ictory is gaining pre-eminence against all odds. Sometimes, the odds present themselves as ruts and inertia that manifest in different aspects of our lives. One of the keys to breaking out of the aforementioned state is inspiration. Narrowing it down to style, after a stressful week of regimented style, creativity often bows out. And when the time comes to flex our sartorial muscles during the weekend, the momentum has almost come to a halt. But not this weekend.
This time, we’ll consult any stylish celeb outfit from our plethora of pinned looks. Here, red carpet dresses, elevated streetwear gear, and on-season ensembles will surely find their purpose. Before you choose the easy route of Netflix and chill, remember all the events you said yes to on your feel-good days. Dress the part and make the weekend a worthwhile affair.
Be inspired by at least one stylish celeb outfit you can replicate this weekend…
#1. Jennifer Lopez
Draped in a Monique Lhuillier number for the 2024 Hispanic Federation Gala, Jennifer Lopez rendered minimal tints with intricate tailoring. The dress cinched on the bodice and draped into a glorious cascade. The cape infused volume to the look and emphasized the lush textures. You’ve finally found your wedding reception dress, dear bride. If getting married isn’t yet on your list, ditch the cape and rock it for a garden wedding as a guest.
#2. Alexandra Shipp
The phenomenon called balance is evident even for conservative fashionistas. You choose to highlight one feature at a time to keep things in balance. The colors either pop or the silhouette snaps. If your route is understated elegance, adopt Alexandra Shipp’s style at the US Fashion Trust Gala. She wore a white high-neck Acne Studios dress, which would have passed for a regular white maxi, but the unique neckline with feather details offered something to look at twice. For a housewarming party this weekend, slip out your lengthy white dress and accentuate it with a distinct necklace.
#3. Tia Mowry
Denim and leather perform excellently as a pair. The leather takes the fit to an edgy show, while denim elevates the aura. Tia Mowry took to Instagram to post a series of shots in fashionable ensembles, and one that stood out for us was a leather jacket and top styled with utility jeans and black pumps. She injected large hoops and a wavy updo that was subtle yet fundamental in rolling up a midday brunch outfit.

#4. Janelle Monáe
It’s one thing to sport a neatly tailored suit and another skill to wear a bold red one. Janelle Monáe wore a red Sergio Hudson suit to the US Fashion Trust Gala. She zoned in on the hue’s impact with red lipstick, a matching mini purse, and a white shirt finished off with a bow tie. Wear a bold-colored suit to a red-carpet event or star-studded fashion fair.
#5. Zendaya
We share the sentiments of most individuals when we wish the Challengers rounds would go on forever because Zendaya hasn’t stopped churning fabulous getups without missing a beat. She breezed into the Jimmy Live show in a 1992 Ralph Lauren blazer dress, styling it with a white button-down shirt and tie to highlight her versatility. Whether timeless or trendy, feminine or menswear, Zendaya is versed in interpreting each style to do her bidding. Do you have a birthday party coming up? This stylish celeb outfit is a win on all fronts.
#6. Jurnee Smollett
The more we gravitate toward the preppy aesthetic, the more stockings have us in a chokehold. Jurnee Smollett wore an edgy blazer dress over white stockings and pumps as she attended a Louis Vuitton event in Paris. Tights are a cold weather accessory, but as they evolved, the sheer renditions popped up in interesting colors and lighter-weight textures for the warmer seasons. After an RSVP for a fashion exhibition, rummage through your closet for white stockings and an oversized blazer to recreate this trendy outfit.

#7. Golda Rosheuvel
A coat’s place in all our wardrobes shouldn’t be underestimated. They’ve proven their worth all season. The piece works its magic on any body type across women of all age groups. Understanding its power, actress Golda Rosheuvel donned a camel-toned Palmer/Harding coat to the Jennifer Hudson show. The fully-lined offering flaunts an adjustable fabric belt to accentuate the waistline and flatter the frame. Notwithstanding, styling it with a midi dress and pumps makes it a worthwhile choice for an office send-forth or a day at the park with your kids.
#8. Meagan Good
Boho fashion starts with a knowing floral print dress played up with complementary accessories. Meagan Good wore a high-slit floral print dress with black ankle boots and socks. At your weekend wine-tasting event, sport a free dress with sturdy boots to exude an adventurous spirit. It allows ease of movement and a youthful aura.
#9. Ashanti
Ashanti confirmed the pregnancy rumors with an announcement revealing her bump. The star girl wore a form-fitting Club L London blue dress with a D&G snake-print purse and sandal heels to an engagement in Miami. The dress had a draped sleeve that injected poise into her movement. Rocking this midi dress to a family dinner is a refined choice to show off your frame.
#10. Katrina Law
While at the Cleveland International Film Festival, there were numerous items to showcase, and fashion remained one of the essentials. Katrina Law took the mix-and-match trend for a spin with the same prints but different colors. The top was a red and white polka dot print, while the flare bottom was black and white. United by a black waistband, the dress stood out on the carpet and our screens. Attend a social media influencer meet and greet in this print flare dress for a balance of style and ease.
