Posh in Pink: Joan Small's Shearling Coat and Suede Boot Look for Less

Joan Smalls Look for Less
The ombré trend is still in full swing and my favorite way to style it is by focussing on one statement item and coordinating the rest of my ensemble to accent the softer tones.

Here, Joan Smalls highlights her scarf by pairing it with matching shades of cream and light pink. Joan styled the piece with a luxe faux fur coat, bootcut pants, a cropped ribbed sweater, boot, mirrored sunglasses and a black cross body bag. I love the simplicity of a neutral background that emphasizes and coordinates with one key piece.

This soft pink hue is my favorite for winter, it's not too pink to be considered a pastel spring shade and reminds me of Pantone's Rose Quartz Color of the Year 2016. Read on to shop my finds styled to coordinate with the Merona Pink Scarf from Target for only $5.23!

Sofia Richie Look for Less
It's no secret that fashion cycles through trends inspired by previous decades, but this year was by far my favorite. I loved seeing a resurgence of '90s and early '00s fashion trends — styles that I was obsessed with growing up.

Sharon Stone Look for Less
I love mixing up my style on a daily basis. One day I'll feel like going glam, the next I'm all about style with an edge.

Sharon Stone does the same by mixing elements of multiple styles into one cohesive look. Sharon paired a black leather moto jacket with a white tunic, distressed boyfriend jeans and western black booties. For accessories, the star added a coordinating fedora, leather satchel, scarf belt and gold tassel lariat necklace.

The jacket, top and jeans are great wardrobe staples and by swapping out hat, handbag and jewelry styles you can customize this outfit to your taste and create multiple looks. Shop my picks below, including my favorite leather jacket from H&M and other great finds for under $100!

Luxe in Lace-Ups: Rita Ora's Faux Fur Coat and Leather Pant Look for Less

Rita Ora Look for Less
Faux fur is a major style must-have this season and with so many options for colors and silhouettes, it's easy to take this trend and make it your own!

Rita Ora styled a two-toned shag coat with a white bishop-sleeved blouse, black leather lace-up trousers, leather boots, round aviator sunglasses and stacked bangles. The ombre color of the coat is a great way to update the traditional look of natural fur and I love that the neutral tone doesn't distract from the detailing on her pants.

Read on to find out where to shop my style steals and recreate Rita Ora's look. Plus, let me know what style of faux fur you're loving for the season in the comments section below.
