Bring Out the Bootys!

Wednesday, October 15, 2008 0 comments
What other shoe is perfect for this season then boots? I don't know about you, but for me boots are the hardest shoes to pick out. Sure there are quite a lot of variaties out there, but they are either too expensive, or just don't look right. I've literally searched high and low for a pair that has everything I'm looking for: a decent price, high quality material, hits right below the knee, and has a low heel.

To save you guys some trouble, I've compiled a few popular styles all under $120!
Ankle Boots
These boots are a chic alternative to sandals or heels in the colder weather. They cover your entire feet, yet still maintain that dainty feel that heels do. They come in all types of colors and designs, so you're sure to find one that fits your style.
1. DSW ($49.95)
2. DSW ($44.95)
3. Macy' s ($115.00)
4. Macy's ($139.00)


Neutral Shades
The great thing about these boots are that they go with practically everything. Of course, that doesn't narrow it down that much seeing that even this neutral color comes in many shades. Most people tend to gravitate toward the darker brown color, which is the most common color. But try something like #4 if you want to stand out from the crowd. The slouchiness gives it a casual feel.

1. JCPenney ($109.99)
2. Target ($29.99)
3. Urban Outfitters ($158.00)
4. Old Navy ($44.50)

Classic Black
Dark boots are a must-have. They look amazing paired with black tights and a printed dress (can you tell I love tights?). If comfort is key, try some suede or moccasin boots. They are perfect if you want something low-key that still keeps you warm. Overall you can never go with black boots with a few interesting details.

1. Nordstrom ($79.95)
2. Asos ($63.11)
3. Forever 21 ($34.80)
4. Urban Outfitters ($69.99)

Drab: crazy prints and colors

Tuesday, October 14, 2008 0 comments
Now at Style Tabloid we're big fans of bright colors and patterns. We all know a funky accessory is a great addition to an outfit, but sometimes you have to be weary of over-doing it. Take for example, Christina Aguilera at the Africa Rising Film Festival. Maybe if the top was a tank I would have been a little more forgiving, but it's a long sleeve, turtle neck! The pattern itself is not flattering it all. To me it looks a big geometry mess. And none of the colors go well together. And then she had to decide to add purple, suede heels. Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this is a huge mess.

Fall Goodies at American Eagle

Monday, October 13, 2008 0 comments
I know for a lot of you fall weather is full-on, but even if you already went shopping for your fall wardrobe, what's the harm in adding more? Our motto is that girl can never have too many clothes. Especially if you're stocking up on pieces that can be worn over and over without it ever going out of style.

Here are some cute finds that will be a great addition to your closet:
1. Boyfriend Vest for $34.50
These come in two other colors, but we like the blue since it stands out, but it's still basic enough to re-create a thousand outfits if you're creative. It would give a vintage-y feel under a long sleeve, striped tee with layers of necklaces. Or wear it under a coat to give a pop of collar. This vest is so versatile since it works for any season.
2. Plaid scarf for $19.50
The great thing about this scarf compared to other plaid scarfs is that the pattern is subtle. You can wear this on top of a shirt even if it does have a strong pattern since the scarf won't compete with it. Like I said in my previous post scarfs are your best friend!
3. Skinny 77 jeans for $49.50
These jeans are a great addition to your fall wardrobe. The color is a black rinse which is a great update from your basic blue skinny jeans. Tuck these into your favorite fall boots for a streamlined look.
4. Plaid Peacoat for $129.50
Even though this might be a bit pricey for some of you frugal fashionistas, this is a classic piece of outerwear that will probably last for quite while. The color and pattern are time-tested combinations; this will never go "out of style". It's a good item to invest in if you live in a colder climate. You can transition right into winter with this classic peacoat.
5. Sparkle Party Shoes for $44.50
I know you might be wondering why I chose these shoes for fall. I know they're called "party shoes" but the cork heels and the neutral color of the sandals makes it easy to wear with a casual outfit. The great things about these shoes are that they will look amazing worn under some dark grey tights and a fall skirt. Plus, this is another great item that will last you through any season.

Beads and Gold

Friday, October 10, 2008 0 comments
One of my favorite fashion accessories are jewelry. But specifically bracelets because I love to pile on thin bangles, string bracelets, and wooden beads to create a slightly boho-chic look to any outfit I'm wearing. One of my favorite bracelet designs are by Orka Mesica. If this name is familiar with you, then I'm not surprised. If not, then maybe you've already seen some of her designs but just didn't know it! Her Hollywood clients love piling on her beaded bracelets decorated with 14K gold rings. Her most popular item at the moment seems to be her friendship bracelet for $125 (which can be seen on celebrities such as Lauren Conrad).

Here a couple bracelets that caught my eye:

Drab: Logo Overexposure

Thursday, October 9, 2008 0 comments
Everyone loves a good designer item. Especially if it's Chanel, for me anyways. But one thing that will always bug me is blaringly, obvious designer logos. Yes, designers do this on purpose to get their brand out there, which I completely understand. But if you're going to be carrying around an item that has as big of a logo as those two red C's on Ashley Tisdale's bag, then you should keep everything else down to a minimum. But no, she decided that she wasn't doing enough advertising so she decided to add the very apparent necklace too. If you can see it from these pictures, then it's too big/obvious! If you don't keep up with these DC stars, then you don't know that Tisdale is known for her flashy designer bags while out and about, on her daily trips to the Coffee Bean.

Don't make this mistake folks! No matter how much you love an item, keep the backward C's and the LV patterns on just one item in your outfit.

A tear jerker

Sorry if my title is a bit too "trying-too-hard-to-be-funny". It miraculously popped into my head and I had to check first if I had merely just remembered someone else's title.

Anyways, apparently these contact lenses are made so you can hang decorative wires adorned with crystals and flowers from them. So basically it looks like you're crying shiny crystals, but hey -- you're not. And they cost about £200 at the designer's online store.

I don't know about you, but I say no.

Scarfs are your best friend

Wednesday, October 8, 2008 0 comments
Hey ST readers! I'm a new addition to the team, and if you haven't noticed I've revamped the layout to this one. I think it's a lot cleaner, unique, and definitely fits the theme of our site.

For my first post, I'll make a tribute to one of my favorite accessories: scarfs. Unfortunately, it's not cold enough in my area to wear cardigans, let alone scarfs. But I'm sure for most of you, who live in more normal parts of the world, are already getting ready for the cold weather by bundling up. The best thing about scarfs are that they are totally functional, but can also turn an outfit from drab to fab! You can be wearing an all black outfit, but all you have to do is add a bright, yellow scarf and voilà -- instantly chic.

Here are a couple cute ones I've found browsing the net:






















(On the left): Urban Outfitter's Buffalo Plaid Scarf $28.00. (On the right): Juicy Couture's Logo Triangle Scarf $95.00.
