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.
Kerry Washington
Her style on hit TV show Scandal is so in demand that a clothing line has been launched in her alter-ego’s name, but even when Kerry Washington is not in Olivia Pope mode she still managed to claim all the style plaudits. Last night, new mum Washington hit the red carpet at the BET awards looking a picture of youthful elegance in a strapless floral Dolce & Gabbana dress. The key to the look was in its simplicity, letting the print do the talking by paring with on-trend white point-toe pumps and a green clutch. Gorgeous!
Candice Swanepoel
The stunning supermodel was a Dior darling when she made an appearance at the brand’s menswear show at Paris Fashion Week. The Victoria’s Secret model didn’t seem to mind the rain in the French capital, opting for a daring tuxedo-style dress paired with wet-look hair, pointed court shoes, a simple clutch and some statement earrings. It’s easy to see why she’s a darling of the catwalk.
Jennifer Lopez
There’s only one explanation for this – Jennifer Lopez is ageing in reverse. The singer looks better and better with every year that goes by, and her style is fierce! Her latest win was an appearance at iHeartRadio’s pool party. J Lo opted for comfy black drawstring pants, paired with a metallic vest and black courts. Since she’s gone so simple with the look, she has the freedom to pile on the accessories, donning hooped earrings and lots of gold rings and bangles. You’ve never lost it Jenny from the Block.
Rita Ora
On any normal day of the week, we might do a double take at Rita Ora’s ensemble. But as every knows, the rules of fashion go out the window at festivals – so we’re delighted to see the pop princess experiment with something a little more edgy! The print is part Rorschach/part bovine, but somehow on the dungarees, it works. We’re assuming the fringed boots are a not to Glastonbury headliner Dolly, and we’re happy to see she’s being sensible and carrying a raincoat too…
Kimberley Walsh
You can keep your Cheryls and Nadines, when it comes to Girls Aloud, Kimberley Walsh has always been our favourite! The gorgeous 32-year-old singer is heavily pregnant with her first child at the minute, and to say she looks ‘blooming lovely’ would be an understatement. Earlier today the star spent time meeting fans and signing autographs outside BBC studios in Manchester, posing in a beautiful poppy-print summer dress paired with black stroppy sandals and some shades. We also have a serious case of hair envy…
