Fashion For Less 01: Two Glam Day-Out Looks

Posted in Fashion, Fashion On Sale! | 0 comments

Here’s the first of what I hope to be a weekly posting topic. I love designer brands, but I have yet to meet a Russian billionaire who would buy me endless supplies of designer duds so like most women (IMO), I watch how much I spend on things like clothes, shoes, accessories, bags etc.

So I’m starting out this Fashion for Less series. I’ll be creating looks out of fashion finds that wouldn’t cost mega bucks. I’ll be picking out items I see online that are (1) PRETTY and STYLISH (2) SELLS FOR LESS THAN $50.

Aside from looks I mash up, expect also some random postings of finds that are worth a few bucks.

This look actually just started with me seeing that shoe..I managed to pick out items to create two different looks for a casual but glam girls day-out look.

Look #1

1 -Michael Antonio Moe Pump – $34.95 at DSW. Available in red, black, grey and purple. I think I wanna have all colors.

2 -Rock & Republic Jeans – $32 at Yoox.

3 -ASOS Cape One Shoulder Top – $43.10 at ASOS. This is just lovely!

4-ALDO Barranger Nude Clutch Bag – $31 at Zappos.

5 -Embossed Woven Pleather Vibe! in Bronze – $8.99 at GirlProps.

Look #2. Of course, this goes with the Michael Antonio Moe Pump.

6 -Maggie Denim Skirt – $30 at Yoox.

7 -Sisley Young Ruched Sweater – $28.90 at Nordstrom.

8 -Women’s Kara B Cosmo Purse – $26 at Bagsbuy.

9 – RocaWear R1027 – $44.80 at Zappos.

10 – Kendra Scott Bivona Earring – $47 at Zappos.

Handbag Pick of the Week 08: Treesje Horizon Mini – Bordeaux

Posted in Fashion, Handbag Picks | 0 comments

I had been watching a TV series this past few days and the female lead is always sporting around soft looking, and super comfy looking shoulder bags and I was thinking, Yeah! I want that! Lots of room for stuff I tote around and something that looks soft and really slouchy..

So I’ve hopped around and found this: Treesje Horizon Mini – Bordeaux from MuseTen. Priced at $575.

It’s made of soft leather and I love the crunching detailing on the side. Plus it sure looks a lot like the one that girl on TV was always lugging around! Here’s the product description from the site.

14″ wide, 12″ high, and 5″ deep
8″ double handle drop length with detachable messenger strap
Top zipper closure
Gunmetal hardware
1 interior side zipper pocket, 2 interior open side slip pockets
Soft, crinkled lambskin leather

On a side note, a friend told me a few days ago, if I love fashion so much why not try have a business from it? I haven’t really thought about it but at this point I don’t know if I can spare the time for that, because a business would require full time effort and when I do something I don’t like doing it half-heartedly. I also think it would cost a lot to start up and were currently saving to build a new house. But she did say I could always look for consignment deals, buy sell agreement to make the initial start-up cost a lot less. Ahhh, the things to ponder and decide on haha..

For now I’ll be content with sharing my finds and hope somebody as bag obsessive as me gets to appreciate it too..
