Put Some Clothes On

So many times you walk into your closet and see absolutely nothing. I mean, you see clothes but create excuses as to why you can't wear any of them leaving you with nothing. A problem among most of us doesn't have to get the best of us. And don't feel alone because many of us share this issue, hence the mass production of those "Nothin To Wear" t-shirts.

Well, Eureka! Solution found. I was reading looking at pictures in an old newspaper today and saw a world wide trend that’s so simple but high on the fashionista charts.

Whenever you’re in a crunch, take out your favorite blazer and pashmina scarf. Viola! You can pair this with jeans, slacks, cargos, and even a skirt if you’re feeling girly. You don’t even have to worry about a top since the blazer can close and the pashmina falls over. Keep it simple with a white tee. Try it yourself and watch the stress of picking clothes leave your mind and closet.
Don't forget to accessorize!

Chirp if you like Chic for Cheap

I hope you all have read my posting about turning your summer outfits into winter attire. I'm saving you a lot of money so you better thank me. But for those of you who can't hold out and constantly have the itch to buy new things, I have something for you...Nice fall trends for your closet at nice prices for your wallet.

So let's start with shoes. I think shoes really make an outfit. Well, shoes and accessories. You can put on a white tee and blue jeans five days in a row and just change up the shoes and accessories and people won't even notice. Well, you know what I mean. Back to the shoes.

I don't remember who started this riding boot craze but ever since it began, I hardly think about wearing any other shoes during the fall and winter months, even spring if I could get away with it. But of course my Steve Madden Reins riding boots are about ready for shoe heaven. I've got them repaired 3 times within a year. Yes, 3! And while I'm still going to wear them, I'm eyeing a new Chic for Cheap pair of riding boots. At Target they have these new boots by Mossimo for less than $50 and they're mostly genuine leather. Good deal.



Another trend that is arising this fall is the motorcycle jacket. Currently I'm having flashbacks of the motorcycle fund raiser I attended this past weekend. There were ass-less chaps there y'all. Anyway, the leather motorcycle jacket has always been a staple for the rough and tough persona but is becoming more soft for an everyday look that can be worn in a feminine fashion. At Old Navy you can find an authentic leather motor jacket for $199 or you can scroll down on their outwear for the $39 twill version. You know which one I prefer.
I may get pointed and laughed at for this next Chic for Cheap trend. I love scarves, especially $5 pashminas scarves. I've seen scarves for around $10 in Old Navy before and that's just Old Navy. So my motto is stick to the men on Broadway who sell scarves for $5. These $5 scarves really add to anything you're wearing.
Stay tuned for more Chic for Cheap deals.
