Celebrity couples who dress alike

They say the couple that plays together stays together, but what about the couple that dresses the same? We take a look at some of the best, and worst, dress-alikey celebrity couples through the years...

 It's normal for girls to borrow from their boyfriend's wardrobe, but here it's the other way around. Jamie Hince arrived at a photographic exhibition of his band The Kills last night wearing a floral scarf that looks like it belongs to his wife, Kate Moss, while the pair sported his and hers leather jackets.
 Cut from the same goth? Jack White and Karen Elson went monochrome for the Met Ball back in 2009, but their sartorial similarities were not enought to keep this couple together forever.
 Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake were cut from the same cloth - a huge, patchwork piece of denim.
 Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow were together for over three years in the mid 90's and were so into each other that they decided to get matching haircuts.
 It's hard to believe that the fashion world managed accept David and Victoria Beckham back into the fold after this leather catsuit catastrophe.
 We were surprised to hear about the breakdown of Jennifer Lopez and Cris Judd 's marriage after only 9 months - their mutual love of Aztec motifs suggested they were completely in tune.
 Kate Winslet and her dubiously named boyfriend Ned Rocknroll put comfort over style for a transatlantic flight earlier this year. The loved-up couple both wore a grey jacket, black top, jeans and black boots.
 Kanye West has reportedly had a lot of influence on girlfriend Kim Kardashian 's wardrobe, urging her to ditch the ubiquitous body-con dresses for more fashion forward alternatives. Here though, the two are dressed down in matching hoodies.
 Jay-Z and Beyoncé clearly wanted to be comfortable when they stepped out in trainers for a walk through New York with new baby Blue Ivy Carter, but whilst Jay-Z wore classic Nikes, Beyoncé went for wedge sneakers by Isabel Marant, which have become a firm fashion favourite over the last few years.
 Eliza Doolittle and Benji Madden make a great (baseball) team - she has the jacket, he has the cap.

Short and sweet




Dress shorts up or dress them down - it really doesn't matter so long as you keep them brief.

Style tips from the week's best dressed

Want to develop your denim habits like Dree, or bring the holiday vibe to the high street like Fearne? Here's how…


Introduce your midi to ankle socks
Nobody rocks an ankle sock and midi-skirt with quite as much elegance as London Fashion Week ambassador, Laura Bailey, but don't be afraid to try this look at home. Ankle socks neatly fill the oddly proportioned gap between your feet and your hemline that a midi creates. Just make sure you're wearing a heel.

Cut some slack
She may be in character on the set of her latest film 'Can A Song Change Your Life?', but that doesn't stop us lusting after Keira Knightley 's mannish slacks. Rolled up, high-waited and paired with flat loafers, she perfectly channels the Katharine Hepburn look. Maybe you should hire the film's stylist, Keira?


Pretend you're on holiday
Can't get to Saint Tropez? Bring Saint Tropez to you like Fearne Cotton who brought her holiday look to the high street in style. Remember though, we're talking Brigitte Bardot chic here, not bikini tops and flip-flops.


Channel the super-sweet Seventies
The Seventies are making a big comeback for autumn, but get a head start on the trend like Rinko Kikuchi in a high-waisted shorts and tucked-in blouse combo. Remember to pair with suitably solid heels or wedges - this look is not about a stiletto heel ladies.

Weather-proof your look
The sun might have briefly got its hat on, but with weather this schizophrenic it's good to be prepared. Poppy Delevingne nods to summer in her Karl leather shorts, but keeps one foot in thereal world in her heavy boots, slouchy knit and floppy wool hat.

Bring on the cocktails!
Make a summery statement in the city in one of this season's totally tropical prints like Kate Bosworth . All this outfit needs is a Pina Colada and she could be in Jamaica.

Make your outfit do the work
Zoe Saldana 's cotton shirt and skirt make for a great lunch look. The suede ankle boots keep it casual and if you nipped home and swapped them for a pair of chunky heels you could head straight out for the evening.

Navy and black make the perfect pair
From her kooky turban down to her toes, artist and former girlfriend of Ronnie Wood, Ana Araujo , looks chic in satin navy and black blowing apart the myth that they are two colours that shouldn't be seen together.
Wear your denim with flare
You might not be able to part with your skinny jeans entirely, but look how fresh model Dree Hemingway makes these denim flares look. The secret ingredients are a high waistline, a slim-fitting top (tucked in) and some high wedges or boots underneath to add those vital extra inches.

Style tips from the week's best-dressed: week 18, 2012 - (2)

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


If you're dressing up then downplay your trimmings
What's even more perfect than Dakota Fanning's stunning Prada dress? The simple metallic accessories. A mirrored box clutch and chrome-shiny shoes are the perfect non-fussy accompaniments.

Black is always in style
It's easy to get swept up in this season's print frenzy, but if they really aren't your bag then take a tip from glamorous burlesque performer Dita Von Teese who shows that head-to-toe black still has timeless appeal and sophistication. We're also gaga for her personalised Goyard tote.


Gently does it
Eva Mendes' pretty pastel Honor dress would look positively bridal if she'd paired it with sugary accessories. Instead, a fine black belt and delicate sandal stop a girlie gown from teetering into twee territory.

Punctuate with pizzazz
Rock chick Gwen Stefani shows how to do deconstruction in style. Her striped dress could be headed for the beach, but is saved by four statement accessories: high, strappy wedges; bold sunglasses, a chunky silver necklace and her ubiquitous slick of scarlet lipstick.

Have a fling with a statement jacket
If you only invest in one item this spring, make it a statement jacket. Top model Hilary Rhoda's canary-yellow style will ensure you stand out from the crowd.

Add a feminine edge to your spring/summer sportswear
It's a rare day that we can commend Lindsay Lohan on her outfit, but here she's offering something of a masterclass on how to keep your sportswear jacket feminine - just add a flattering pashmina and some printed pumps.

And what not to wear…
There's always at least one wrong 'un at every award ceremony and this week's worst-dressed award goes to this rotter at FHM magazine's 100 Sexiest Women of the Year Awards whose 'assets' were at no point in any danger of being contained within her revealing bandage dress. Trust us when we say, this is the least offensive picture…

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 voilà.


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.


Lauren Conrad Holiday Collection

Lauren Conrad has released her holiday collection, consisting of 17 pieces of girly dresses and tops. The collection ranges in price from $155 - $265. Look for the asymmetrical tops and girly designs.


Gossip Girl Season Finale - Get The Look

The last episode of the season, for televisions most stylish show, Gossip Girl, aired on Monday night with great outfits and killer surprises. The show was complete with a spring wedding with gorgeous dresses and scandalous love affairs.

Serena Vanderwoodsen

This blond beauty was ravishing in her yellow ruffled bridesmaid dress for her mother's wedding. I love everything about this dress, its print, the collar, the key hole cleavage, the belt....everything.


Where is this beautiful spring dress from? Its Ralph Lauren Spring 2008 collection. Its called the Ruffled Fillipa Dress and its on sale for $3599.00 at polo.com.


Later in the show, Serena was out walking the streets of New York wearing a pair of skinny jeans, a tank top and a sparkly shrug. She is totally dressed down, but only a girl with this style can make it look this classy.


The cute caplet is by designer, Christian Cota and its a little difficult to find a place to purchase it. One place that sells this designer is Georgina (the store, not the character) in New York City. The tank top is by Alexander Wang, the jeans are Wrangler, and the bag is a Chanel.


Blair Waldorf

Blair looked cute at the beginning of the episode when she was giving Dan advice on how to be mean.


This red and white top is Marc by Marc Jacobs, Flock of Hearts Print top, $188.00 at shopbop.com.


Later on Blair throws on a jacket to go to the park. This to die for green trench is by Diane von Furstenberg and its called the Bitiri Jacket in Island Clover Bud Green. Its available at dvf.com for $219.00.



The yellow bag is the Gucci Hysteria Bag and the shoes are by Stuart Weitzman called Loopy in fire for $288.00 at revolveclothing.com.


Blair's dress to Lily and Bart's wedding was the perfect dress for an outdoor spring wedding. This pink Collette Dinnigan dress from the 2008 cruise collection is available at collettedinnigan.com and its called the Peonie Pink Silk Lom Halter Neck Bubble Dress.


Lastly, Blair is getting ready to leave with Chuck to Tuscany and what a more perfect outfit than this navy blue sailor dress for the private plane.



This must have dress is the Bettie Page Clothing Line "Captain" Dress available at bluevelvetvintage.com.


Blair's super cute sun hat goes perfectly with this dress. The hat is by Eric Javits and its available at saksfifthavenue.com for $150.00.



Georgina


Georgina was put in her place in the park by Dan and Blair. She was a nasty character, but we do love her leather jacket. 


This grey leather jacket is called the Dallas Leather Jacket by Ya Ya Aflalo. Score this Georgina look at shopbop.com for $726.00.


The skirt is a great match for this jacket. We found this Lux Pleated Bustle Back Skirt at Urban Outfitters for only $39.99.
