Emma Stone pulls off fashion no-no with ease at premiere of Friends With Benefits
If you’re one of those fashionistas who refuses to wear pink and red together, for fear of looking like a life-sized, walking valentine, you may want to rethink your steadfast style rules. Recently, we spotted a pink-and-red look on Emma Stone that left us seriously swooning – and we think it might have the same effect on even the most stubborn style stars. The fashion forward starlet arrived at the New York City premiere of Friends with Benefits, held at iconic Ziegfeld Theater on Monday, July 18th wearing a Giambattista Valli frock fresh off the designer’s Fall 2011 runway.
Emma’s amazing pick features a bright red cashmere sweater and fuchsia pink peplum-style skirt, and we are already planning ways to copy the look for less this fall! She finished her look to perfection, opting for minimal jewelry, a contrasting bronze clutch bag and drool-worthy, nude Christian Louboutin platform pumps. If you’re still not totally sold on the idea of pairing pink and red together, read on for more style tips that may just change your mind about the fresh color combination.
Style rules were meant to be broken – remember when our mothers forbade us to wear white after Labor Day? That same irreverence applies to the pink-with-red rule. In fact, we think it’s the perfect palate to transition your summer brights into a fall-appropriate wardrobe. Once the weather starts to cool off, try mixing your favorite bright pink pieces with more subdued reds in your closet. If Emma’s full-on color block look intimidates you, start small by wearing your favorite red heels with your go-to-pink handbag or scarf. You’ll slowly ease into the trend, while extending the life of your summery bright pinks!
Emma paired her stunning dress with nude heels, which was a perfect pick for steamy July. If you’re interested in giving a similar ensemble a try come fall, remember to anchor your bright colors with a black shoe for star-approved style all year! What do you think of Emma’s gorgeous dress? Are you bold enough to copy the look?
