Celebrities with a unique personal style

Celebrities with a unique personal style

Glamor L.A. style even bohemian chic and other intermediate looks.

Lois Joy Johnson, AARP

By the time she turns 50, each woman has a fashion formula that makes her feel elegant, comfortable, and self-confident. When we finally find a "look" we like, we stick with it and buy specific items over and over that become our hallmark, like striped boatneck tees and leopard shoes. But the real secret to personal style, for seasoned shoppers and clothing users like us, is never to let it look out of date. These 10 celebrities have a distinctive style of their own. Take a look and get inspired.

Sharon Stone: L.A.-style glamor

Stone, 61, brings sophisticated jackets and tailor suits with a sporty edge by pairing them with racing pants and sneakers and adding a classic Hollywood flair with red lipstick, a stylish blonde over-the-shoulder cut, sunglasses and a fine leather bag. Everything she wears has unexpected details: her bags are bright blue or red, the black leggings are pirate cut, the ones she wears with an oversized hoodie, the sweatpants are long and wide, and the jacket comes to the waist to shape it. What makes this style work is the theory of the attraction of opposites.

Sarah Jessica Parker: eclectic and colorful

Parker, 54, splashes everyday jeans and dresses with glitter, color, and detail. Her super-long locks - a mix of brown and blonde - hint at a preference for extremes, but it's the story-telling midi dresses, voluminous skirts, Mary Janes-style shoes with big sparkly buckles (she even wears them with purple socks!) and tailored Scottish coats in contrasting colors that tell your style story. Even basic overalls get a magical touch with folded boots and a feminine top. What makes this style work is a brave attitude and a sense of creativity when dressing.

Tracee Ellis Ross: Fabulous with custom-made clothing

Ross begins his style with an incredible cloud of textured hair that is sometimes knotted, in a bun, twisted or braided. Next, we see her dressed in oversized, structured tailor jackets and suits, with sneakers, message shirts and sweatshirts, and dressing shorts and heels. The 47-year-old Ross customizes the imposing striped jackets and dresses coats with a belt or by pulling up the sleeves, and even makes chic sewing one-piece suits and funnel collar vests look normal every day. What makes this style work is to treat serious clothing informally and vice versa.

Jennifer Aniston: in black and minimalist

Aniston stays true to a color theme in black as the basis for her clean, modern wardrobe of super-simple dresses and jeans (she occasionally ventures into white). Her uniform in totally neutral colors is designed to stay fashionable, with each garment carefully prepared in terms of cut and details (especially the necklines) and the ability to highlight her highly toned and shaped silhouette. There are no baggy, oversized pieces in this wardrobe, but when 50-year-old Aniston wears a mid-calf skirt or wide-leg pants, you'll see she pairs them with a body-hugging bodice, giving her gives definition. What makes this style work is staying within a color palette, so mixing old and new pieces is a breeze.

Julianne Moore: bohemian and elegant

59-year-old Moore likes to elvis presley leather jacket a touch of comfort to her style: long skirts, midi dresses, and baggy pants are her current recipe for looking good and feeling fashionable. She wears baggy sweaters with pleated skirts, pleated dresses with baggy leather boots, and even adds a cocoon-shaped raincoat with her leggings.
