Jaime King in Proenza Schouler & Rachel Bilson in Chanel - The CW Upfronts

Jaime King and Rachel Bilson attended The CW's Upfronts in NYC for their show 'Hart of Dixie'.

Jaime wore a bandeau top and floral wrap skirt from the Proenza Schouler Spring 2012 collection.  She wore it well, topping it with a Rag & Bone blazer.  Edgy accessories included a Proenza Schouler PS1 clutch and Giuseppe Zanotti heels.

Rachel Bilson was the absolute opposite of Jaime in her frothy Chanel Spring 2012 dress.  Rachel often tends to wear super girly dresses on the red carpet so it wasn't surprising.  Wavy hair and satin Casadei heels were the finishing touches.

Style report: Zoe Hart, Hart of Dixie

Something tells me Rachel Bilson has had a thing or two to do with her character Zoe's style in Hart of Dixie. They've both got the fashionable-and-chic-but-not-extreme look down, and looking at the outfits below, I don't doubt for a second that Rachel would wear every single one of these looks off-screen as well.

Even though Zoe wouldn't be caught dead in much but her high heels and tiny shorts, the fashionable doctor from New York City does occasionally give into to Bluebell's traditions and dresses for the occasion, which is usually more à la Lemon Breeland, whose style I will feature later on.

Rachel Bilson In Vanessa Bruno & Isabel Marant - Sunglass Hut's Spring Style Celebration

Rachel Bilson attended the Sunglass Hut's Spring Style Celebration at the brand's Santa Monica, California store yesterday.

She was as usual, cute and casual in block separates that included a white tank, wide-legged raspberry pants (Isabel Marant) and an oversize black blazer (Vanessa Bruno).

She completed the look with relaxed, loose hair, a chain-strap black bag and ShoeMint heels.

Celebs at the Chanel and Charles Finch Pre-Oscar Dinner

I have to say, I wasn't a big fan of any of the clothes at this pre-Oscar party. But here goes.

 Rose Byrne wore a column, colour-block dress.  Her bob really breathes interest into all of her looks. Clever.

Diane Kruger in a satin LBD - not loving the way it's sitting on her bust though, looks very uncomfortable.

Olga Kurylenko looked pretty good in her sparkly dress and shoes.

Freida Pinto wore a strapless LWD but her footwear is, for lack of better word, tragic.

Lily Collins wore a ruffled white skirt and black top with a leather jacket.  Lily suffers from the black pump syndrome, sadly.

Elizabeth Olsen attempted to do granny-chic but that blue coat is so unflattering.

Ginnifer Goodwin paired a white blouse with some very ill-fitting black shorts. The pink clutch, red lips, headband, shiny sandals... it's all a bit too much.

Rachel Bilson wore a dove grey dress with floral embroidery but ruined the look by wearing that suede jacket.  Just the bag and heels were enough.

Rachel Bilson In Chanel - 2012 Art of Elysium Gala

Rachel Bilson wore a Chanel Spring 2012 dress to the Art of Elysium 'Heaven' Gala.

The pale, pale green confection with fringe and embellished detail is something that screams and yells Chanel and certainly adds interest to the red carpet. 

However, it totally overwhelms the petite actress.

 That being said, she looks fabulous neck up: a gorgeous pinned up hairstyle, a white hard shell Chanel clutch & Casadei heels completed her look.

Rachel Bilson In Suno - ShoeMint Brunch

Rachel Bilson, who has collaborated with new online shoe store, ShoeMint launched the store in London yesterday.

The Californian fashion icon brought some of that style to London in a  
Suno Spring 2012 maxi.  The dotted, dove-grey dress has pleats and a halter neck.

Rachel kept her look very simple, opting to go accessory-less.

Best Dressed of the Year! Number 23: Rachel Bilson

Why Rachel Bilson is my 23rd Best Dressed of the Year: Rachel Bilson has been one of my favorite style icons for many years, and she's basically one of the reasons why I became interested in fashion in the first place. I have to admit I wish she'd take some more risks though. She always looks super chic and fashionable, but her choices feel quite 'safe', and where's the fun in that? I always love her shoes though. There are just so many people in Hollywood who don't pay enough attention to the their footwear, but in Rachel Bilson's case, the shoes really take her outfits to the next level. Basically, she knows what works for her and she sticks to it, and sure, I wouldn't mind a crazy outfit now and then, but she always looks fabulous so I can't really complain!

Rachel Bilson In Vanessa Bruno - Nylon Magazine Cover Launch

At the launch party of her new cover with Nylon Magazine, Rachel Bilson wore a typically laid-back outfit consisting of chic separates.

She wore a sheer black tee with boyfriend jeans, topping it off with a Vanessa Bruno Fall 2011 jacket.

While I love the jacket, the Louboutins and the oversized suede clutch, it's the hat I have issues with as it seems like an afterthought.

Fashion Roundup

Sienna Miller wore a black romper from her fashion line Twenty8Twelve at a party in London, and went very chic with her updo, gold hoops and heels.  The hairstyle was a welcome change from her usually messy hair.

Zoe Saldana brightened up the Lanvin party in LA, by wearing a colour block fringe dress by the label, with cool ankle-strap heels and an even cooler statement necklace.

Kate Bosworth & Rachel Bilson partied with their favourite jacket designer: Vanessa Bruno.

Kate looked stylish in an embroidered white shift, worn with volumised hair, a delicate shoulder bag, tights and heels.

Rachel Bilson's outfit didn't quite work out.  The olive coloured blouse & jacket are all fine, but the boy shorts and berry coloured boots are ruining this look.

The 'Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1' promotional tour continues.

Ashley Greene was in Chicago in simple white sheath, worn with a sleek ponytail, a black box clutch and red lips; but the shoes aren't working: too pointy!

Nikki Reed stuck to her breezy style, in a polka-dot Dolce & Gabbana frock, she too wore pointy black pumps, how disappointing.

Nicole Richie promoted her line, Winter Kate, at Nordstrom in a floaty-sleeve, printed mini from the line, and added colour and interest via the citrus satin pumps.

Emma Stone attended the Museum of Natural History gala in a persimmon hued Carven maxidress, paired with a large, moss coloured clutch.  As cute as she looks, the empire waist of the dress isn't flattering, and that clutch is too large & too casual.  But the colourful Tabitha Simmons heels are spot on.

Rachel Bilson in Vanessa Bruno

Rachel Bilson has been getting great reviews for her new show on The CW but she's still doing her promotional duties. 

In NYC, while exiting her hotel, Rachel paired a printed, full-sleeve Topshop dress with a black Vanessa Bruno blazer and suede heels by Louboutin. I love the dress, it's so pretty!

The next day, she wore a white doily dress by Suno and again picked a Vanessa Bruno blazer, this time in a dusty pink hue.  Her shoes were a constant.  And by now, it's pretty obvious that Rachel loves her Bruno jackets!

I love how Rachel manages to mix high-end and low-end pieces to create fabulous ensembles.
