Style Star for May: Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez appears to be growing up before our eyes – and we love it!  With a new high-profile romance and a starring role in Monte Carlo (out July 1), the young starlet appears to be making bolder statements on the red carpet such as rocking cut-out sides and notice-me shades of crimson and amethyst.  Here’s a round-up of our favorite recent looks from the adorable youngster. 

At the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in Dolce & Gabbana

For her first official outing as part of this cuter-than-cute celebrity couple, Selena rocked a simple chiffon Dolce & Gabbana gown in a ravishing shade of red.  Everything about this look is perfection –accenting an effortless silhouette with gold drop earrings and a bangle.  Wouldn’t you love to hear how the conversation shook down where they decided that Biebs would match his pocket square to her dress?  I would!!!

At the Billboard Music Awards in Dolce & Gabbana

When it comes to Selena’s red carpet ensembles, she always sports outfits that are mature, stylish and all around fabulous. We especially love this Dolce and Gabbana number she wore to the Billboard Awards because the cut outs and high slit add an element of sophistication to a dress that could otherwise have looked like just another simple black dress. It’s refreshing to see the singer sporting a look that is unexpected, fresh, and equally as fun as the LBD. We also must point out Gomez’s lovely red shoes, which add the perfect pop of color to her look and stand out, just like her amazing dress.

At the People’s Choice Awards in Paule Ka

Pale pink is quite a difficult color to pull off because often it can make people look washed out. Fortunately, this hue flatters Selena’s glowing complexion. We are big fans of the one shoulder as well as the sheer fabric that forms a wave diagonally across the dress, thus adding much excitement and flair. We also love Gomez’s curly hair that works seamlessly with the flowly fabric.

At the Kid’s Choice Awards in Christian Cota with a Lauren Merkin Clutch

Selena stepped out for the Kid’s Choice Awards in a perfectly casual outfit by Christian Cota.  Camilla Skovgaard’s heels add a fashion-forward pop of color.  I love Selena’s Lauren Merkin clutch.  It’s a great addition to her youthful look.

At the premiere of Never Say Never in Reem Acra

Miss Gomez steps out to support her boyfriend in a very daring Reem Acra dress.  I love that the dress is purple, which adds prestige and flirtation.  Her little pops of sparkle from her bag to her shoes are well put together. She’s ready to rock the night away with her love.

At the St. Bernard Project event in a dress by Hype and Shoes by Tory Burch  

My favorite things to wear mix comfort with style and this dress looks like it has both of those bases covered.  The subtle studded detailing showcases another thing I love in a dress – pockets!  I’m also obsessing over her two-toned Tory Burch sandals.
