✓ Checks ✓

Checks, Checks, Checks, Checks, Checks! As long as you have check print in your wardrobe, have no fear! Check print seems to be making its way into fashion right now and while many people have asked me how to make it look less like a picnic, I try to help them understand that as long as you have a little, it will always go a long way. Some like to really check it up and some like to soften the look and make it more simple. You could go either way, just remember that less is sometimes more, unless you are Lady Gaga of course.




 Add some check print to your wardrobe by trying Burberry London Exploded Check Print Shirt at Nordstrom for $295. You can also try out DKNY Sleeveless Stretch Silk Check Print Cozy Top at Bloomingdales on SALE NOW for $158.


All That Glitters

I don't believe it when people say "Diamonds are a girls best friend." I believe that anything sparkly is a girls best friend. (Boys, take note.)




That being said, anything that glitters, you must pick up and take home. Why you might ask? Anything glittery, sparkly or that has a ton of sequins is perfect and totally in style for this season. Not only is it great that it's trendy for this season, but it is always PERFECT for the holiday!



Red Hot

One of the latest trends in hollywood is red pants! Red has always been a popular color in fashion and is always a good color to make a bold yet classy statement.






Not only are women wearing red pants but men are starting to come out of their comfort zone as well and add a pop of red to their wardrobe.





Try Gap's 1969 Mid-Weight Legging Jeans in watermelon for $70 to add some red hot color to your stylish selection of clothing.

Chunky Knits

You can bundle up in these sweater-style pieces for a look that is soft, comfy and sweet. Just in time for those windy winter days, find your favorite chunky knit to keep you toasty and cozy. Try for the Roxy Cozy Down Sweater for $60 or my personal favorite, the Ralph Lauren Shawl Hand-Knit Cardigan for $598.


You can find chunky knits in scarves, neck warmers, gloves and hats too.

Look for an adorable and affordable Open Knit Neck Warmer at Forever 21 for $13.


The perfect knit hat for the holiday season is found at Nordstrom, the Collection XIIX Embellished Beret for $28.
