Cameron Diaz - Mission Accomplished!

A few months ago, I'd made a mediocre attempt at finding a dress like Cameron Diaz's fabulous black and white graphic Chanel shift. I've been waiting not too patiently for this very similar Arden B. dress to go on sale, but it's still almost $200.

But now I've finally found a worthy facsimile!

Nude Pumps, $26.50


Hoop Earrings, $2.80


GRAND TOTAL $93.65

Reader Request: Lily Allen

Not one but TWO readers requested a frugal version of Lily Allen's adorable summertime look.

Here's the frugal version. Tell me what you think, ladies:

Pastel Striped Sundress, $44.50

Gold Strappy Sandals, $29


Gold Om Necklace, $20
