How can I get that put-together celebrity look?

Fox: I suggest sorting your closet. For example, you can hang a suit as separate component pieces so you can easily see how these pieces can pair with others in your wardrobe. Practice walking the Red Carpet while walking each item through your closet, and see which have chemistry together (a bit like leading men and women).
