eekend style stretches its arms and yawns at the monotony of an all-week fashion plan. While the latter is often determined by the expectation of others (cue in your boss), the weekend is the time you wear what you want, how you want. This weekend, if you’re nothing like me and choose to paint the town red rather than sleep in through it all, don’t let a style rut stop you. When all fails, there’s always inspiration tucked inside the expertise of celebrities and their style team.
For instance, a lush red carpet dress can be recreated for your wedding guest duties, and of course, a sheer fit for a night out. The trick is to make these looks your own rather than copy a celeb’s offering verbatim. All you need is your unrestrained creativity and the will to up your fashion ante. The result is always an authentic look you’ll be proud to break necks in.
These are sleek celebrity looks to recreate this weekend…
#1. Pink burst: Tracee Ellis Ross in Dior
If you’re contemplating a chic vibe for the weekend (or any of the weekdays for that matter), Tracee Ellis Ross’ Dior outfit is the perfect one to replicate. The look is a satin baby pink matching two-piece that evokes an aura of class. To complete the fit, she opted for black pumps that took the chic vibe to a whole new level.

#2. Flattering vintage: Kim Kardashian in Maison John Gillian
If you want it simple but classy, Kim Kardashian is a good example. She attended the Times100 Gala in a John Gillian vintage dress. The nude floor-length gown with buckled straps and mermaid flare emphasized her curves and gave her a timeless look. This look can be recreated for a dinner party or small family gathering. Nothing flashy, just simple and refined.
#3. Something gray: Yara Shahidi in New Bottega
Yara Shahidi lit up every gray area in a New Bottega gray midi dress when she attended a special screening of the “Peter Pan & Wendy” movie in NYC. This dress flattered her figure most appropriately. The number boasted a sleeveless round neck with a small cutout at the chest which showed off a bit of skin. A knotted design placed at strategic places created a curvier frame. To match the tempo, she opted for silver metallic wedge boots. An evening get-together or reunion would be an ideal place to rock this pick.
#4. Florals: Blake Lively in Carolina Herrera and Sergio Hudson
If you own a floral midi dress but haven’t found the right inspiration, Blake Lively‘s sophisticated combo might be It. For Barnard College’s Annual Gala, she wore a Carolina Herrera floral midi dress and layered it with Sergio Hudson’s pink and yellow tailored coat that matched the floral designs on the dress. This look can be recreated for a garden wedding or posted outdoor event.

#5. White tease: Alessandra Ambrosio in Monot
A white fit has its charm that spills unconsciously without interference. This is the type of charm Alessandra Ambrosio exuded when she attended the Fashion Awards in Monot. Her maxi shirt dress with a sweeping train, high slit, and wrap design at the waist made for a dang sexy offering. Looking for celeb looks to recreate? This sultry number is refreshing and an easy try.
#6. Denim-vaganza: Karrueche in Marni
This look would tickle the fancy of denim lovers. Karrueche stepped out in a Marni take that features a mock-neck sleeveless multi-colored crochet crop top and blue boyfriend jeans. For warmth, she donned a breezy denim floor-length jacket and finished off with colorful crochet footwear. This look can serve for a casual hang-out with friends.
#7. Silky greens: Jasmine Sanders in Rat & Boa
The Fashion Awards had Jasmine Sanders strutting in a fancy Rat&Boa attire. She looked like she didn’t stress much about her choice of clothing, but the green halter mini dress still oozed class. The sleeve from one shoulder was wrapped around her neck and turned into a slight train that fluttered in the wind. This dress also left her back bare, thereby showing off her radiant skin. It’s simple and sexy and I highly recommended it for a formal event.

#8. Draped silk: Priyanka Chopra in Roksanda
For the fan screening of The Citadel, Priyanka Chopra stunned in her Roksanda attire. Her floor-length purple dress featured a draped silk with an asymmetrical design. The ensemble was uncomplicated, but no doubt evergreen and elegant. This can be easily recreated for a red-carpet meet and greet.
#9. Party sheer: Lori Harvey in Dundas
This outfit by Dundas, which Lori Harvey undeniably bodied, gives off a sophisticated party-girl vibe. You know, the type of party that only has “the kids that slay” in attendance. The main event is a woolen body suit beautifully designed with woven floral art. She elevated it with sheer black tights and black pumps. Here’s a tip when recreating this look: slip into a flirty mini-skirt over your tights and you’ll definitely be right. If you have a soiree lined up this weekend, this is one of the celeb looks to recreate without stress.
#10. Easy living: Lashana Lynch
Lashana Lynch showed off a casual Sunday look in a relaxed multicolor midi dress. The knitted number features sleeveless arms and a side slit. She also cinched her waist with a black belt to spruce up the take. What I love is how easy it is to recreate this offering. Plus, whether you rock it to the beach, for a picnic, or on days you need an elevated at-home look, it’ll do great.
