My Favorite Fall Pieces...

So, it is getting cold outside which means...its time to update the wardrobe...with a budget of course. So I typically like to focus on two things: getting some standout pieces and two, updating any staple pieces, (standard black or grey pants, standard shirts, etc).

For those who know me..I am super budget conscious...but I do splurge for the right pieces of fashion.

Here is an example of what I have purchased so far:

I found these awesome boots on zappos.com for only $99, (free s&h). They are Naughty Monkey style D-Ring. How did I know what size to get? I got my normal elephant size...and guess what they have free shipping and returns. So if it didn't fit...I can return it free of charge. I love it!! For the moms on the go...they are super comfy.

P.S. I needed a pair that would look great with long pants or a skirt. The slight slouch in the boot is perfect for those with super skinny legs or for those with a little extra. :) They distract the eye.

Next I went to one of my fav online stores for some basics. I love Victoria's Secret b/c they hover over a lot of different trends/styles and the prices are comfortable. Plus you can find a TON of coupon codes online, (type in coupons for Victoria's Secret). I was able to save an additional $30 plus get a free triple lipgloss set, (a value of $21 so they say).

Last year I purchased these great wide leg pants for VS. I loved them so much I went back for more!

They ride a bit below your hips, come in tall, (for those with a little extra height), and flare at the bottom. They were $69.50. you can't tell me that you wouldn't go out and spend more somewhere else!

Next, I went for some basic cords but with a fun twist. They have a "sailor" look to them. Just to spice things up a bit. Who needs the same old cords.

They were on sale for $29.50!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So my next purchase was more of an indulgence. Now that I work mostly from home, I needed a great pair of comfy lounge wear, (acceptable enough to run some errands in as well).

I am most excited about this set, yes I said set. For $68 you get:

1. a Camisole

2. a Wrap

3. Lounge Pants

For those of you who know me well...I adore my wraps. So look for my wrap worn with a great pair of jeans etc. More to follow on my wrap obsession... :)

I have also complimented my fall wardrobe with some Marshall's purchases...but I have yet to take pics of them. Who doesn't love Marshalls?

If any of you have some great fall wardrobe tips, please let me know. I think there is still room in my budget to "explore."
