That's So Chic

The title speaks volumes for my love for Fall. Perfect weather means perfect causal layering. It allows you to have one foot into summer and one foot into colder temps. The jackets, the sweaters, the shoes...I am rubbing my hands in anticipation *birdman hand rub*

These Jeffery Campbell wedges are utterly adorable, and yes, not actually luxe, but at over $100, not the most budget friendly wedge. However, I am a sucker for a unique detail and the cutout design on this wedge is fabulous. As soon as I saw these Sharkbite wedges on the Charlotte Russe website, I immediately recognized the similarity. With a price of about half of the Audrey's makes the Charlotte Russe wedge a little more affordable. Which do you prefer? The Jeffery Campbell Audrey or the Sharkbite Charlotte Russe wedge?

How urber chic is this remix that Chasity of The Curvy's Girls Guide to Style created. This is super smart and a wonderful display of celebrity style on a realistic budget. I loved this look soo much that I have been inspired to recreate my own.






The folks at EatSleepDenim have given us another great showcase of how to wear denim: black and denim parings. I am utterly in love with the leather peplum top with the cuffed boyfriend jeans. The mix of black with denim creates a chic and polished look.





A pair and a spare continues to amaze with beautiful DIY projects. This sequin blazer looks so easy to do and is a great transitional piece from summer to fall. Another DIY project and I am soo up for the challenge. Are you?







Andrea Fenise is spot on with this celeb inspired look for less. She took a men's wear inspired look worn by a celeb and styled it so that the everyday woman can wear. This look oozes weekend chic and is another great seasonal transition look.







While Channing of channinginthecity is away, she has collaborated with  blogging friends to create a series of fabulous guest posts. The latest contributor is Sereeda from eclechick.com. She offers up a super cute tutorial on how to create a cotton candy dot mani complete with tips on polish secrets and step-by-step pictures to assist us in creating this beauty.
