Fashion Night Out Tomorrow!

Just a reminder that tomorrow is Fashion's Night Out! From New York to Brazil to Boston, this years event is sure to be an extravaganza.

Shopista Look of the Week: Lace

As summer comes to an end, fall fashion is kicking into high gear! And this fall lace is a definite trend from dresses to tops, trims and dresses. There are a ton of great options at a variety of price points, just be sure the quality doesn't look cheap.

I really love this Joie 'Openwork Lace Blouse' ($198.00) which is a mix of the utterly feminine with this spring's more utilitarian styles. Pair it with jeans under a leather or cargo jacket. Mini's are also on trend this fall, and this 'Lace Mini Skirt' by Express ($49.90) is perfect, and can be mixed an matched for so many different styles.

For more of a sexy but subtle lace shoe, House of Harlow 1960 makes the perfect 'Lace Pump' ($198.00 - you can preorder now!). And for a fun lace accessory, Club Monaco currently has these great silver-tone lace bangle bracelets for sale for $8 (get one while they last)!

For a more causal option, Petterson J. Kincaid makes a great 'Greenwich Lace Tankdress' ($138.00) that looks great belted and paired with a standout pair of pumps. Or for a dressier affair, Milly's 'Lace Dot Dress' with lace overlay is so glamorous.

And remember lace tends to be ultra feminine so be sure to contrast it with more neutral, utilitarian or even edgy items.

Sale Alert: Elly Clay

Elly Clay makes one of my favorite go-to handbags - the Botas Hobo.... and right now they are having a huge end-of-summer sale online with items reduced $100 or more and are offering an extra 15% off sale items! Definitely worth checking out. I think the 'Farah Rocker Fringe' is totally cool and unique, and it's now only $120.00! (down from $230)

New at Jodi Arnold

I have to say, I am always a sucker for subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) embellishments. I found these fabulous two pieces from one of my favorite designers Jodi Arnold, that are sure to add a little sometime to your fall wardrobe. Not to be worn together, is the 'Kimberly Embellished Cuff' ($198.00), and the 'Kimberly Embellished Sweater' ($395.00).

The embroidery is inspired by the paintings of the Western Australian Aboriginal people of the Kimberly region, and consists of oxidized metal sequins, brass studs $ semi-precious stones.

Earrings that make a statement!

I wrote about Seville Michelle Anastos' unique epaulet collection a couple months ago... well now she has an amazing bamboo earring collection wrapped in leather, and again it is like nothing else out there! So far singers Ciara and Beyonce have all been spotted wearing them - and they no doubt make such a statement. Check out my two favorites below:

Shopista Look of the Week: Chunky Knits

This fall is all about chunky knits. Not only where they all over the runways, but they are now starting to pop up in store displays all over New York. It is always depressing knowing summer is coming to an end, but as I think we all can agree, nothing compares to fall fashion. Check out some great options, and they're all under $200!!

525 AMERICA's cotton and acrylic cardigan ($160), SMITTEN's viscose, cotton and nylon knit vest ($165.00)

Or if you're looking to splurge, Helmut Lang 'Hand-Knit Cowl Seater ($595.00), Diane von Furstenberg 'Moss Sweater' ($375)

And the ultimate splurge is this beautiful and totally unique Julien MacDonald 'Chunky Wool Cardigan' ($2,870)

EM Clothing Collection Launches

Emerson Fry (of EmersonMade) recently launched her fabulous debut clothing line, EM Collection, and I seriously can't speak higher of it. The New Hampshire-based designer has created some amazing vintage inspired staples, that perfectly transition wardrobes from summer to fall.

Some of her pieces include high-waisted denim jeans, a silk dot blouse with a feminine necktie ribbon, and a 1960's inspired tweed jacket to name a few. Prices range from $78-$400.

Show Off Your Bra

I have so many low cut shirts and tanks, whether it be a neckline or side cut - well now, the brand Top Secret has designed a collection of bra's that are totally meant to be exposed. They are designed with pretty embellishments like sequins, lace, patterns, and shimmer and are a perfect classy way to pull off the sexy 'peek-a-boo' trend. Prices range from around $38-$60.

Elizabeth and James Pop-Up Shop?!

One of my favorite brands Elizabeth and James is creating its first ever pop-up shop for Fashion's Night Out - and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen will be there! It will be located in an amazing West Village location - 632 Hudson St. (between Horatio and Jane) - and is definitely worth checking out. I know I will be there.

Piperlime Pop-Up Store in NYC!

Piperlime is launching its first pop-up store in SoHo (93 Mercer St. at Spring) starting this September 9-October 3 to align with New York Fashion Week.

The pop-up store will include an edited assortment of the top fall styles, including brands like Marc by Marc Jacobs, Frye, Cynthia Vincent, AG Adriano and more. It will also include tips on how to wear the season's trends, and favorite picks from fashion editor and stylist Rachel Zoe.

Piperlime will celebrate the opening of their pop-up store by hosting an in-store event during Fashion's Night Out on September 10th where customers will get the chance to meet and get styling advice from Rachel Zoe and also take photos with the cast of Project Runway!

For the 'Football Fan' in us all!

For the social football fan like myself, Victoria's Secret PINK has joined forces with the NFL to create a new cute collection of co-branded merchandise. The collection includes tees, sweats, hodies, and tanks and features the names and logos of practically every team...but for my New Yorkers, here are a couple great options!

3/4 Sleeve Football Tee ($39.50), New York Giants Bling Scoopneck ($36.50)

And I guess if you want to surprise your boyfriend, they even have team 'Hipster Panties' (3/$24.99)... And just in case you didn't know, the season kicks off September 9th! :)
