Affordable Looks for the Everyday Fashionista

Who said maxi skirts are for Spring and Summer seasons only?  I fell in love with this maxi for its unique color, the volume and the pockets. Such a subtle yet unique green color that can we be worn during Fall/Winter or Spring/Summer. You can pair it with a plain top such as this NY&Company top and add lots of jewels like my Ihanti necklace or go with a printed top. Such a versatile piece that is sure to grab attention. How will you wear your maxi skirt this season?

With the gorgeous Fall weather almost gone and the Winter's cold front approaching, I would love to keep wearing shorts and skirts out but sometimes it is just too cold! This week's affordable look features a ponte pant from the one and only Jennifer Lopez. Her line at Kohl's is absolutely gorgeous and quite affordable. Yes, they are black pants but the pleats do all the talking especially when combined with this colorful blazer. Don't forget your jewels to tie it all in and a sexy plain pump or a bootie to complete your look. Would do you think?

This week, I had a few days off for the first time in a long time. So what do I do? I go to the mall of course and decided to go into stores that I have not visited in years. One store was the Limited. I found tons of fashionable yet reasonably priced pieces like this week's main feature, the orange hi-low dress. How it automatically includes a belt gives you an instant chick look and all you have to do is add a jewel or two and a pump and you are on your way. Adding a single colorful piece to any outfit is your secret to turning heads and a guarantee to get noticed like this aqua gemstone earring. You can also dress down the look by adding a low heel pump or even wedge but why would you want to do that?

Did I mention that I love different kind of jewelry. I love all that chunk, asymmetry and colorblocking has to offer. This week's piece is perfect for this Fall/Winter season because of its colors yet adventurous enough for Spring/Summer. By combining off-white glass pearls and acrylic brown rectangular beads, this Victorina necklace came about. You can wear it to the office with a button down or a high collared top or dress. What do you think?

This week's feature is full of layers so you can wear it from day to night! Combining this amazing Fall weather on the East Coast and this powdery pink skirt makes me feel like Summer never left. You can pair it with a simple plain blouse (black, white, ivory, navy) for an instant chic look or you can try adding layers. Love how the flat really is the highlight of it all with a nude color and an ankle strap that can be combined with endless possibilities. What do you think?

As I stepped out to the mall today, everywhere I turned there was a maxi skirt. Every color, every material and all pleats. Pleats add such a sass to any skirt and all you need is a plain top and plenty of jewels to complete your look. In today's look, I decided to mix patterns and paired the maxi with a striped black and white blouse and a red gemstone necklace. Oh and don't forget about the pointy pump! What do you think?

Another Thursday is upon us and you know what that means, a new effortless ensemble to try at an affordable price. A huge trend this Fall/Winter are floral printed slacks. Combine any floral combo with a plain blouse or top for an effortless and classy look. Make sure to play up your jewels like this 3 layer chunky gold chain.

As NYFW comes to an end so does my LookBook marathon. Be sure to check back every Thursday as I post a new outfit combination featuring one of my pieces. Love to end this run with two of the hottest trends for this Fall/Winter 2013, military and denim. Both trends are huge and are anywhere from accessories to shoes, clothes and even purses. Check out this denim coat, that can also be worn as a super cute dress, which features large buttons and structured collar imitating the military trend without being so serious. Pair with some chunky heels to dress up and one of my gemstone earrings for an elegant touch.

Don't forget your ankle strap flats or pumps!

I am really excited for today's look as day 5 of NYFW is here. I am a sucker for dresses but this is a very unique cut that can be very flattering whether you are short or tall. Pair this grey dress with these heels and a two tone necklace for an effortless look. You can even add a blazer or a sweater to top it off for those chilly nights.
