LE CATCH

It's rare to come across a pair of boots that are truly warm, winter-ready, and sexy, but these shearling-trimmed beauts by Schutz manage to be all those things and cost less than you think.

A friend of mine wants a new LBD, suitable for birthday drinks and dancing. I recommend this festive, fringed number!

Anyone who sees me regularly knows how obsessed I am with this faux fur-trimmed Harvey Faircloth jacket as I've worn it like crazy ever since I bought it last year. Those who have coveted it--and there are many!!--will be happy to know it's been re-issued and available at Shopbop. (Additional bonus: Shopbop is staging a surprise sale, offering up to 40% off key winter styles through Thursday, November 3. Highlights include this Ulla Johnson embroidered top, these super versatile Dolce Vita black boots, these Hilfiger Collection sailor pants, this Georgia Alice statement blouse, this Clare V. suede mini tote, and this holiday party-ready Prabal Garung dress.)

Subtle nuances, we all know, can make or break an outfit. Well, the latest split second, outfit-making styling trick is to simply tuck in your sweater. The shirt-like effect is polished, pulled together and up to date. To avoid muffin-top side effects, try cropped, lightweight knits such as these by Zara (pictured above), Topshop, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Endless Rose, Club Monaco and Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini.

I'd like to zip around everyday in these frayed hem jeans!

This pic inspires me to freshen up my jeans-and-top uniform with a feminine vintage-looking blouse, such as this, this, this, this and this (on sale!), along with colorful footwear, such as these by Via Spiga, J.Crew, Jeffrey Campbell, Kendall + Kylie, Guiseppe Zanotti, Kate Spade, and Adenoah x Jonak (pictured above). I love it when simple substitutions yield super stylish benefits!

Those not passionate about this season's pink sweater might prefer this pastel blue bell-sleeved H&M statement instead. As for me, I'll take both, please!

Looks like there's no better way to update my winter wardrobe than with a hot pink sweater! I'm thinking it might just compensate for the lack of warm sunlight, plus it's the color right now (and next spring, too!). I'm eyeing these pink pretties from Ganni (pictured above and below), Vince, J.Crew, Acne Studios, Stella McCartney, H&M, and Spencer Vladimir.

It's summer somewhere--hence justification for buying one of these cute cotton Rhode Resort dresses! (I already have one in yellow and love its flowy easiness.) I'm leaning toward the floral print on the top right!
