Reese Witherspoon is not only an Academy Award winning actress and newlywed, but also a style savvy southern gal! This New Orleans native always hits the fashion mark, whether she’s running around town with her two kids, or accepting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Her star style is impeccable, and fashionistas everywhere can definitely learn a thing or two from this woman on the go! As your Glam, Affordable, and Luxurious resource, I searched the internet to find the best sites to achieve Reese’s style on a budget. I didn’t have to look far once I discovered JCPenney, your one stop shop for fabulous celebrity looks for less!

Reese’s daytime style is California cool, with casual looks like a denim skirt, striped tee and red flats. Striped tees are a great basic for every woman because they’re classic and easy to wear. Women of all shapes and sizes can wear horizontal stripes too, despite what you might think. Just remember, the smaller the stripes the thinner you’ll look! Also, look for tops with diagonal stripes at the waist and hips, which has a slimming and body lengthening effect. This long sleeve top from JCP.com would look great with everything from shorts and jeans, to a sexy little mini. Take a cue from Reese and sport this Americana trend all year long!

It’s not a surprise that Reese’s favorite accessory is her signature fedora. Whether paired with a printed sun dress or a tank and miniskirt, Reese tops off many of her daytime looks with this laidback hat.

A fedora is a fun way to add a little attitude to an ordinary outfit, or when you’re having a bad hair day! Try one instead of a baseball cap for day, or as a chic accessory to top off your evening look. For an affordable take on Reese’s boho fedora, try this lightweight version from JCP.com!

The “Water for Elephants” star has a red carpet style that’s a statement of feminine elegance. Ladylike silhouettes and refined embellishments help to make Reese a red carpet favorite. Opting for gowns that fit to flatter, Reese shows off her figure best in sheath and a-line styles.

These two shapes will complement every woman, because they hug your body in all the right places. Sheath dresses are a sophisticated way to show off your curves, while a-line skirts cinch in your waist to create beautiful lines. This a-line dress from JCP.com features a soft metallic hue with feminine details, Reese’s ideal combination for the red carpet!Strapless Dress_JCP.com_74.99

Reese looked like a Hollywood princess at her recent nuptials to Jim Toth. Forever a romantic, Reese came down the aisle in a stunning, blush hued Monique Lhuillier gown with a Chantilly lace corset and tulle a-line skirt.

This delicate hue would look amazing on all skin types, as the pink tones help to bring out your natural radiance. When dressing for special occasions, don’t be afraid to go outside the box and try something new. The most important thing is to be comfortable, and wear what makes you feel beautiful, inside and out!

Spring is officially here! With all of the hottest trends in fashion, it’s difficult to decide which items to invest in. Well, not to fear style savvy ladies, here’s a rundown of the most versatile and stylish fashion items for the warmer months ahead.

1.  Wide Leg Jeans

Thanks to the 70s influence in fashion this spring, wide, flare and fuller leg jeans are making a comeback. Thank goodness for the fact that fashion always comes full circle, because many of us probably have a few pairs of wide leg jeans already in our closets. While skinny jeans will continue to be a strong trend, it’s all about creating womanly curves with fuller leg jeans for spring! Dress up your wide leg jeans like Kim Kardashian, with a feminine blouse and a sophisticated belt.

2.  Peasant Top

If you can only buy one fashion item this spring, I’d recommend the peasant top. The easy shape and versatility makes this piece great with shorts, skirts, or pants. And the boho chic flair will make you feel carefree on the hottest spring days. Coming in an array of colors, from simple white and bright chartreuse, to bold prints, a festive peasant top is the ideal addition to every fashionistas spring wardrobe. Take a cue from stylish stars like Taylor Swift and Vanessa Hudgens, who pair soft peasant blouses with skinnies for a cool and casual look.

3.  Wedges

Nothing says spring than a fantastic pair of wedges! Laidback, hippie chic styles are in for spring, from wedges with wood and cork soles to sandals with woven straps. Add a wedge to your shoe closet and you’ll be good through summer. Easily worn with both casual and dressy outfits alike, you can walk around all day in a wedge as they’re more comfortable than traditional high heels. Jennifer Aniston likes to show off her toned legs with shorts and neutral wedges, while Kate Hudson proves you can still be stylish when running errands with the kids!

Available in an array of colors for spring, and featuring embellishments from feminine rosettes to rocker inspired studs, there’s definitely a style for everyone. The envelope clutch is also the perfect bag to take you from day to night.
