I think most people feel their teeth could be a little whiter and brighter every now and again. Personally I'm not a huge fan of applying strips or retainers with icky-tasting goo (although many work and I have used them). Instead, I prefer to keep my teeth the whitest they can be by brushing daily with a whitening toothpaste - combine Colgate's Max White toothpaste and the Colgate Motion Whitening toothbrush and you will keep your teeth stain-free and sparkly every day of the year!

I've been using these two products for the past two weeks and I think they are awesome. The toothbrush is gentle yet really effective at keeping teeth beautiful and white, and the Max White toothpaste tastes great and you get the added bonus of whitening every time you brush (no need to add yet another thing to the daily beauty routine).

Best On A Budget: Statement-Making Coats


If you live somewhere that experiences cold winters, chances are you're going to be spending a good portion of the next six to nine months wearing a coat. So why not make it a stunner, like Lily Allen's cream-colored coat with a luxe fur trim (vintage or faux, I hope)? If I've convinced you to go bold or go home, keep reading for a few fashionable coat options that are worth the price (a low cost-per-wear makes them so).

Best On A Budget: Supersleek Boots


Claudia Schiffer turned out for London Fashion Week wearing supersleek boots that instantly elevated her outfit from drab to fab (picture her wearing Converse sneaks instead and you'll see what I mean). If you're going to invest in one item this fall, make it a pair of similarly amazing yet classic boots. In need of suggestions? Keep reading for some of my top picks that won't break the bank.
