cheap chic 4.0


back by request is another cheap chic post! here are three items of what i think are going to be the biggest trends come late fall and winter time! 



1. glitter clutches 
glitter is a girls best friend, so why not add it to everything, including fashionable accessories! this gold glitter clutch goes with practically everything, and it's super festive around the holiday season. best part is, you can wear it with a casual outfit or to a very fancy event! 

2. everyone knows that knee high riding boots are in style, but now everyone and their mothers owns a pair. i'm talking everyone. so with these short booties, you can still be trendy while still being on top of all the new trends! i think these are going to be a huge trend come december/january (on the non-snow days) so start wearing them now trend-setters! 



3. not wearing white after labor day just applies to pants and shoes, not scarves! these super cozy infinite scarves are going to be another big trend! they too, go with every outfit, and make you look and feel very cozy and bundled up! 


all in all, these are three great pieces that every one is going to be wearing before you know it! also, they all go with pretty much everything in your closet so that's another reason to buy them! 


thanks for reading! 

what do you think is going to be a huge trend?

cheap chic 3.0 (fall edition)

when it comes to fall shopping, i find that everything is sooo expensive! i guess all of the material to stay cozy comes at a cost! but i've found three fall things that are key elements to every girls wardrobe, and they're cheap too! 

boots are a must have for the fall time! the tory burch ones are to die for, but i would die if i ever had to hand over that much money for one pair of shoes! the target ones look very very expensive, but are very affordable! i've heard that if you take care of them, that they can last at least three seasons! why pay more than you should?

chunky sweaters are the easiest way to look fashionable, on the days that you really don't want to! they're warm and cozy, but looks super stylish when paired with skinny jeans and a pair of (cheap) boots! the la garçonne sweaters is adorable! call me crazy, but if i didn't know better i would think that the gap sweater was the same as the $415 dollar one! 

leather purses are the best way to accessorize! they go with everything, but have warm feel. also, they look great with the right pair of boots!



overall, i think these are great cheap finds, and i can't wait to wear my boots, chunky sweaters, and leather purse!! 


whats your favorite fall clothing item/accessory?

cheap chic 2.0

hey ya'll! i have receive some great feed back on my cheap chic post, and have decided that i will do another one! i have been absolutely loving all the new (and old) collections that have been put out this summer. even though i am in love with them, i unfortunately don't have enough mula to spend on them! so here are a few items that i love, and their long lost (cheaper) twins! hopefully this post will save you a few paychecks! 

1. as most you y'all know, color blocking is really in for the summertime. i guess you could say that my style is minimalistic, and therefore i only color block with little things such as clutches! they are such a great way to color block your out fit without going overboard, and when/if color blocking goes out of style, you can still use this accessory in your wardrobe! all in all, clutches are a timeless piece no matter what color you choose!

2. maxi skirts are probably one of my newest favorite things. i used to wear long skirts when i was in elementary school (trend setter or nerd?), and so when the maxi skirt trend came out i was reluctant to try it out. but, recently  (yesterday) i randomly started liking them again! i like when they hit right at your ankle so you can still see your shoes, and it also makes you look a little taller. also, some maxi skirts can double as dresses and beach cover ups, so if you find the right one it can be used in multiple ways! all in all, maxi skirts are a great staple piece to go in your closet for the summer time, and can also be a transition piece for the fall time!

3. jean vests are hot on the market right now! i honestly think that if you wear them with the right things then they can instantly become preppy. i think that most preppy people are afraid to wear them because they are afraid they look to grungy. i have yet to find one in a store that doesn't look to "masculine" on me, but as soon as i find on that i like, i will definitely be purchasing it! let me know if you would like to see how i would style my jean vest if i had one!
