Mixing florals can be a bit risky but Miranda Kerr shows us how to do it in an amazing way. Stick to a similar color palette and you can be rocking double florals in no time. Also by keeping it simple with minimal accessories and fairly neutral sandals, you can let your florals shine!

Kate Mara Look For Less < $65

Kate Mara has become one of my new style icons-while there isn't a ton of coverage of her yet, the pictures I have seen have all sparked my interest in her style.  Plus, she sure is a beauty! Did anyone else watch "American Horror Story"? She was pretty creepy in that show, but I kind of loved her character.  I love this look below-the unexpected color pairings, and the laid-back vibe. I would totally rock a cropped tee if I had the flat stomach like hers!

Kate Middleton Red Dress Look for Less < $160

It's been a while since I've done a Kate Middleton look here... but it's not because I haven't been ogling over her sartorial choices these days.  She is looking as amazing as ever and I particularly love the red dress outfit she wore during the recent Jubilee celebrations.  The dress was so stunning on her and just a gorgeous color in general.

The red Alexander McQueen dress that she wore was originally a short sleeve version similar to this one.  This would be a great summer wedding look... here I found a similar sleeveless dress, clutch and shoes and added a fun corsage clip in lieu of a hat or fascinator.

I adore this look!

Either we just can't get enough of Olivia Palermo's style these days or she is just hitting it out of the park one after another...
