We love spotting a high street ensemble on the red carpet, and this week’s frock-off war comes courtesy of two A-list darlings in our favourite high street store’s garms.
Vanessa Hudgens and Mindy Kaling were recently spotted in an emerald green Topshop jacquard skirt and crop top look, with both ladies opting to style it very differently.
Vanessa landed first dibs on the gorgeous evening look, wearing it to promote her film Gimme Shelter at the Sirius XM Studios back in January. Vanessa paired the crop top and longer midi skirt with simple black pumps and a stack of pretty rings, while tumbling curls, a soft, smoky eye and a slick of berry red on the nails completed the look.
Competing for the style prize in a slightly modified version of the same outfit is Mindy Kaling, who opted for a shorter length skirt at the The Paley Center for Media’s Paley Fest 2014 event last week. Peep toe Louboutin pumps, glossy curls and evening perfect eye make-up rounded off the look nicely.
So, whose look wins in the style stakes? We love the varied hemlines, and feel Mindy’s shortened skirt length works better to create a mote flattering silhouette; the look runs too ‘straight’ on Vanessa. Seems like the crown’s yours for the taking this week, Ms. Kaling!
Whose look wins for you?
