Style Tip: Don't overpay for flats/shoes! I actually bought these flats in the Girl's Section at Target for far cheaper than what they would have been in Woman's because they were on clearance and there was a Cartwheel deal. Not only that, they look exactly the same as something you'd buy in Woman's. It's worth it just to check it out.
With Valentine's Day only a mere two weeks away, it's time to start preparing, especially if you're the type of person that tends to be just down right giddy and in love this time of year, here are some great ways to show it off!
There's never a time when I go into Kohl's and look at Lauren Conrad's Collection that I can't find something to buy. She has such feminine and chic items at reasonable prices. So many of my own clothing and jewelry items, especially jewelry, are from her collection. Here are a few of my favorites from her current collection.
How can you not love faux fur? It just gets me ready for winter and in such a warm and fuzzy mood, and of course, it saves the lives of innocent creatures from becoming your next clothing item. Faux fur looks just as good and feels almost exactly the same as real fur. Here's a faux fur vest I just got recently. I've worn it twice now and am always looking for more ways to wear it. Also, I know my pup is probably sure glad that it's faux fur and not the real deal;)

Wearing pink doesn't mean you're a girly girl or that you've stooped to some new level of low by wearing it. It's just a color. If you like wearing pink, go right ahead and wear it. Pink is a nice color that makes any look, soft and feminine. In addition, pink comes in all different shades. If you want to wear pink, but don't want to go bright and bold right away, start off with a very pale shade of it. Now a days, pink is everyone. Everybody wears pink to show their support for breast cancer awareness. I know I do to show my support. Overall, just do what you feel comfortable with and don't let anybody let you think otherwise. Think Pink!

This is my absolute FAVORITE time of year. I mostly look forward to Christmas Eve at my Grandma's. It's been a tradition for me ever since I was born, and it's only grown with all the additions that have been made to our family. Every Christmas Eve, we all go to church and then to my Grandma's house for food, drinks, conversation, lots of laughter, and of course, presents. One of the big things leading up to this night is deciding, what to wear, and another part of the tradition is that we always dress up. I have found some great options, if you're like my family and dress up at anytime around the holidays. They are great for whatever you might be looking for with different styles for different shapes and sizes. I don't want to give out quite yet what I'm planning on wearing this year, but......
It's time to find the perfect holiday attire for you!
I don't know what it was about Christina Aguilera's outfit last night on The Voice, but it definitely caught my eye and I loved it! My husband even said something about liking it too.
I know that it's an out-of-the-box, adventurous outfit, but it's worth a shot to try it out. It's something different and I'm here to help you get it for cheap versus the ridiculous cost that it was probably for Christina.
Unlike Christina Aguilera, the majority of us can't wear hats to work. So, this will have to be more of a night/weekend outfit, or just wear it without the hat and put it on after work. However, the hat definitely makes the look complete.

I don't necessarily have these items or time to run out and get them, so I've searched and found them at reasonable costs and for purchase online. I put pictures in the gallery below with links to go to the items.
- Red Suspenders - Express ($20.93)
- Striped Button Up Shirt - I found shirts at Target and H&M (Places and prices are below with pictures), but I'm sure you could find something at other stores too.
- Floppy Wool Felt Fedora - Nordstrom's ($38; comes in 4 different colors)
Since we can't see the bottom, I would pair it with.....
- Skinny Jeans or Boyfriend Jeans - I always buy my skinny jeans from Target about $25 on average and Gap has great boyfriend jeans for $69.95.
- Oxfords - Not Rated Jute Oxford Pump from DSW($42.95; I have these and they are to die for!!!), but DSW has a wide variety if you don't like these. Otherwise, you could wear a pair of beige or nude heels.
I Want to Hear From You!
Leave a comment about a celebrity look you'd like to get and if there's a specific outfit you would really like to have that they've worn (be specific about the event or when they were wearing it).
I know it can get a little scary when it comes to talking about adding patterns to your wardrobe, especially if you're used to wearing just plain, straight colors, but it's time to make a change. Adding patterns can really add pizzazz and a new element to your look, and if you think you don't look good or can't pull off patterns, that's entirely not true! It's nice trying/doing something different than the run of the mill color. A great way to start easing yourself into patterns is by wearing a scarf with pattern or a shirt with stripes. These are great ways to step outside your comfort zone with a little edge. The next step is to start throwing in some polka dots or simple floral patterns, just something that's a bit more adventurous than stripes or a scarf. After that, you'll be ready to really venture out with your wardrobe and BE BOLD. It's your time to get out there and make a statement. Try doing a totally different patterned shirt, skirt, or dare I say it.... Pants! Be proud and confident because you can and you should!
Pictured above is a shirt I recently got at Target. On clearance it was only $18, and so far today, I have gotten quite a few compliments on it. I just paired it with my Khaki Pencil Skirt from H&M, black tights(that can be found anywhere for cheap), and some red wedge heels I bought years ago from Wet Seal.
The eye is drawn to bright and bold things, and being noticed isn't such a bad thing, especially if you're looking to catch the eye of that special someone. Now get out there and BE BOLD!
