What I Wore | Sassy City Chicks Fashion Bash

Sequin Blazer- OFF 5th, Romper- For Love 21, Socks- Forever 21, Bag- ZARA

Shoes- Vince Camuto

If you weren't at the Sassy City Chicks inaugural Miami Fashion Bash last week you missed out on great deals from local designers and boutiques. Not to mention the fabulous (and complimentary!) spa and beauty treatments the ladies were lining up for all night long! With the weather finally starting to cool down in the Magic City, I took the opportunity to break out my new sequin blazer and lace knee high socks. Playing with the boudoir chic look, I wore underwear as outerwear! Yes, my romper is actually a nighty. Who said undies had to stay under?

Budget Babe | Fall Trends for less at Marshalls

When you think of discount retailers like Marshalls or T.J. Maxx what comes to mind? If you're thinking cheap, past season, or even damaged clothing you're not unlike most shoppers out there. What you don't know is that stores like Marshalls and T.J. Maxx actually carry some of the trendiest looks on the market, at 60% less than department and specialty stores. Plus they get new merchandise in every week, unlike department stores like Macy's and Nordstrom which only receive new shipments seasonally.

Although I don't frequent off-price retailers as often as I should, I don't write them off my list of shopping destinations. In fact, when you're on a tight budget, these are the best places to shop if you want to update your wardrobe for a fraction of what you would spend at the mall.

Still don't think a visit is worth your time? I went trend spotting at the new Marshalls located in Coral Gables' Miracle Market Place last week and found some of this season's must-have looks lining the racks.


Military

Military Style Skinny Cargo Pants - $10, Marshalls

There's no doubt that a pair of military style, slim cargo pants are a must for your fall wardrobe. Army green is the new black this season. Get the look at Marshalls for only $10- a steal!


Leopard & Lace 

Leopard print dress - $19, Marshalls

A classic print is all the rage this season. This little black and white dress features 2 hot fall trends in 1- leopard print and lace! Spice up your date night dress collection with this sassy look for under $20 at Marshalls.


Faux Fur 

Faux Fur Vest - $29.99, Marshalls

Rachel Zoe made it her uniform and now fur vests are everywhere! This look can be tricky to pull off in South Florida but you can still rock it if done right. Try it with skinny jeans, a white tank, platform booties and layered bangles for a boho chic look. Even if faux-fur becomes a faux-pas tomorrow, at only $29 your pocket won't feel the burn.


Designer Deals 

MICHAEL Michael Kors Tank - $20, Marshalls

Another great reason to love off-price retailers? Deep discounts on the designer labels you love. I came across this MICHAEL Michael Kors Shredded Tank that was marked down from $59 to $20. That's over 50% off!

Thanks to the lovely people from TJX (Parent company of Marshalls/T.J. Maxx) for the gift card they sent me. I managed to get some great pieces to mix into my fall wardrobe, and have officially regained my status as a frugal fashionista.
