The women in my life are always asking me for fashion tips and where to shop. So the other day I took the time to take my mother out shopping. She is always going through my closet and trying to borrow my things or copy my style. Recently I talked her into buying a few pairs of boots since she is always asking about my own; and now all she needs is a new outfit to go with them. Right now she has a pair of grey suede calf-high boots, black leather knee-high Steve Madden boots, and black buckle booties by Madden girl. I would love to help dress my mother but she is so picky and difficult to shop for. However, I did manage to find a few things for myself lol.

My new favorite dress by TakeOut, $20

On Fridays my favorite show Ugly Betty comes on and I religiously watch it every week. One of my favorite things about the show is the fashion. The character Betty may be "ugly" and can never wear an outfit that matches but everyone else on the show dresses on point! I get a lot of style inspiration from this show and many others. So I decided to put together a list of my favorite fashionable TV shows. Let me know what you think or feel free to share what your favorite shows are. By the way, these are in no particular order, I love them all the same!

 

The Hills (MTV)

 

 

Gossip Girl (the CW)

 

E! News & The Daily 10 (E)

 

 

I personally like to wear alot of dark colors. My closet is filled with a ton of little black dresses and grey and white clothing articles. Recently I went shopping and decided to buy a mustard yellow purse just to add a splash of color to my outfits. The bag I decided to buy was completely different from my usual purses and it really stands out with its aqua lining. I was lucky enough to find the purse at Target for only $7.50! Here are a few styles sported by some of my favorite celeb ladies and a few look-alikes all under $30.

Designers Derek Lam and Phillip Lim showed off a few sequin pieces in their individual lines this year at Fashion Week. Now sequin fashions are popping up everywhere; from clothes to shoes to accessories, sequins are it! For New Years Eve this year I plan on wearing a black sequin dress. I found the perfect one at agacistores.com. I wish that I could afford the dresses straight off the runway, but for now I will be okay shopping within my means. If you are looking for an outfit for the holidays check out a few of my favorite choices.
