Complete Outfit: Winter Whites

by Sarah 4. February 2010 07:43

When the weather gets chilly, most of us have a tendency to gravitate towards darker, warmer colors - abandoning our white pieces completely. However, with all the celebrities taking to sporting their winter whites on the red carpet, it only seems fair that we do the same. Most of us might not have red carpets to walk, but that doesn't mean we can't put together some fabulosity using only light pieces. We hunted down the following outfit, comprised only of pieces from Forever21 (all of which are currently available on the F21 website for $30 and under), which we think is a perfect winter white getup (with some bits of pastels thrown in for good measure).

Three Perfect Winter Coats for Under $100

by Sarah 4. February 2010 07:25

If you haven't checked out ASOS.com, might we suggest that you take a gander over there, stat? We've been hunting for a winter swing coat, and ASOS has three perfect ones that fit our under $100 budget requirement. We're obsessed with the oversized collar of this royal blue one (okay, we know it's $30 above budget, but come on! That color is amazing!) - what a statement piece! We're picturing it with black leather leggings, boots and a beanie. The grey coat is the perfect go-to piece - no matter what you're wearing, this baby will match. Not to mention, the oversized sleeves are perfection. They add the hint of detail that bring this coat from boring to fabulous. Last but certainly not least, the red swing coat with the collar detailing! Are we the only ones with a serious weakness for collar detailing? The raspberry color and ruffle make this coat feminine - but not so girly that it feels young.

The Look for Less: Ann Demeulemeester Lace Up Heels

by Sarah 3. February 2010 05:51

It's only taken Forever21 a year and a half to knock off these amazing Spring 2009 Ann Demeulemeester lace ups - but boy are we glad they've done so! The original Anns retail for over $800, but their relaxed military style look is undeniably cool. Jeffrey Campbell, the king of designer knockoffs, did a version of these last year - but his were still expensive. They retailed for $198 at Free People. Now, Forever21 has made a pair that retails for only $27.80. While they'll never compare to the real thing, they're a great way to get the look for a fraction of the price. Get yours here.

Stylish Steals: Cool Clutches

by Sarah 2. February 2010 04:43

We admit - we're fans of oversized totes come daytime. We can't help but carry everything but the kitchen sink around with us - you never know what you'll need! However, when the sun sets and we head out on the town, we favor small clutches that fit the essentials and the essentials only. Think keys, lipstick, phone, ID and cash - and maybe a mini hand sanitizer if size permits. Clutches are a great way to add a pop of color to any ensemble; you can jazz up any simple outfit, whether it's a tee shirt and jeans or a black minidress. Below, we've selected some of our favorite colorful clutches. All are under $30, many are under $20, and some are under $10. Wear them in good health, ladies, and get shopping!

2010 Grammy Fashion (My Faves and Not So Faves)

by brooks 1. February 2010 15:59

Go to fullsize imageGo to fullsize imageI'm a big P!nk fan, so naturally, I thought she looked gorgeous at the 2010 Grammy Awards.  Her performance was breathtaking, as was her red carpet look.  You never know what you're going to get with her.  She can be beautiful and elegant, but yet hard-core and edgy.  Its the best of both worlds!

What can you say Go to fullsize imageabout Lady GaGa?  I'm a fan of her music, but not so much of her odd Go to fullsize imageclothing choices.  She was one of my not so faves as far as her fashion choices go.  Yet, people still go "gaga" for her, so I guess she's doing something right. 

 Then there's Taylor Swift.  Yes, Taylor Swift.  I can't help but like her!  Her dress was beautiful and age appropriate. Her normally long curly locks were elegantly pulled back finishing off the beautiful look.  Apparently, I'm not the only one who likes her.  She scored quite a few Grammys!Go to fullsize imageGo to fullsize image  I'd definitely say she was another one of my faves of the night.

Other of my not so faves included Kesha (who only presented), Katy Perry, and Ciara.  Other of my faves were Carrie Underwood, Adam Lambert (not a girl, but I LOVE him, so he had to be included), and Fergie.  I'm no fashion expert, but I enjoy expressing my opinion.  Agree or disagreee, there they are!

Trend Alert: Making a Case for Lace

by Sarah 1. February 2010 07:28

There's something to be said about the romantic nature of lace pieces. Formerly reserved for Victorian costumes and bedroom attire, lace is making a big comeback. Whether you're looking to add vintage flair to a modern outfit, or spicing up your basics, lace is the way to go. It's undeniably flirty and feminine, and adds a hint of allure to any outfit. Lace tights have been all the rage this winter, but we're loving lace tops and skirts even more. Check out some of our favorites below. 

 

Forever21 Lace Overly Cardigan, $21.80 

Forever21 Lace Front Sweatshirt, $22.80 

Forever21 Lace Motif Tee, $12.80 

Forever21 Antique Lace Top, $32.80

Topshop Lace Crop Top, $20.00

Forever21 Lace Liberated Woven Top, $19.80 

 Tilly's Lace Crop Women's Top, $17.99
