Remember this dress that I wanted, but didn't quite have the 551 bucks for it? I found a casual version of it for $22.19!

Look for Less- Maxi Dress
Slacker-I know. I haven't even been busy- just lazy. Oh, and there is nothing too exciting to report. I am not in labor, but my doctor won't let me travel more than an hour away. The 4th of July just got a lot less exciting.

Look for Less- Studded Loafers
I have been coveting these Jimmy Choo studded loafers. Unfortunately, at $650, the reality of buying them was comical.
Then, I found these from Hallelu Boutique.
And they were only $32. So I bought them. (I want to be an intimidating teacher.) I also wore them to a doctor's appointment yesterday, which really confused Husband on what message I wanted to send. They are really comfortable. They run a little big, so I would order a 1/2 size down.

Look for Less- Quilted Boots
While looking through some of my favorite gossip sites (sad, I know), I fell in love with these outfit Reese Witherspoon wore out while antique shopping. Almost everyone adores Reese's laid-back, California style, and I too can really appreciate a more casual ensemble. (Getting on the floor with first graders while in a straight skirt can pose a problem.)
I found these similar Sperry Top-Sider "Hingham" Rain Boots at Bloomingdale's. I think they are precious and perfect for dreary rainy/snowy weather. Best part, the are under $100. Hello Christmas List!

But what really had me, were her flat, quilted boots.

SJP Look for Less
Sarah Jessica Parker has been my favorite fashion icon since her Hocus Pocus Days. She takes risks, wears what she wants, and looks great doing it. Even her fails are hits in my book. I have had this picture of her tagged forever (like Mother's Day.) I think she looks so effortlessly chic, and I cannot wait to try this look for fall.
Since I do not make SJP's multimillions, here is the look for less:)

Pink + Leopard Look for Less
To say I like animal print is comical.
I love animal print.
And when I saw this pink and leopard look on Pinterest, I knew it had to be copied. Girls, get yourself some leopard shoes. Yesterday.

Kourtney Kardashian Look for Less
In case you didn't notice, it is as hot as blue blazes outside.

The oldest Kardashian sis paired it with great leopard sandals and cat-eye, tortoise shell sunglasses to complete the look. You can get Kourtney's Look for Less!

Look for Less- Colorblock
Image from Gucci Runway courtesy of Savvy Spice
I just cannot get enough of the colorblock trend. Celebrities are loving it too.
Iman
Katie Holmes
Jessica Alba
Pippa
Even my friend, ABray, and I took a spin on it.
The great thing is, you don't have to spend a lot either. I loved this Michael Kors dress. However, the $1,795 price tag was a massive deterrent. (It is a bad sign when you know that even if the dress was 80%, you still couldn't afford it.)
Never to fear, I found this similar dress at Macy's, that is over 97% less than the cost of this lovely Michael Kors dress. Why splurge, when you can save!
Quite similar, right?

Blake's Look for Less
Yesterday I finished day one of my summer job. It felt very adult. I wonder if it is too early to ask for a company car?
On the plane ride from Miami, I decided to read Bethany's Glamour. The cover girl was Blake Lively, and I LOVE her (despite the fact that she is 23 and is dating THE Leonardo DiCaprio.) Not only is she stunning (pretty sure her legs alone are as tall as me), a Chanel spokesmodel (dreams do come true), but she has a great sense of style.
I loved her entire spread in Glamour, but found this photograph really striking my fancy...

Now, like I said (here), I can't exactly rock the micro-mini short short, so here is my version of Blake's Look for Less..with a personal flair :)

Katie Holmes Look for Less
I feel that Katie Homes has had some major hits and misses in fashion. However, I am L-O-V-I-N-G this look (including her shiny, glossy hair....sigh)
Now, Katie's Look for Less. The pencil skirt is a little more than I would normally spend, but two years ago, I bought an orange pencil skirt and consider it a staple in my closet. It is a nice spin on the basic black pencil skirt.

Pippa's Look for Less by Zara
It is easy to say that I have major style crush on Pippa Middleton. When she wore that white, column gown to fulfill her MOH duties, I was lusting to be a bridesmaid. As she departed the wedding festivities, she looked AMAZING (and you know I love a blazer.) If that had been me, I might have been in sweats with a sign that said- "I hate my life, my sister just married a prince."
But not chic Pippa...
Zara has become one of my new favorite stores (despite a recent incident that involved an attack on a mannequin.) It is accessible, affordable, and I am obsessed with their latest collection (hello color block!)
