Dress Like the Stars: Alternative Fashion Guide to Dressing Like A Celebrity [PHOTOS]
Dress like Katy Perry, J.Lo, Kristen Stewart, Mila Kunis, Lindsay Lohan, and even Lady Gaga!
Tired of always saying "that's too expensive" when looking at what the stars wore? With these cheaper alternatives, anyone can whip up a look that's chic enough for the red carpet.
Katy Perry - Little Blue Dress
Katy Perry is known for her bright ensembles and stage outfits, but ladies can learn a thing or two from the pop star when it comes to cocktail dresses. Navy blue is not only a hot color that's trending nowadays; the hue is also known for its slimming properties, especially when under bright lights. If you really want to splurge on a dress for a special occasion, the Alexander McQueen Wool-Silk Knit Dress or the Marchesa Strapless Print Ruche Lace Dress is perfect to hide unwanted curves and stay classy at the same time. If under budget, the cute Navy Star Flare Dress by Dorothy Perkins or the Parker Polka Ruffle Dress is the right combination of fun and glam fit for any occasion.
Jennifer Lopez - Casual Safari
Jennifer Lopez has a chic-yet-sultry style that makes her one of the sexiest women on the planet. You can mimic J.Lo's style with leopard prints. This Stiletto Jean by Current/Eliott ($198) has a faded finish that's modern and trendy without being tacky. The $90 leopard print heels from Chinese Laundry is any lady's best bet to be Jennifer Lopez - it adds height and has a sheer overlap for a girly and sexy look. An oversized sweater paired with any cheap leggings screams "casual J.Lo", and the cute doll shoes from Siren Shoes (sirenshoes.com.au) finishes any J.Lo-inspired look with a dainty twist.
Kristen Stewart - Office Chic
The Twilight actress usually dresses like a rockstar, but in this photo from InStyle magazine's 2008 editorial, she is seen in calm hues and simple silhouettes that work great for any day at the office. Pair a sheer soft-colored button shirt like this $66 Unif Utility Shirt with a tailored white blazer and pants. These $100 ecru blazer from Mango and £30 trousers from Dorothy Perkins are great investments that you can mix and match for different professional looks. Finish your Kristen Stewart-inspired look with Vivienne Westwood Three- Strap Elevated Shoes for only $86 and a leather clutch from Topshop.
Lady Gaga - Indigo Fun
Bet no one knew anyone could dress like the radical fashionista? In her editorial featured in Vogue Magazine, the "Judas" singer dons a matador-style satin two-piece suit, and anyone can mimic this look by personalizing it with more professional pieces. The $90 Nicole Farhi cotton shirt is a breezy inner garment for a £99 Jacques Vert blue jacket paired with a £22 pencil cut denim from Desire Clothing. This fun purse from Fossil has wild colors and print worthy of Lady Gaga, and the YSL Rogue lipstick will pamper your inner wild side. Show up in a lunch date or in a meeting wearing this outfit and tell friends how Lady Gaga inspired the look.
Mila Kunis - Monochromed Beauty
Mila Kunis' fashion sense is as classy as her flawless beauty. Seen here in Nylon Magazine's cover, the Friends with Benefits star goes comfy in a plain shirt, blazer, and glittered pants. Anyone can have this simple look for a cheaper cost with a $67 True Religion shirt inside a £60 Oasis Drape Pocket Blazer. In the photo, Mila is wearing a Chanel rhinestone buckle, but the bargain hunter in you can settle for this equally dazzling crown buckle from Guess that only costs $30. Finish the Mila Kunis-inspired look with a layered necklace from DAY Birger et Mikkelsen Necklace Shell valued at €48. Paint your nails matte black and don't forget to put on some eyeliner for a smoky eye and you're ready to flaunt the streets like Mila Kunis does.
Lindsay Lohan - Cozy Days
The troubled star may be in and out of trouble, but no one can deny her impeccable taste when it comes to clothes. In this Nylon magazine editorial, LiLo is seen with a wool oversized sweater, white shirt, and white oxfords. If the weather's cold, you can opt for this classy Fradswell jacket and James Perse contrast shirt paired with cozy linen shorts. Finish the Lindsay Lohan autumn attire with these white brogues from Topshop and a nice blow-dry to add volume to your hair.
