The theme of this week: No muss, no fuss. We’re all about looking cool without breaking a sweat, which is why these three looks were so appealing for a sticky summer weekend.

Saturday night: Eagle-eyed readers may notice that this is a three-peat for Jamie Chung in “What to Wear This Weekend,” but she’s definitely earned the distinction. Her latest awesome ensemble, worn to a Montblanc party in L.A., is noteworthy because it’s so super-simple but makes a major impact. The peach-and-pink Lovers + Friends “Dandy Dress” is both breezy and sexy at the same time and looks fab with some cute cap-toe pumps and layered necklaces. Toss on something similarly bright and effortless (this French Connection dress has a little more waist definition for curvier girls) and let the color do all the work for you.

Sunday Brunch: Repeat after us: Navy and yellow is the perfect summer color combo. Then take a look at how adorably effortless Reese Witherspoon‘s version of the look is. Another frequent flier in our “What to Wear” column, Witherspoon just gets low-key dressing right. Statement shorts like her blue paisley pair go best with a super-simple top (à la her navy tank) and the sunny accents on her shoes and bag take this from “thrown together” to “brunch ready.” Grab your own pair of chic silky shorts and these celeb-loved yellow Dolce Vita sandals to finish the outfit.

Monday morning: Shades of sky blue and periwinkle are instant mood-uppers on a gloomy Monday morning. Pippa Middleton‘s Sandro jacket is on sale (though her crazy-cute Sandro “Rapprochement” dress sold out — thanks a lot, Pippa!) but a similarly structured sheath and chic bouclé jacket (love those neon accents) will give you a similar look for less. Pretty nude accessories, like her Ash wedges, complete the look in no time.
