Who doesn’t love to see a celebrity wearing something you can actually afford? Take this maxi dress Rihanna was just photographed wearing: it’s only $57.49 at ASOS!

Since you can already tell the dress has a high-cut front from the above picture, check out the low-cut back:

Sexy!

Catherine Deneuve is a huge fashion inspiration for me. Have I ever seen one of the unstudied, classic French-girl outfits from her past and not wanted to copy it immediately? Uh, no. This elegant black sundress with the crossed straps is the perfect example!

From big to small and bright to neutral, retro polka dots seem to be popping up everywhere – and on everything. I have to say I’m more drawn to the pieces that play-up this print’s 1950’s roots, like the J.Crew one-piece bathing suit below. What do you think of its sudden resurgence?

First off, if you are getting married – Congratulations! I’m pretty sure that these two things are the most exciting, yet most complicated, areas for a bride-to-be, no?

Step 1: Find the dress.

Step 2: Figure out what in the world to wear with it.

There are just so many choices! Do you want vintage shoes or modern stilettos? Delicate jewelry or one statement piece? The options are endless, and we all know accessories (and makeup!) are ultimately what set the tone of your entire look. In the hopes of relieving a little bit of that pressure, here are a few of my favorite bridal accessories for during the ceremony… and after :) Enjoy!

It doesn’t get any more classic than black and cream. And this monochromatic pairing is definitely having a moment: whether you wear it as a print, stripe or subtle trim. Think of it as the perfect jumping off point for whatever color you want to experiment with… like bright coral or turquoise. Or just keep it simple with subtle black+cream pairings in different textures or fabrics. Here are few key pieces to get you started:

Cargo pants aren’t exactly fashion news. Yet when worn in one of the new, slimmer cuts and paired with the right footwear, they go in a whole new direction that’s both alluring and completely fresh. Cargo pants with a substantial suede heel. And lace-up wedges like these are especially great. They make your legs look longer, while the comfy, rubber-crepe sole lets you walk for miles.

Sometimes I think I could live in one of these to-the-floor dresses. They’re dramatic, easy and just so comfortable. And now, the style that was once the center of the boho-chic movement has weaseled its way into every other trend on the market right now—from laidback eveningwear to deconstructed preppy. Here are a few of my favorite maxi dresses, in its many iterations.

It’s Friday night. You’re going out. You want to get dressed up, but not that dressed up. Understand the sentiment, but confused about how to pull it off? Me too! But clearly Rachel Roy gets it. Check out her gutsy pairing of a beaded cocktail dress with an acid wash denim jacket.

There’s really no other word for it, but cool. Her accessories play a key role in making this outfit work. By choosing a dressy, but not statement-making bag jewelry and shoes, Rachel keeps all the attention on her perfectly contrasted dress and jacket. Here’s what you need to give this daring look a whirl.
