Zoe Saldana: Fabulous in Neutral Grey

Some women look stunning at first glance, and then there are some who are pretty, but become even more beautiful as time passes. They grow on you; slowly yet so surely that at the end of the day, you can’t stop looking at them. That’s how we see Zoe Saldana. She may not be a Jennifer Lopez but she is indeed beautiful. She’s also very stylish, and seriously knows how to dress on and off the red carpet.

For her trip to the salon early this month, the “Columbiana” star wore a grey wrap mini, paired it with a white button down, then styled it up with a grey scarf around her neck. It was a very simple outfit but she looked gorgeous. Here’s Zoe for you:

Beautiful girl, beautiful smile, and beautiful outfit, yes? We can’t deny that the scarf did the trick in making the look extra fabulous. It added that bit of flair and made her look elegant. We don’t know where Zoe got her scarf, but with its classic solid grey color, finding a “sub” will be a breeze. One brand you can count on to offer scarves in a multitude of solid colors would be Love Quotes.

Below is a the Love Quotes Italian Linen/Viscose Hand Knotted Fringe Scarf in Mercury. The piece retails at USD88 over at Singer22. There are also a couple of other places where you can find Love Quotes scarves – Tobi, RevolveClothing, Zappos, Shopbop, SAKS, and 6pm so where to buy it is really up to your preference:

That said, if you’re looking to copy Zoe’s style here, simply grab the scarf and check this post for skirt suggestions. Finish the outfit with your favorite white button down and flat sandals and voila! You’re good to go!

Mad about Mad Men? We sure are! So it’s only expected that we’re one of the first to pounce on Banana Republic‘s limited edition Mad Men Collection. The brand collaborated with Emmy-winning costume designer Janie Bryant to come up with ’60s-inspired clothes and accessories that are modern for everyday use.

And what is the ’60s woman without her scarf? Part of the collection features a silk neck scarf in grey or cafe au lait leopard print.
