looking fly on a dime, thrift shopping
As you can see from above, I've been feeling sweatshirts over the past year. From Mickey to my basic gray sweatshirt {less than $1 at Salv Army}, I love a good sweatshirt. And if you've been paying attention to what's trendy, you know sweatshirts are having a serious moment. Suddenly, they're chic and in vogue. They're no longer just the sloppy shirt you wear to the gym or on a lazy Saturday.
If you're looking to get in on the trend, here's how you can score a sweatshirt from your local secondhand shop and ways to style them, including a few DIY options.

affordable jewelry, looking fly on a dime
Icing is known for its affordable jewelry and accessories. And Monopoly is the game we all played as a kid {next to Uno, Monopoly was my fave!}. Well, now the two have come together and created a fun collection just in time for the holiday season.
Icing's Monopoly collection just debuted and as expected, it's cute, affordable and perfect for someone who loves a little sparkle.

looking fly on a dime, what i wore
It's no secret that I love anything fun, flirty and feminine. But the tricky part about wearing a super feminine piece, particularly tulle, is making sure you don't look like a four year old playing dress up. So when Kohl's sent over this LC Lauren Conrad Tulle Maxi Skirt {available mid November}, I had two thoughts. 1. I'm in love!!!! 2. What am I going to wear it with?!
It was actually quite easy to style this piece. I just whipped out a few wardrobe staples {blouse, chic earrings, bold purse} and a nice layering piece like a vest. And of course, everything was thrifted for just a few bucks.

jcpenney, jcpenney fall styles
About a week ago I dipped in to JCPenney at the Manhattan Mall. I was killing time in between meetings and didn't expect to find too much. But um, I was majorly surprised. I found a few pieces and couldn't resist trying them on. When I Instagrammed the houndstooth dress above, you guys all commented on how amazed you were at this being at JCP. It was affordable and super chic.
Besides having a really amazing sale going on, I had no trouble finding work appropriate wear, casual gear and even some cocktail attire.

Target tall boots, Target and Looking Fly on a Dime

Earlier this week I did what I normally do at least once a week: I went to Target! As expected, I found a ton of affordable fall options, including some stylish outerwear, bold accessories and even remnants of the latest designer collaboration. I was really impressed with the variety of boots, luxe for less purses and I was amazed to find two racks full of Phillip Lim for Target pieces.
