Menswear

As a stylist, menswear has always held a special place in my heart. When I was younger, I would watch my dad get dressed a lot and I was always drawn to his workwear—it was a style that always appealed to me and it ended up making a huge mark on my own personal style.

Luck would have it, this spring is all about putting a new spin on menswear by using classic pieces such as suits and blazers to create a more feminine expression.

DO incorporate a menswear piece into your eveningwear look! I love throwing an oversized blazer on top of a flirty dress and heels.

Emily Ratajkowski

DON'T overdo it by mixing too many colors, textures or trends. This look should be clean and effortless. Emily is a gorg girl but even she can't pull off a menswear blazer over silk PJs with a crop top. Also, don't pair your suit with anything too revealing.

Poppy Delevingne

DO try a suit in a bold texture or color. Pull the look together by wearing a matching jacket and pant. If you want to add a feminine touch, try a pussy bow shirt underneath, as seen here on Poppy Delevingne.

Off the Shoulder

Move over, midriffs and crop tops! Shoulders are set to be the erogenous zone of 2016. The look has been all over the runways, as many designers have used exposed shoulders to add a touch of romance to their spring collections. This style works for just about every body type as it is perfectly flirty and suggestive without being too revealing. It's effortlessly glamorous and surprisingly comfortable—what more could you possibly ask for?

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Let your shoulders do the talking when it comes to eveningwear. Although this style is generally associated with the boho trend, it carries over into formal wear flawlessly! Try a dark colored look and top it off with a pair of earrings or a dazzling necklace.

Jaime King

DON'T go overboard with this look. This dress on Jaime makes her look like she slept through her alarm and hastily rolled out of bed. The main attraction here should be the exposed shoulders so steer clear of ruching, asymmetrical hemlines or prints that are too distracting.

Lily Aldridge

DO ring in spring by pairing a sexy black leather skirt from your winter wardrobe with a summery off-the-shoulder top. The exposed shoulder is the perfect way to transition into your spring wardrobe.

Lingerie

My go-to bedtime look is made up of mix-and-matched high-school sporting uniforms that have been washed to oblivion and are quite literally hanging on by a thread. Every now and then, however, I like to treat myself (and my significant other) to a beautiful negligee or slip. Luckily, these pieces are about to get a lot more love, as this spring is all about taking your finest lingerie pieces from the bed to the street. This look has been seen both on and off the runways with celebs using everything from lacy slips to layered brassieres. Here's how to wear this ultra-feminine trend this season without setting yourself up for an epic wardrobe malfunction.

Jennifer Lawrence

DO pair a lingerie-inspired piece with a structured, more masculine coat or blazer. The juxtaposition between the two is every stylist's fantasy.

Kate Moss

DON'T skimp out like Kate. Bless her, but we're not 19 years old...nor are we still living in the ‘90s...nor do we have her body. This look is not about walking out in your bra and underwear so steer clear of any¬thing too transparent!

Dakota Fanning

DO cover up! Find a lacy top or slip dress that covers all your bits. The fit should be sloppy and loose—stay away from pieces that are tight or too revealing.
