STYLE MOTIVATION: How To Rock Leather Shorts
-
I mean really...they are leather. What other perfect time of the year can you rock leather shorts other than fall and winter? If I see any of you wearing leather shorts in the summer I will walk right up to you and smack ya! Lol. Just kidding. But for real, leather shorts are perfect for the season. It's all in how you style them. And because fall is sorta warmer in the day time and cooler at night you can take advantage of layering to transition from day to night. For an example, during the day you can rock a blouse, leather shorts, pumps, and a clutch. To transition for a cooler night you can add heavier pieces such as a blazer, tights, knee high boots, and maybe a scarf. Again, that's what I love about the fall season- you have so many options. To give you some ideas of how to style leather shorts we've outlined several options to choose from. We hope you'll be motivated to give this look a try this winter!!

STYLE MOTIVATION: How To Rock Baggy Khaki Trousers
-
As I was browsing www.vogue.com I noticed most of the Fall 2012 runways had a new trend that most don't bother with- baggy khaki trousers! I feel like skinny jeans and leggings have dominated the trend reports but wide legged and baggy is still in. So I've created two looks to inspire you to rock baggy khakis! Its kind of a menswear inspired look too! And I really added a lot accessories for that very reason. We have to add some sassiness to this trend, right!?! Are you motivated to give this trend a try? Let us know!

Happy Friday Fashion Addicts!!! Today's look is all about the new season- AUTUMN! I wanted to incorporate the season's colors as well as the most popular trends. For this look I used browns and burgundy. And for the trends I incorporated floral prints, the quilted bag, tall boots, and an amazing blazer. The looks started with the floral dress and then I pulled colors from the dress for the rest of of the items. And let's briefly talk about the jewelry. I recently did a post on Karla's Closet on my personal blog EtcBlogMag.com- well Karla designed this jewelry. It's amazing right!?! She is one of my fashion blogger idols and this is something I would love to do- design clothing or jewelry as a fashion blogger. Its very inspiring! So definitely check out her line of jewelry. I think she is currently in the process of designing more too! So leave a comment...let us know what you think of today's outfit of the day as well as how you like Karla's designs.
Mixing Prints: Starring Solange Knowles

Has anyone mastered the mixed prints trend this season? Whether you have or not, love it or hate...its an extremely hard trend to get right. If you need help definitely check out my article THE ART OF MIXING PRINTS on www.etcblogmag.com! But for a mini lesson let's check out Solange who is the Queen of Mixing Prints! She recently was spotted in NYC at the Alexander Wang after party rocking this look- embellished palazzo pants, a printed top, denim jacket, a bright messenger bag, and a Babatunde hat. The hat is from an African designer...Solange recently shot a video there and must have come across the designer.

I haven't found their official website but here's their facebook in case you're interested in their hats. When looking at Solange's outfit there is really no method to her madness...and that's what I love about her. But to master this trend keep this in mind...for the look for less I first started with this navy printed palazzo pants, added a stripped shirt that has both navy and white which I pulled from the pants. That is the key to mixing prints...you can mix any print you want but make sure the colors are similar. I then pulled the pink print from the pants to find this amazing bright messenger bag. Finally, I added a brown hat, brown & navy wedges, and simple jewelry. So we are definitely mixing prints but for some reason it just flows. What do you think of mixing prints? Did we nail it?

Get Her Look For Less: Angela Simmons’ Sweatshirt Dress

Angela Simmons usually doesn't do much when it comes to my style senses, lol...but she has been "doin' it" during fashion week. I'm officially a style fan! She has shown so much originality and versatility in NYC. And speaking of being original...Angela rocked this sweatshirt dress with printed detailed sleeves at the Cynthia Rowley Spring 2013 Show (Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week). She pulled colors from the sleeves to finish up her look by adding the blue messenger bag, yellow pumps, a multi-color bracelet, a red ring, red lips, and red nails. That is a style tip that everyone should take notes on. When you wear a printed item you can easily take colors from the print and spread it throughout your outfit to make it look fresh and not too "matchy matchy". So...I've also styled a look for less inspired by Angela Simmons below. I found a simple gray sweater dress and if you wanted to get Angela's sleeves you could replace them by making this a DIY project. This may be a good DIY post we will put up in the near future. If you try this look please email us your pictures. And please, leave a comment...what do you think of Angela's look? Do you think her style has evolved!?!

Fashion WIN or FAIL??…:Kim Kardashian Colorblocking At LAX

Dang, you can catch all the latest trends by hanging out at the airport knowadays. Reality TV personality and Kanye's girl, Kim Kardashian was seen at LAX recently looking stylish, as usual. Although lately her style has changed so much. Her stylist was Monica Rose but from the looks of it I don't think she is styling her anymore. Don't quote us on this because I'm not really sure...its just an observation. Kim rocked a wool contrast dress, black leather boots, a leather tote, and sunglasses (at night LOL). Nah, but for real celebs probably need sunglasses at all times because of all the flash from paparrazzi cameras. Overall, I really like the concept behind this look and it was pretty simple to recreate. Below is a look for less which I styled for you. I added a pop of color with red lipstick as an added bonus! And please, leave us a comment to let us know what you think of Kim's style. Has it changed? Do you love it or hate?

Get Her Look For Less: Jennifer Lopez’s Jumpsuit in NYC

Jennifer Lopez was recently spotted in her fav place- NYC! She was snapped by the paparrazzi leaving her hotel rocking this a-mazing cream color jumpsuit. It's so flattering on her figure and she is styled to perfection. At first glance one may think that the the color is used too much in one outfit but I think because of the fit that there is no need for a pop of color. The entire look is cream and it works. When you do wear a simple color like this you should definitely rock accessories like J-Lo! She is rocking her signature aviators, studs, an over sized bracelet and/or watch, platform pumps, and nude make-up. This look is very inspiring and I've created a look for less which is pictured above. All the items illustrated are less than $100 each and they are so dope. To put this look together simply click the thumbnails below the picture and you will be directed to the site. This look is a perfect day outfit! And even more perfect because it won't put a hole in your wallet.
