Now, we’re not suggesting you go sans clothing and just throw on a scarf! But you can literally put on a simple white tee and your go-to pair of jeans, slip on a pair of comfy flats, then throw on a light and colorful scarf, and you've got yourself a look that's effortlessly cool and pulled-together.

We've spotted this no-brainer of a trend on the hottest fashion mavens of Tinseltown season after season, and it's no

Whether it's at the airport or going out for a java fix, Hollywood's hottest fashionistas like Ashley Olsen, Nicole Richie, Lauren Conrad and Rachel Bilson all know one thing; scarves are quite possibly the easiest way to throw new life into casual ensembles.

The rising temperatures call for lightweight and airy scarves, making a great transition from your winter to spring wardrobe. Try a lovely and flowy lavender scarf by Missoni with a simple tank top or a lightweight sweater for an instant pop of color, or for an edgy take on feminine, try this surreal Alexander McQueen silk scarf. These soft color palettes look particularly pretty when worn against a grey or black top for contrast.

If your style is more laid-back bohemian, opt for a bright pop of color in an overdyed Indian-style print, like this scarf by Lucky Brand. The exotic print lends such a worldly feel and the lightweight texture complements your warm-weather wardrobe impeccably.

So, next time you're frantically searching your closet for something to wear, just throw on some basics and accessorize with a colorful scarf to get that uncontrived look that says, "I always look this good even on my off days".

BILSON'S EDIE ROSE

It would seem that Jumper is not the only thing Rachel Bilson is jumping into these days. She can now add celebrity clothing designer and spokesmodel to her resume. It has been well over a year since the end of her series, the O.C., but this stylish celeb’s clothing creed and projects continue to grow and be as varied as her clothing choices.

She is known for mixing things up in her wardrobe choices, so rightly so that her line, Edie Rose, in collaboration with DKNY, reflects this part of her persona. The vintage-inspired 15-piece collection is comprised of a sporty mix of button-down tops, jackets, tees, sweaters, dresses and two styles of jeans — a straight leg pair and a skinny leg pair, both styles that Ms. Bilson has often been photographed in. The line, made up of a mostly black and white palette with touches of bold color, is a different direction for DKNY, which usually has a more grunge, relaxed, urban feel.

However Ms. Bilson's creative role does not stop at helping to design the line, oh no. She mixed her youthful and authentic way of putting together outfits to help style the clothes for the shoot along with stylist Tabitha Simmons and will serve as the brand's spokesmodel. The collection will be in stores in time for back-to-school and will be sold at Macy's, Dillard's and Bon Ton in the junior's department.

Well, I guess if you wear clothes well, actually have an eye for clothes and putting them together, can get a major brand to invest in a label with you, that isn’t a bad way to pass the time in between movie projects, no?
