Hello Fashion: February 2012

Monochromatic

To get my pearly belt, I took three necklaces and wrapped them together and clipped them to my front two belt loops. My blazer was long enough it covered past the back belt loops so you couldn't tell it was just clipped in the front.

Yellow Bright

In my last post I was talking about buying clothes off season. Last year I got this J. Crew cardigan at the end of summer on clearance for like $15 (Regular $62.00). I tucked it away in my closet for spring, it was a little too bright for winter. Now spring is here, and J. Crew is selling basically the same cardigan full price (here).

Here is my point: There is way to be a smart shopper. Buying off season is a big part of it! Sometimes you take a risk because trends change, so focus on staple items. I have always loved bright clothes so this cardigan wasn't a risk for me, I just lucked out that color is so trendy this year :)

Polka Dots with Flare

Add a little flare to your style. Seventies inspired denim is making a comeback this spring. Add wide legged denim with tees or blouses. I got this sheer polka dot blouse on mega clearance a couple weeks ago. $5.25!
