Kushner/INF If the thought of wearing three prints at once makes you run screaming for the nearest LBD, allow to demonstrate how easy the look can be. Keeping pieces in the same color family is the key (from her Comptoir des Cotonniers jacket to her pumps, she wears a head-to-toe medley of purple, blue and white). And when it comes to accessories, the simpler, the better. 31 of 71 ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY Splash News Online Ah, the cape-and-hat combo. So warm, but so dangerously close to cowboy territory. While Western wears are on trend this season, you’ll want to balance pieces with modern solids like Rosie’s textured Zadig & Voltaire sweater and green leather pants from The Row (a fresh departure from black). 32 of 71 JENNIFER MORRISON & JAMIE CHUNG All Access Photo/Splash News Online Were you about to put away all your whites for the winter? Stop! The color has major staying power (proven by Jamie and Jennifer) as long as it’s made to look seasonally appropriate. The process is two-step: 1. contrast your ensemble with black accessories to add a touch of toughness, and 2: complete the look with a dark pout. The richer and deeper the hue, the more fall-ready you’ll be. 33 of 71 DIANE KRUGER Courtesy Diane Kruger Yes, Diane is wearing our favorite fall trend, over-the-knee boots. Yes, she is also wearing a very pretty textured sweater dress. And yes, she’s carrying the cutest mini Chanel purse on the planet. Those three things combined, plus the fact that it’s Diane Kruger, make for well, the best outfit ever. 34 of 71 OLIVIA PALERMO WENN Leave it to Olivia to make us use words like cool and waaant when describing black pants and a white top. How? By styling the classic pieces with killer accessories: multicolor shades, a black fringe bag and red flats that feature both an animal print and studs. Throwing on a non-basic coat (hers is an oversize, two-tone wool Inhabit topper) adds to the visual appeal. 35 of 71 BEYONCé Elder Ordonez/INF Your favorite night-out leather skirt is about to see the daylight, and you have outfit inspiration to thank. She picks a warm gray skirt that works with a patterned top (hers is Rails) – which gives her a low-key, sporty vibe. However, the center slit offers a sliver of sex appeal, thanks especially to that bare-leg-and-bootie thing she’s rocking. 36 of 71 LUPITA NYONG'O Can Nguyen/Rex USA It’s the dilemma many a fashionista is facing this fall: If the crop top trend is here to stay, how does one make it seasonally appropriate? Follow Lupita’s steps: 1. Pick a long-sleeve version in a hue that conjures up a feeling of autumn leaves. 2. Accessorize the look with a mix of rich tones. 3. Swipe on a berry lip. When all else fails, that’s a surefire way to say “fall.” 37 of 71 ASHLEY MADEKWE Michael Buckner/Getty We’ll admit, the on-point red lip may have a lot to do with why we love this look so much. But perfect pout aside, Ashley teaches us that jumpsuits can be totally chic if you pick a sleek design (hers is Thakoon), pair it with a fuss-free T-shirt and pop on some strappy sandals. 38 of 71 REESE WITHERSPOON FameFlynet Jeans and a T-shirt is every starlet’s go-to uniform. How’s a girl to stand out in a sea of celebrity street style? gets your attention by adding a killer pair of over-the-knee Michael Michael Kors boots (though the rest of her accessories aren’t too shabby, either). 39 of 71 KATE BOSWORTH Sharky/Splash News Online Buffalo check is experiencing a major comeback this season, and the look is more sophisticated than scoutmaster: Just check out cocoon-shaped Coach houndstooth number. Worried about going oversize? Take a cue from the star and pick a piece with piping (to add structure) and keep the rest of your look streamlined (see: her figure-hugging all-black outfit). 40 of 71 JAMIE CHUNG Michael Simon/Startraks With a bold graphic print, it’s safest to wear the pattern via just one piece and keep the rest of your ensemble neutral. But neutral doesn’t have to equal blah. Jamie knows this and she picks a subtle color in a cool silhouette on top (a slouchy Elie Tahari for DesigNation at Kohl’s moto). Those pointy-toe metallic Loeffler Randall flats don’t steal her Lovers + Friends "Tatem" skirt’s spotlight, but simply add to the fun vibe. 41 of 71 SARAH HYLAND Josiah Kamau/BuzzFoto/FilmMagic Even if you don’t want to invest in matching separates, you can give the illusion of that look by pairing pieces in the color family. In this case, that color family is white, though notice how Sarah’s Paper London crop top is a different shade than her ivory snakeskin DVF skirt – and it doesn’t feel clashing. P.S. You can never go wrong with a pair of pumps (hers are alice + olivia) that match your skin tone. 42 of 71 LOUISE ROE Courtesy Louise Roe Do you live in a part of the country where it’s still warm? Then do two things: Send us a plane ticket, and check out Louise’s way of transitioning white into fall. A silk printed bomber feels more substantial than a cardigan but more interesting than a blazer. And army-green loafers (with tassels!) let everyone know she’s embracing the season even if the temps still call for iced coffee. 43 of 71 GABRIELLE UNION MediaPunch Photos/REX USA If you wear your leather jacket practically every other day, it’s time to graduate to the next level of badassness with a leather mini. You won’t feel like you’re going to a Halloween party as an ’80s rock star as long as you stick to a black one (like this alice + olivia skirt). We’ll be wearing ours with printed tees as Gabrielle does, but we applaud her for doing leathah-on-leathah with a cream jacket. 44 of 71 OLIVIA PALERMO Dean Neville/BFAnyc/Sipa On an autumnal scale of 1 to 10, pumpkin spice lattes are an 11 and an outfit made up of a brown leather midi with a black turtleneck, ankle booties and a fur-trimmed handbag (hers is Ghurka and yes, we’re drooling over it, too) is a 10. This type of look is so classic that it pops up every fall – and every fall, we want to make it our uniform for the season. 45 of 71 MIRANDA KERR Han Myung-Gu/WireImage There’s nothing sweeter and more feminine than a pink rose print and there’s nothing more badass than a strong-shoulder leather moto jacket. But in this case, opposites attract and the result is a really well-balanced outfit that feels neither too youthful nor too edgy. If Goldilocks were a fashion critic, she’d surely say, “This look is just right.” 46 of 71 JESSICA ALBA Cooper Neill/Getty We’re officially excited for holiday party season after spotting this metallic knit Tory Burch top and skirt on . But her look doesn’t feel premature since she gives it a sleek, not Christmassy, vibe by adding opaques and black booties, plus a gold-and-pearl necklace. We’d wear it as is for nights out then get more use out of the ensemble by pairing the top with jeans or the skirt with a black tee for less formal occasions. 47 of 71 LILY ALDRIDGE Cindy Ord/Getty Pulling off allover horizontal stripes has a high level of difficulty. There are two key elements that make it work on Lily (and don’t worry, neither is “being a supermodel”). She shows a lotta leg and picks Thakoon pieces with narrow stripes on a light-colored background. 48 of 71 KENDALL JENNER Bruce Glikas/FilmMagic Think crop tops can’t withstand plunging temperatures? Think again. When the material and the color are weather-appropriate (in this case, a knit in burgundy) and what’s on bottom isn’t too summery (like Kendall’s tulip-hem high-low Sass & Bide skirt), the shrunken-tee trend becomes seasonless. If you need us, we’ll be on the floor doing crunches. 49 of 71 KATE BECKINSALE WENN You know that rule that if you’re going to wear something billowy, pair it with something fitted? didn’t listen, but her loose-on-loose-on-loose combo works because the pieces aren’t formfitting, but they are tailored. The structure of her Helmut Lang blazer and the tapered, waist-cinched silhouette of her Max Mara pants keep this out of dumpy territory. 50 of 71 OLIVIA PALERMO Timur Emek/Getty A long wool jacket with wide-leg wool pants may sound like the recipe for a pound-adding, schlumptastic outfit. Olivia miraculously makes the pairing look sleek and streamlined by picking bottoms with a waist-whittling tie and adding a crisp white button-down. 51 of 71 JESSICA HART Joe Schildhorn/BFAnyc/Sipa For those of you looking to get a little more mileage out of your summery denim, behold the power of a turtleneck! Jessica gives her faded blue skinnies an autumnal twist with a printed high-necked blouse and gilded jacket. Polished navy accessories (including an Edie Parker clutch) bring the look squarely into fall. 52 of 71 ASHLEY MADEKWE Courtesy Ashley Madekwe Here s a case where it s the styling – not the actual pieces – that makes the look. Tucking the shirt and wearing the moto over her shoulders gives the outfit a fashion “It Girl” vibe. And throwing on accessories in the same color family (a black cross-body and matching boots) only adds to the sleekness. 53 of 71 LILY COLLINS Rocky/WENN The bold print on Lily s Balmain separates borders on hypnotizing, which is why breaking it up with a solid tank and basic heels (not to mention wearing the pattern in black and white) is a stylishly savvy idea. 54 of 71 JENNIFER LOPEZ Pacific Coast News We ve always loved the polish of a white collared shirt under a crewneck sweater, and gives us a fresh way to sport the look: in dress form. Belting the layered pieces and accessorizing with badass lace-up boots balances out the primness and properness of the look. 55 of 71 OLIVIA PALERMO Michael Simon/Startraks We’ll take any opportunity to wear a sweatshirt to work and on nights out. Olivia pairs her Elie Tahari for Kohl’s top with the midi-length version of a flouncy mini and sky-high sandals, proving she’s not just the queen of high-low fashion, she’s also the queen of formal-casual fashion. (And yes, this look would work equally well if you swapped in that plain black sweatshirt you normally wear to Pilates.) 56 of 71 ROSAMUND PIKE Ray Tamarra/GC Images Nude! Nude! Nude! No, we’re not writing coverlines for a NSFW magazine, we’re just describing the actress’s look. If she’d gone with sexier silhouettes (a plunging dress, a tight moto and strappy sandals), the outfit might have seemed ridiculous, but because she wears the color that matches her skin tone via classic pieces (a Louis Vuitton sheath, a Marnie car coat and sensible ankle-strap heels), it feels chic, not overly racy. 57 of 71 VICTORIA BECKHAM John McNamara/Splash News Online Animal prints, especially when very fitted – like Balmain skirt – can enter pin-up territory really fast, but the designer smartly tames the pattern with a not-too-tight, long-sleeve black top that’s decidedly un-va-va-voom, plus understated accessories. 58 of 71 JAMIE CHUNG Courtesy Jamie Chung Ever bought a bold, patterned dress that looked great in the store, but then seemed like too much to wear out? Enter: Jamie’s solution. Like a style genius, she layers a black Twenty Tees shirt over her busy Rebecca Minkoff midi. It adds less bulk (and is more unexpected) than a blazer or cardi. She pulls it all together by using the dress tie over the top. What did we tell you? Genius! 59 of 71 AMAL ALAMUDDIN Splash News Online Occasions when this outfit works: your wedding weekend in Venice. We can’t think of many other situations that call for a wide-leg Stella McCartney suit in white, plus a coordinating hat. That said, we’d totally wear this for our post-wedding brunch then get more use out of it by breaking up the pieces and combining them with other clothing we own (the pants with a navy sweater, the top with a flippy mini, etc.). 60 of 71 KENDALL JENNER Pierre Suu/GC Images Allover plaid is intimidating. But if you’re going to do it, follow Kendall’s lead and stick to a subtle black-and-white tartan. Because, you know, if you go with a non-neutral, you might end up looking like Cher in Clueless. 61 of 71 ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY Gigi Iorio/Splash News The one and only reason to spend time looking at this photo of Rosie in Isabel Marant is to dispel your aversion to mixing navy and black. Well, actually, this photo might also serve another purpose: motivation to do more lunges and leg lifts. 62 of 71 NIKKI REED Ramey Fine, we admit it: We chose this photo for the shoes and lipstick alone. But what’s in between those two pops of red ain’t bad either. Nikki goes the classic bad-girl route in BLANKNYC jeans (how cool that they’re two-tone, right?), a striped tee, an AllSaints leather moto jacket and a She + Lo bag. Wearing the edgy ensemble with those Manolo Blahniks (as opposed to flat boots) and a red pout gives it a Sandy-at-the-end-of-Grease vibe. 63 of 71 KERRY WASHINGTON Fame Flynet If you had polka dots filed under the “prints that feel too childish” folder, it’s time to reconsider the print. Here are three aspects of Preen dress that make it sophisticated and age-appropriate (keep these in mind when shopping for the pattern): an artsy take on the print (notice how the spots aren’t uniform), color-blocking (it keeps it in fashiony, not kiddie, territory) and accessories that are more bold than sweet (we’d say her Thalé Blanc clutch and Christian Louboutins fit the bill). 64 of 71 JENNIFER LOPEZ Splash News Online Leave it to to make denim-on-denim totally sexy. You probably don’t need us to tell you her secret, but we’ll spell it out anyway: Keep everything fitted as she does, from her slim-fitting Mother Denim button-down to her curve-flaunting J Brand skinnies. Leg-lengthening nude pumps don’t hurt either. 65 of 71 KATE HUDSON Splash News Online When we think of stunning power suits for women, the word fitted often comes to mind (see: previous slide). But eschews that notion with an oversize Atea Oceanie blazer and coordinating wide-leg pants. So, why does it still read as polished and feminine? Because it’s roomy, but tailored – as opposed to shapeless – plus, she adds chic accessories. 66 of 71 DEMI MOORE Alessio Botticelli/GC Images Next time you’re going somewhere that calls for an LBD, consider swapping in an LBS. sleek suit doesn’t feel masculine at all thanks to the fit and of course, her half-unbuttoned white blouse. Even if you can’t afford her Saint Laurent version, this is one case where the look for less is seriously easy to find. 67 of 71 OLIVIA PALERMO Santi/Splash News Online Allover gray can feel like a tonal washout, but you know what? We didn’t even fully process that this was a gray-on-gray outfit because we were too busy noticing the little details: the flippy hem on the skirt, the slouchiness of the top and, of course, the fringed bag (all CH Carolina Herrera) plus those lace-up Aquazzura heels. 68 of 71 EMMY ROSSUM Splash News Online Emmy answers two questions: How do I elevate this basic black tank and how do I keep this floral skirt from feeling too loud? She pairs the two (notice how the top matches the petals on the midi) and adds a matching sky-blue shoulder bag and simple Asos heels. 69 of 71 JAMIE CHUNG Splash News Online Jamie will see your one pop of color and raise you two. She mixes tangerine, hot pink and fuchsia and somehow it all works. (Somehow=no crazy jewelry or other big accessories.) 70 of 71 GWYNETH PALTROW Layne Murdoch Jr./Getty Both and Monique Lhuillier have enviable outfits at the star’s Goop boutique opening in Dallas, but it’s the movie star’s look we dare you to try. The one-shoulder jumpsuit, sparkly-heeled pumps and unexpected Jennifer Meyer turquoise danglers all add up to a flattering, and subtly spirited, ensemble. 71 of 71 JESSICA ALBA FameFlynet Another example of a celeb zhushing up a white top and black skirt. adds a blush Rebecca Minkoff moto jacket (black or gray would do, too, if that’s what you’ve got) and Carven X Ancient Greek Sandals flats.
