CHECKLIST Fall Fashion 2012

I realize it’s mid-October, but after my month of health and computer issues, I’m ok with the fact that my fall shopping is very much still in progress. (Not to mention, it’s still 80+ degrees here!)

On the list (some checked off, some not)…

1. Rebecca Minkoff mini MAC, $195 /  2. Tory Burch cat eyes, $149  / 3. NARS “Tiber” lipgloss, $26
 4. Joie blouse, $228 / 5. Wildfox “Je T’aime” tee, $64 / 6. Marc by Marc Jacobs sweater, $197.50
7. J.Brand cargo skinnies, $268 / 8. Topshop biker jacket, $310 / 9. J.Brand waxed jeans, $218 

10. Sam Edelman booties, $160 /  11. Tory Burch iPhone case, $48 / 12. DV by Dolce Vita loafers, $79

 /

Also refer to these past posts for more options and styling ideas!
#1. Burgundy Bags
#5. French Phrase Tops
#6. Cable Knit Sweaters

#10. Chunky Heel Booties
#12. Smoking Loafers

 /

My strategy is to invest in key pieces that can be mixed ‘n matched, and throw in a few affordable trendy items for fun!

What’s on your list this season?

    I used that Joie python blouse in a look I styled last month for Saks – it is amazing in person. I know the price is a bit steep but it’s beautiful! (and I love all of your other picks, of course. your style is on-point!)

    Love that rebecca minkoff bag – it seems to be popping up everywhere I look lately! Also, really like all the burgundy stuff you picked out. I’ve been eyeing a bag at kate spade for awhile and now the whole website is on sale til Sun, Oct 21. In fact, just blogged about my bag excitement over here!!

    Lucky you that it’s still 80° in your city! In Paris it’s rainy, rainy & cold :(
    Anyway, I LOVE this Tory Burch Iphone case, I’m a pink addict!

    Love these picks! I hope it cools off soon, I really want to start wearing my Fall clothes :) I tried wearing a sweater earlier this week with shorts, but it was still too hot!

    Ahh loving all of your picks!! I am behind on my fall shopping as well! I am dying for a chunky knit sweater, leather leggings and some waxed jeans…and a fab pair of booties!

    It’s so hard to shop for Fall when it’s a million degrees outside. Still, I managed to buy a pair of burgundy Sam Edelman booties!
