How to wear a skater style dress
Skater Dress: one in which the top (bodice) is form fitted and then slightly flares out to be loose below the bustline or waistline.

What's Trending Now: Tigers
Cats may be all over the Internet but tiger faces are popping up all over the fronts of trendy shirts and sweatshirts. Although not the king of the jungle (that would be the lion in case any of you missed the movie lion king) tigers appear to be ruling apparel at least for right now to the extent that Kenzo's Tiger Sweater sold out in TWO days.

Francy Answers: What to wear with seafoam green pumps
Recently reader Amanda wrote in " what you would wear with seafoam green pumps?" I personally love seafoam green and although I don't own a pair, I do own other accessories in this color. The trick to wearing seafoam green is making sure that the rest of your outfit is slightly more subdue. I personally like pairing it with black, tan, and blue. In particular, cobalt blue is a rich color that compliments this light green beautifully. With those tips in mind I put together two looks to serve as inspiration.

Must Have Monday
Originally I planned on talking about my recent obsession with sequin in general for today's "Must Have Monday" however I stumbled upon this little gem dress decided it was too special to share the spotlight and deserved its own dedicated post. It's called the "Rare Sequin Collar And Cuffs Shift Dress" dress and it's from Asos.com. I really love this dress because it combines my love for chiffon and sequins and rolls it all into one big happy ball of pretty. I could so see myself rocking this on my birthday or for a fun New Year's party in the city, there's just one problem... the price. The dress cost $127 and although that's not crazy expensive, it's expensive enough that I can't justify to myself spending that amount on a dress I'm probably only going to wear once. I would love to splurge and treat myself to this dress but since I've already "treated" myself several times since payday I think I'm going to just admire this love from afar (but if it goes on sale, all bets are off).
Comment below and let me know what you think of this dress, do you love it, would you spend $127 for it? Don't forget to let me know what's on your must have list this week?!

What's Trending Now: Beanies
Another one of our old favs from the 90's is back, and although it shares it's name with the ultimate icon of the 90's the beanie baby, this trend actually has a purpose. The "beanie" hats are back (right in time for winter I might add) and have been given quite a facelift. No longer are they just for the men in your life trying to keep warm, now they come in fun and different colors and shapes, all of which are perfect to give your outfit that last finishing touch this winter.
Comment below and let me know what you think of this trend, will you be rocking it or leaving this one for the boys?

What's Trending Now: Cropped Turtlenecks {Look for Less Edition}
Save Item: ASOS $14 / Splurge Item: American Apparel $30
Sleeveless turtlenecks in the 90's were like the shoulder pads of the 80's, everyone was doing it and no one was quite sure why. Are you trying to keep from catching a cold or are you trying to hide a hickey from your parents a la Full House? What ever the case apparently the 90's are back... and I'm loving it! All jokes aside I love this trend and can't wait till mine arrives in the mail. I bought a regular plain old sheer turtle neck from Express last year to wear to work in the winter and to my surprise, I ended up wearing it more than I anticipated. Since the summer I've been on the hunt for a cropped sleeveless variety but couldn't find one anywhere until I finally tracked one down at American Apparel. I liked the look of it but not the price so I held off on buying it. Naturally, I was super pumped when I stumbled upon this one at ASOS yesterday during their Cyber Monday Sale, for less than half the price of the American Apparel one.

What's Trending Now: Black Pleated Leather Skirts
A black pleated skirt is like a school girl gone bad. No one expected it, no one knows exactly when it happened, and although we might not admit it... we all secretly want to do it too.
With that being said its no surprise that amidst the leather (and vegan leather) trend this season, the pleated leather skirt in particular has been making quite the number of cameos (everyone from Urban to Bergdorf is carrying a version of the look in their stores!) Brands such as Marc by Marc Jacobs, Forever 21, and Free People have all taken a stab at creating their own version of this piece, making it a trend that's accessible to all wallet sizes :)
