Daily Dish - head to toe

Head to Toe

So you are an online shopping newbie. An you don't really see what the big deal (outfit) is...

No Worries, we understand the whole head-to-toe, to purse, to shoes thing down to an art. It easy breezy - three steps and your are done..

ONE: Start with your favorite piece. Simply, browse the web and select that one must-have. Always remember must-haves should scream you. As a quick tip exclusively shop only those sites which reflect your individual vibe. Infact pull together a top three list.

For tutorial sake - we choose this ivory dress (shown) from Anthropologie as our must-have.


TWO: Select your versatile accessories carefully. As accessories can make or break the bank. We shopped online and found the same style of shoe all varying in cost.
1. The Slingbacks
2. Comfy Leather Espadrille at Solestruck.com
3.Charles David Crumpet at Solestruck.com

A finally bring on the extras...
THREE: Opt for those current styles. It makes or breaks the fresh factor of any outfit. This season choose a hobo bag such as the Large Pleated Tote from Cole Haan (shown), layer those long necklaces, double up on those metallic (even tarnished) bracelets, and wooden earrings.

General rule of thumb for this season- add bits of texture and relax those shapes...

Penny Pincher

Has your holiday spending left you shaking your penny bank and managing a social schedule which leaves you to busy to care?

Our Suggestion: Why not, take the opportunity "to save your pennies", opting to spend less on your event wear. Think about it, you only prance around here-n-there and those trendy eye-catching (guy-catching) favorite finds never seem to have much wearability.

An while those coveted designer finds may put a bigger smile on your face then that boring date. They maybe to pricey for your ever changing event wear. Now of course, the higher quality may save you from repurchasing, but changing out your clothes can keep you looking fresh.

Either way, it's your choice to Spend or Save.

Send: Convetiable Halter Dress, $262.00 (above) at shopbop.com from the wonderful new Karanina collection is worth every penny.

But - Why not opt to spend less and get the same look?

Save: Flared Goddess Dress, List Price: $27.80 at forever21.com.

We highly recommend both options...
