Be Red Carpet Ready And Get The Angelina Jolie Look - For Less!

Posted on 10 October 2008 by Jacqueline H


Angelina Jolie in Manhattan - October 4th 2008

This A-List Actress is one of the most famous women on the planet! Not only is she known for her very successful movies. But we have watched her transform from her bad girl image with ex-Billy Bob. To a graceful worldly mother and global activist. Next to her new hubby and father of her children - Brad Pitt. Even though not officially married, they make a great couple yet.


Looking dashing in a beautiful satin trench coat

The “Changeling” star lights up the film’s New York premiere in a custom black Versace strapless dress and Mikimoto pearls. You can get this look too! And for less! Here’s how. First let’s pick that distinctive dress. It has a beautiful off the shoulder cut, and a satin finish. I have picked three dresses from one of my favorite stores - Forever 21.

Basic Strapless Knit Dress -$22.80

A simple basic knit strapless dress with a fully padded bust, opaque lining, and a hidden back zipper closure. Gorgeous!

Deidre Strapless Dress -$22.80

A strapless figure-hugging short length dress constructed of gleaming satin and featuring a corset top with boning in the front. Feel like Angelina yet!

Bustier Tube Dress - $22.80

This sexy tube dress cuts a svelte figure with its satin upper and stretchy woven lower section. The bustier-style bust features lightly padded cups, while the skirted portion has side pockets, a back slit, and an included belt. This is great if you want to jazz it up a little, and add some contrast to your outfit. While still achieving the same look as Angelina. Now how about that trench coat? Here are two of my choices from Forever 21.

Belicia DB Coat - $44.80

Wool Blend Trench Coat -$34.80

An elegant single-breasted button front trench peacoat featuring a wool-blend construction. And an included matching belt.

Pearlescent Bead Earrings -$2.80

Fake those Mikimoto pearls with these three pairs of pearlescent beaded earrings featuring studs and half circle designs.

What’s great about all these style choices is that you are getting a great designer look - without the designer cost. Let us know what you think of the Angelina Jolie look!

When Rihanna first came out on the scene, it seemed as though her quiet soulful island tunes would keep her on the pop charts. Never in our wildest dreams would we imagine this young singing starlet to turn into a fashion and beauty diva.


Good girl gone bad. The before and after looks of Rihanna’s many beauty changes over the last few years.

This ‘good girl, gone bad’ has sure taken us all by surprise. Now if that’s not all she took another hair style leap by donning the classic ‘Halle Berry’ short crop.


Rihanna opts from the classic bob to the short crop look. Affirming her bad girl image.

But Rihanna has also become a stylish fashion icon on the red carpet. We have seen her transform literary into an over night sensation.

Keeping it classic and up to date in grey

Rihanna has kept us all guessing up to now. From her very flamboyant stage costumes. To her very young, hip and distinguished red carpet fashion. Rihanna is blazing through her looks to find the one that fits her the best. As we all know those fashion-rockers are constantly changing their style and looks. Let’s hope that Rihanna’s future of fashion and style will go towards the classic and timeless, alongside her music.
