Margot Robbie is a Retro Cutie in Polka Dots

Margot Robbie looks chic in a retro-minded polka dot dress and modern white sneakers.
Margot Robbie wore the cutest polka dot shirt dress as she arrived at LAX Airport a couple months back, but I thought this was the perfect Memorial Day look to wear right now. I'm pretty sure polka-dots never go out of style. Neither do shirt dresses. Put the two together and you have a match made in fashion heaven.

Add some modern white sneakers and a girl-next-door pony tail and you have just about the sweetest look around. I found an H&M wrap dress that looks identical to Margot's plus another amazing lookalike in case your size is sold out - I tried it on a couple weeks ago and now I think I'll have to go back and get it!

Jourdan Dunn is Statuesque in Striped Pants

Jourdan Dunn wears vertical stripe pants with an oversized denim jacket and sneakers.
British supermodel Jourdan Dunn made a stylish entrance in vertical stripe pants, a black bodysuit, and oversized denim jacket as she arrived at Nice Airport France on her way to the 70th Cannes Film Festival.

I love how the model plays with proportions in this look, from the wide leg pants to the sleek bodysuit top, to the boxy jacket with exaggerated sleeves.

I also love her choice of a graphic black and white color palette - so good for summer! She finishes the look with sporty yet sleek black patent sneakers, and retro top-frame sunglasses which we're seeing everywhere lately.

Really, is there anything not to love about Jourdan's look?! Steal her vibes with the affordable fashion finds below...

Nicky Hilton's Camel Coat and Converse Sneakers Look for Less

Nicky Hilton wears a camel coat and white Converse while out and about in New York City.
Yesterday was downright frigid here in Connecticut, so Nicky Hilton's camel coat and Converse is definitely seasonally appropriate.

The star kept warm while out and about in New York while harkening to spring with her lighter wash skinny jeans and on-trend white sneakers.

You could either pull your wool coat out of hibernation to recreate this look, or update it for spring with a must-have classic trench coat instead.

All my finds are under $50, including Nicky's shoes, so I added a "splurge" handbag because it's way less that her designer bag and totally worth the investment to elevate all your outfits!
