Olivia Palermo's Leopard Clutch, Oxford Shoes, and Ruffle Blouse Look for Less

Olivia Palermo Leopard Clutch, Oxfords and White Blouse Look for Less
We still want leopard everything, and Olivia Palermo is only feeding that obsession with this printed clutch! You'd think it would be the highlight of the look, but she's just way too good at nailing chic from head to toe. A sophisticated black coat and trousers is spiced up with the ruffle detail on her white blouse, plus a pair of spiffy black oxford shoes to match. Olivia also picks the perfect hair & beauty looks to compliment her looks, this time pulling her hair back into a middle part bun and a seductive, smokey eye.



Emily Ratajkowski's Brown Suit, Turtleneck, and Red Crossbody Look for Less

Emily Ratajkowski Brown Suit Red Bag Look for Less
Model Emily Ratajkowski sports a menswear look with a matching brown blazer and pants and a tan turtleneck to keep the earthy color wave going. Really makes the red boxy crossbody pop! A good tip to take from her is the strappy metallic pumps - this breaks up the solid, warm colors and gives the outfit a little touch of femininity and spunk. Make your eyes standout too with metallic eyeshadow or mousse; Emily chose a shiny orange hue that compliments the color palette she has going on.



Kendall Jenner's Blazer, Pumps, and Round Snake Earrings Look for Less

Kendall Jenner Blazer and Pumps Look for Less
Not many are brave enough to try rocking a blazer as a dress, but we're inspired to show some skin (in a tasteful way, of course) with this simple, yet sleek head-turning outfit from Kendall Jenner. She pairs her shiny rust Blazé Milano blazer with pointed-toe Stuart Weitzman pumps for a classy night-on-the-town look. But it wouldn't be a Jenner look without at least a hint of edginess to it, and her gold snake earrings do just the trick. We love that she pulled her hair back into a sleek bun or ponytail to show them off!



Alessandra Ambrosio's Acne Jacket, Rust Sweaterdress and Lace-Up Boots Look for Less

Alessandra Ambrosio in Acne Velocite Jacket look for less
Leave it to Alessandra Ambrosio to make a sweaterdress sizzle on a snowy NYC day! We love how she paired her rust-hued mini dress with lace-up boots and her favorite Acne 'Velocite' Shearling Jacket. This jacket is still super popular, and luckily there are a lot of good dupes, including this one under $100 on Amazon. Compared to the $2,700 pricetag on the designer jacket, we'll take the budget find any day!



Look for Less: Gwyneth Paltrow at Her Book Signing in Fendi Logo Boots, Wide Leg Pants, and Turtleneck Sweater

Gwyneth Paltrow Fendi Boots and Wide Leg Pants Look for Less
Gwyneth Paltrow's new book, The Clean Plate, was released last month and we are loving her outfit just as much as her recipes! At a Barnes & Noble book signing in LA last month, Gwyneth paired an oversized turtleneck sweater with wide leg pants - cuffed, we might add, to show off those funky western-style Fendi logo boots. We personally can't wait to start wearing boots of this style during spring and paring them with skinny jeans or even midi dresses/skirts. Gwyneth keeps things simple with a small bracelet and a fit bit, which is quite fitting for the theme of her book. With beautiful blonde tresses like that, who needs accessories?
