Teen fashion: How to get Ashlee Simpson's style for less

by Starbuck21

Created on: June 29, 2008

Ashlee Simpson has stepped out of her sister's shadow with her own chic style accessorized with rock 'n' roll accents to express her rocker persona. Favoring neutral colors like gray, black, and white, Ashlee shows her fashion personality with mini dresses and skirts and sexy high heal shoes. Long beaded necklaces, scarves, and fedoras are some of the accessories she uses to finish off her look.

At the 2008 Bravo Supershow in Germany, Ashlee looked effortlessly chic in a white blouse tucked into a high-wasted black skirt. In order to get this look, wear a white and fitted t-shirt (like the Brilliant Basic Top from Forever 21, $5.50) and a fitted black skirt (such as the High Wasted Sateen Skirt from Charlotte Russe, $22.99). Accessorize this striking outfit with white pumps (Gabriella Rocha, $40), a long black beaded necklace (Midnight Chain Necklace from Charlotte Russe, $7.80), and a black scarf (Linen Weave Scarf from Forever 21, $10.80). Ashlee also looked demurely fashionable at 2008 Kids Choice Awards outfit with a gray mini dress paired with wildly colored heals. You can steal her look for a steal with the Tweed Tube Dress from Charlotte Russe ($26.99). Pair with brightly colored peep toe heals such as the magenta Yogurt Heals from Forever 21 ($22) and a black cuff bracelett.

If you want to sport a more casual Ashlee Simpson look, wear a pair of gray skinny jeans (such as the High Waste 3 button Skinny style that you can get at Wet Seal) and top with a sleeveless black blouse (you can purchase the Sleeveless Criss-Cross Shirt from Forever 21 or the Cowl Neck Racer Back Top from Charlotte Russe). To complete the look, accessorize with a black tote bag, hoop earrings, and black heals. Forever 21 has a faux leather black tote bag for under $40, and Wet Seal features Side Cutout Peep Toe Heals for $22.50.

Another way to emulate Ashlee Simpson's look is through her hair and makeup. Ashlee has been experimenting with her hair, going from dark brown to blond to (most recently) a deep red color. In order to capture her tress style, skip the dye job (which can be both expensive and messy) and instead invest in a hair relaxer and straightening iron. Blow-dry your hair straight, and then use a straightening iron to achieve her super-straight locks. Part your hair far off to the side and brush your bangs down over your forehead. Regarding makeup, use dark shadow around your eye. Use a smoky color like Maybelline's Dark Sky. Top off with a blissfully happy newlywed smile!
