Wide-Leg Lovely: Victoria Beckham's Tuxedo Pants and White Shirt Look for Less

Victoria Beckham's wide leg pants and white shirt look for less
Victoria Beckham was photographed leaving the Martinez Hotel during the 69th Cannes Film Festival in a super sophisticated black and white look featuring an oversized white shirt tucked into wide-leg tuxedo pants. She finished the look in what we are guessing are some sort of platform heels, a black leather saddle bag, chunky gold chain bracelet, and oversized shades. Everything about this look exudes confidence, from the restrained black and white color palette to her sleek ponytail hairstyle. I'm not sure I ever look this put together but I'm taking notes!

Celebs Step Out in REED for Kohl's

Celebs in Reed for Kohl's
Chanel Iman, Emma Roberts and Solange Knowles wore fashions from the new REED x Kohl’s collection for a dinner celebrating the launch earlier this month. I have yet to check out the collection in person but I recommend reading this review by my friend The Recessionista. Chanel Iman's jumpsuit look has to be my favorite. The bags resemble Reed Krakoff's signature designs, and are made from technical leather (a high quality vegan leather). Have you shopped REED x Kohl's yet? What did you think? Read on to shop the exact three looks above...

Boho Chic: Lea Michele's Peasant Blouse and Slide Sandals Look for Less

Lea Michele casual outfit idea featuring paisley boho blouse, denim cut-offs and slide sandals
Lea Michele is ready for summer in her flowy paisley top and denim cut-offs. She's following a smart rule of thumb for summer dressing: If you're bare on the bottom, wear a top that's slightly more covered up, and vice versa. The boho trend is always back for warmer months and it's so easy to pull off. I like how Lea opted for sleek leather slide sandals and a streamlined tote bag to accessorize her look rather than more boho elements (like fringe) which could start to be a bit much. She strikes the perfect balance, and we've got her complete outfit style steal starting at just $4.90...

Shades of Blue: Sienna Miller's Wide Leg Pants and Mules Look for Less

Love Sienna Miller fashion style? Try her blue high waist pants and mules look for less
Sienna Miller looked chic in her high-waisted wide-leg pants with sky blue mules as she strolled around SoHo. I love the mix of blue neutrals in this smart casual look; so often I resort to black and gray for my neutral base that I forget about blue. Sienna shows us just how easy it is to wear the high-waist wide leg pant trend, too, opting for a simple gray 3/4-length tee to offset the bold bottoms, and a bright blue mule to amp things up. I never thought I'd find a look for less option for those shoes but then I spotted the Nino mule by Topshop - a steal at $100 and so fun yet comfy for spring! They're also available in pink if that's your preference. Read on for the complete look for less plus more wide-leg pant inspiration you may have missed...
