Lookbook

There is something about one shoulder dresses that makes my heart go pitter patter.  I don't know if it is because I am sick of their strapless counterparts that are just oh so very 2008, leaving little to the imagination.  Or maybe it is because the one shoulder just gives off that greek goddess in a toga vibe that I am definitely feeling these days.  Whatever it is, it works.  I just need to limit myself to maybe 2...ok max 3 and that's it, I promise.  In any case, there are a few cheap vs steep versions below for your viewing pleasure.  Enjoy! 1)Torn by Ronny Kobo   Shop Bop $264 2) Riller and Fount-  Shop Bop $163 3) Alice + Olivia Shop Bop $264 4) Forever 21 $30 5) Asos $43 6) Asos $43

1) Shrunken Leather Jacket- Jo ie at Piperlime $500 2) Long Dress- Rachel Pally at Sop Bop $251

They are hot, match with pretty much everything and because of the color, will make your legs look extra long.  What is not to love about nude platform pumps?  I guess maybe just the comfort factor... 1) DSW $70 2) Shop Bop $385 3) Coach $200 4) Endless $400

1) Cheaper Arden B $15 2) Cheap  Vero Moda at Asos $45 3) Steep J uicy Couture at Shop Bop $200

How refreshing- florals in the fall!   Lauren rocks the look with a belt (it toughens up the dress and brings down the girly-ness of it all).  I am not too much into all that is sugar and spice (I wear plain tanks and flat boots on a regular basis) so mixing a slightly studded belt with a nice dress makes it all ok.  Enjoy some inspiration below. :) 1) Forever 21 $20 2) Forever 21 $23 3) Rojas at Chickdowntown $91 4) Urban Outfitters $88 5) Jill Stuart at Shop Bop $214

I want a pair of over the knee boots, I am not going to lie.  I own a gazillion pairs of boots already, in various shapes and sizes but you know how it goes- you get one style, walk right out the door and realize you just want one more.  Ugh. Falling victim to consumerism is suuuuch a pain :P   I have tried to suppress my overwhelming desire for the over the knee style, but it just comes back to haunt me, mostly in the middle of the night (i'll wake up in a cold sweat) or as I daydream at work.  It is imperative that I quench this thirst and it will get done this weekend, oh yes it will.  I am currently knee deep (haha get it- knee deep cuz this is a post on over the knee boots and I just made it link to a commonly used expression, thus attempting to increase my level of pun cool-ness) in research mode and I do believe I have found some top contenders.  What's so cool about the over the knee style is that it amps up your sensuality all while keeping that urban cool vibe we are...

OK so the harem pants are growing on me, I am not gunna lie.  I asked a fashion forward friend of mine recently how she felt about them and she shook her head "Nah, it's not right, not right at all".  I was taken aback as I assumed that any individual deemed fashionista would at least consider it as an option.  I guess I was wrong.  In any case, Rihanna is working the look here with her usual eclectic mix of pizazz and grace.  Check out 2 versions below: one for an exorbitant amount and one for super cheap.  Enjoy!

Hello! I just was looking through your basics of all basics post back in May and was hoping that you could do another for the fall season? Being a California girl, I’ve been living in flip flops and shorts all summer long, but now autumn is coming and, being newly married (and approaching 30!), I want/need some new basic pieces to start off the season as a new stylish wife and woman. I want to feel and look put together. Can you please help? Thanks!!! –Ashley Hey Ashley Congrats on the wedding! Yeah I kinda understand where you are coming from and how easy it is to be living in shorts and flip flops... I am all about that easy casual style. With regards to the basics of all basics, if you have the pieces I mentioned in the previous post, then that’s a great start. Now what you want to do is add to this with some key pieces that are modern, up to date but not too trendy.
