Through ‘Weekly Wardrobe,’ we’ll give you some great ideas about what colors and pieces to wear for the week, hopefully making your life a whole lot easier…
This week, we are inspired by the summer style of actress Gabrielle Union. Spotted at the Bridgehampton Polo Challenge in the Hamptons this past weekend, she showed off her flair for pretty, solid color dresses. Her style is clean and classic and since her relationship with Dwayne Wade, newly of the Miami Heat, had been made official, you can spot her around that steamy town showing off lots of arm and leg. Here are some recent shots of Gabrielle and we’ve found budget-conscious versions for you to wear as the season winds down.
MONDAY
Gabrielle was casual and comfortable at the Bridgehampton Polo Challenge Closing Ceremony with Dwayne where she wore a clingy white knit dress. We found a similar dress in a halter style and it’s on sale!
TUESDAY
Later, she wore a yellow cowl-neck number. The dress we found will work great for the office with muted shoes and accessories or jet-black extras for a stunning party look.
WEDNESDAY
For a night on the town, Gabrielle chose simple separates. A black jacket will make this suitable for the more casual workplace, otherwise keep the tank and add a longer skirt and change to the mini later. A fitted tank will keep you cool on the dance floor or while strolling the city, add a few strands of necklaces, black pumps and a black clutch to bring this look together.
THURSDAY
Hoss Intropia Halterneck Tribal Print Dress, $190 at mysugarland.co.uk
You’ll usually find Gabrielle in a solid color from head to toe, but here she pulled out a Gucci tribal print mini dress to attend the Alonzo Mourning Summer Groove party. The dress we found uses the same colors with a more forgiving shape.
FRIDAY
Wrap front romper, $92 at missme.com
Gabrielle made an appearance at the Armani Exchange A/X “Disco Glam” event at the Robertson store in Los Angeles. We love her black deep-cut jumper, but would probably lose the tights with this ensemble. We found a similar longer romper that will work well into the fall.
WEEKEND
Twist-front maxi dress, $85 at johnlewis.com
Fancy plans for the weekend?: Gabrielle wore a stunning floor-length gown to the annual Summer Groove Benefit Dinner at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel on July 17. Red equals impact so keep your accessories simple.
