1 Look 3 Ways — Selena's Casual Floral Sundress

by - 21:29

Style is a very personal thing. Not everyone has the same boundaries, not everyone will enjoy the same cuts and patterns. Recreating celeb looks can be especially daunting when you don't share the same body type as the actual celeb or the same budget for said outfit.

It was with all of this in mind  and a huge wave of inspiration for more fashion-focused posts on my part  that I decided to show you how to style three different outfits, all inspired on this one look by the fashion goddess herself, Selena Gomez. We're all aware of how big of a change Selena's personal style has gone through in the past year or so and, personally, I'm all for the "new" Selena! I do think that it's a bit harder to recreate her looks to a T since she's wearing so much vintage lately, but it's not impossible to nail the same vibe as her original looks, with a few twists here and there!


I've picked this outfit because it's ridiculously easy to adapt to your own personal style, depending on the type of jacket and accessories you add onto the outfit or even the pattern of the dress you pick! I think the biggest change in this look that will depend from person to person is the amount of skin you'd like to show — some of us prefer not to show as much cleavage, some of us don't feel comfortable showing a lot of leg — and that's fine! Just adjust the look to something you'd feel comfortable in walking down the street, instead of going for an exact match and ending up feeling self conscious all day long. I've also added a few more options under every outfit option, just in case you're looking for a different brand/online store, etc!

In option #1, I'm taking a lighter, most conservative and feminine take on Selena's look. Instead of going for dark colours all around, we've got a lot of light pastel shades to help soften the look, which are also a better option  to help you deal warmer temperatures anyways! The cleavage is also a lot more moderate and the sleeves will help you stay warmer in Spring. Overall, this is the safer option as far as this kind of look goes and the easiest for a lot of people to pull off while still resembling Selena's original look.

As for the prices, the Forever 21 sunglasses are 7€, the Glamorous floral dress is 42€ via Topshop, the H&M white sneakers are 19,99€ and the H&M cream round bag is 30€. Overall, the entire look will be just short of 100€, which is less than Selena's bag alone costs!
Option #2 is perfect for everyone who likes the overall vibe of Selena's look but isn't the biggest fan of dresses. By replacing the dress with a romper, you can achieve a very similar look, without compromising your level of comfort and mobility! You're still showing a considerable amount of leg, the amount cleavage you show is adaptable thanks to the little tie in the front, but the overall tones are very close to hers.

As for the prices, the Glamorous floral playsuit is 46€ via Topshop, the H&M white sneakers are 19,99€, the Forever 21 round bag is 17€ and the Boohoo round sunglasses are 10€. Overall, the entire look will cost you 93€, even less than the first, softer inspired look!
Finally, for option #3, I'm giving you the closest match I could find for the original outfit! We've got a longer dress with a smaller pattern than the one we found in the playsuit. The colour match isn't exact, but then again, neither is the price, so if you do want a closer match to the original, do keep in mind it's a lot more expensive, but not impossible.

As for the prices, the Boohoo maxi dress is 40€, the H&M white sneakers are 19,99€, the Forever 21 round bag is 17€ and the Boohoo round sunglasses are 10€. Overall, the whole outfit will cost you 87€, making it the most affordable option out of all three, as well as the closest match out of all of them!
I hope you found some new items for your wishlist, or at the very least some outfit inspo! Do let me know if there's any other outfits from celebs/bloggers/TV characters you'd like me to do a post on and I'll try my best to come up with another one of these posts in the future. Don't forget to tell me in the comments which of the three options is your favourite!
