For Love & Lemons Skivves Dupe

The Love You Knot Bondage Bralette  featured on the cover of Harper's Bazar

For Love & Lemons is one of my new favorite labels. Their undergarment line that they call "Skivves" is filled with unique pieces, lots covered in beautiful lace.  Check out the Skivves collection here if you'd like to know more.
Here is a great (and cheaper!!) alternative for one of their bralettes, that would look perfect layered under a tank top with a low back.

On the left is the velvet For Love & Lemons bralette (linked above), and on the right is the Velvet Vixen Strappy Black Bralette available at lulus.com. For a bra that is mostly about looks and really doesn't offer a lot of support I would go for the cheaper dupe from LuLu's.

Structured Handbags A La Celine

      Celine handbags are just gorgeous and all the rage with the celebrities, and bloggers. But, at a price range of 2,000 to 5,000 per bag, I'll just dream of Celine. Today I'm showing you some similar structured handbags that won't break the bank.
Both dupes are available at Daily Look, a smaller and larger handbag.

I love the idea of getting this style of bag for less, save even more by using this promo code I just found. Use code "GET20TODAY" to save $20 off of a $75 purchase, plus free shipping on dailylook.com.

On Trend: Bell Bottoms

Bell bottoms are everywhere these days. They're perfect festival flare, or look great with a casual sweater. An added bonus, they are so comfortable!
Novella Royale has been dominating the bell bottom game, but a pair will set you back around $140.
Want to try the look, but not ready to invest all of that cash? I've got you covered!

I recently discovered a clothing website called PYLO, above are three pairs of bells from their website. They range in price from $40 - $60. The black and white pair on the right is very similar to Novella's signature prints.

On the left is a pair of bells from Tillys $34.99 compared to a pair of Novella Royale Janis Bell Bottoms $139.00. The Tilly's pair are definitely a similar look but cost more than $100 less.

Here I am at Treasure Island Music Fest last month. I chose to invest in a pair of Janis Bells by Novella Royale in dark dial print, because I know I will get a lot of use out of them. I plan on getting some of the less expensive pairs above so I can have more of a variety without doing too much damage to my wallet.

The Perfect Cocktail Dress.. Duped!

Today I have the perfect cocktail party dress. It's never to early to start planning your holiday outfits, right?
When I saw the Dolce Vita X Revolve Iman Dress  it was love at first sight! Unfortunately it sold out before I could purchase.

But luckily I found a dupe at a fraction of the cost! 

Here is the Floral Lace Sheath Dress from Forever 21, $34.80. They are low on sizes in black, but luckily it comes in 3 other colors. It is quite similar to the Dolce Vita dress, featuring the same cut out detailing and lace. Sexy yet classy, Cheers!

Flat OTK Boots

Welcome to my blog! I love keeping up with new trends in fashion, but sometimes I can't afford the big price tags. I plan to feature affordable, on trend looks that are comparable to designer brands.
Today I'm featuring OTK (over-the-knee) boots, which are huge this fall.

My favorite flat option: Stuart Weitzman 5050

At $635 I just planned on admiring this look from afar. But, luckily I found  some dupes!

                      

Forever 21 OTK $39.90                French Blu OTK stretch from Target $59.99 

I think I'll be purchasing the above boots from Target, they're currently having a buy one pair get another 50% off promotion.
