Celebrity Redo for Under $100: Reese Witherspoon
May 6, 2009 by 1vida
Filed under Celebrity Redo
I like Reese Witherspoon’s laid back look but I think it’s way too busy. Take, for example, the blue dress against the gray cardigan – it’s just confusing and looks like she threw on any old sweater she could find. And then there’s the fringed sandals that I think make her legs look shorter than they actually are. For the Celebrity Redo, I swapped out her blue dress and added a chic white dress with pockets which really pops against the gray cardigan (LOVE me a dress with pockets!). I kept the fedora but switched out the fringed sandals for jeweled one’s. Best of all this entire redo is under $100!

Celebrity Redo: Beyonce Knowles

Filed under Celebrity Redo
Beyonce is the perfect example of what happens when you wear too many trendy items all at once – it’s way too hectic and even great pieces look bad. To tone down the outfit, I swapped the caged heels for a simpler pair of caged-styled platform’s. To give the outfit a softer look, I traded in the fitted tank for the slub twist knot tank. Maybe even add some diamonds to the outfit, if you’re looking for just a little more flash. Tasteful and subtle jewelry can be a great touch when applied properly. Hope you like it!

Celebrity Redo: Get Victoria Beckham’s Look for Under $100!

I love it when Victoria Beckham dresses down. To me, she looks just as chic even without the expensive designer outfits. These baggy boyfriend jeans are the perfect example (I wonder if they’re David’s?). I decided to break down her outfit in two ways: one with the strapless top and the other without for those of you who deplore going strapless (you’ll notice that for this option I swapped out the strapless top with a spaghetti strap tank and cropped jacket, but kept the rest of her ruggedly chic look intact. Each outfit is under $100. Hope you like it!
