Chrissy Teigen Shines in a Satin Duster for Date Night

Chrissy Teigen steps out in a burgundy satin duster, ripped jeans and clear strap heels.
Chrissy Teigen is giving us major outfit envy in her burgundy satin duster, distressed jeans and clear-strap heels.

And let's not forget her gorgeous Celine bag in a matching deep red hue, must-have Gucci belt and oversized aviator sunglasses.

She's hitting all the right fashion notes, and we're pretending we're an ounce as cool as the supermodel with these look for less finds, all under $50 - except for the translucent heels by Steve Madden, which cost a bit more but are worth it. You don't want to skimp on a clear plastic shoe since this trend can easily go horribly wrong if you're not careful with your edit.

Summer Date Night Outfit Idea

Eva Longoria wears a coral blouse with white pants.
Eva Longoria wore a coral blouse with white pants for a dinner date with husband Jose Baston in Madrid.

She accessorized with the cutest strappy black heels and a black clutch (not visible from this angle).

I added some on-trend tassel drop earrings to give this look a little something extra and make it more fashion-blogger-esque.

Chrissy Teigen shows us how to do the the pajama trend right with a half-tucked silk shirt and distressed skinny jeans.

The supermodel opted for her Frame pinstripe silk pajama shirt ($275) in neutral white, but you could just as easily go bold with this printed satin pajama-style shirt by J.Crew, now an extra 30% off the sale price with code BIGSALE.

Just finish the look with bottoms that are obviously not meant for the boudoir and heels to elevate the look. Shop my under-$100 picks below...

Jourdan Dunn's Off-the-Shoulder Top and Fringe Jeans Look for Less

Jourdan Dunn pairs a navy off-the-shoulder top with fringe jeans and a yellow satchel.
I'm loving this outfit inspiration from model Jourdan Dunn, who wore a navy off-the-shoulder top with fringe jeans for a fashion shoot back in January.

Jourdan Dunn pairs a navy off-the-shoulder top with fringe jeans and a yellow satchel.
She carried a bright yellow dome satchel that complements the navy blue of the top so well, and then finished with a neutral ankle bootie that's anything but boring with it's stiletto heel and edgy gladiator styling.

I found a lookalike top for only $10 at SheIn, which literally has hundreds of off-the-shoulder tops to choose from! Quality may be hit or miss but at these rock-bottom prices, it's an irresistible way to get in on this trend.

Since block heels are having a moment (and are so much easier to walk in), I chose this Sole Society shoe for the look for less, but this heel by Jessica Simpson is a great lookalike with maj sex appeal - and it's under $100!

My Recent Buys:


I got the spring mailer from Payless this week with a 25% off coupon, so I went a little crazy and ordered four pairs of shoes: The
Nikolle Low Heel Slide in black, the Naomi Block Heel in natural, the bright fuchsia Dottie D'Orsay Knot Flat, and the Tasha Chopout Block Heel. I'm not sure I'll keep all of them but my grand total was just $83.71 shipped!

Then, I went nuts at Sole Society and ordered the Korah Crossbody in dusty rose, the blush combo Rowen, and the cognac Jolene (Chloe vibes!) I normally carry a backpack and haven't bought a new bag in ages since I'm usually just toting around stuff for the kiddos but I wanted to up my handbag game for spring! I may not keep all of them, we'll see. I'll keep you posted.
