I don’t often shop at H&M (I find the sheer volume of items intimidating), but for a special piece like this Sweater with a Lace Collar ($29), I’ll make an exception. I’d wear it with wide leg white pants. I would accessorize the sweater by wearing a necklace under the collar so that it peaked […]

I love open cardigans. You can dress them up, dress them down. Wear them open and casual, or belt them for a more structured look. This Striped Open Cardigan ($79) has a great mix of neutrals and a good length to it. I would wear it for weekends with these distressed black jeans and an […]
The epaulets are a bit much, but this Contrast Trim Jacket ($79) is a nice combination of rocker chic and staid conservative. If you’re looking to add a few new jackets to your wardrobe, Mango is the place to go. If you’re buying your blazers at Forever21 or H&M, it might be time to make […]
I posted a link to this Vince Camuto Sweater Dress ($139, also in petites) in late December. Since then, nearly ten readers have e-mailed to let me know how much they love it. Given that this is something of a rarity, I thought I should post it again. The dress looks like the perfect thing […]
Florals in winter, groundbreaking. The moody color pattern of this River Island Grey Floral Miniskirt ($60) is sublime. It’s an excellent transition piece into spring. I would wear it with this grey, deep v-neck sweater from Bloomingdale’s. I also love the interplay with the delicate floral and this perfectly chunky grey fisherman’s sweater. If you […]
Pale blush hues pair well with neutrals, jewel tones, and brights. This Blushing Bow Blouse ($98) is a great buy. I like the small, structured bow and slightly puffed sleeve. It’s pretty and feminine, but not frilly. I would wear this blouse under a crewneck sweater with a pencil skirt. It would also look lovely […]
I mentioned last week that I need to cut back on the posts for a little while. My class load is rather extreme this semester, and a few extra hours per week will make a big difference. After a lot of thought, I have decided to cut the morning post. It takes a surprising amount […]
Dear Belle, Can you help me find a sequin dress that doesn’t make me look like a Las Vegas showgirl? My friend’s anniversary party is a Glitz and Glamour theme. Where do people get this stuff? Thanks, I know this isn’t usual for your blog. Caitlin Corner Office Alice + Olivia Sitara Sheath ($598) […]
By mid-winter, I am so sick of wearing blazers. I look in my closet each morning and think, “Yay, another workday, another blazer.” When this happens, I grab my drape leather jacket and wear it with my sheath dresses. It brings in a bit of rocker-chic without looking like I’m heading to a Sid Vicious […]
