Style tips from the week's best-dressed: week 18, 2012

From up-styled boyfriend jeans to socks and sandals, the week's best-dressed women show us how to put a winning look together.


Check your balance
You don't have to save ripped jeans for the weekend, just be sure to up-style them like actress Jordana Brewster who topped hers with a chic Fedora, Chanel bag and ballet flats for a timelessly elegant look.


A stand-out accessory can make an outfit
Go ahead and dress down so long as your feet are walking works of art like Kylie Minogue who teamed her boyfriend jeans with Prada's flame-throwing beauties.


Cheat your feet
Is it spring? Summer? Deep mid winter? Hippy-chic style-setter Laura Bailey has given up waiting for the sun and gone out in a super-summery look but avoided frostbitten toes by slipping a neutral pair of ankle socks under her Miu Miu sandals.

Vintage queen
The devil's in the detail for a retro look, as girly singer Taylor Swift shows by embracing kitten-heel peeptoes, a sweetheart neckline and large shades for a sunny stroll.

This season's 'modern' look
Take a leaf out of model Edie Campbell's book and a shirt out of your wardrobe (even better, your boyfriend's) - silky, cotton, printed, plain, coloured or white. Tuck it in. Button it up. Wear it under a jumper, a dress, a coat... et voilĂ .


Reappraise your staples
A biker jacket is still the best way to give a cocktail dress some edge, but why not try a colourful one like Sarah Jessica Parker's this spring? (white stilettos optional).


Dare to wear red
Trouser suits are having a moment right now but Freida Pinto's gorgeous Gucci scarlet take on the traditional tux really caught our eye. Try bypassing the black and treating your wardrobe to an injection of colourful tailoring.
