Fresh Trend: Tell Me About It, Stud!

Beyonce and hubby Jay-Z were out and about in Barcelona today. B, ever the fashion lover, was all over the stud trend rocking a studded vest and studded backpack.

Thankfully this is not a trend you need millions to take part in. Forever 21 has *literally* tons of studded items for less than $30! Here are some other great studded options from around the net. (My fav - the studded Express blazer!)

Fresh Redux: Kim Kardashian's Boyfriend Chic

Ok, so IMO, Kim Kardashian is in no way a celebrity - she's a hot girl with a banging body, and.. what?.. a sex tape? Not someone I am trying to emulate.

With that said, she was wondering about, and someone took some pictures of her. She just-so happened to be wearing a pretty cute outfit. From the Ever "Guna" Vest, to her tee, to her shorts, she was rocking the boyfriend trend. And while it is bordering on a bit too matchy for me, overall the look is casual and funky. Try reduxing it for around $100!

Fresh Trend: Holy Moly Leggings

Can you handle Lady Gaga?! Here she is, making her way through the airport in some dark shades, a black blazer and booties, and oh yeah, holy moly leggings! (I love how she's hiding her face from photogs wearing those pants! lol)

This girl deserves an award for her fashion bravery! Brave enough to redux her look?

Fresh Redux: Erin Wasson's Ripped and Tailored

Erin Wasson looks like she was torn to pieces by some awesome fashion tiger or something! I could never wear so many rips, but more power to those of you that can!

Love her outfit? Here's how you can get her fresh look on the cheap. Key pieces: Grey boyfriend blazer, sheer tee/tank, ripped black pants, lace-up black boots.

Fresh Trend: Leighton Meester's Alterna-Tunic

Not a beach tunic kind of girl? Who said you can't look dope at the beach? Leighton Meester certainly did while at the beach in L.A. last weekend. She was rocking a Pencey One Shoulder Tee, $165.00, (and some sunblock, I hope!). Here are some inexpensive alterna-tunics so you can try out the look.

Fresh Find: Tort Wire-Rim Flip-Up Sunglasses

Ha! How freakin' awesome?!?!?!?!?!?! These round wayfarer Wire-Rim Flip-Ups, $5.20, are SO Dwayne Wayne! Even though these are super cute and unique, they still do the important stuff - like providing UV400 protection, while blocking UVA and UVB Rays.

How much confidence must you need to pull these off?
