Celeb Copycat – Kim Kardashian is Colour Blocking Cool

Celeb Copycat – Kim Kardashian is Colour Blocking Cool

I think Victoria Beckham has taken a back seat in my Style Star Train and Kim Kardashian is in the driving seat. I just love how she pulls off colour blocking trend. So effortlessly chic, so casual cool, so hot and best of all, here’s how you can get copy Kim’s look for both day and a night time affair. Colour Blocking for daytime To nail the Colour Blocking Trend, Kardashian Style, you need a few basics; A simple white tee with pocket detail. Edgars has some really great ones that look almost identical to the one Kim K is wearing here. A pair of distressed jeans that you can turn up for the ultimate oh-so-cool style statement. I love this pair from Levi’s. They are Straight Cut Demi Curve Jeans in “Painted Beauty” and if you manage to find a pair (they were launched in selected Levi’s stores in July) then snap them up quick! R999 A pair of sky high nude heels. Although Kim is wearing caged-styled Louboutin’s, this pair of colour blocking wedges from Nine West are my favourite shoes of the moment. They are called Blanca and come in other colours too for R999 Kim doesn’t leave home without…

Woolies Scoop! Technicolour Jeans

Woolies Scoop! Technicolour Jeans

Coloured jeans are a huge trend for our upcoming summer, and we’re really glad these styles are back in fashion. The latest trend in coloured jeans is bright, technicolour skinny jeans in bright blues and fire-engine reds. Bright Blues Kim Kardashian and Hillary Duff are both fans of bright blue jeans, and as you can see from their ensembles, bright blue jeans work both for a casual cool effect a la Hillary or dressed up with a rocker edge like Kim. Bright blue jeans are best paired with simple white tees and stunner, stand out shoes! Racy Reds For a more stand out take on the technicolor jeans trend, look to stylista’s Hayden Panettiere, Khloe Kardashian and Mischa Barton for a little style inspiration. I love Hayden’s slick black and red ensemble and Kourtney pulls this trend off with leopard print details and a sexy denim shirt. Mischa’s look is more tomboy and while I love the combination, I’m not too sure about those oversized goggle glasses. Mischa, what were you thinking? Trying to stand out? Get the look Always on trend, go grab yourself a pair from the newly re-launched RE: jeanswear collection at Woolworths. These jeans have a really great…

Young Fabulous and Broke

Young Fabulous and Broke

Don’t you just love the name of this brand, Young Fabulous & Broke? I think it describes me, and a whole bunch of StyleScoop fashionistars just perfectly. Lately, I’ve been addicted to online shopping and came across this brand during one of my lengthy window shopping sprees. Believe it or not, I didn’t spend a cent, but uncovered a few interesting brands, that are so going to get added to my collection soon! Young Fabulous & Broke is the brain child of LA Fashionista Heidi Cornell and is as she says “inspired by young Hollywood”. Its no wonder then that young Hollywood starlets like Megan Fox, Sienna Miller, Blake Lively, Lindsey Lohan and Sophia Bush are all fans of the brand. I love the mix of soft, flowy styles that look oh-so-casual-cool and yet so very stylish. Flirty tops are made from fabulous jersey, soft cotton and fine cashmere, while the whole collection is luxuriously comfortable. PS! I don’t like to consider myself a bad influence, but what the heck. Some of these gorgeous, unique pieces are also available on sale at shopbop.com and to top that all off, they offer FREE shipping to South Africa if you spend over…

She’s got style – Sarah Jessica Parker

She’s got style – Sarah Jessica Parker

I’m a huge fan of Sarah Jessica Parker- Whether she’s playing Carey Bradshaw or herself, she is one of the most stylish stars of all.  SJP (and Carey for that matter) embrace fashion and know how to wear the trends, put looks together and how to always look perfectly polished. Scarves are a huge trend this season, and animal print is still in, that’s why I’m loving animal print scarves.  Its not too much animal, but just enough to give your outfit the edge.  I’ve seen these animal print scarves at Truworths and Edgars (R79.95), and I’m sure there are loads more out there.  Get SJP’s look with a pair of sexy, skinny black jeans, a black tailored jacket and add a leopard print scarf.  Finish the look with bright, bold shoes, like these new Camel pumps from Guess (R1 099).
