Looks for Less – Going for Baroque

May 4th // Comment Here

Hollywood costume designer Louise Mengenbach, the fabulous Hollywood costume designer (X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Starsky & Hutch, etc.) insists that shoes, like lamps, should always be your wild card. Louise probably hobbles around everywhere on 5-inch stilettos and owns not a single pair of sensible shoes, but I see her point. No matter how predictable the rest of your outfit (or home décor), a pair of shoes (or lamps) that flies off the style charts will elevate the whole look in an instant. Exhibit A: Beyonce Knowles working Louis Vuitton’s new Spicy sandal/stiletto.

Are you loving these shoes like I am? How would you make them work?

Oh, and don’t forget to check out Beyonce in the movie, Obsessed, which is currently at the box office right now.

Lots of love,
Loren

Looks for Less – Mickey Rourke

March 4th // Comment Here

Even though you might not be able to pull off his moves in the ring as Randy ‘The Ram’ Robinson in his movie, The Wrestler, you can still get Mickey Rourke’s celebrity look for less even on a budget!

With his mix-and-match style, with a touch of various grays, blacks and white (and some tint to go with his shades), I’ve got to admit, Mickey’s got style!

To get his look for less, without pulling a ‘ram jam’ on any stylist in the vicinity, get the scoop on how you can get his celebrity looks after the jump!

For starters, you can pick-up a a Joker make-up kit to get Mickey’s unkempt hair for $10.

Over on eBay, I managed to find Oakley’s classic Frogskin sunglasses (which come in a variety of colored frames and lense tints) for around $35.

Micro Twill Blazer from Urban Outfitters
Micro Twill Blazer available at Urban Outfitters for $50


Fleur de Lis belt from Urban Outfitters for $28


O.H.H.A. Men’s white stripe dress shirt for $24 at Overstock.com


Piattelli White Black Silk Tuxedo Scarf, which can be found at Decalo Fashion or even on eBay for $35 (retails for $85).


Pick-up a pair on non-seasonal sharkskin pants by Domani for $30 at Overstock.com


Lastly, slip on of Calvin Klein Elkan’s available from Piperlime for a cool $83 on sale!

So while you may not have Rourke’s bank or even his sex appeal. You can skip the wrestler unitard and get his hot look for just under $300 (skipping the hair can save $10). And there you have it, Mickey Rourke’s celebrity look…for less!

Love,
Loren

Looks For Less – Katherine Heigl

January 20th // Comment Here

Katherine Heigl was spotted out-and-about Hollywood last Monday looking very chic indeed! Not unlike her fellow Grey’s Anatomy co-star, Patrick Dempsey; this T.V. star exudes classy confidence both on and off screen. Copy Katherine’s entire look, for less here.

 

For Katherine’s look, be sure to buy the cardigan a size or two larger than you’d normally wear, and don’t be afraid to experiment with color!  The animal print flats and yellow handbag work well with any of the cardigans featured above.  Keep accessories minimal on this one.

Lots of Love,
Loren

Looks For Less – Jennifer Aniston

January 13th // 5 Comments

\I’ve always been a fan of Jennifer Aniston’s style. She’s the quintessential California girl with her clean, simple, and chic fashion sense. Solid colors, cashmere, and great-fitting jeans are all part of the Marley & Me star’s wardrobe repertoire, and as you can see; it shouldn’t cost a fortune to look like a million bucks!
