Dresses Post

Cher Lloyd out in Manchester on February 23, 2012 (source)

One of the things that I love about Cher Lloyd’s fashion sense is how she’s able to fuse together so many different styles — not many girls would wear loafers and a hoodie in the same outfit! While her look in the X-Factor days was much more street, she’s been able to mature and dress up her style while still mixing in elements of her casual fashion.

Cher’s dress is the Motel Maybelle Bodycon Dress in Black and White New Check, available for £38.00 at Topshop or Motel Rocks. This dress has a playful print with a retro, 60s-inspired shape and contrasting black collar. Her Topshop Lurex Zip Hoody (£30.00) has metallic fibers for a silver glittery look.

Though I’m not sure where Cher got her tights or shoes, I’ve found similar items. These Dark Beige Chain Loafers from River Island (£30.00) are a bit lighter in color than Cher’s burgundy pair but have the same thin-soled silhouette and gold chain detail. Copy her sheer polka dot hosiery with John Lewis’ Spot Tights (£8.00).

Sherri DuPree-Bemis is wearing the I Heart Zombie Unicorns Dress by Hell Bunny ($52.00). The dress mixes cutesy and grotesque with its pink and green cartoon print of eyeballs, skulls, poison bottles, teddy bears and of course zombie unicorns.

Cher Lloyd in Heat magazine

Cher Lloyd is wearing The Jen Dress in Wine and Black from Motel. This dress is color blocked with some interesting shaped that give it a futuristic look. Cher’s dress has black mesh sleeves, but they also make a strapless version.

Katy Perry at the Change Begins Within event on December 3, 2011 – PR Photos

Back in December, Katy Perry appeared on the red carpet in an off-white leather dress with a design made of gold studs in varying shapes and sizes. Her exact Geometric-Studded Leather Dress from the Versace Spring 2012 runway collection is available at Neiman Marcus for $7,925.

Fortunately there’s a much cheaper option: for $70.00, roughly one percent of the cost of Katy’s dress, you can get the Studded Shift Dress from Goddiva. Pair it with Michael Antonio “LoveMe” Metallic pumps for $39.99 to complete the Katy Perry look on a budget.

Natalia Kills in Jolie Magazine

Natalia Kills is wearing the Padded One-Shoulder Glitter Dress by Brian Lichtenberg. I haven’t been able to find the blue color in stock anywhere, but you can find this dress in many other colors in Brian Lichtenberg’s store or at Alex and Chloe. You can get the look for less with glittery one shoulder dresses from Goddiva ($52.00) or ASOS ($80.57). ASOS has actually stocked an extremely similar dress in the past, but that one is now sold out.

Cher Lloyd on Daybreak on February 17, 2012 (source)

Cher Lloyd appeared for an interview on ITV’s Daybreak wearing the Oldchalk Kaftan Dress from Your Eyes Lie ($56.00). On her dress are some pink embroidered heart badges from Grace DuPrez. These badges are not available online, but the heart rings are only £4.00.

Cher accessorizes with bright pink tights. Normally I love crazy tights, but something is a bit off for me here. I think colored tights look better with a flared skirt or a super-short mini. Overall though I think this is a cute outfit, very playful but with a hint of sophistication.

I don’t know where Cher got her exact tights, but you can pick up similar pairs for only a few pounds from Topshop (pictured), Forever 21, Pretty Polly, or Hue. Get a similar pair of boots from £20.00 at Boohoo.

Natalia Kills at Dita Von Teese's Burlesque Show on February 14, 2012 - photo from Papermag

Natalia Kills is wearing the Eyelet Pinafore Dress by Chloë Sevigny for Opening Ceremony ($1,000). This leather shift dress has laser-cut details on the bodice and along the bottom of the skirt which really pop against the white shirt that she’s wearing underneath.

You can get the look for less by wearing a sleeveless dress like a jumper over a white short sleeve button-up shirt. ASOS has a similar laser cut dress for only $71.62. Find that and more budget-friendly options below:
