Spot the Real: Emilio Pucci Fringe Vest


Can you guess which fringe vest costs more?

Fringe was all over the spring 2015 runways, including Emilio Pucci where it took on an effortless, bohemian vibe. You can add fringe to your own wardrobe in layers with a vest - Pucci's will set you back $5,600 while the look for less is just $50 (and genuine suede!) Can you guess which vest costs more?

P.S. I love this long black fringe vest ($45) - it's a bit more rock 'n' roll than boho - or this fringed vest ($20) that's more feminine and subtle.

8 Stylish Picks to Set a Spring Table (On A Budget!)


Set a spring table

The season of new beginnings is just around the corner, which means cheery get togethers, brunches, and outdoor dining. If there is ever a time to bring out the brights and patterns, it is now. It especially works when setting the table for casual Sunday brunch. Don’t shy away from mixing bright colors or bold patterns - the more the merrier! It creates a pleasant setting for an afternoon, plus it eliminates the need of stressing over fine china or giving up and opting for paper goods. Invest in key pieces that you can reuse again such as the blush plates and gold flatware, but remember you don’t have to spend a lot to make a stylish statement!
