This summer has been all about the metallic lip, and with more brands incorporating the finish into their formulas - as well as adding deeper shades for fall (hello vampy maroon and plum shades!) - this beauty trend is looking to extend its time in the spotlight. I first took note of the metallic lip when Kylie Cosmetics put out a few shades back in early April and soon discovered other lines were doing the same. The shimmery finish was gorgeous...I loved the modern look and it was another way to fuel my rose gold obsession. But before diving head first into the metallic fad, I wanted to test the waters. I needed a product that had an amazing formula and a flattering shade that wouldn't break the bank. Look no further than the following products. These collections have a shade for everyone, whether your look is demure or bold, and each lip product costs less than $20! Read on to shop my finds and see which liquid lip I can't live without...

When incorporating a pop of color, I love pairing a single piece with a neutral or monochromatic background so it stands out, but isn't too overwhelming — I'm definitely a minimalist at heart. In this ensemble, Olivia Palermo does the same by incorporating bright yellow loafers with distressed skinny jeans, a white off-the-shoulder top, skinny black scarf, black belt, a classic watch and a versatile leather-trimmed canvas clutch. The accessories alone elevate the otherwise simple t-shirt and denim outfit, and our curated finds are on point. Get the look for less with these fab finds that start at just $9.99!

Thanks to a tip from an alert brand-name-bargain-hunting friend, I've learned that you can snag a pair of TOMS Desert Wedge Suede Booties for just $59.99 on sale at Costco! These shoes retail for $88.95 at Nordstrom (here) and have 236 five-star ratings! I know from reading other fashion blogs that these booties are super popular because they're cool, stylish, yet comfortable, too, and endlessly versatile. If you've been eying these, now's your chance to own a pair at a serious discount! The only catch: You have to be a Costco member. Pick them up in tan or black (or both!) for $59.99 HERE.

Looking for other winter boots on sale? I noticed Costco also carries these Chooka Herringbone Rainboots for $24.95 (I couldn't find any identical pairs but these Chooka rainboots are $64.95 at Nordstrom), and the UGG Australia Classic Short Boot for $99.99 (compare with these classic short UGGs, $159.95 at Nordstrom). Lots of really amazing options right now to choose from - but act quickly, I know that the last time Costco had a deal on Hunter Wellies, those boots sold out FAST!

I may be jumping the gun here in mid-August, but I'm ready to talk about what to buy at Payless for Fall - there's so much goodness! I got their back-to-school mailer and immediately headed to my store to pick up the 'Max' Bootie in Olive for $34.99 plus 20% off using the coupon from the mailer (sign up for the Payless mailing list to get your coupon). This boot will be a workhorse in my everyday wardrobe - it's cute, stylish, yet comfy enough for chasing after kids, running errands, you name it! It'll look good with dresses or jeans. I'm already contemplating going back for the brown. Runs TTS.

In her latest casual street style ensemble, Emma Roberts gives us the perfect summer to fall transitional outfit recipe. She pairs a camel crewneck sweater with white skinny jeans, then finishes the look with a cognac bag and silver oxfords. I feel like this is something one of my favorite fashion bloggers might wear...simple yet chic neutral basics and compliment-inducing accessories! And if you think metallic oxfords are hard to style, just check out previous looks by Maria Menounos, Olivia Palermo and Kendall Jenner for more outfit inspo - see how versatile they are?! I'm loving this pair from Sole Society - the cool cut-outs make this menswear-inspired piece easy to wear year round.
