Get Suited Up Like Selena Gomez

Though a pair of boyfriend jeans and a loose tee are an awfully tempting option during the summer, it's incredibly chic to pull out your black tie best on occasion. This is a sartorial lesson the performer appears to innately understand based on an Instagram Selena Gomez posted in a suit earlier in August. The starlet walked the red carpet in a captivating combination of Miu Miu, Saint Laurent and Dior, three design houses which understand the anatomy of a suiting ensemble. Gomez chose a tailored tuxedo jacket, low-cut black tank, slim black trousers, and metallic pointy toe pumps. The look was completed with a slicked-back ponytail, minimalist accessories, and a sultry smokey eye. Whatever rehab stint she completed or post-Bieber distress Gomez has been suffering from this year, it seems as though the starlet has made a full recovery, and a very stylish one at that. Perhaps everyone should simply throw on a suit when they're going through a stressful patch, as the notion evidently works for Selena.

So if those shredded cutoffs and maxi dresses you've been rocking this summer are starting to lose their casual-chic luster, try out Gomez's modernized tuxedo. At the very least, you'll be the most elegant person in the room, no matter where you're headed this weekend.

1. FITTED TUXEDO JACKET

Start off your Selena-esque ensemble with a fitted tuxedo jacket. Victoria's Secret's Tuxedo Jacket features a wide, satin lapel and a slim, figure-flattering cut.
