In Love

I'm going to admit, I am sad whenever I buy jewelry from Forever 21. They are very inexpensive but most turn out to smell slightly like lead after a few uses. However to the exception are these beautiful earrings I have worn over a dozen times. Keep your fingers crossed for me because they add just enough to any outfit I wear.

Wet Seal

This weekend at Wet Seal everything is buy one get one half off! I love to hate these kinds of sales, you always go in with the though of spending a certain amount, then they suck you in. So my advice...try things on and put them on hold for an hour or so. It will give you time to really think if you need everything you tried on. Here is a few of my favorite's right now.

Pick of the Day

The Eve top by Chadwicks has a great empire seam with ruffles and a cap sleeve. A beautiful fabric that comes in three colors can be worn for evening, day and work. A real triple threat in my opinion. Its a good deal at $29.99 but its a STEAL for my readers; enter CH40 at checkout and that shirt instantly becomes $17.99, how sweet is that?!!

The Eve Top

ZZZZZippers

No longer just for the emo kids, the zipper trend is in full swing this season. Whether you wear it preppy, tough or girly the trend will work for your lifestyle. Personally I think its a great trend, you zip up and go. I was reading a magazine this morning and they have a great blue dress that zipped through the middle from top to bottom, I died it was fabulous. When I looked at the shopping credits my jaw dropped, I really shouldn't be surprised as much as they try to make the fashion "affordable" it was a $475 dollar dress. That is my car and insurance payment. So this morning I woke up on a mission to bring you the fabulous 5 under 35 from Forever 21, a recessionista, fashionista and smart girls haven. Let me know what you think!

A great ruffle front zip top can be worn with your favorite skirt or jeans. Pair it with biker boots to feel tough or sweet ruffle heels to feel like a dainty doll.

This zip tulip dress is made by 12 by 12, another brand of Forever 21 but is easily found on their web-site. Pair it with gladiator sandals and a cardigan to have that laid back cool look.

This zipper pocket is perfect for just a little dose of this trend. A fun bright jacket and jeans would make and ideal home for this cute top.

Pick of the Day

My fall fashion must have pick of the day is a classic pea coat. The pea coat began being a staple in women's wardrobes in the 1900's. Most women's pea coats have buttons on the right side, while men's coats will be on the left. I however believe the most flattering cut is with buttons on both sides with the sides tapered in to hug our curves!

Pea Coats are classic and will not be going anywhere they are durable, warm and very fashionable. This is my pick for this season, it is made by Forever 21 and comes in four different colors.

Pretty Bows and Chantilly Lace

This season's hottest or should I say most delicate trend can easily turn into the nine year old version of yourself. To avoid being "as cute as a button" where you Aunt wants to pinch your cheeks because she is being nostalgic, tread lightly. Keep one piece your focal point and stay neutral in other aspect. I've found some great items that won't break your bank and can be worn casual, dressy or to work.
