The “A” list” Stars typically lead what is hot in fashion and this particular “A” list has a look just for you.  Check out what these “A” listers are wearing and see if you can adopt a few of these pieces to get your “A” game on. 

Angelina “LBD” Jolie:  She looks great in everything, but the impeccable LBD (little black dress) is one piece to add right now to round out your date night wardrobe.  Make sure to “make it work” with sexy pumps, a patent clutch and big sunglasses for daytime.

The Olson “Extreme” Twins:  For them everything is an expression in the extreme.  If your personality can wear it try a Fedora-the latest spring accessory, something vintage, and a large oversized handbag.  Easy!

Katie “Boyfriend” Holmes:  Here is one “A” lister I love to watch.  She kicked off the boyfriend sweater and baggy -rolled jean look earlier this year.  Often paired with a belt, be sure to wear them with flats and don’t forget the ubiquitous scarf wrapped around your neck and big sunglasses.

Posh “Dress” Spice:  Is all about the fitted dress-wear it below the knee and accessorize with a big handbag, platform pumps and oversized sunglasses and you have it all going on.

Lindsay “Leggings” Lohan:   Well, my daughter wore these when she was a toddler.  Please choose this look only if you have long, slim legs.  Wear it with an oversized (again) and layered top but don’t stop here.  This one look is probably the easiest to go wrong with.  Not accessorized correctly, you will definitely date yourself.  Pair your leggings with boots and a fringed handbag. (Tread lightly going with this look)

Rocking Rihana:  If “rocker” girl is your style this is a fun way to update your look.  Pair your leather jacket or get a short sleeved leather jacket with neon- one of the hottest new trends.  This is a trend you will see moving into the fall.  Wear aviators, lots of chains around your neck and you are good to go.

Most people fail miserably when they are trying to adopt a look because they do not complete the look with accessories.  If you have a style icon that you follow, watch carefully and look at everything from top to bottom about the look you like.  Make sure you are comfortable in the look and that it is your style personality otherwise you run the risk of looking “o.l.” (old lady). 

The bottom line is you are never too old to get your “A” list look.  Remember, look good, feel great, and have fun doing it!
