Look for Less: American Idol Edition — The CheapChica's Guide to Style


Look for Less: American Idol Edition

by cheapchica11 on March 17, 2010

Picture 2American Idol is one of the top shows on television-everyone is watching these days! Not only can the contestants sing but they’re already staring looking like rock stars little by little each week!

And even though some of the contestant’s wardrobe consists of top designers, like Vera Wang, you can look like one of the AI kids for a fraction of the price…here’s how:

When I watched American Idol a few weeks ago I thought Michelle Delamore’s look was right on trend for the 22 year old singer. And while I may not always agree with the judges on their opinion of the contestants performances, that night we all agreed that she looks fabulous!

She wore a white mini dress by Vera Wang, black tights, a cropped black jacket, heels and Lady GaGa-esque gloves. So… if you’re dying to know how to get this look for less start your shopping at CheapChica favorites like Charlotte Russe, Free People, and Forever 21…but remember to start with the focal point of the look.

In this case, I started with the dress and found one just like it at Forever 21 for only $29.80 and built my outfit from there…and while this trend setting singer was voted off, her diva style that night was a real winner!

While there is no way I could pull this off, I really like the look a lot. I’ve always liked the juxtaposition of opaque black tights with pretty, feminine dresses!

I really like this look too. What makes it special is how the dress is ruffled and flares just a little bit. I might actually try this out one day.
