catDeeleyPatternedJumpsuitLookforLess
Rompers and jumpsuits bring warmer months to mind, but Cat Deeley shows us how simple layering can make these closet staples wearable whenever. The TV personality stepped out in her Ella Moss Wanderlust Crossfront Jumpsuit ($230), pairing it with a fitted navy blazer, a large leather crossbody, strappy heeled sandals and dark brown aviator sunnies. I love the bright, bold patterning of the Ella Moss design and the heels are a must-have, adding length when paired with the skinny style of the pant leg. In this recreation we made sure the romper was still the focal point of the ensemble, making sure that our look focused on a similar wrap style and bold pattern.

Reese Witherspoon Look for Less
The upcoming spring season brings two things to mind: floral patterns and pops of bright colors. Reese Witherspoon got a head start on these trends with her latest outfit featuring Draper James Cloister Printed Top ($165). She paired the graphic shell with an edgy leather jacket with quilted accents, ankle-grazing jeans, cat-eye sunglasses, hoops, a watch, color-coordinated pumps and Draper James Saffiano Lady Satchel ($250). I love the repeated fuchsia tones throughout the outfit and in this recreation I've kept the look almost exact, using a similarly printed dolman and hot pink accessories.

Reese Witherspoon is bringing back sophisticated statement pieces in a major way! America's sweetheart paired a fitted tweed jacket with a collared top, slim ankle jeans, emerald heels, navy tote and stunning accessories - including the super cute Draper James Horseshoe Key Fob ($38). My favorite piece from this look is definitely the cream colored tweed jacket, perfect for the upcoming spring weather.

Throwback Thursday: Kerry Washington's Black Top and Leather Midi Look for Less

Kerry Washington Look for Less
Fashion flashback! I'm in love with Kerry Washington's minimalist look...and though she rocked this outfit in 2012, it's just as trendy today. Leather is making a huge comeback and my favorite way to incorporate this fabric is with a sophisticated midi skirt that just grazes the knee. Kerry paired her midi with a stunning gold belt, nylon tote, black tee and leather pumps. This ensemble is amazing head-to-toe, but I wanted to update the silhouette a bit by swapping Kerry's scoop neck tee with a turtleneck sweater, perfect for winter wear.
