10 Times Ariana Copped Xtina's Style

by Amy Sciarretto

Ariana Grande's half-up, half-down hair plus her clingy dresses, super high heels, and oozing flirtiness: All of those elements make up Ariana Grande's style. The same could arguably be said for her fellow pop diva Christina Aguilera, who is several years older and in possession of the same head-turning, room-filling voice as Grande. So, has Ariana Grande gotten her entire style aesthetic by following Xtina's fashion playbook?

Granted, there aren't a ton of completely literal copies when it comes to Ari's outfits and looks, but she is certainly inspired, heavily so, by many of the outfits the current The Voice coach wore back in her heyday. Grande takes elements of Aguilera's style and her clothes and modernizes them for the right now. It's Aristina!

Both Grande and Aguilera favor skintight, sexy dresses with short hems. Both are fans of major heels over flats. The higher, the better, and with all sorts of outfits, too.

Let's peep 10 times that Ariana Grande has copied Christina Aguilera's style with her outfit, indirectly or not. You may not have noticed before, but once you scroll through these ensembles, you'll never be able to unsee.

Ari's dress may not have been high low, but it had a similar frilly and sparkly hemline. Same shoes, too!

Grande went with a dominatrix look in a black leather, gold embellished Moschino mini paired with over-the-knee boots. The silhouette of her dress was eerily familiar.
