Here’s another jacket and jeans pairing similar to yesterday’s with Rachel Bilson. Obviously this is a very popular go-to look that can be done in so many different ways to keep it interesting! Jessica Simpson pairs her skinny jeans with one of the “it” jackets for the season – a cropped military jacket, long tee, trendy platform boots, oversized sunglasses and a huge bag.
The key piece in this look is the military jacket. What a great item to own! This Juicy Couture Skylar Military Jacket, $298 would be perfect! This one is black. I kind of prefer that though. As with many New Yorkers, black is my favorite color!
Jess has chosen a tee that is long but fairly fitted. You don’t want a baggy one because that would look stupid coming out from the cropped jacket. Something like this would probably work well: Delia’s Gia Short Sleeve Tissue Tee, $16.50.
To get more of a contrast between the jacket and the jeans like Jessica has done, go for a medium wash instead of dark. Gap has a medium wash in their Forever Skinny Jeans, $59.50.
A suede platform boot gets shown off nicely when paired with skinny jeans. These are Steve Madden’s Chelsey Platform Boots, on sale for $99.19. (fyi – they also come in blue suede – the color looks almost exactly like what Jessica is wearing above)
Grab a pair of big sunglasses and the most huge bag you have and you’re ready to go out!

Rachel Bilson is known for her boho chic look. She even has her own column in In Style Magazine called “Ask Rachel”! So it’s no wonder that even out running errands she looks great.
To get a look similar to Rachel’s casual chic ensemble, pair a black blazer with a tee, worn & torn skinny jeans, suede boots and a classic bag with a leather and chain strap.
A black blazer is pretty much a wardrobe essential, so if you’re going to splurge on something this is probably a good item to splurge on. Theory makes some great jackets that are a bit pricey but very well-made and will last a long time. Here is their Gabe Jacket, $375. If you don’t want to spend so much Express and Gap have some good lower priced options.
J. Crew is always a great source for basic tees, here is their Vintage Cotton V-Neck Tee, $29.50.
Designer denim can be SOOO expensive, Bluefly usually has some great deals. Here are a pair from James Jeans that are regularly $195 and are marked down to $104.99. James Jeans Geneva Stretch ‘Neo Beau’ Cropped Jeans.
Although I’m sure Rachel’s bag is Chanel (BAG ENVY!), most of us cannot afford to spend $2,000 + on a bag. There are many bags out there that have that Chanel-inspired look. Here is a very inexpensive one from Charlotte Russe: Handbag with Chain Strap, $18.50.
Although these lace-up boots are not quite the same color as Rachel’s they are suede and have a nice round toe. The price is quite reasonable too, Steve Madden Suede Platform Lace-Up Boot, $109.73.

Megan Fox was at Milan’s Fashion Week looking very classic and chic in a little black dress, tailored gray jacket and sky high platform pumps.
To get a similar classic look, here is Susana Monaco’s Center Gather Dress, $161. It’s a pretty classic looking little black dress and the ruching detail and neckline give it added visual interest.
Pair the dress with a little jacket. Here’s one from The Limited: Feminine Jacket, $158.
To get Megan’s shoe look, go for something with a snakeskin print. Bruno Magli Mirta Platform Pumps, $355 are a great choice. They have the really high hidden platform.
A more affordable shoe option is this pair of Vince Camuto Miki Pumps, $128.95. They combine the snakeskin look with suede and an open toe for a more trendy look.
Grab a black clutch ($78) and a big cocktail ring with black onyx ($10) and you’ll be all set to dazzle like Megan!

Jennifer Garner made a statement in bright pink and white at the 6th Annual Pink Party at the W Hotel in Hollywood this weekend. Bright pink is a daring choice, but it makes sense for a pink party!
If you’d like to venture into pink style, to get a similar look pair a shiny tank with a textured white mini skirt and layered pearls.
BGN Viscose Tank from Yoox. $75.
BB Dakota Isaac Lace Skirt, $70
Layer on several necklaces, or one multi-strand necklace like this one from Banana Rebublic: Gala Strand Necklace, $98.
It’s hard to match pink tones exactly, so a nude shoe may be an easier choice. (you know, just in case you don’t have a stylist like Jen does…) This platform pump from Pour La Victoire is a good choice: Irina Platform Pump in Nude Patent Leather, $250.

Coco Rocha looked amazing at NY Fashion Week. She’s very on-trend with over the knee boots, leggings and a jacket – simple but super stylish!
Who says you can’t walk around town looking like a top model? You can get a similar look with this Elizabeth and James Blazer, $395.
You probably already have leggings or jeggings, either one could work with this outfit. I really like Gap’s legging jeans right now. These, in a true black wash, are only $69.50.
You can easily spend a fortune on boots, but with a style so trendy as the over the knee type, it’s sometimes good to go with a modestly priced version. That way you don’t feel too bad if you don’t wear them very often. These are a good option: Franco Sarto Over the Knee Boots, $139
Pair these with a textured black top, coral lipstick (perhaps Korres Lipstick in coral #45) and sleek straight hair you’re ready to go!

Ashley Tisdale stopped on the PIX 11 Morning Show recently. She took a casual, chic approach to her fashion. She wore a floral top with skinny jeans and perfected her look with a tan, leather jacket.
Here’s Ashley in her jacket.
Here’s the ARDEN B. jacket. It has a similar color and look to that of Ashley. This truly is a good purchase. It is a fall staple. You can pair it with jeans, like Ashley did, or even a casual dress on a chilly day. It is definitely worth the buy! ARDEN B. Leatherette Jacket, $59.00
