Found! Victoria Justice Masters Youthful Sophistication

Victoria Justice found the perfect combination of class and youth in a coral-and-black Wyatt blouse - the nude version is available and on sale - while doing a meet-and-greet with fans in London.

Victoria Beckham Spotted Wearing One of Her Victoria, Victoria Beckham Fall 2012 Frocks

We just saw Victoria, Victoria Beckham's Fall 2012 collection, and already the designer has been spotted wearing one of her prim and polished dresses in LA. To re-create this ladylike look, which is perfect for the office, just pair a sleek black dress over a crisp white button-down blouse, then add navy tights and black booties, like Victoria's Walter Steiger pair, to finish off the look. Then after work, remove the button-down shirt and cinch your waist with a skinny belt for a less professional, more nighttime-appropriate feel.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley Gives Us a Moody Color Combo to Try

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley strutted through London's Heathrow airport looking smashing in a bordeaux Balenciaga leather jacket - shop a similar, less expensive version here - which she paired with a creme tee, gray skinnies, and suede Opening Ceremony booties. We love that she reached for a nonblack leather jacket and how she paired the bordeaux with gray. Quite the impact-making color combo and a good alternative to all the bright colorblocking going on lately. Score Rosie's winning look by styling a dark red jacket with skinny gray jeans, suede booties, and a printed scarf for a day of errands, then switch things up with a pair of strappy black pumps and a stud clutch for a night out.

Yes, Trapper Hats Can Be Fashion Forward – Just Ask Jessica Alba!

Jessica Alba has been spotted in awesome colors and prints recently, but what we love most about her NYC outfits is her latest funky and furry accessory.

With it, the actress proves that trapper hats can indeed be stylish and aren't only for the wild outdoors. A pop of color via her bright pink bag lent just the right amount of girlie flair, keeping the ensemble from looking too rough. Try a fur topper with a classic coat, skinny jeans, and a bright bag to re-create this Winter-chic look in your city.
