Remember The Fitting Room at Walmart? It's a site where Walmart brings together all the latest fashions in one convenient spot, and it's just been updated for Fall!

As I've mentioned previously, Walmart has been revamping their women's apparel lines and now carries some of this season's hottest trends that you would never think were from Walmart. Think ankle and knee high boots, maxi dresses, hi-lo tops and dresses, colored denim, bright blazers, funky jewelry, and much more.

The Fitting Room has also just launched its own Pinterest profile which makes tracking your favorite looks so much simpler. Follow and pin looks from the various boards on http://pinterest.com/thefittingroom/.

Off the Rack: Easing into Fall at Old Navy




Today was so humid, my glasses actually fogged up on a morning walk. Despite the strange weather, I know fall is just around the corner, so I stopped by Old Navy yesterday to scope out the early fall offerings. From lightweight cardigans in the latest animal prints and popular polka-dots, to stretch cords and skinny jeans in updated hues like mustard, plum and gray, I found myself wanting a lot of these wearable pieces. Highlights include a dark denim jacket, the aforementioned stretch corduroys, and front pocket blouses in sleeveless and long-sleeve (although I have a feeling these rayon pieces will look like a used tissue after they're washed). I still have trouble with the fit of the Rockstar jeggings, otherwise I would have scooped up a pair in dark purple; next time I'll look for the Sweetheart as recommended by a couple readers. I ended up splurging on a striped faux-Crew blouse ($29.94) and a polka-dot chambray shirt ($24.94) which had a nice weight to the fabric and will go with just about everything.

Target Fall 2012 Fashion Lookbook




Last spring I took you guys behind the scenes at the Fall 2012 Target press preview in New York City, and you loved the cropped tweed jacket, leopard pants, and tan trench with black piping (among other things). Now, we've got the full lookbook from Target, showcasing key trend pieces from in-house brands like Merona, Mossimo, Converse One Star, and Xhilaration. I've already picked up a few pieces, including a plaid blazer, leopard pencil skirt and leopard slipper loafers. Let these photos inspire you to go ladylike, colorblock in new ways, mix prints or try a new hue like yellow ochre or oxblood. If you have questions about specific pieces, let me know in the comments and I'll get you the deets.
