Today’s look is inspired by the effortless pastels I’m
seeing for Spring 2013. I picked up this flowy top at T.J.Maxx over the weekend
and decided it was unnecessary to wait several months to put it on. An H&M
tank is layered underneath, and a leather jacket along with a scarf, keeps me
warm when I’m outside. The denim-esque leggings are actually from Duane Reade
and were an emergency purchase, caused by a fashion malfunction, on the way to
a segment taping. The entire look,
including the L.A.M.B. booties, which are also a T.J.Maxx score, is under $100.

Moral of the story? There
is no economic reason that a woman should not look good when she steps out
of the house. Whether you’re going to the office, grocery store or picking up
your kids from school, you should always put
your best you forward. Ladies, we all know that looking good makes us feel good. It also helps us fight thru
insecurities, personal hardship and professional setbacks. So, next time you
want to shlep outside in old sweatpants, think about how simple it would be to
just put on some form-fitting jeans or leggings? Oh, and don’t forget a little rouge!
