Three Looks for Less

Aug 15, 2017

Who doesn’t love to find a copycat style that costs less than its designer cousin?  Finding the must have look for less is a fashion thrill.

Asymmetric Skirt.  Bold red pieces are going to be huge this fall season.  These asymmetric skirts bring a modern vibe to an otherwise basic midi-skirt.  The J.W. Anderson Skirt ($405) with its sleek lines and Katherine Hepburn appeal is what dreams are made of.  However, this Topshop Asymmetric Skirt ($55) is a serviceable alternative.

I would wear such a statement-making skirt with a Victorian collar blouse (also the rage this fall).  I love this See by Chloe lace blouse.  Another option would be a simple tie-neck like this Banana Republic top.

Bow-Shoulder Sweater.  I adore this bow-shoulder Ermanno Scervino sweater ($880), but the price, whoa.  When I spotted it, I knew I needed to add a bow-shoulder sweater to my fall looks.  I saw this Banana Republic sweater ($88) with its relaxed fit and feminine style and knew it was the one.

Love bow sweaters?  This Ted Baker is also worth a look if you’re into prim and proper.

Top Handle Satchel. The Cuyana brand’s motto is “fewer, better.”  In other words, buy fewer things of better quality.  And this Top Handle Bag ($375) certainly makes that ethos look good.  On the more affordable side of the coin, this Mango Pocket Crossbody ($59) is a chic alternative.  The details on the hardware are really a nice addition.

This weekend, I got two hours to myself for the first time in months. Really to myself. My child was asleep. My dogs were asleep. Kyle was off playing cards with his friends. My house was clean, and there was nothing else to do but sit in my bed and scroll Instagram. It was glorious. […]

The Counter: The Post-Product Era

When I was in my 20s, I bought every trendy nail polish, eye color, and lip gloss.  Sure, I could only wear them on the weekends, but why not wear emerald green liner?  In my 30s, I became enamored with skincare and took every “must-have” product for a spin.  But in my 40s, my skin […]
