It's All About Accessories Baby!

Because of the economy today, it is very difficult and almost impossible to rationalize spending alot of money on clothing. Many of us are obsessed with looking like fashionistas...I know that I am, so I always try to keep my ear to the pavement regarding the latest trends and classic fashion innovations. I always shop for bargins and I try to locate stores that cater to my inexpensive, fashionable needs. Accessories are a high equality and inexpensive way to minimize your clothing cost, by utilizing what is already in your wardrobe , and maximizing your style portfolio which keeps you looking like you just stepped off the runway. If you invest in these key staples this Fall, you will save a plethora of money while keeping your style Integrity undamaged! Here are some of my accessories selections for this Fall. If you invest in these staples, you will be a fashionista before you know it!

1. Belts: I don't think that belts will ever go out of style. This is an affordable staple that you will get alot of mileage out of. You can wear a belt over a sweater, your coat, or even just over a long shirt. This is an affordable fashion accessory that keeps on giving!

2. Jewelery: Jewerly is also another staple that will be a long lasting trend. The style of the jewelry is the only thing that will evolve. This season vintage jewerly is in style...1920's and 30's. This jewerly dresses up any outfit and makes something ordinary look extraordinary.

3. Scarfs: Scarfs have been in style for a while because they are not expensive and enhances any ensemble. Plaids are the need trend so if you want to be a little trendy, dont spend alot of money because you won't be able to wear it next season so invest in a $16plaid scarf!

4. Purses: Purses can get very expensive but I look at purses as an investment. However, there are affordable alternative to the expensive designer purses. Discount stores such as Filene's Basement and Lohnmans offers at least 50% off of designer prices and there is always New York City!!! Canal Street offers, legal, designer look alikes from street vendors. So have some fun shopping for the uncoming season and don't be afraid to take some chances.
