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...

Transitional Trend: Olivia Palermo's Faux-Fur Coat and Leather Pants Look for Less

Olivia Palermo Silk Scarf Fur Coat
Fur pieces were a staple in fall and winter fashion and as we transition into spring the trend is continuing to pop up, this time paired with cropped pants and shorter skirts. Olivia Palermo modeled the technique at Paris Fashion Week, by styling her faux-fur coat with cropped leather trousers, a black chiffon blouse, stiletto boots, cat eye sunglasses and bright accessories. I love the versatility that this pairing offers for all-season wear. Plus, the pops of color and contrast between the blue and yellow in this look make it a must-have. Read on to get Olivia's look for less and grab the perfect silk scarf for spring!
