Lust vs. Must – Kitty Flats

November 9, 2013

2 Comments

Lust: Charlotte Olympia
Must: Nordstrom Rack

One of the ‘must have’ shoes of the season are Charlotte Olympia’s ‘Kitty Flats’. Now while Olympia’s retail for a whopping $825 (available at Nordstrom), I have found some affordable alternatives!

This week’s ‘Lust vs. Must‘ is all about leopard and kitty slippers!

The Leopard Smoking Slippers I’m wearing under ‘Must’, I found at Nordstrom Rack for $35, beat that Charlotte Olympia!

I also found some cheap yet still chic alternatives at Charlotte Russe for only $24.50

Forever 21 had these great ‘Cool Cat’ slippers also at a reasonable price, $22.80!

A Bit of Blue & D’Orsay

November 8, 2013

1 Comment

TGIF! I don’t know about you but I am thrilled its Friday and that means time for a 3 day weekend (since Monday is Veterans Day)!

Today’s outfit once again breaks fashion rules. In the spirit of wearing white after Labor Day, I chose to rock these white ‘Rockstar’ skinnies from Old Navy. I love the fit of these, not to mention the fact that they only cost me $6 on clearance!

A little piece of advice, always stock up on spring and summer clothes in the fall and winter season and vice versa. The sweater I’m wearing today I got at Old Navy two summers ago for $10…yes a total steal.

I pulled the look together with casual black D’Orsay flats from the Nine West outlet (see link below for identical ones from Chinese Laundry at Nordstrom).

To top it all off I rocked my new cobalt blue quilted leather bag I got on sale at Lord & Taylor! (Stay tuned for a lust vs. must post featuring the bag that inspired this purchase!)

Now I’m off to another day in the chilly big apple!

Happy Friday Fashion Lovers!

White For Fall

November 7, 2013

1 Comment

The old saying goes ‘You can’t wear white after Labor Day’, however being a breaker of most fashion rules, I decided that one of my fall ‘must haves’ is this chic white blazer from LC By Lauren Conrad.

I love how it breaks up the look by adding a brighter tone rather than just plain black on black. I brightened the look up even more with an orange chiffon top from Old Navy.

As always, you can never go wrong with a pair of classic black pants, especially ones that fit you well! I love these black work pants from Kohls!

I also decided to do something a little different this morning and curl my hair!

Happy Thursday Fashion Lovers!

Yellow Sweater Weather

November 6, 2013

This chilly NYC weather always calls for a comfy sweater, but why not snazz up your ensemble by rocking a bright colored sweater!

I stocked up on these great V-neck colored sweaters last year at Old Navy and they go with absolutely everything. Wear them with jeans on the weekends or a skirt to work like I am today and you’ll be sure to stay toasty warm while also looking cute.

I guess I was inspired by a ‘Bumblebee’ this morning because I’m wearing a black and white striped skirt with a layered yellow sweater, black boots and a black faux fur vest! I just love the yellow and black color combination!

I’m also in love with my black boots I’m wearing today. They are by ‘Me Too Shoes’ and in addition to looking cute, are super comfortable. Cute and comfort is always in style when it comes to fall and winter wear!

Happy Humpday Fashionistas!
