This dress is cute, simple and almost 50% off! Buy it at Max Studio for $88…shown in black below, but is also available in Heather Loden and Heather Charcoal. The empire waist will make it flattering on anyone and the knit is perfect for the colder weather! I would pair it with a belt like this embroidered one from Lucky Brand for $49. Wear these pieces with the scrunch boots from Wet Seal for $32.50.

Rachel Roy creates high priced pieces but also has a lot of affordable items as well! She makes beautiful clothes and accessories. Many of them have unique touches that give the piece a bit of an edge, like using safety pins in her jewelry design and attaching necklaces to her tees.
RACHEL Rachel Roy for Macy’s is fantastic! I’ve chosen three dresses for under $110. The best deal is a brushstroke print dress on sale for $59.40. My favorite (also the most expensive at $109) is the black mini. The stud details and ruched hem are fantastic. The plum sweater dress is perfect for the season and costs $99.

Celebrities have been wearing tulip skirts for a while now and they will continue to be popular through fall. They have been seen most recently on Lo Bosworth, Diane Kruger and Isla Fisher. This style is very flattering for those with wide hips or a larger mid-section. The best tops to wear with this style are form fitting and tucked in or cropped. It is best to wear these with heels or flats depending on how casual the skirt is. To make them cold-weather friendly, you can pair them with tights. I’ve found a few tulip skirt options for under $60.
Topshop sells a classy pelmet skirt with a tulip shape for $55. American Apparel sells a micro-fiber tulip skirt in 8 different colors, including the burgundy shown below. Or go bold with Scottish plaid sold at Forever 21 for only $14.80!
