The Look: Everyone by now knows the "hippie" look, but not necessarily how to master it. No one wants to look like they raided Mary Kate Olsen's grandma closet in hopes to find some vintage curtains to drape across your body (or maybe you do, God bless you.) These offenders pile on every loose article of clothing from their closet alongside a string of feathers, a series of long necklaces, wavy hair and any other breezy pieces they can get their blinged-out, vintage-ringed hands on. This unfortunately is what happens when trying to perfect the boho-chic look. However, Demi shows us that by mixing in a few structured, bad-ass separates, the look screams trendy without being too decade-specific.

Hat, $45, Modcloth.com; Tunic, $148, Free People; Necklace, $5.80, Forever21; Leather shorts, $97, Lulus.com; Wedges, $154, Jeffrey Campbell; Vest, $50, Modcloth.com; Bangles, $6.80, Forever21; Nail Polish, $16, Deborah Lippmann "Hit Me With Your Best Shot"

Getting It Right: Miss Lovato puts a tough spin on the 70s-inspired pieces. Utilize your hippie-esque items, like a breezy, cream colored tunic and one (just one!) long feather necklace to set the vibe. Add in a funky hat to top off flowy tresses, along with some wood wedges in a bold pop of color. Toughen it all up by selecting faux leather shorts, studded bangles and a metallic grey lacquer for your mani. You'll be the edgiest hippie in town.

The Look: Fruit-inspired pieces have been quite a hit this season, whether that be a pair of banana-adorned wooden heels or strawberry as charms on a statement necklace. Leighton Meester, filming the upcoming season of Gossip Girl as Upper East Side's queen bee, Blair Waldorf, is showing us exactly why the hit CW show doesn't just make strides with its scandalous plot lines and sexy male eye candy. The styling is to die for, and this Stella McCartney skirt oozes spring/summer style. Leave it to Blair to match her shoes and her handbag (all the while probably mastering some sort of vengeful plan, who knows?), but that works when you're looking for a professional feel to counteract a festive, flirty office outfit.

Bangles, $58, Nordstrom; Necklace, $40, Modcloth.com; Top, $50, Topshop; Handbag, $348, Michael Kors; Skirt, $63, Modcloth.com; Pumps, $92, Topshop

Getting It Right: Start by selecting a skirt or dress with a fruit pattern, such as this one from Modcloth that boasts some pears. To avoid looking like your grandma's tablecloth, utilize youthful separates like a flirty ruffled top, glitzy bangles and a long necklace. Bring it all together by selecting a bold accent color found in the skirt's pattern to select your shoe and bag option. While it seems a little silly to purchase a pair of bright orange or purple pumps if you're on a budget, you actually can get tons of use out of colored heels. Think of them as your new neutral companion; anytime you throw on an LBD or nude/grey ensemble, pair them with your bold pumps to stay on top of the trends.

The Look: I have a chambray shirt that I have been meaning to pair with unconventional separates sitting in my closet staring at me. I always manage to throw it on with a pair of white pants or shorts and call it a day. While that works, it's a lot more fun to experiment with unexpected pairings. And no, I don't mean going all Lady Gaga and selecting green hair with bright red lips and see-through dress. Brooklyn Decker demonstrates perfectly how to use a classic wardrobe staple in a way that works beautifully for our demographic. Wear this kind of outfit to your summer internship in the city, and meet up with your friends for a drink later without changing a thing. You won't be too dolled up for work, but you won't be too casual for later.

Earrings, $4.80, Forever21; Shirt, $30, Zara; Nail Polish, $8, "Chinchilly" by Essie; Skirt, $59, Asos.com; Pumps, $39, Lulus.com; Belt, $10, Pitaya

Getting It Right: Start by selecting a chambray or pale denim button-down shirt. Make sure it's slightly fitted and not too loose (this is why my shirt doesn't play well with other items). Instead of a khaki skirt or solid-colored bottom, go for a metallic printed option for a more playful, dressed-up vibe. Add a belt to accent your waist and tie the look together, and don't even think about wearing flats or sandals. This kind of skirt calls for sleek pumps to complement its fancy flair. Throw on some dangly earrings and the ever-fashionable grey nail polish to finish it off.

The Look: This kind of casual, grubby trend has been seen on all the stars lately, especially at music festivals like Coachella. They key is to incorporate one or two fashion-forward pieces into an outfit whose separates are probably already hanging in your closets. The worn-in look is characterized by an equally as laid-back 'tude and non-fussy hair. Forget about the glitz and glam; you can still be just as chic even in your comfiest of attire. Plus, this is also a great look for when you just rolled out of bed and have to make it to summer classes in a hurry. So ditch the athletic shorts and messy bun; cozy meets couture thanks to Whitney.

Cardigan, $150, reissonline.com; Tee, $85, shopthetrendboutique.com; Shorts, $66, TopShop; Shoes, $23, Forever21; Bag, $32, Nine West; Sunglasses, $5.50, Charlotte Russe

Getting It Right: Start with a random vintage tee that's probably laying in your drawer. Add a pair of striped or pattern shorts and layer a thin, soft, long cardigan in case it's a little breezy. Go for some cool oxford-esque kicks to achieve the same casual vibe as Whitney (dainty sandals don't bring the look together like these shoes do). Add a metallic tote and some floral, retro styled sunglasses for a bit of girly appeal. Leave hair down and wavy, and keep your make-up simple.

The Look: "Poison Ivy," as host Giuliana Rancic nicknamed winner Alyssa Campanella last night, stole the show and the crown for the title of Miss USA 2011. Even though she wowed with her long, auburn locks and flashy smile, it was her forest green, non-traditional, fashion-forward gown that really impressed me. But as college students and recent grads, it's not like we have anywhere to go to wear a floor length evening gown, complete with glitz and glam. So channel the beauty queen by opting for the same flawless color scheme and dolled-up look for any formal occasion you happen to attend.

2-in-1 Flat Iron/Curling Iron, $40, Macy's; Dress, $69, asos.com; Too Faced Smokey Eye Palette, $36, Sephora; Laura Mercier Lip Gloss, $22, Nordstrom; Heels, $80, Bakers; Clairol Hair Dye in "Cinnaberry," $9, Target

Getting It Right: By rocking this deep teal shade in a sexy cut-out silhouette, you'll be giving the pageant girl a nod in her direction without the weight of the long train and complicated bustle. Achieve the sparkles and shine by displaying it on your feet with show-stopping platforms. Go for a smokey eye with a DIY eye palette, and slick on high-shine gloss to plump up your pout. Amp up the volume of your strands by getting defined curls like Alyssa with a 2-in-1 heat tool. Want to go all the way? Try a semi-permanent auburn hair dye to get a whole new look. Just because you're not Miss USA doesn't mean you can't achieve an award-winning look.

The Look: Jason Wu's resort line showed chic, simplistic looks that can be recreated effortlessly. While runway ensembles can sometimes be hard to translate into streetwear, this preppy, girly outfit may already exist in your closet. It's clear that florals aren't going anywhere, so read on to figure out how to mimic this fashionable look that is perfect for any summertime picnic or daytime errands.

Blouse, Old Navy, $15; Sweater, J. Crew, $98; Eye Shadow, Hot Topic, $2.99; Sandals, Asos.com, $86; Shorts, Free People, $188; Foundation, Stila, $44

Getting It Right: Select a pair of bright floral-printed shorts, and don't be afraid to be matchy-matchy. The simple lines of a light cashmere sweater layered on top of a collared blouse exudes preppiness, so picking colors within the pattern to match works. Opt for a different colored sandal to also tie in the color scheme, and keep your skin fresh and illuminated with a correcting foundation. If you want to get a little funky, swipe on a sheer bright shade on your lids a la Jason Wu's model.

The Look: When temperatures rise, fussy, over-styled fashion will just bog you down. The key is simplicity and chic minimalism as Maria Menounos demonstrates on the cover of June's Self magazine. Her basic tank dress in a bold, sunflower-yellow shade isn't trying too hard, and it's a perfect ensemble to rock doing really any activity this season. Whether you're grabbing a bite in between shopping some boutiques or catching up with a friend poolside, this versatile and subtle style is on point.

Dress, American Apparel, $32; Earrings, Kendra Scott "Danielle," $60; Nail Polish, Chanel "Inattendu," $25; Belt, Gap, $30; Airbrush Self-Tanner, Clinique, $21; Cream Blush, Yves Saint Laurent, $38; Sandals, Tory Burch, $150; Bracelet, Forever 21; $4.80

Getting It Right: Don't overaccessorize or pile on the makeup to achieve the same effortless appeal that Maria does. The turquoise earrings complement the yellow dress perfectly, while the belt adds some interest without getting too crazy. The funky bracelet ties everything together, and we took the liberty of adding some comfy, yet fashionable, footwear to the look even though Maria's goin' barefoot. Elongate your fingers with a pale, nude polish, and make your cheeks pop with a cream formula for your cheeks in a bright fuschia (it'll go on sheer!) Score some beautifully bronzed legs a la the cover girl by spraying your gams with an airbrush self-tanner. Rub on some olive oil and lemon juice if you get streaky.
