Rachel Bilson at Chanel Show and Derek Lam Party

It is always fun to see what Rachel Bilson wears to various events, as she often looks so great. On Monday, Karl Lagerfeld showed off the Chanel Resort 2012 collection in Antibes, and Rachel was of course invited. She opted for the classic black and white combination, where all the pieces where labeled Chanel. I love how the leather shorts (from the Spring 2011 collection), the oversized well-tailored blazer and the sweet and delicate top (from the Spring 2011 Couture collection) work together, and how they act as contrasts to each other. Her bag is the icing on the cake.

The next evening, Rachel Bilson, was spotted in a very different part of the world. In one day she had switched from the French Riviera and Chanel, to New York and Derek Lam. Still sporting a black blazer, Rachel had switched her black and white ensemble with a more relaxed and bohemian look. She wore the Derek Lam + eBay Floral Georgette Boho halter dress, together with the White Chalk Painted Brushed Buffalo Evie Clutch by Derek Lam and a golden necklace by Pamela Love.

Rachel Bilson in Vanessa Bruno

Yesterday, Rachel Bilson was spotted in L.A before her appearance on Chelsea Lately. What immediately caught my eye is the coral Vanessa Bruno cropped jacket which she is wearing. And even though the jacket in itself is incredible (the shape and the colour), it is the way Rachel has combined it with the cream silk dress and the gold necklace which intrigues me. I love the mismatching of the different fabrics, cuts and colours. Still, I might have gone with a different coloured bag if I was her, but hey, it's Chanel by the looks of it, so who can blame her for wearing it.

Also, on Tuesday, Rachel showed up at the premiere for her next movie "Waiting for Forever", wearing a dress by Burberry. If you missed it, you should definitely have a peak (or ten!). Stunning!

The 10 Best Dressed of the Week

First of all, let me apologize for the very poor blogging this last week. The hectic exam period is kicking in, and therefore Style Spot had to suffer a bit. I felt really bad not posting "The 10 Best Dressed of the Week" yesterday, so here it is today. The week's best dressed consists of lovely ladies in gorgeous dresses - many in bold splashes of colour and many in chic black. I am starting to look for inspiration for the Christmas parties that are just around the corner. Maybe you are too, and hopefully some of these can inspire you. Enjoy!

10. Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth Paltrow looked beautiful in this Chado Ralph Rucci dress. I love the combination of the shiny black material and the see-through parts. Very sexy in a mature way, and Gwyneth carries it with such style and grace. There have been some disagreements when it comes to Lanvin heels, but I must say that I like them together with this dress.

9. Joanna Gracia

I love a dark purple dress on a brunette. There's something about that combination that makes you notice it straight away. It oozes such elegance. I like that Joanna wore silver accessories with it, as many opt for gold accessories with purple dresses. It makes a nice change.

8. Leighton Meester

I must admit that most of the time I do prefer Blake Lively's style over Leighton Meester's style. With Blake there's rarely an outfit that I dislike, but when it comes to Leighton I have more of a love/hate relationship with her fashion choices. When it comes to this dress by Pucci, however, Leighton gets ten points from me. She looks stunning and very bohemian chic in it.

7. Lauren Conrad

I love it when Lauren Conrad gets on the red carpet as I absolutely adore her. What I love even more is that this pale blue dress is from TopShop. It's music to my ears, though it's probably ripped away from the hangers already. Lauren really suits this old Hollywood glamour style, and here's hoping to seeing more of her like this.

6. Rachel Bilson

I find this dress from the Chanel Resort collection so refreshing, and especially when Rachel Bilson is the one wearing it. It's got her name written all over her. Also, I like that she has teamed it with those heels. It would have been so easy to wear it together with black, patent heels or something similar.



5. Olivia Palermo

At first, I didn't think much of this outfit on Olivia Palermo, but the more I looked at it the more I liked it. She plays with different contrasts when it comes to the materials and also pairs the 20s inspired dress with a more modern leopard belt. And there's nothing I love more than people playing around with contrasts when it comes to style.

4. Malin Akermann

I often find that simplicity is the best way to go, and therefore I really fell in love with Malin Akermann's outfit this week. The cream dress suits her body so well, and I adore how she has teamed it together with relaxed silver and brown accessories. Her hair is lovely for this outfit too.

3. Emma Watson

I can't say that I have been an eager follower of all the Harry Potter festivities that have taken place this week, but I most certainly noticed Emma Watson's Rafael Lopez dress that she wore at the London premiere for the 7th Harry Potter film. It's incredible. I have always loved her short hair, and I believe that this gives her such a stronger look. This is why she pulls this off so perfectly.

2. Eva Mendes

As you may have expected, Eva is on the list this week as well. I just can't helping posting her outfits as she always looks stunning. This week she wore this gorgeous and fresh Prada dress together with sexy. patent heels. I absolutely adore the colours. It makes me long for spring and summer.

1. Rihanna

I just had to give Rihanna the first place as I am head over heels in love with this incredible piece designed by Elie Saab. There aren't many words that can express my adoration for this dress, so I'll just let it speak for itself. Gorgeous!

The 10 Best Dressed of The Week


The 10 Best Dressed of The Week is a new feature here on Style Spot which will be posted every Sunday. Throughout the week, I'll be scouting for the very best outfits, and create a summary of them here. I hope you'll enjoy it!


This week, the stars have glittered in the occasion of New York Fashion Week. The Chanel Soho boutique opening attracted many beautifully dressed celebrities, with four of them ending up on this list. One gossip girl has received high fashion scores, giving her two great spots of the 10 best dressed list. Excited to see who?


10. Charlize Theron at Dior's Celebration of Fashion's Night Out

On Friday, Charlize Theron attended Dior's celebration of Fashion's Night Out looking very chic indeed. I love the use of grey and black teamed together which oozes simplicity and elegance. The cut of the black jacket is absolutely gorgeous. And I really like the element of surprise which is added by using those nude boots.


9. Alexa Chung at Alexa Chung For Madewell Launch Party

A few of you might not understand why I have put this outfit on the list, but I must admit that I have a slight weak spot for Alexa's chic granny outfits. This cream skirt is so lovely and delicate and I really like how it is worn with the long, brown cardigan and the black, patent boots.


8. Diane Krüger at the New Chanel Boutique Opening in Soho

Once again, Diane Krüger proves why she is such a style icon. It looks like this ruffle dress was made for her, and the boots seems like they were made for the dress. I love how one of the shoulders holds up the dress, while the other hangs below her shoulders. It adds such a flirty, sexy feel to the outfit.


7. Chanel Iman at the New Chanel Boutique Opening in Soho

This is one of those beautiful dresses that you dream of finding when you visit a vintage store.The shape and sequins is what makes this dress. And I adore that she wears her red Chanel bag with it because a dress like this needs a bold accessory to bring it out even more.


6. Olivia Palermo Backstage at the Ports 1961 Spring 2011 Fashion Show

Even though I am not such a huge fan of Olivia Palermo on The City, I am not going to hold that against her when it comes to the way she dresses. She does have a great talent when it comes to combining different patterns, colours and fabrics. And she always has the best accessories, especially large and stunning rings.






5. Lily Donaldson at the New Chanel Boutique Opening in Soho

This is one of those outfits that I want to copy every detail of and wear right now. I am a huge fan of contrasts in an outfit, so therefore I really like the elegant shape of Lily Donaldson's blazer teamed together with a sheer white t-shirt and torn denim shorts. And she looks so cute with her hair like that.


4. Rachel Bilson at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Spring 2011

Lately, I have been obsessed with leather shorts, so Rachel Bilson's outfit definitely hit home. Also, her blouse is gorgeous and it reminds me of an Acne blouse that I am lusting for at the moment. To be honest though, I think it is her pink lipstick that makes me really love this outfit; it adds such a beautiful freshness!

  

3. Blake Lively at the New Chanel Boutique Opening in Soho

There is a lot of talk about Blake Lively's style; some love it and others hate it. I am one of those who most of the times love it. I often prefer her style to Leighton's, and she has hands down the best wardrobe in Gossip Girl. At the opening of the new Chanel store in Soho, Blake was glowing. Stepping out of her comfort zone (showing boobs and legs) really suits her. And the top half of this Chanel dress is perfection.

  

2. Sarah Jessica Parker at Fashion's Night Out

Those of you who have been reading Style Spot for a while know how obsessed I am with sequins, so there is no surprise why Sarah Jessica Parker is listed as a number 2. I am officially in love with her jacket! It looks so good with that lavender/baby blue dress. And her heels are crazy cool. I want!


1. Blake Lively at Fashion's Night Out

When I first saw Blake in this gorgeous, graphic Marchesa dress, I gasped out loud. The reason why is because I love it when celebrities have a yellow moment (if they wear it right that is!) The strapless top half and the floaty bottom, makes a flirty and girly dress which I am always a fan of. In the beginning, I couldn't get used to the Louboutins she is wearing, as I thought the red steals some of the attention of the dress, but now I love it as I feel it compliments it perfectly.
