Fab Finds Under $100: Raffia Wedge Heels

Bold color is everywhere this spring, from beauty products to clothing. And this season’s hues are so electric that a fashionista needn’t go overboard — a piece or two of colorful wares in a single outfit should suffice.

These kelly green suede wedge heels are one of those finds that can cause even the most calculated shopper to make an ‘impulse buy.’ The bright color paired with the raffia heel is enough to kick up the style factor on a neutral look, or can be the finishing touch on a color-block look.

The Stylish Vote: Lauren London, Selita Ebanks, Taraji P. Henson

Neutral hues are still fail-proof on the red carpet. These beauties all rocked shades of blush pink, nude and off-white in three distinct ways that worked!

Lauren London went monochromatic in a strapless nude mini-dress with matching suede heels, showing off her svelte post-baby figure at the film premiere for “Madea’s Big Happy Family.” Selita Ebanks added some edge to her cropped off-white, 3/4-sleeve top by pairing it with a black full skirt with leather cut-out details at OK! Magazine’s Sexiest Singles Party. Taraji P. Henson looked sophisticated and sexy in a body-con blush pink lace mini-dress at Coach’s recent benefit for The Children’s Defense Fund.

**UPDATE** This poll is closed. Selita Ebanks is the Stylin’ Chick of the Week.

The Look for Less: Kate Middleton

After weeks of managing to stay out of the paparazzi’s lens, Prince William’s fiancee, Kate Middleton, was spotted several days ago doing some last-minute shopping before her royal wedding this Friday.

While fashionable folk are still speculating about which designer Kate will be wearing for her April 29 nuptials at Westminster Abbey, the look she wore for her day trip is likely to be the last we’ll see before the big day. Her choice of a black, short-sleeved wrap dress with tan kitten heels and matching handbag is a classic look that goes a long way — brunch with friends, a dinner date or even the office.

A look that’s stylish and multi-functional? Yes, please! Check out our redo of Kate Middleton’s stylish outfit for under $200.
