The High-Neck Dress

Karlie Kloss’ dress selection for the Louis Vuitton Monogram Celebration was classy, chic, and sexy all at once — the high collar and long sleeves let her show of her toned legs without looking too scandalous.

The Embellished Mini

The dress that Gigi Hadid wore to the Pirelli Calendar launch in Milan might be my pick for the best outfit of 2014. She kept the look simple with glowing, rose gold-hued makeup and a teased ponytail.

The Slip Dress

Lily Aldridge worked the slip dress trend at the New York premiere of The Monuments Men. The key to the look? A longer hemline and youthful, girly makeup.

The Jumpsuit

Kendall Jenner’s jumpsuit would be a perfect outfit for any New Year’s Eve event — her sleek hair and red lip complete the modern look.

The Sheer Blouse

A sheer top over a bra of the same color paired with leather pants, à la Cara Delevingne, is a great way to turn up the sexiness at a more casual NYE event.

The Major Crop Top

Feeling confident? Jourdan Dunn took the crop top trend to another level at the VMAs this year with a super-short version of the trend. Try it with a chic velvet blazer over it if you want extra coverage, and swap the full-length bottom for a midi skirt to keep it a little more casual.

The Plunge Neck Shift Dress

The straight silhouette of the plunge neck shift dress that Behati Prinsloo wore to the premiere of husband Adam Levine’s movie Begin Again kept the dress from being over-the-top sexy, while the red hue gave it a little extra va-va-voom.

The Crop Top and Skirt Set

Miranda Kerr kept the cropped look classy with a wrap-style top and a matching high-waisted pencil skirt. The lace gave it a touch of traditionalism, but the midriff-baring set keeps the fabric modern.

The Winter White Mini

Who says you can’t wear white after labor day? The wintry hue of Chanel Iman’s ribbed minidress at a Super Bowl XLVIII party keeps the look fresh and season-appropriate. Hey, wearing white’s a great way to start 2015 with a clean slate.
