Style Your Track Pants Like Supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Rosie Huntington Whiteley wears track pants with heels and a blazer.
With a crisp blazer and strappy heels, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley shows us the fashion-forward way to wear track pants in this sleek outfit she sported a few months back at LAX.

By keeping the palette neutral and the accessories simple, she's convinced me that you could wear wide leg track pants to the office or a cocktail party, making these a versatile wardrobe addition. I could even picture the supermodel wearing this elevated athleisure outfit with her current baby bump!

I was so excited to find this near identical pair of pants at Express (on sale!) - and even more excited to see how blogger Sydne Summer wore her pair with a white blouse and blazer! If you love the look, read on to get all the pieces, each under $100...

Jessica Alba Proves That a Striped Tee & Jeans Never Go Out of Style

Jessica Alba striped top and white blazer look for less
Jessica Alba arrived in stripes and high crop jeans for a late night bite at Craig's in West Hollywood.

A white longline blazer and black pumps elevate this look from day to night. I love how a few simple switches can totally change up the feel of your favorite basics!

I'm also loving Jessica's graphic black and white bag that ties into the minimal yet bold color palette of her outfit, plus those hoop earrings for a little sparkle. Simple yet so good!

Hilary Duff's Black Maxi Skirt and Ancient Greek Sandals Look for Less

Hilary Duff has the best mom-on-the-go style in her black maxi skirt and Ancient Greek sandals.
Hilary Duff looked cool and casual in her marled grey sweater, black maxi skirt and 'Eleftheria' sandals by Ancient Greek Sandals ($250, shopbop.com) as she took her son Luca out for the day.

I'm loving her mom-on-the-go outfit that doesn't sacrifice style for comfort! So often I fall into the jeans-and-t-shirt rut, but I'm definitely going to seek out a jersey maxi skirt like Hilary's for spring and summer.

I'm also seriously in love with her Ancient Greek sandals - they're so simple yet so chic! I found a good lookalike under $100 by Steve Madden in genuine leather but if you want to spring for the real deal, by all means please do!

How to Wear Camo Pants

Julianne Hough's camo pants and graphic tee look for less is a cute and casual look to try.
Julianne Hough looked edgy yet effortless in her camo skinny jeans, graphic "C'est La Vie" t-shirt and black accessories while traveling through LAX.

This look is actually a couple years old but I think the styling is still on-point for today. I've updated the tee with a "Fashion stole my smile" t-shirt which Victoria Beckham recently wore (and is currently sold out) - but knockoffs abound!

Then I linked up the most perfect pair of camo pants under $30 at Target, a cozy neutral cardigan and all the finishing touches from aviators to ankle boots that never seem to go out of style.
