LIGHTS: Acid Wash Denim Vest

LIGHTS live at the Masquerade in Atlanta, GA on March 7, 2012 - photo by Sisky Business

LIGHTS performed wearing the Moto Acid Sleeveless Jacket from Topshop ($76.00) over a white ribbed top. Her style recently has had a very grungy and deconstructed vibe to it so acid wash denim seems like a natural fit. Maybe she’ll even stray from black skinny jeans and try an acid washed pair? Seems unlikely but you never know!

Cher Lloyd dress hoodie loafers tights

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).

Demi Lovato brought her rock and roll look back for a concert at the Florida Strawberry Festival on Friday with destroyed denim, a leather moto vest, and a t-shirt from classic punk band the Ramones. Demi is wearing the black and white Ossie Two-Tone Leather Biker Vest by Karl ($675.00), but you can get the look for less with the all-black Belted Leatherette Biker Vest from Forever 21 ($27.80). You can get similar ripped black jeans from PacSun ($54.50).

Cassadee Pope’s jacket has been sold in a number of stores including Nordstrom and Agaci, but right now it seems to only be at Papaya. They only have it online in black, but they have sold Cassadee’s tan color in their stores and it may still be available. Buy the black Gold Button Point Lacy Jacket from Papaya for $18.99.

Sleigh Bells' "Comeback Kid" music video

Alexis Krauss rocks some awesome custom clothes in Sleigh Bells’ music video for “Comeback Kid,” the fist single from their newly released album Reign of Terror. Her studded leather jacket is from East Village vintage punk shop Search & Destroy. Her denim shorts were made by Bambi and Manson from a pair of vintage Levi’s that have been cut-off, slashed, bleached, and dyed. You can order your own custom-made “Scarlets” for £50.00. Pick up a similar skinny pink metallic belt from ASOS for $3.58.

kreayshawn denim outfit

Kreayshawn appeared at a party in a denim jacket and jeans, a look described by the slang term “Canadian tuxedo.” Does she pull it off, or is denim-on-denim always a faux pas?

Her Denim Bomber Jacket ($98.00, click “Stussy”) is from the Stussy x Made Me “S+M” collaboration. Her jeans are from Hollister and though I’m not enitrely sure which pair she’s wearing I think it’s the Hollister Jegging in Dark Wash ($39.50). She’s wearing a pair of Chloë Sevigny for O.C. Platform Sneakers which sell for $265.00 at Opening Ceremony, or La Garçonne, or Forward, but you can actually get a very similar pair for only $53.72 at ASOS. She tops it all off with the Insane Playboys Beanie from SSUR ($20.00).

Demi Lovato leather pants spike boots

At her recent concert in Chile, Demi Lovato wore the Pucca Backless Tux Jacket ($655.00) from Unconditional with some jewels added to the lapel. Getting Demi’s rock star look doesn’t require such an expensive piece – you can pick up a cheap pink blazer from Forever 21 here, here, or here, and add some studs yourself. Wear it with pleather pants like the Tripp NYC Deville ($62.00) and a t-shirt from your favorite rock band – Demi’s is a Poison tee.

Demi is wearing her Lita Spike Ankle Boots by Jeffrey Campbell, which retail for around $195.00 at Urban Outfitters, SoleStruck, Lori’s Shoes, or Jildor. Though cheaper than her jacket these shoes are still a bit pricey, but luckily there are some alternatives available. If you like the spiked heel you can get a similar look a a wedge for $78.00 or $92.99; or $53.40 if you don’t mind having a different color. If you like the shape of the Lita boots there are a number of alternatives on the market in the $20-$50 range: here, here, here, here, here, here, and many more.

Lexus Amanda Ugh hoodie

photos from Lexus Amanda's instagram

Lexus Amanda is wearing the Ugh! French Terry Hoodie from Forever 21 ($19.80) with a frustrated smiley face.

Lexus has had a lot of changes in her life recently — she’s now sober and engaged to Nicholas Matthews (former singer of Get Scared) — and with that has come a change in her style. She’s wearing less black and more colorful clothing like this aqua hoodie. She has also stopped wearing her dark raccoon eye makeup and now wears winged eyeliner.

What do you think of her new look? I love the makeup, but I liked her clothes better before!
