It’s Olivia Wilde for you today. She was spotted looking extremely casual while out for lunch in Los Angeles last Saturday. The ‘Cowboys and Aliens’ actress had on a long printed tee over a horizontal striped dress and capped off the look with sunnies, a fedora, sneakers, and a fringe bag. Unfortunately, her shirt was too long and the stripes on her dress made Olivia look short and short-legged.

So what do you think, ladies?

Long shirt + horizontal stripes equals bad combination, yes? She should have at least worn a shorter top. In addition, a diagonal striped skirt would have been less unflattering. That said, we actually love the laid back style. It’s a good look to copy, as long as you pick the right pieces to wear. You can emulate it with a cropped tee instead of a long one. Also, try going for a striped skirt with thinner, less bold stripes, or even better diagonal stripes.
