Splurge vs STEAL

While I love investing in luxury pieces when I can, sometimes it’s not always practical from a budget standpoint - especially when it comes to trendy pieces (like gold heels or sneakers with stars on them). In this post I’ve rounded up a few trendy pieces (and a few classics) and found dupes that are much less expensive, yet still of great quality. Let me know in the comments below if you’ve found any fantastic dupes lately, I’d love to see your steals!- Faith

Fall Style and Trends-The IT List

Every year as the September Issues hit the stands, I realize it’s a little bit like Christmas. I can’t wait to get each issue and comb through the pages. The ads are extra beautiful, the issues super thick with content, and overall filled with the excitement of Fashion’s biggest season. There is something so wonderful about a fresh start and an update to your day to day look. (Personally, I find the crisp beginnings of Fall way more of a reason to start new than January 1.) This list compiles a few of my favorite trends for the upcoming season - whether you’re shopping designer or high-street these are everywhere. My favorites include velvet & lady-like block heels. Bring on the cooler temps and shopping sprees!- Faith

How To Style A Denim Skirt from Summer To Fall

When the denim mini skirt began to make a comeback I started having vivid flashbacks to the early 2000s aka Paris Hilton style denim - uber low cut, distressed, and all in all about six inches of fabric. While some of the styles have a distressed vibe this time around, thankfully they are a million times more chic. Paired with the right pieces the denim mini is perfect for a weekend trip or even casual Friday at the office. Above are two ways to wear the skirt - showing how to transition it from your summer Saturday look to your Fall casual Friday favorite.” - Faith

Travel Essentials

I travel a ton for business and pleasure and I am always on the lookout for travel items that will make my life easier. And over time I have found that there are certain items I seem to use over and over again. My favorite travel items as of late includes this scarf, my favorite concealer, and a super comfy pair of ankle boots. You can also check out some of my favorite travel items over at Capsule! Today we have Faith sharing some of her favorite travel essentials and this checklist is definitely going to help me with all the upcoming travel I have planned. Check out some of Faith's favorite travel items below. 

Whenever I travel I have a few essentials that I just can’t go without. Good face wipes, definitely a pair of headphones, comfy shoes, and the biggest/chicest purse (that can double as a carry on) that I can find. Above is my list of top seven items. Check them out and then let me know what you can’t travel without!

Wardrobe Essentials-Autumn |Winter

Today we have our fashion and beauty contributor Faith Pierce sharing her favorite capsule items for the fall/winter season. 

With the start of Fall I made a mission to buy pieces that 1. were good quality and 2. worked with multiple pieces in my wardrobe. I wanted to opt for items I really wanted (like a good pair of OTK boots and trainers that I would actually wear) and not just focus on spurge items because there was a 50% off promo going on.

With this capsule collection I feel like I’ve really gotten down to the core of what a good wardrobe needs. Lots of neutrals, flattering bottom pieces, easy to layer items, and coats and shoes that finish off a look. I left out accessories (like hats and all) because I feel that those items are the ones you can find inexpensively and add on later.

Now let me know, what items did you decide were a must-have for the basis of your cool-weather wardrobe?
