Look for Less: Kate Bosworth
Look for Less this week is examining Kate Bosworth’s style while she is strolling the rainy streets of NYC. The fashionable actress looks ready for warmer temperatures with her brighter attire, but is braving the spring showers by pairing her skirt with accessories in more subdued colors.

Sunny skies or not, the rain has clearly not gotten in the way of Kate’s desire to put on a pair of shades. The classic wayfarer fits perfectly with the rest of her timeless accessories, and this pair by Peppers is equally chic.
Continuing with the classic pieces in her outfit, a trench coat is truly an investment everyone should make – if you look back into fashion history, you will notice that the trench coat is a tried and true staple of both a man’s and woman’s wardrobe. It will likely never go out of style. Between its neutral shades and lighter weight, this coat is perfect for spring and fall.
Kate’s long, yet loose pencil skirt is another great investment. The bolder shade is great for spring and summer, and, like the other pieces in her outfit, this skirt will be in style for a long time to come. (While the skirt featured above by Royal Robbins is in “surf,” it is available an a redder, “watermelon” hue.)
A handbag like Kate’s, with its chain link strap and basic black, structured shape, is another accessory which will transcend any kind of trend for years to come. It’s not an over-sized sack, or a minuscule clutch – just a good basic size that can be paired with any outfit you put together. It’s buckle on the front adds an eye-catching detail as well. This purse by Boulevard will definitely give you plenty of mileage.
Not quite as open as your typical strappy sandal, Kate’s shoes cover much of the foot, but are still open on top and in back, with a sling-back strap. This is the most modern feature of her entire outfit, but still blends perfectly with the rest of her pieces. These shoes are great for spring and summer, but can be saved for any freak warm waves in the fall as well.
