The Look for Less: Flokati Pillows

Flokati pillows are soft, fluffy and chic - what's not to love? Well, maybe the price (these are $58 each at nordstrom.com, in white or grey) and the fact that they might be tough to keep clean (not sure just a hunch). But they're sooo pretty.



Get the look for less with this Target flokati fur pillow, available in white ($19.99) or gray ($13.98). I saw them in person the other day and thought they looked great:



Get inspired to decorate with your flokati pillows!



The Look for Less: Case-Mate 'Kayla' Crossbody Phone Wallet

Case-Mate's colorblock cell phone wristlet is $88 at Nordstrom.com. I actually received one of these in solid black without the chain strap from a PR company and I didn't think it was worth $88 so I never reviewed it. Not to sound critical, but I thought the magnet that holds your cell phone in place was super weak and I wouldn't trust it to hold my iPhone. Ended up giving it away.



Then I came across this colorblock cell phone wallet at The Limited and was instantly reminded of the Case-Mate. It's just $19.99 and got good reviews from customers. And if you don't like the colorblock, there are 8 other fab colors to choose from! Click either image for more info.



The Look for Less: Madewell Polka Dot Blazer

Madewell's polka dot blazer is serious enough for a casual office while still playful enough to make a cheeky fashion statement. ($96.60, down from $138 at shopbop.com)



Get the look for less with Xhilaration's polka dot blazer instead, which is $24.99 at target.com. Wear it with a simple solid top and colored denim (or even printed pants if you dare).
