Au Naturale - Nude Lipsticks

I can not pass by a nude lipstick! You can wear them everyday for a natural look or get glammed up Bridget Bardot style with nude lip and smoky eye. Lipsticks can get pricy so unless you sample at a Sephora or department store make-up counter, I recommend keeping it under $12. The following are some of my favs! Clockwise:  E.L.F Natural Nymph $5.00, Sephora Rouge Shine Lipstick In Warm Nude $12, NYX Matte Lipstick In Nude $6, & Revlon Nude Attitude $7.99. Have fun in the buff!!

Leopard Accessories....Yes Please!!!

Leopard is everywhere this season which means you can find some really good deals. I found this leopard scarf at Lucky Outlet originally $50 for $16.50 easy on the wallet and good quality...score!! Above are some fun & inexpensive leopard finds. Top to bottom: Indy C Leo Square Cuff ($17.96), Dex Leopard Peep Toe Pumps ($47.99), Tory Burch Leopard iPhone Case ($48), Express Leopard Cut Out Clutch ($39.90)

Fall's Perfect Peplums

Peplums are popping up literally! The peplum top and dress have been seen on many a red carpet. The primary reason is whether your slim like Charlize Theron or curvy like Kim Kardashian, the peplum is universally flattering. It was not hard to find some fabulous fall peplums under fifty bucks! From top left clockwise: River Island brown leopard ($33.91),  Wanelo Burgandy Pleated Peplum ($49), ASOS Peplum with detail in Green ($25.87), Tobi in your step peplum ($21)

Hot 2012 Fall Color: Burgundy

                                     

Burgundy is showing up everywhere this fall and I'm loving it! Burgundy is such a rich color that reminds me of fall leaves and pinot noir. If paired with your black wardrobe, the above pieces will pop nicely. The money you save from these wine colored steals will give you left over cash to buy a nice bottle of the real stuff! top left clockwise : Mossimo for Target Burgundy Fringe Bag ($19.99), Forever 21 Colored Bead Necklace ($6.80), Hightail Moto Pant ($79), Hurley Heart Hazard Drapey Rib Sweater ($36.95) MARC by Marc Jacobs Rubber Katie Turnlock Bracelet ($28)

The Leather Leg : Fall 2012 Trend

A big player this fall is black leather with the black leather legging on the top of that list. Leather pants can be worn by adding a structured blazer or comfy oversized sweater for a casual day look.  For a hot date night add a slouchy off the shoulder top. Leather pants are pricey so if you do not want to make the investment the faux leather versions are equally amazing and you can pick them up for 1/8 the price tag! Here are some fantastic versions under $100!! 

Yes Style faux paneled black legging ($27), Urban Outfitters Emily D Vegan Leather Leggings ($68), H & M faux black leather pant ($34.95)

I'm Loving Cat Eye Sunglasses!

  An original product of the late 1950's, cat eye sunglasses were worn by Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor and Audrey Hepburn. All good fashion trends eventually come back around and this is no exception. It's hard not to feel a little cool when wearing a pair of these puppies!  The modern versions are flattering to all face shapes. I found a few that were priced low so that you can try them out without a big cash commitment. Slap on some red lipstick wrap a scarf around your head and saunter around the house (oh come on you know you wanna do it!) or just wear them out with a cute jean jacket.

Victoria Beckham Looking Fab In A Fall Fedora

The straw fedora was a HUGE summer beach bag accessory and now with the summer wrapping up it seems the fedora is shedding it's straw exterior in exchange for a warmer wool one.  A chic fedora is a great way to dress up a jean and tee or make a quick save from a bad hair day! The following are under $50! From left to right: Barmah Crushable Red Fedora , Obey 'Cooper' Wool Felt Fedora & LOFT Colorblock Raisin.
