Emulating your favourite celebrity’s high-fashion image can be made easy and affordable by looking towards the high-street for those must have looks. With such a vast range of different shops available on the high-street it couldn’t be any easier. Start taking note of some of these great fashion tips that will help you look fabulous and ready to outshine your celebrity style icon.

Find your inspiration first, try looking through weekly gossip magazines, fashion editorials, fashion blogs and celebrity gossip websites to find the celebrity look you admire most. Once you have found your inspiration, take a cut out of the image and start dissecting the image, figuring out which pieces you will need to focus on – is it the dress they are wearing? Do the accessories make the outfit? Realising what it is you like most about the outfit will be the key to helping you recreate the look.

Now you have your main inspiration for your look, it’s time to head to your nearest high-street and start building your outfit. Work from the one key piece and build around it, keeping the essence of the celebrity’s style but don’t forget to add a little bit of your own personality to it as well.

Thanks to celebrity style being so influential nowadays within the fashion industry, it’s more than likely that you will find replica pieces in many high-street fashion stores. A replica ‘it’ bag of the season or must have dress won’t be made to the exact detail of the designer piece that your chosen celebrity was showcasing, but you will find many similarities to high-end pieces on the high-street so be willing to compromise on minor details on the copied version.

Celebrities are great lovers of the high-street too so you might just get the exact look you were going for. Check your weekly fashion and gossip magazines again as they are more than likely to share with you what celebrities are buying from the high-street as well. Don’t wait around; it’s more than likely that these pieces will soon become best sellers for brands, so get your hands on them as quickly as you can.

If that’s not enough for you, then watch out for the latest in celebrity collaborations with high-street brands. Over the past few years, this has become a regular bi-seasonal occurrence with celebrities working together with fashion chains to produce a collection which more or less reflects their own personal style and delves into the type of pieces you would normally see within their wardrobes at a small price of what they would normally pay for these particular garments.

Lastly, no matter which way you choose to recreate celebrity style, it’s always important to remember your accessories to finish off the look. Whether you choose some statement fashion jewellery or killer heels, your outfit will definitely look even more glamorous and expensive with the right finishing.
