Star Light, Star Bright

It's almost Friday, let's celebrate with a starburst. A beautiful, eye catching, celebratory shape that usually a bit bigger and bolder than your normal jewelry. For that reason, I like to pair it with heavier knits.

Loft, Starburst Necklace, $39

I'm starting with my favorite. This necklace is perfectly fall and perfectly holiday. Its also a bit different in the bronze metal aspect.

Nordstrom Rack, Free Press Starburst Stud, $9

A great silver option with an even better price!

Shoptiques, Chibi Jewels Tiny Starburst Necklace, $36

How about a sweeter option? I like this simple charm necklace.

BaubleBar, Celestial Drops Earring, $36

A BaubleBar best seller, you've got to love a bright and blinged drop earring.

A starburst shape for jewelry is just a happy way to add detail to your outfit. It's bold and daring and I love it for winter.

Ponte Please?

Yesterday I mentioned the ponte pant. If you haven't discovered these beauties, they are a pant/legging mix that are more structured than a legging but stretchier than a jean or slack. Basically, perfectly professional and completely comfortable. Here are a few of my favorite options.

Nordstrom, KUT from the Kloth Diana Ponte Knit, $72

I love this brand. I wear their jeans and I'm thrilled they're now doing ponte. Look at this model's butt, it looks awesome.

Loft, Seamed Pont Pants, $49

Two words: elastic waist. Pair with a long sweater or button down.

Kohl's, Simply Vera Wang Skinny Ponte Pant, $27

MAJOR SALE ALERT!!! I love the heather gray option.

JCrew Factory, Gigi Pant with Pockets, $61

One of the things you sometimes give up with ponte is pockets. Not here. And in a simple navy hue.

I cannot recommend the ponte knit pant enough. It is a much more comfortable alternative to work pants and they go from desk to drinks easily.

Perfectly Plaid

It's plaid season. Cool, crisp, plaid time. The problem with plaid is that fine line between casual cool and cowboy. You know what I'm talking about. So I'm rounding up my favorite plaid tops this season and styled correctly, no one will mistake you for an overdue Halloween costume.

Macy's, Tommy Hilfiger Plaid Button Down Shirt, $49

A great combination of navy and red that is perfectly fitted for a slimmer look.

Gap, Flannel Plaid Relaxed Boyfriend Shirt, $54

And speaking of fitted, how about something not as much. Don't love the look? Add a skinny belt to create an hourglass or layer a sweater on top and add a statement necklace under the collar.

Modcloth, Harvest Your Interest Tunic, $44

A hi-low option that is perfectly feminine. Pair it with relaxed jeans or even knit ponte pants. 

Old Navy, Classic Plaid Poplin Shirt, $24

I love this combination of fall colors because it includes a bright red without looking too Christmasy.

A great plaid shirt is totally wearable in a feminine way. Add accessories, layer with sweaters, or embrace the relaxed fit. It's easily dressed up or down for work or play.
