Tart Veronica Dress

Tart Infinity dress worn two ways

Today is another great sale on Gilt.com. One of today's sales include fabulous dresses from Tart like the Veronica dress above for $89. Tart is known for their stylishly chic and comfortable jersey knits so you can look great while feeling like you are in your pajamas. What's not to love?!?! They also have their long Infinity dress on sale for $119, which is their version of the multi-way dress. It is absolutely gorgeous but the only downfall is the top leaves no room for undergarments so if you are one of those that are blessed with the ability to go without I highly suggest you purchase the dress immediately it is that great. Once again remember Gilt is members only but membership is free. Let me know if you need an invite. Happy Shopping!

Deal of the Day

Old Navy Linen-Blend Open-Front Vest

Today's deal of the day is this knit vest from Old Navy. It's a great layering piece that can be worn now with a white tank and jeans or with white jeans for a slightly dressier look and thrown over a long sleeve tee in the fall. Also, the grey color assures that it will still be a closet staple well into spring. It comes in purple and cocoa as well which also look great. My favorite part is the surprise of a fun little ruffle that goes across the back and the fact that it is only $22.50. :)

Deal of the Day

It's never too early to start holiday shopping. If you have any foodies in your family Borders is a great place to kick off your holiday spending spree. I was there last week and found some great cookbook buys in their bargain books section. The Oprah Magazine Cookbook is on sale for $3.99, Bobby Flay Cooks American is $5.99, and Nigella Lawson Feast and Katie Lee Joel's Comfort Table are both $7.99. All four would make great additions to any cook's collection for a super cheap price.

Love for Loft

Recently Ann Taylor Loft has revamped their style in favor of a more youthful and trendy look that still stays with the sophistication and all ages style that Loft is known for. I for one am a huge fan of the new look. Before I mostly shopped at Loft for their work appropriate knits but now they have really stylish wearable pieces that can go from work to play and their accessories line is fabulous. It's the perfect place for those that think a lot of the trendier styles out there are too overboard or unwearable for them. Their pieces now allow you to look fashionable, sexy and on trend while also looking subdued.

This look was put together for the store by stylist Kate Young who works with Maggie Gyllenhaal (my future sister in law :) hahaha), Rachel Weisz and Natalie Portman. I looooove absolutely everything about this look. It looks super cozy and a the mix of blue, black and brown along with the different stripes paired together give it a stylish fashionable feel that makes it look like you put a lot of thought into it when really you just threw it on. The best part about this outfit is that you can mix and match, wearing just the dress, the dress with the cardi, the cardigan with jeans or pair it with a skirt. The cardigan is definitely a staple piece that you will get a lot of mileage out of.

Although I am not a fan of flat boots since they usually make my feet look like skis I think I am going to have to give these a try. They look great with this outfit and would look super chic worn with tucked in skinnys and a blazer.

All three pieces are available here and are priced at $59.50 for the cardigan, $79.50 for the dress and $198 for the boots. All are a bit steep but if you sign up for their emails they frequently send out coupons for up to 40% off regular price.

Deal of the Day

Cooperative A-Line Skirt

Today's Deal of the Day is another fab find from Urban Outfitters. This skirt is a perfect transition piece to take you from summer to fall. You can pair it with a black and white striped tee or tank and sandals for summer. For fall you can up the looks Parisian chic look by adding a black blazer, tights and oxfords and if your feel like adding a little more fun toss on a straw fedora. The skirt can be found at Urban Outfitters for $38. And the best part is it has pockets, and who doesn't love a dress or skirt with pockets! :)
