Floral Flare: Jamie Chung's Sheer Neck-Tie Blouse and Black Pant Look for Less

Florals are nothing new for spring, but the classic print always looks fresh. Jamie Chung added a touch of edge to her sheer flower-printed button-up by pairing it with a pair of high-waisted black flares, a riveted bucket handbag, mirrored sunglasses, a sheer pink lip and python lace-up pumps. I'm obsessed with the contrast between the hard metal accents and leather, and the feminine details of the flowy blouse and the bright pop of pink. Jamie's original top is Paige Denim 'Marilee' Chiffon Tie-Neck Blouse ($219) and is still in stock, but for our readers we have found the perfect look-a-like for just $48.30.

Take a style cue from Olivia Palermo who paired her top with darker wash distressed jeans, a patterned jacquard coat, blushed nude pointed pumps, a gold bangle and a jeweled clutch. I love this take on classic pieces, typically I would stray from matching two jean pieces but this combo looks amazing. Such a fresh idea for spring! Also perfect for spring is Olivia's rosy terracotta lip, it makes a bold statement but it isn't too dramatic and I've found the perfect match from ColourPop Cosmetics.

Green Acres: Diane Kruger's Black Overall and Floral Silk Scarf Look for Less

Country girl meets city chic in this latest look from Diane Kruger. The actress paired her black denim overalls with a simple white tee, floral silk scarf, platform sneakers, square sunglasses and a chain-strap crossbody. Diane also kept a camel peacoat close just in case the weather got a little chilly, because let's face it the spring weather can be extremely unpredictable. The overalls trend can be daunting and you really have to pair it with carefully selected pieces in order to avoid that farmer vibe. Diane accomplishes this through her shoes and glasses, which keep the look playful and trendy, while her scarf and coat offer an added bonus element of sophistication. Read on to score my look-a-like finds for these pieces and get the rest of Diane's look for less.
