Sometimes it’s the little touches that take your outfit from average to enviable. Celebrities have stylists to calculate all the complicated nuances of putting together a look, but we aren’t all so fortunate. Luckily, tFS has put together some celeb-inspired styling tips and tricks to help give your look that extra oomph! This week, Pixie Lott, Anne Hathaway, and Eliza Doolittle show us how to keep summer fashion going in coral.
Tip #1: Surprise ‘em with coral brogues like Pixie Lott
A juicy coral is an unexpected color for any shoe, but is especially striking on the sophisticated brogue. Pixie Lott arrived at the airport wearing coral leather brogues by Office, adding a pop of color to her outfit and demonstrating how well coral mixes with fall’s hot color, mustard.

Tip #2: Anne Hathaway mixes coral stripes with patterned trousers
Coral’s warm hue is so versatile you can even mix it with a bold pattern, like Anne Hathway did for an appearance on NBC’s The Today Show. She paired a breezy coral-and-white striped top by Elizabeth and James with patterned palazzo pants by the same designer. The coral in the stripes continues in the pattern of the pant, narrowly avoiding a clash. Hathaway’s oversized hexagon sunglasses complete the updated 70s look.
