In September 2018, Blake Lively graced the front row of the Christian Dior Spring 2019 show during Paris Fashion Week in France.

Since Blake has moved away from her signature power suits, we’re thrilled to see her embracing a fresh, feminine style again.

Blake Lively’s Fresh Take on Feminine Style at Dior

The mum-of-two opted for a delicate Christian Dior Fall 2018 floral-embroidered tiered tulle dress, then finished with the glitzy Christian Louboutin ‘Spikoo’ pumps previously spotted on Ciara.

As much as we love seeing Blake’s signature feminine style again, we also see that she’s unfortunately stuck in her old, over-accessorizing ways.

The “A Simple Favor” actress wore not one but two coats over her Dior dress. She then added yet another layer in the form of a Dior Pre-Fall 2018 metallic cage skirt, which we spot on top of the pile of extra clothes her bodyguard had to carry around for her.

Olivia Palermo Joins the Dior Show in Edgy Bohemian Style

If there’s one person who can go head-to-head with Blake Lively in an over-accessorizing competition, it’s Olivia Palermo. The then-32-year-old fashionista arrived at the same Christian Dior Spring 2019 fashion show wearing her version of a busy look.
