Jennifer Lopez Sheds 14 Years Off in a Youthful Blush Ensemble

Jennifer Lopez showed up at the taping of American Idol all dressed up in a blush metallic ensemble. The 44-year-old performer showed that age is nothing but a number when she put on a rather youthful look – from the sweet pink hues down to her cute half-ponytail – as she arrived backstage to judge at the Hollywood leg of this season’s American Idol auditions. The gorgeous Latina was later joined by a casually dressed Keith Urban.

Jennifer wore a full mini skirt by Kate Spade, which came in a lovely blush metallic material. She paired it with a blush metallic top, some seriously golden heels, a pair of huge drop earrings, and a nude Cayla clutch by Jimmy Choo (available at Saks). The Dance Again diva showed off her atrociously well-maintained toned legs. That’s J.Lo for you, people.

The Kate Spade Aimee skirt boasts of a lovely metallic fabric that easily takes on a voluminous shape, but tends to wrinkle a bit easily. The skirt has inverted pleats that holds the shape of the skirt, which are tucked cleanly into a waistband. The length falls a few inches above the knee, making it a great piece for mixing youthfulness and sophistication.

The skirt is also available in a gray metallic color at Nordstrom.

Jennifer Lawrence Does Dior Proud in a Guipure Crop Top

Jennifer Lawrence has had her share of red carpet hits and misses since stepping out into the spotlight around three years ago, with the fashion police going easy on then-19-year-old up-and-coming actress since she was only starting to make a name for herself. At 19, the actress was cast alongside big names such as Halle Berry and Hugh Jackman for the X-Men series, but failed to get international recognition since her character Mystique required that she become unrecognizable onscreen. It wasn’t until The Hunger Games was released in 2012 that Jennifer was catapulted straight into the Hollywood spotlight and into the not-so-loving arms of tough fashion critics.

In November of 2012, Jennifer hired the much-coveted stylist to the A-list celebrities, Rachel Zoe, who produced her first big moment on the red carpet at the 2013 Oscars. We’re not sure if it was the gorgeous voluminous Dior Couture gown that Rachel Zoe dressed her in (or the fact that she tripped on her way up to the stage to claim her award) that blew up her red carpet moment to epic proportions, but one thing is for sure – Jennifer is no longer letting her style guard down. The actress arrived at the Paris Fashion Week for the Christian Dior show clad in none other than Dior from their Resort 2014 collection.

Jennifer picked out a guipure lace cropped top and matching wool pants ensemble for the show. The beautiful guipure lace top is echoed in the pants by running a lace strip down one leg of the wide-legged pair. Guipure has been a favorite of designers for the last few seasons because it lacks the mesh that usually acts as the foundation for the lace, making the patterns stand out on their own even more. This type of lace has been made even more famous when Victoria’s Secret models Miranda Kerr and Candice Swanepoel donned gorgeous guipure dresses from the Australian brand Lover.

The beautiful crop top is not available to the general fashion public just yet, so we picked out three guipure tops that will catapult your closet into chic-whimsical fame.

Vintage Tee Lover? Grab Ashley Greene’s Rocking Shirt Now!

It seems like Kristen Stewart isn’t the only Twilight actress with a vintage tee obsession. Ashley Greene has also been spotted numerous times wearing some sort of rugged vintage tee whenever she’s out and about on an errand, headed to the gym, or even just to get her caffeine fix, and so on.

This time around, the 25-year-old actress was seen wearing a distressed skull-printed tee by CBGB & OMFUG while getting her smoothie fix in West Hollywood last Wednesday. Ashley looked like she just put on whatever was lying around in her closet but she did rock this vintage tee nevertheless.

Heidi Klum Joins the Palm Print Bandwagon

From swimsuits to cotton tops, the palm print trend, along with everything else that’s beach-related, is all the rage this summer. It does not come as a surprise then that fashion household names, such as former supermodel Heidi Klum, would not dare let themselves fall even one step behind the fashion pack. The ever-cheerful model-turned-host was seen spending an afternoon with her children and boyfriend Martin Kristen in Manhattan in none other than these funky tree prints.

Heidi has been making consistent waves with her outfit choices lately (we’re still not over her perfectly polished all-blue leather skirt ensemble), which gives us enough reason to run for our keyboards and tap away on search engines to get our daily Klum outfit fix. Heidi was spotted enjoying a casual meal in a long-sleeved cotton palm tree print blouse, denim shorts, oversized sunnies and thong sandal flats.

The Maison Scotch Palm Tree Shirt is a white cotton blend shirt with a front button closure, long-sleeves, classic colar and a chest pocket. The rather unisex print is made more feminine by the highly-noticeable curved hem. The shirt tends to wrinkle after a while of wearing it, which may make it more apt for casual wear.

For your dose of summery palm prints, get your Maison Scotch cotton blend piece from Farfetch.

Jessica Alba Takes Batman Out on Her Errands

The cutest little doting mom Jessica Alba was spotted running her errands in West Hollywood just a few days ago. The actress-turned-author stepped out of her car with the handles of her bag tucked into the crook of her arm and coffee in hand. She conversed with a person out on the street before she spotted the cameras.

Jessica’s style has always veered more towards the feminine side, opting for flowy tops, printed pants or billowy maxi skirts and dresses, so it’s quite refreshing to see her in something that’s not usually up in her alley. Aside from her ability to turn sweatpants into something really chic (if you don’t believe us, stop reading and scroll down to see her amazeballs talent), the actress wore a *gasp* graphic tee. While the overall execution was still pretty much feminine, we can’t get over the fact that Jessca Alba actually put on a graphic tee, and of Batman, at that.

Okay, so maybe Zoe Karssen did not exactly plaster a comic book rendition of Batman on one of her tees but rather a chic caricature version of him, which in general makes the look easier to pull off. But still, Jessica Alba, graphic tee, sweatpants and stylish all in one sentence? Some form of sorcery definitely happened here. Jessica pulled the entire look together with an oversized watch, hat, sunnies, a striped scarf, and a pair of lace flats. Voila! I present to you, my dear ladies, a look we’d like to dub as errand-fierce.

To grab your own dark knight, head on over to Bloomingdales.
