This Maggy London print silk twill shift dress was recently seen on Cynthia Nixon while she was filming the Sex and the City movie, and is now available at Nordstrom for $148. That’s not bad for a piece that you can wear long before the movie hits theaters, putting yourself way ahead of Miranda. She wore the dress with a gold metallic belt at her natural waist, and big gold metallic earrings. And keep in mind that if they’re in the Sex and the City movie, metallic accessories are sure to stay around and are a good investment!

Bargain POTW

I found a great deal on the cutest babydoll jacket–just $24.90! Perfect for the light fall weather we’ve been having, this jacket will be great for spring, too. I really like how it gathers in the front, and the rounded collar, large two-button closure, cuffed button sleeves, and faux buttoned pocket flaps work together to complete this adorable look. Available in two colors, choose to stand out in stylish plum, or keep in sync with this season’s gray trend.

Those chilly fall days aren’t here, yet, (hey, I’m not complaining!) but they will be soon, so here are some great daytime sweaters to wear to the office, shopping, lunch with friends–anywhere not too fancy. This first pick is a BB Dakota cable-knit tunic (left) for just $36.90. It looks chic with jeans with or without a long-sleeve tee underneath, and can even be worn as a dress with black or charcoal tights.

The IT bags this season have lots of stud detail and patent leather and metallic shine. Especially big are the medium-sized satchel and over-sized clutch. This Kathy Van Zeeland satchel (left) from her Bling It On II collection is designed with croco and rhinestone accents for ultimate shimmer–perfect for day or night for just $79.00. Or, get the sassy downtown look with a GUESS “Gloss” hobo bag (left-center), jam-packed with lustrous hardware and glossy imitation ostrich trim for $85.00. For a more classic look, Elliot Lucca also makes a great Status metallic woven hobo bag (right-center) for $198.00. But if you want to go all out, then I recommend this gorgeous Isabella Fiore Pump Up The Volume pewter satchel (right) for $650. Its dark silver leather, antique silver hardware, twisted top handles, and pom-pom detail make a fablously chic style statement. Go to the jump for our top over-sized clutch picks.

Sequin dresses for evening wear are huge this season. So, I’ve gathered a collection of eight shining styles to meet budgets across the board–from low-end, but still chic Forever 21 to mid-range of around $200 to high-end, designer dresses over $400. The first dress on the left is a sequin baby doll dress from Forever 21–very cute, yet sexy at the same time. The next dress is a hot, young As U Wish sequin tube dress from Nordstrom for $54. Or, if you want to go more sophisticated, try the mid-range Quotation black sequin-trim dress (mid-right) from Bloomingdale’s for $178. My favorite is the Sean Collection sequin corkscrew-hem cocktail dress (right) for $266. The long flowy tendrils at the bottom give it such a glamorous look! Go to the jump for fabulous high-end sequin dresses.

For the entire week, we’ll be selecting great fall finds to keep you on trend this season for as little bank as possible, while still looking fabulously fashionable. Today, I’ve selected these very chic BCBGirls Tate Pewter Metallic Kid leather booties at Nordstrom for $128.95. The pewter color is perfect to keep you shining strong ’80s-style without causing a melt down in too-bright silver boots. I really like the plunging collar-line–it creates a dramatic, super sleek look. Plus, the 3 3/4″ heel isn’t too high, so they’re still bearable to wear out around town. But be careful, you might want to get them in a slightly larger size, I hear they run a half size too small.

I know I’m always looking for some good flats, especially for fall when chilly weather requires keeping those piggies covered. So, for this week’s bargain pick, I chose this red BP. ‘Edie’ patent-leather ballet flat, but since it’s only available in two sizes, 5.5 and 9, I’m also including this cute BP. ‘Edie’ calf hair dalmatian print flat (although I’m not sure how I feel about the whole calf hair bit)–both on sale for just $21.90 at Nordstrom.

Yay or Nay
By Elaine LaPersonerie on September 19th, 2007

It’s a sandal right? Or a pump? Actually, maybe it’s a slingback! Oh no wait, it must be an open toed sha-bootie! Actually, now I’m really confused. What IS this? This “what is it?” style can be found in every store and I’m just not in love! For example, this gray Moschino pair is being described as a “sandal” and is available for $440 at Nordstrom. But it’s a hefty investment for a shoe that is still searching for an identity. What do you say? Yay or Nay?
