Throwback Thursday: Lauren Conrad's Floral Blouse and Liquid Leggings Look for Less

Nothing could be more fitting for this week's Throwback Thursday Look for Less than Lauren Conrad's floral look from 2011. Perfect for this spring, Lauren paired a printed blouse with a pair of liquid leggings, camel booties and handbag, and a pearl choker necklace. I love all of the style influences that I am seeing in this one look. It's feminine and playful because of the florals and pearls, edgy from the addition of leather and a bit bohemian thanks to the use of cognac in her shoes and bag. I never would have styled these items together, but leave it to Lauren to show us that opposite styles attract! Read on to see my finds and get her look for less...

Reese Witherspoon Navy Skirt and White Blazer Look for Less
Showcasing her latest Draper James pieces for spring, Reese Witherspoon stepped out in this darling blue and white ensemble that offers a fresh take on the color combination. Reese paired her Draper James Scallop Blazer ($250) and Margaret Solid Skirt ($165) with a coordinating navy top, layered over a printed button up, with bright cerulean pumps, playful 'Totes Y'all' Vanderbilt Tote ($185), round sunnies and a gold watch. I love seeing blue and white in a non-nautical look for spring — it's so fresh and the contrast of the collared shirt and shoes add a fun twist to the navy ensemble.

Chic in Chartreuse: Jamie Chung's Colorful Cardigan and Black Leather Skirt Look for Less

Jamie Chung Green Cardigan Black Skirt
Take a style cue from Jamie Chung and embrace the warmer weather with a bright pop of color and leg-baring styles. The star wore a Zadig & Voltaire leather skirt and chartreuse cardigan paired with a plunging black tank and simple black accessories to celebrate the opening of the initial Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH Manhattan location, featuring the first-ever Gilt shop, at an exclusive launch event in NYC. Jamie's caged sandals and skinny scarf are what make this outfit for me - the caged sandals add a touch of edge and elongate her legs, while the seventies-inspired scarf is on-trend for spring.

Classic Cool: Nicky Hilton Rothschild's Camel Coat and White Sneakers Look for Less

Nicky Hilton Rothschild Camel Coat Sneakers Look for Less
It may be March, but there's still time before we fully transition into flowy skirts and capris for spring. Nicky Hilton Rothschild delivers the perfect outfit for the last chilly moments of winter with her latest ensemble. Nicky pairs a classic camel coat with a slouchy black turtleneck, matching skinnies, retro sunglasses, a structured satchel and crisp white sneakers. I am obsessed with how Nicky has styled this look with these shoes. Nicky's pair of adidas Stan Smith Originals ($75) have been seen in countless street style photos and are having a major moment as the must-have pair of kicks for models off-duty.
