Dexie Wharton — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:06:03 +0000

I used to frown on skinny jeans but mostly because my hips are too big for me to look good in one. I do have cute outfit ideas which involves skinny jeans though. And I’m actually thinking of possibly getting 1 for myself. But of course I’ll make sure it really fits my body frame well. If you are the lucky ones who doesn’t have to worry about that and enjoy wearing skinny jeans, here are 3 pairs of G by GUESS Skinny Jeans that are currently on sale for under $20.

This one is called Roslyn Jeans. The back pockets are detailed with metallic rose embellishments. It’s available in sizes 29 and 31. It used to be $59.50 but is now on sale for $19.95.

If you are into colored skinny jeans then you might like this Brighton Skinny Jeans in pop of red color. It’s available in sizes 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, and 31. It’s also on sale for $19.95.

If colored jeans are not your forte but like that Brighton style, here’s one in medium wash. This one has zipper details on the ankles. It’s available in size 28 and is also on sale for $19.50.

Skinny Jeans look great with heels or flats. It also looks good tucked inside a pair of boots which is appropriate for the current season. Enjoy.

Jessica Biel’s Casual Fall Look For Less

Dexie Wharton — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 13:30:41 +0000

Earlier this month Jessica Biel looked lovely in her casual travel outfit which involved a nice boyfriend jacket over skinny jeans and flats. I created a look for less version of it because it was something I know all of us could wear ourselves too.

This time around, Jessica Biel is looking lovely in a casual Fall travel outfit when she landed in Canada to continue shooting the movie The A-Team. Of course, I created our own look for less version too.

Old Navy White Tee, $4.99

Old Navy The Flirt Skinny Jeans, $34.50

Old Navy Black Sunglasses, $9.50

Old Navy Gray Scarf, $5

Bamboo Tamara Knee-High Boots, $28.99

George Black Double-Breasted Coat, $38

It’s simple, casual yet chic at the same time. Think about it, you could actually wear the coat, scarf, boots and sunglasses with other pieces in your wardrobe too. A good way to stretch the budget which is always welcome.

2 Ways To Wear A Floral Tunic With Boots

Dexie Wharton — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 13:30:09 +0000

You know when you see a piece of clothing and instantly you get ideas of how to wear it or what to wear it with? That’s what happens to me (as it usually does) when I saw this Baby’s Breath Teal Tunic from Lulu’s. So I went to work and created 2 look for less that I hope you like as well.

Look For Less : Floral Tunic, Jeans & Boots

Baby’s Breath Teal Floral Tunic, $25.50

YMI Dark Vintage Wash Embroidered Skinny Jeans, $15

Forever21 Faux Leather Jacket, $29.80

Qupid Black Faux Suede Knee-High Boots, $29.99

Mixed Chains & Hearsts Necklace, $5.80

Braided Rhinestone & Chain Bracelet, $10.80

Spiral trim hoop earrings, $3.80

Zippered Carry-All Tote, $27.80

My idea is to wear the jeans tucked inside the flat knee-high boots which is why I chose skinny jeans. If you are not into that look, you could actually pair this tunic with a denim skirt, and the same knee high boots and accessories, like illustrated below.

Look For Less : Floral Tunic, Jeans & Boots

You could change the accessories if you want. This is just an idea of how to wear the floral tunic with boots for a lovely Fall Look.

Jessica Biel’s Travel Casual Look For Less

Dexie Wharton — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 12:55:08 +0000

Jessica Biel knows how to travel comfortably yet maintaining a laid-back and stylish style. Drawing inspiration from this look, here’s a Jessica Biel’s Travel Casual Look For Less. Hope you like it.

Jessica Biel's Travel Casual Look For Less

Converse Low-Rise skinny jeans, $34.99

Urban Outfitters Gray V-Neck Tee, $24.50

Buckle Flats, $18.99

Initial “J” Necklace, $11.99

Charlotte Russe Fleece Jacket, $34.99

Sunnies, $5.80

I like how celebs are utilizing the basic tees. In here, Jessica is just wearing a soild grey shirt, embellished by an initial pendant necklace, and a boyfriend jacket over it. Simple yet chic with the addition of skinny jeans and flats. Even Gwyneth Paltrow is wearing basic tee with a Stella McCartney jacket at the latter’s show in Paris Fashion Week. Both celebrity fashionistas have convinced me to buy a pack of basic tees.

By the way, I’m not completely sure but I think Jessica Biel’s “J” Necklace is from Ariel Gordon. You can get it at Max and Chloe for $105.

Eva Mendes’ Nautical Look For Less

Dexie Wharton — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 16:36:38 +0000

Evan Mendes is showing her holiday spirit by wearing her “candy cane” shirt for a cute nautical look. I referred to is as nautical but it sure does look like it could be a nice casual attire for Christmas.

It took me a while to find a striped shirt but here is an Eva Mendes “Nautical” look for less version.

Old Navy wide-leg jeans, $34.50

Delicious Red Peep-Toe Pumps, $6.99

Urban Outfitters oversized hobo bag, $48

Essential Ribbed Scoop-Neck Henley, $38

Sunglasses, $5.80

I spent literally hours looking for a white and red striped shirt that looks like Eva’s but this is as close as I can find. It’s not that far off, not. Well, ss long as you get the idea. If you happen top know find one which looks like what Eva is wearing then by all means take that instead. The striped shirt featured her is definitely cute too, especially with the red peep-toe pumps.

Looks For Less : Plaid & Skinny Jeans

Dexie Wharton — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 14:37:32 +0000

The inspiration for this plaid and skinny jeans look came from my daughter. She just looked so cute in her plaid top with black leggings and flats outfit the other day. It almost made me want to wear leggings too, hehe. But if you’re like me who tries to avoid the leggings trend like a plague, skinny jeans or straight-cut jeans would do. I don’t mind leggings on children but I have issues on some grown Women wearing it, ALL THE TIME.

Anyhoo, this is my look for less version of plaid top and skinny jeans outfit.

Look For Less : Plaid Top & Skinny Jeans

Forever21 Plaid Tab Pocket Shirt, $19.80

Old Navy Black Skinny Jeans, $34.50

Delicious Gafna T-Strap platform pumps, $21.99

Glam Chains necklace, $6.80

Polished bangle set, $4.80

Rhinestones strand earrings, $4.80

Riley Patent Tote, $26.80

I love those T-Strap platform pumps. It actually kind of reminds me of Yves Saint Laurent Tribute Pumps. Doesn’t it? Or maybe it’s just me. In any case, I hope you like this look for less plaid and skinny jeans ensemble. By the way, for the bag, I was thinking more of a CHANEL quilted shoulder bag but we’re going to a budget look so we just opted a tote from Forever21. However, if you have the Chanel shoulder bag, then go for it.

Rose McGowan Red Top & Jeans Look For Less

Dexie Wharton — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 21:06:45 +0000

Rose McGowan is an epitome of casual chic in this travel outfit involving a red bow-tie top, jeans, open-toe platform pumps and oversized sunnies. Any of us could easily don this chic outfit for a casual day. Jeans and heels combination is a really chic ensemble all of us should apply in our daily looks.

I had to create a Rose McGowan Red Top and Jeans Look For Less for all of us. She’s not the only one who can look good like this yah know?

Charlotte Russe V-Neck Tie Top, $13.99

Old Navy The Flirt Flared Jeans, $29.50

Old Navy Black Oversized Sunnies, $5

Diba red linen open-toe pumps, $31.05

I don’t exactly know what kind of shoes she’s wearing but from the picture I assumed it’s a pair of open-toe platform pumps. Since she is wearing a red top here I figured the shoes is red too with clear platforms. In any case, I think our version looks fabulous too. I hope you like it.

Shredded/Frayed Jeans For Back To School?

Dexie Wharton — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 14:10:17 +0000

Are we actually going to believe that shredded/frayed/distressed jeans are the IT jeans for our Back-To-School fashionistas? Seriously, that’s where fashion is going? Coz if it is, then we might have to knock some sense into people starting today.

I refuse to believe that our back-to-school fashionistas are going to grace their schools wearing shredded/frayed/distressed jeans. If there are any young readers out there, please don ‘t succumb to this trend. Coz that’s what this is, a trend.

Show up looking like you mean business instead. That you are serious in learning Calculus, Psychology, Chemistry, History, Literature, and all that good stuff. shredded/frayed/distressed jeans are not chic. Youthful? That’s debatable. It’s possible to look chic and be youthful at the same time.

Do you think Blair or Serena would wear those jeans to school? Of course they’ll wear something way more expensive than Forever21 but believe it or not, there are other clean, classic, and cute jeans out there from affordable merchants that would look better that these shredded ones. Old Navy and L.E.I are great examples. Forever21 has them too, just dig around. Or go to the classic Levi’s.

Trust me, you don’t want to look back 10 years from now and say to yourself, “I can’t believe I went to school wearing those jeans”.

Bargain Look: Gray Tunic, Jeans, Gladiators

Dexie Wharton — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 14:05:43 +0000

I found this gray tunic from Walmart for $3 which I thought is very simple and chic at the same time. The tunic is actually long enough to wear as a dress for a petite woman. I could wear it as a dress too but I’m afraid bending will be out of the question, heh. Here’s how I wore it instead.

Spring Look : Gray Tunic, Jeans & Gladiator Heels

Gray Tunic, $3
OLD Navy Jeans, $19.99
Gladiator Zipper Heels, $24.99
White circle cut out necklace, $3.99
silver hoop earrings, $3.99
silver bangles set, $3.99
Marc Jacobs White Stam Bag Replica, $52.69

At first glance you could say the tunic is a kind of juvenile but as I showed in my ensemble, you can make it look mature for an age appropriate ensemble. I liked it, do you?
