 | It’s the month of All Hallow’s Eve, where the dead roam the Earth and girls get to wear sexy, skimpy outfits to celebrate. For those of us who really love the darker side and this wonderful holiday, getting dressed in a scary, but sexy costume for only one night is not enough! While donning cat ears and a bodysuit may be jumping the gun a little, it’s a great time to dress with this spooky time in mind. Leather and lace are right on trend for this season and look equally amazing together or individually. Lace pieces can be both sexy and sweet with it’s sheer qualities and feminine ruffles and stitching, giving an ensemble the feel of romanticism and a ‘Victorian’ vibe. Leather, needless to say, it the edgiest of edgy materials and gives a tuff-gal appeal that’s perfect for the Halloween season and beyond. Together, these two materials create a look that is unique and texturized, combining rocker-chic with lady-like elegance into one unique look. We love the way these girls find the perfect balance for their outfits! Click on the slideshow to see some fave picks on how you can get this look! |
 | Once upon a time, we dreaded the days our mothers would make us wear weather appropriate clothing. Rain boots, rain coats and mittens, they were the worst! Chalk it up to maturity or perhaps, more realistically, the plethora of adorable weather-proof clothing that has been showing up in stores the past couple fall seasons, but nowadays, we are singing quite the different tune. The adorable rain boots from the likes of Hunter, Marc Jacobs and Tretorn practically have us doing rain dances for the chance to splash in some puddles and show off our rainy day duds. This season, however, the standout pair has to be from See by Chloe. Their tall rain boot breaks the mold with lace-up detailing, a mock side flap pocket and adorable star printed lining. These See by Chloe boots are so cute and stylish, we are considering donning them out and about even when the sun is shining.

 | A girl will always find a reason to shop! It’s guilt-free shopping that sometimes proves to be the challenge. How many tubes of lip gloss can one girl possibly possess or need?

 | We can’t help but love an piece of clothing or accessory that has more than one way to wear it, even as kids we were drawn to clothing that could be worn either side out, or had interchangeable shoe laces, or could change colors when exposed to heat. Today, we still love a product that can be worn different ways. Call it more bang for your buck or call it an easy way to mix things up in your closet, either way, it’s great. And if said product can change the entire style of an outfit? Even better. Take the Fred Flare Knit Bow Tie, this cute knit bow comes in blue, black and red, is attached to a matching knit band and finished with an elastic cord for stretch. Wear it as a bracelet or headband for ultra-girly styling, or as a bow tie with a button-up blouse for a stolen-from-the-boys look. The looks couldn’t be more opposite, and this great accessory makes either one a cinch. Speaking of a cinch? Why not adjust the elastic and get yourself a brand new knit bow belt? It would look just as cute around the crown of a hat, or as a special occasion collar for your favorite canine or feline friend. The possibilities really are endless, which is why we are smitten with this amazing Knit Bow Tie.

 | First of all … what exactly is OTK, you may ask. OTK is just a short acronym for the trendy boot style that’s here to stay. Over-the-Knee boots are flattering because they elongate the leg while keeping you warm and covered for these chilly days ahead. For many of us, we may already be aware of this hot boot trend, but thigh-high, stiletto versions may be just a little too impractical and dangerous to go running around in during the day. Plus, while these sexy shoes may be perfect for a night out with the girls, they’re too risque for everyday errands and activities. But we love this boot trend too much to not find a way to wear it to work, to school and anywhere else that strikes our fancy! Opt for a version that is flat or wedged for more standing support, and look for looser fits of leather and suede to give your look a casual, edgy vibe. Equally cute over leggings or paired with a pretty dress, you’ll find yourself loving your OTKs everyday! Click the slideshow to see some of our favorite everyday OTK picks! |
