Blätter-bunt

Hi style star sisters. Im baccck! There’s soo much going on here and worldwide that it’s good to sometimes escape and put the focus elsewhere like your fall clothing transition. Those cool morning breezes and strong winds may be the remnants of the horrific hurricane patterns throughout the country. I think it’s fall telling us to retire our flip flops and cold shoulder tops. Well, put the the flip flops away for next season because there are some great looks to look forward to.

BOMBER JACKETS

This look is not new but it’s has been updated from the military green bomber jacket we’re familiar with. Now ladies we have bold feminine patterns and silky textures. Take a look below at some of the bomber trends.

This is a mid price sexy off the shoulder bomber jacket from BCBG I found on line for over $100. Love the bold pattern.

RED LOVE AFFAIR

Well, style stars, most designers have fallen back in love with the color red. I must admit you have to really commit fully to this color if you plan to wear a full on red assemble like shown below from Fendi. I love the fitted coat and sleek boots.

Another gorgeous I want it right now red explosion from Fendi. 3ffb53cea5f02405e818c500482e9f60--red-fashion-fashion-check

If you are bold enough for head to toe red looks as shown above . This is how you do it. Flawless!

For those of us who do not spend our days trotting down runways in complete red looks, I suggest adding a pop of red with a great bag or shoes.

These two bags are great for work days since they can fit many items.

I love these Steve Madden shoes that are a dead ringer for the pricey Altuzarra shoe. The red stretchy boot from Madden is a great look for pants and dresses.  Looking good does not have to break your budget. Both looks can be found for less than $130.00.

FURS and FEATHERS

Ok I admit, I love the colored faux fur and sherlings many stores are carrying now. Also, feathers and shimmy dresses are in season. I  have a cute shimmy dress I bought 2 years ago for a Halloween party. I wanted to embody Tina Turner. It’s good to know I will be able to wear this again. What do you think? FB_IMG_1506438734503

Here are a few looks for the fall season that will help you spark you inner Tina and glam goddess.

These feathered looks were featured looks for fall.

Above featured ostrich skirt from Line & Dot found at Revolve for $70. This skirt will have you doing a shimmy all night long. This cute purse or bottie can add a flirty sexy vibe to any outfit. The purse is from International Concepts for $25.

So, my style star sisters,  I hope this fall you find your inner glam goddess. Make the looks your own by trying one of the hot looks featured. See you all on the concrete runway!

Your style sister,

So style stars, the warm days and balmy nights are upon us. Time to show those bright painted toes and sexy shoulders. I’m excited about some of this seasons trends. Sleek one strap sandals, bare shoulder dresses, wide-legged pants and fringes are everywhere. My inner Tina Turner is going to come out.

The one strap sandal is a great must have for the season. Pair them with a fitted body con dress or jeans for a chic look. I found a few sandals that are worth snatching up. Steven Weitzman has pair for as low as $398. But, I like the more affordable options by Carlos Santana and Steve Madden. Both designers have the same look for as low as $50.

Here’so another look from Stuart Weitzman and Steve Madden that are a very good match too.

My other new shoe addiction are the sexy fringe sandals. Yes, all you modern day Tina Turners can step and shimmy in style. I found a pricey designer version from Aquazzura for a little under  $700. Steve Madden has almost the exact shoe for less than $150. My affordable pick is a brand I was not familiar with Chase and Chloe.  It was less than  $40. Take a good look.

The block shoe is back. I find them a bit clumsy but I found some of the new styles are worth checking out. These two styles combine the single strap and fringe trend. Let’s take a look. Both I found on line for less than $150.

 Now, if you want to add a fringe hand bag, I saw a few great pieces that would bring out the bohemian goddess in all of us. My splurge item is from Farrah for $598. Gorgeous leather in a great camel color.

So, now let’s bring the attention to our shoulders. I love all the shoulder baring sexy dresses this season. There are all price ranges available so style stars will not have to break the bank.

 

The wide-legged pants or palazzo look is also a great look that can be casual or dressed up. Paired with an off the shoulder top for a cool sophisticated vibe is a good day time option.

Celebrity Victoria Beckham has a high end fashion line which sells tailored wide-legged pants. Below, Victoria gives us a pulled together sophisticated look you can wear for business.

My style stars have a lot to look forward to this season. Remember: bold, sexy, and flirty looks can be yours too without going broke.

Giuseppe Zanotti Leather Zipper Trimed Pumps $795
-Giuseppe Zanotti pump with a twist- it has a zipper $795

Hey Style Stars before you slip your tootsies into boots permanently for the season– I want to pump it up for pumps. I love this shoe!!! It is classy and a classic. But like all things fashion, the prices for a leather pump are all over the place.
Prada Capretto Leather ponted toe $650
The pump above is a Prada going for about $650.
Manolo Blanik BB Point-Toe Metallic Pump, Black Titanium $595
And in my opinion the pinnacle of the pumps – The very chic Manolo’s in Black titanium cost $595.
Vanessa in Aldo's $59
But Style Stars you know I found a pair for a fraction of the cost- the Aldo pump for $59 dollars. Love it!
And here is a twist on the plain pump- get fancy style stars– with these Jimmy Choo’s jewel pumps. It is ‘just’ $3,250!
Jimmy Choo Tia Pointy-Toe Jewel Pump $3250

And while we are on the subject of my favorite shoe style– The pump! Let’s hear it for Christian Louboutin. Yay!
Christian Louboutin Patent Rolando $795
I love a nude pump. Now these are the pumps made famous by Kate Middleton- The Duchess of Cambridge.
The Duchess Of Cambridge Visits Naomi House
She bought her kicks from L.K. Bennett for $300.
I have a pair– see. I purchased my Style and Co. nude pumps from Macy’s -on sale of course.
Vanessa's nude pump
The “nude” pump blends with your skin tone and elongates your leg. Super sexy. Well of course it did not blend with everyone’s skin tone– until now!

What is your shade? Leave it to Louboutin- who made news by announcing his new color collection where he will offer the nude pump in a variety of shades. Now brown girls can have that long-legged look too.
Louboutin So Kate -Brown:$645
So for about $625 dollars you can pick a pump in your favorite flavor. Yummy!!

Nina Ricci floral ankle booties

Bucco Capensis ankle booties ...

Bucco Capensis ankle booties …

Hello my Style Stars…I love fashion just like alot of women out there, but I refuse to go broke trying to follow some of the trends that are here today and gone tommorow. I fell in love with the floral ankle booties this season, but I didn’t love the various high prices. So, what’s a Style Star to do! Start searching for affordable and fashionable looks without ridiculous high prices.

My first find were the Jimmy Choo Bolt Painted Python Peep-Toe Bootie…On the Saks website, this retails for $1,895…Um, mortgage or ankle bootie. I know better Style Stars! Keep looking!…

Well, my favorite designer discount store had a blow out sale. Daffys was my favorite store to find great affordable unique items without the high cost. Weeks before I noticed the most stylish delicate floral printed booties in cream with a spiral high heel. The boots were Nina Ricci and I had no idea how much they retailed for until I went searching. The boots were $1250. At Daffys, they were a little over $300. Nah, still too high. I waited until the very last 2 weeks before Daffys closed. I know risky, but I just hoped no one else loved the boots as much as I did. Sure enough, the fashion gods were on my side. There was only one pair in the entire store and I was able to snag them for a little under $100. Yes! I had a great pair of designer boots, and I saved a bundle.

I was not done with my floral bootie search. Two pairs are better than one. And, these floral high heel ankle booties by Bucco Capensis were less than $30 ! Yes, that’s right!. I’m done now. On to the next fashion find.
