Websites, magazines and social networking sites including Pinterest, Twitter and Instagram are all great sources of outfit inspiration.
That said, famous faces are responsible for starting a lot of trends and we are always intrigued to see what looks they will try next.

Below are the stars we are crushing on this week and while we don’t have their budgets, we can still get style ideas from them.
Ashley Madekwe
Ashley Madekwe attended the launch of the Winter 2014 Dior Fusion Sneaker Collection last Tuesday wearing a Dior Resort dress. The Revenge actress opted for a sleek hairstyle and hot pink lips and we just LOVE the subtle pops of colour peeking out from underneath the lace overlay.
Jessica Alba
We have a serious girl crush on this actress and also happen to have a lot of love for Elie Saab, the Lebanese designer who created the dress below. Jessica wore it to the ESPY awards which took place in Los Angeles last Wednesday. From Saab’s 2006 haute couture collection, this piece is complemented by the mother-of-two’s glowing skin and smoky make-up.
Diane Kruger
The actress is known for her sense of style and it’s easy to see why with this Christopher Kane minidress. From the PreFall 2014 collection, the mixture of colours and textures makes for a gorgeous look. Her nude pumps and simple hairstyle allowed Diane’s statement dress to take center stage last week, while at a press conference for TV series The Bridge.
Eva Longoria
Never mind TOWIE and the no carbs before Marbs rule, this is how you showcase sunny style. Former Desperate Housewives star Longoria rocked the red carpet at the 2014 Global Gift Foundation Marbella, Spain, sporting coordinating Sportmax peplump top and skirt, accented with black-trimmed belt. Going easy on the accessories and the makeup, Longoria looks a model of chic and sophisticated style.
Mindy Kaling
If there is a woman who would make for a better BFF than Minday Kaling, we’d love to hear about it. The funny, smart and beautiful star of The Mindy Project can do no wrong in our humble opinion, and that extends to her love of colour on the red carpet. Minday went for a striking green to attend Sunday’s Fox Summer TCA All-Star party. Naturally, she looked like an all-star too.
