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.
