Stars Love a Bargain Too: Gwen Stefani’s Express Coat

ABB/RRAB/ZOB/ZDS/WENN

Gwen Stefani usually has pretty luxe taste — from her Galliano gowns to Lanvin dresses to pieces from her own L.A.M.B. collection, it’s all usually a little out of our price range. So we were more than thrilled to spot her in this trendy houndstooth coat from Express! The sharp and trendy coat is $198 and is available in stores only. Click here to find a location nearest you, or snag this look-a-like for only $65 at nyandcompany.com.

Gossip Girl: It’s All About Coats!

INF; Michael Swarbrick/INF(2)

From Blake Lively‘s Coach boots, to Leighton Meester’s designer dress, Gossip Girl has inspired our fashion choices a lot lately. And now that we’re in the market for a new winter coat, our fave show is providing inspiration again with an abundance of cute outerwear. We’ve got the girls’ looks for real — and for a steal!

Blake rocked Ever’s Los Feliz leather hoodie jacket, $715. Unfortunately, you can only get it in black, as the red was created especially for the show. Or get the look for less with this Lux Stay Golden Bomber, $128.

Taylor Momsen recently wore Lauren Moffatt’s Hooded Toggle Jacket, $541, pairing it with purple tights to really make it pop. If you like Taylor’s toggle coat, try this Esprit Toggle Coat, $142.

Leighton went more mod in Tory Burch’s Mercedes Trench, on sale now for $798 down from $1995. The patent navy blue is the perfect contrast to her red accent pieces. Try this Michael Michael Kors Patent Trench Coat, $199, for a gentler price.

Get a Plaid Coat like Katherine Heigl!

Ramey

Katherine Heigl has a great easy street style — we can always imagine ourselves wearing her outfits (and wanting to!). The 27 Dresses star headed out for a birthday dinner in L.A. in a fun, ruffled-plaid coat paired simply with jeans tucked into tan suede boots. We love how the plaid coat takes care of the whole outfit — and keeps you warm at the same time! We found Katherine’s actual Juicy Couture jacket for you and the look for a whole lot less.

We don’t typically associate Kate Moss and Jessica Simpson‘s style, but on a chilly night in New York last week, the two stars had the same style on the brain — a classic black tuxedo jacket. Kate wore her own TopShop design to the 7th on Sale gala, while Jessica hit the town in jeans and boots with her satin-lapeled style. We love how these two fashionistas show how versatile this iconic piece is. . .and now we have to have one of our own! Check out our picks on how to get the look for real and for a major steal!
