Step away from your LBD for a bit. Don’t get me wrong, I am a HUGE fan of Little Black Dresses but it’s ok to go for other colors like magenta sometimes. Especially if it is like this tiered strapless dress from Forever21. Can you believe it’s under $25?

Opaque jewel earrings, $3.80
Black jeweled cuff, $6.80
Black jewel flap reptile clutch, $16.80

Fergie’s Traveling Look For Less

Filed under Uncategorized
Can you believe I’ve been working on creating Fergie’s tweed blazer and jeans look for less for 2 days? My usual stops for fashionable bargains didn’t have a tweed blazer or black flats that look like Fergie’s. I thought it was going to be a breeze to copy Fergie’s traveling look but it wasn’t so. All is well that ends well though because I finally found a tweed coat that could pass up as Fergie’s tweed blazer.
I hope you like my own version of Fergie’s tweed & skinny jeans look for less.

I’m copying Lo Bosworth’s White Cardigan Look For Less because I think she was very brave for wearing that black mini-skirt in this cold weather. We know that it doesn’t get cold that much in California at this time of year, compare to New York, but cold enough that Lo Bosworth wore a long white cardigan.
I also give her props for showing off her nice legs even though it’s the Fall/winter season. That my friends is called, bravery .
Here’s how I created my Lo Bosworth’s White Cardigan Look For Less.
Under $50 Look : Maxi Dress & Flats
I’m really obsessed with Maxi Dresses this season. I believe it’s very flattering to my body type. The flowy skirt hides my huge children-baring hips..LOL. Plus it’s so easy to make it work. You don’t need much really. A pair of nice flats and accessories are optional.
Floral Maxi Dress, $29.80
T-Strap Studded Flats, $14.99

ABS by Allen Schwartz Charmeuse Rosette Dress Look-A-Like For Less
*Image Via 15DollarStore.
Here’s a $15 version of the ABS by Allen Schwartz Charmeuse Pleated-Rosette Dress. The real one is now on sale for $72.50 at Dillard’s but I understand that even that is still a little expensive. But guess what, I found a look-a-like that is sure to fit our budget. For $15 we can have this pleated charmeuse dress detailed with rosettes on the neck. It doesn’t look exactly like the ABS dress but pretty close. And the best part? it comes in different sizes(1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11).
Jessica, I think it’s ok to get size …read more

First I thought Carrie Ann Inaba was wearing a bat wing sleeves top, but then it could also pass up as kimono sleeves so hey, however you want to call ‘em, they all look the same to me, heh. The most important thing is, where to get similar bat wing/kimono sleeves top for less?
