On the Fence... Denim Leggings


Beyonce, Whitney Port and other celebs are rocking denim as the latest trend in leggings. Part denim, part legging these "stretchy pants" (said with a Nacho Libre twist), just may be the perfect answer to modestly modern layering problems. If you are always tossing skinny jeans under too short dresses or tunic tops, get rid of the bumps and thickness caused by pockets by throwing on a pair of these. Think how great they'll slide under fall boots. I think I'm off the fence and giving denim leggings the go ahead.

Look for Less - Piped Blazer



Topping the list of must haves for fall is the blazer. Jcrew has this fabulous option in navy blue with white piping that just screams back to school, but comes in a little pricey at $250. To save some cash for other fall purchases, try this version from Aeropostale, now on sale for $40.

Celebrity Inspiration - Elle Macpherson


We can make a button down, faded jeans, a belt, flip-flops and aviators look just as great as Elle Macpherson right? right?? This is a fabulous, classic modest look that can easily be recreated from what is already in your closet.

Mad for Modcloth

This Monday there's a lot to appreciate over at Modcloth. This site does its best to stock only a few sizes in each item so there's little chance of running into someone wearing the same thing. But that does mean that things sell out fast, so if you like it you'd better pick it up quick! Modcloth also stocks interesting one-of-a-kind vintage pieces at affordable prices. Here are our current Modcloth faves.
