Simple in Serenity: Taylor Swift's Boatneck Sweater and Black Jeans Look for Less

Taylor Swift Look for Less
One of Pantone's 2016 Colors of the Year, Serenity, a pastel cornflower blue is the perfect shade for the spring season. In this look Taylor Swift shows us how to add a little edge to the trend using a minimalistic approach. The singer paired the boatneck cable-knit sweater with black skinny jeans, leather booties, a chic structured handbag and a classic red lip. I love the simplicity of this look, it's so clean and understated but the black pieces make the blue shade pop and the contrast of her signature lip is the icing on the cake.

Reese Witherspoon Look for Less
The upcoming spring season brings two things to mind: floral patterns and pops of bright colors. Reese Witherspoon got a head start on these trends with her latest outfit featuring Draper James Cloister Printed Top ($165). She paired the graphic shell with an edgy leather jacket with quilted accents, ankle-grazing jeans, cat-eye sunglasses, hoops, a watch, color-coordinated pumps and Draper James Saffiano Lady Satchel ($250). I love the repeated fuchsia tones throughout the outfit and in this recreation I've kept the look almost exact, using a similarly printed dolman and hot pink accessories.
