How to Wear a Crop Top and Skirt Set Like Taylor Swift


After working out in the morning on Wednesday, Taylor Swift changed into a matching crop top and skirt set. She was spotted while arriving back at her apartment in New York City.



The 24-year-old musician sported a Marled Skater Skirt by AQUA paired with a Marled Crop Top from the same brand. Taylor accessorized with a Bhailiu Streamlined Satchel and completed the outfit with a pair of Miu Miu Crisscross Platform Sandals.

Anne Hathaway Jet-Sets in a Cool-Chic Polished Ensemble


Anne Hathaway is looking extra gorgeous lately. After her stint at the recently concluded 2014 Oscars, where she was clad in a stunning Gucci ensemble, the 31-year-old actress was spotted looking very polished in a summer-ready white ensemble at LAX on March 5. She's definitely jet-setting in style; her outfit included a white V-neck top, a white blazer, and a pair of white Converse sneakers. She also styled with an oversized cat-eye Dior sunglasses and carried a large Gucci tote.

Anne Hathaway was undoubtedly cool and chic in white, but it was her trousers that really captured our attention. Her Piamita "Alexa" trousers are edgy and playful at the same time. They sure look very comfy in silk blend material designed with quirky prints of monkeys and palm trees. They also have rolled-up bottoms, button and fly zip fastening, and front and rear pockets.

Is Nicole Scherzinger Getting Engaged Soon?


Nicole Scherzinger should be expecting some very good news soon from her beau of 5 years, Lewis Hamilton. In a recent interview with The Sun, the Formula One racer has announced his desire to ask for Nicole's hand in marriage after being together for 5 years. In the light of Hollywood's lightning-fast relationships, 5 years is quite a "milestone," as Lewis put it.



However, there have been reports of a breakup circulating, and we sure hope they're not true! Nicole certainly didn't look the part of a distraught ex-girlfriend when she showed up in a red pantsuit by Hugo Boss at The X Factor auditions at Mercure Holland House Hotel in Wales.

The X Factor judges were out to see the best of what Cardiff, Wales, has to offer on July 3. Sharon Osbourne, Louis Walsh, Gary Barlow, and Nicole Scherzinger enjoyed a rare sunny day in Cardiff. Nicole even tweeted, "The sun is shining down on us in Cardiff today, getting ready for @TheXFactor."



With her tanned skin and fit figure, Nicole is definitely one of the sexiest women out there today, especially when she is wearing red.

Street Style Crush: Rihanna in White Boxy Shirt and Hot Pants


Stepping out into the busy streets of London yesterday was Rihanna. The trend-setting pop star was there for her Diamond World Tour and the fans and paparazzis gathered around the hotel entrance were only too happy to catch a glimpse of her.



We were totally expecting RiRi to wear something bright, dramatic and festive to fit the occasion but the outfit she walked out of the hotel in threw us off guard.

She was sporting a white-on-white ensemble, so fresh it totally left a clean feeling in our mouths. The pop star had on a white boxy shirt with a zipper accent on the upper right side. She let her shirt hang untucked over her pair of hot pants.



Until now, I still marvel at the ability of boxy shirts to elevate a casual ensemble into super chic status. It's just the right top to pick if you are feeling in the mood to dress up but don't want to go out of your way.



And then there's Rihanna's choice of accessories. We love the edgy vibe that leather visor added to the white-on-white pairing.



RiRi chose this ensemble to go all out in accessories. The chunky chain necklace was a nice touch and would have been our choice of accessory for this look too. But the real attention grabber is her gun-shaped earrings. It's no secret that Rihanna has a fascination for guns. For as long as she keeps this fascination contained to just accessories, there's nothing wrong with it, right?



While we do not share her love for guns, we do share her love for boxy shirts. Here are our white boxy shirt picks:



1. Jil Sander Structured T-Shirt, $353.77

2. Maison Martin Margiela Women's Wardrobe Printed T-Shirt, $81.64

Five Ways to Wear Ripped Jeans to Work (and Not Get Fired for It)


Before ripped jeans were associated with chic dressing, the only workplace where it was acceptable to dress yourself in tattered denim were probably those for intensive labor jobs, such as, err, coal mining. Nowadays, the lines for dressing up "seriously" for work through company dress codes and casual wear are becoming increasingly blurred as fashion-crazed employees continue to bend the rules and look appropriate enough to not be summoned to the boss' office. Ripped jeans happen to fall under the rule-bending category.



Ripped jeans are quite tricky to pull off because when paired with the wrong elements (yes, this includes even disheveled hair), the security guards may mistake you for a homeless person and drag you out of your cubicle and out onto the front curb of your workplace. Okay, maybe that was an exaggeration, but you get what I mean (assuming you at least wash your face and brush your teeth every morning).



We put together five different office looks to give those tattered jeans that polished finish that may even send your boss reaching for a pair of desk scissors to do her own pair in.



P.S. Dear readers in stricter professions, such as law and medicine, please don't take our word for it.

There is nothing more grown up and more polished than a crisp button-down top that fits like a glove, albeit this look intends to come off as a little slouchy. The sunnies make this look absolutely sophisticated, but since it would be weird and douchey to wear sunglasses inside the office, substitute your pair with delicate silver or gold jewelry and an oversized watch. Do not forget to finish the ensemble with pointed-toe pumps. They will make sure the security guards are kept far, far away.

If you can afford to look just a teeny bit more rugged in the office, go for a pair of black distressed denims and a biker jacket. Opt for a two-toned jacket, preferably in black and tan or any other neutral shade, with crisp lines for that glammed-up biker chick look. Round it up with gold jewelry and black suede heels to inject the look with sophistication.

You can never go wrong with lace in the office. Lace, done in the right silhouette, has been associated with power dressing for women time and time again, whether it's a top, a dress, or a skirt. Not all lace will agree with tattered denim, however, so we advice you to reach for a pair of white distressed boyfriend jeans instead. Choose a pair of minimalist sandals (and maybe a pretty pedicure) to complete the look. A leopard clutch for that extra rawr factor is optional but highly recommended.

This look is all about contrasts - soften the ruggedness of a pair of distressed boyfriend jeans with the girliness of a flowy but structured peplum top. Choose a peplum top that complements the fit of your boyfriend pants, lest you want to have bulges in all the unsightly places. The lovely Valentino Rockstuds are perfect for polishing the look off because the pair in itself exudes contrast - the feminine blush color and pointed toes are balanced by the studded straps. Don't forget to throw in some chunky jewelry.

Menswear lovers, this look will definitely delight you. Pick out a pair of white distressed jeans with fewer but more concentrated rips and throw on an oversized blazer with crisp lines and padded or embellished shoulders. Wearing a sheer cream top underneath will do wonders for the look as well. Pull the entire look together with a pair of beautiful oxfords for that chic menswear-don't-care look.

Selma Blair Rekindles Her Relationship with Her Siwy Cutoffs


Selma Blair hasn't been appearing in our radars very much these days, and who can blame this fairly new mother for wanting to keep her adorable son all to herself? The actress was seen spending a casual afternoon with her little blond, blue-eyed boy and her newly acquired blonde locks.



We love celebrities who are not afraid to be seen in the same article of clothing more than once. In Selma's case, she loves her Siwy cutoff denims so much that she has been seen out in the public in them at least three times (you can ease up on the shopping now, ladies - last week's perfect denim find can still be worn out in public for at least the next few years). We assume that, like the rest of us, Selma had that magical moment when her denim cutoffs fit her perfectly, and before she could do anything about it, it was love at first sight. Or maybe it was just practicality, being a busy mother and all. Whichever it is, Ms. Blair proves that the perfect denim pair could go a long, long way (and time).



Selma Blair Siwy Camilla Cut Off Shorts


Selma Blair spotted with her son in Los Angeles on July 11, 2013



We love the not-so-subtle fraying at the bottom of her cutoffs because once worn in, the fraying tends to take on a life of its own by folding itself in different directions, giving the pair a more naturally disheveled look. The Siwy logo is embroidered beautifully on both back pockets without giving off an intentional commercial feel. The whiskering is also subtle enough to blend in nicely with the natural creases on the front of this gorgeous denim number.



The "Camilla" pair is available in other hues and finishes at Revolve Clothing.

Rita Ora Illuminates the Night with Her Silver-Gray Suit — Love It?


It seems like Rita Ora is starting a love affair with all things that shimmer and shine.

Not that we're complaining or anything because she does have the personality and character to pull off this kind of eye-catching outfit, but what do you think? Are you loving this metallic look on her?
