Famous people can show us how to get the most from fashion day in day out. They are permitted access to the season’s most up-to-date pieces and pair them up with eye-catching accessories resulting in stunning looks no matter what the occasion is. The advantage to us is we can watch them to learn how to emulate these stunning ensembles and you won’t find it difficult to find similar styles at a more affordable price.

A-lister Jennifer Aniston is definitely known for one particular fashion statement this year — Espadrilles: lovely lightweight footwear boasting a striking wedge-like heel made of natural materials. They have a strong shape and are offered in a range of fabrics that match anything. They work with jeans, floaty dresses, shorts, denims, and pretty much everything else.

Jessica Alba is setting new trends this season as well. She and her husband Cash Warren have been out-and-about in adorable sweatpant denims. These not only look great but they’re easy to wear and flattering besides. She’s also been seen in 7 For All Mankind denim, which is a cult label that’s been taking fashion by storm this summer. Her Ballerinas by Roger Vivier are absolutely fabulous as well.

Fashionistas are never without their LBDs (little black dresses), and from watching Scarlett Johansen, we know they are still a fashionable garment to wear this season. Accessorizing well is the trick to bringing a plain outfit up to date. They look stunning with a black handbag, suede boots and a bold piece of diamante jewelry, or you could be adventurous and try some brightly colored accessories.

Who can ignore how fabulous Ginnifer Goodwin was in her recent film Something Borrowed? Of particular interest were the simple skirts that imparted a casual elegance to her bright cotton t shirts. Her neutral skirt showed off her femininity, but even so, it lent an aura of authority and strength. When she required a slightly more feminine look, she could often be seen wearing pleated skirts . For young women on the run who like comfortable clothes, she’s definitely a celebrity to look out for.

On the whole, this season, practicality and high fashion are no longer mutually exclusive, a welcome relief for active women. So mix and match these items to look great, feel like a million bucks, and make those celebrities jealous.
