Hey readers! After my last article ("Beauty on a Budget"), I was at a loss for ideas. I tried browsing the wonderful website Polyvore, where I create the collages for my articles, but I just wasn't getting the right inspiration. So finally I decided to resort to looking at fashion sites and magazines for ideas. I tried Lucky, Seventeen, and finally decided to give People Magazine a try.

I went to the fashion section of their website and found something that I was familiar with, but had never crossed my mind, creating affordable celebrity-worthy looks. So I did my work looking over various celebrity looks, deciding which ones would be most wearable for everyday activities and found wonderful, more budget-friendly (all are under $40) counterparts to the pieces seen on these stylish stars.

Anne Hathaway is absolutely stunning, and this outfit makes her looks so graceful yet so fierce. The pairing of the delicate lace dress with the bright scarlet flats is the perfect balance of "saint and sinner" so to speak. The thin belt adds a nice touch and shows of her waist and the sunglasses are just a classic add-on to the outfit. She looks so carefree, yet in this outfit, all eyes are on her.

Dress: $28 Forever 21
Canvas flats: $16 Urbanog.com
Sunglasses: $14 Buckle

Emma Roberts is wearing simple black pants with some equally simple black flats paired with a super detailed, gorgeous beaded top. The top gives the outfit a touch of class, the same way a vintage beaded 1950's bag dresses up a basic outfit of jeans and a t-shirt. She looks so effortlessly pretty in this outfit.

Top: $28 Buckle
Pants: $25 H&M
Shoes: $25 Old Navy

Eva Mendes is enjoying a day on the town, sporting a rose covered sundress, a simple brown bag, sandals, and some sunglasses that really change the outfit's direction from garden party to uptown chic. You could wear an outfit like this virtually anywhere

Dress: $40 Shop
Bag: $30 Old Navy
Sandals: $10 Tillys.com
Sunglasses: $12 Aldoshoes.com

I really hope you all like the outfits I put together and were inspired to create some celebrity look-a-like outfits for yourself! As I have said before, if you have any article suggestions, leave a comment in the BBS or y-mail me! I hope everybody enjoys the rest of their summer!
