Brightly colored coats are popular this season. Wear them with neutrals underneath for maximum impact. Lily Allen, Mandy Moore, Brittany Spears and Nicole Richie are all cozying up to color.

Although many will say that a coat is an investment piece, you do have some control about the amount you invest. I’ve found six coats for under $100. Delia’s has a fantastic military peacoat in bright yellow on sale for $69.50. If you look good in red, this coat from Victoria’s Secret has a very flattering silhouette and the price is reduced to $99! For $39.80, you can get a bright blue coat with a funnel collar and four rows of double-breasted buttons.

If none of those options strike your fancy, Alloy has a peacoat in pumpkin spice that hits low on the hip on sale for $81.90. Or try Fred Flare’s bright pink coat with an empire waist on sale for $54.99. One last option is the bright green coat with 3/4 sleeves and a portrait collar from Newport News reduced to $39.99.

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!

Try a loose shirt tucked in with Topshop’s skirt a la Maria Sharapova. I’d wear this purple t-shirt from Victoria’s Secret ($26 each or 2/$40). The side ties will make it easer to tuck in. I’d wear these bright yellow platform pumps from Pink Duchess on sale for $34.95. To tie the look together, you can add some colorful jewelry or a printed scarf like this one from Rumor for $32.

Jessica Stroup and Rachel Bilson have gone with cropped jackets. I like the one below to go with American Apparel’s burgundy skirt. It’s at Free People and at a huge discount ($49.95 from $148)! I’d wear shoes with some hardware. Try these studded flats on sale at Tilly’s for $16.99 or the heels from Fergie on sale for $54.97.

Lauren Conrad and Nicole Richie have chosen a form fitting white shirt with their tulip skirts. Tuck one into Forever 21’s plaid tulip skirt (Express $19.50). You could wear flats or heels with this. For flats, I like these cute red ones by Blowfish on sale at DSW for $39.95. Or these platforms from N.Y.L.A. sold at DSW for a sale price of $89.95 would be awesome with this outfit!

Leggings will continue to be popular into the fall season. However, you should stick to leggings that come to the ankle. Avoid leggings that stop mid-calf and especially those that cut you off at the knee. Leggings are a great way to make your shorter dresses wearable through fall as demonstrated by Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba and Jamie-Lynn Sigler. Because they are form fitting, they also look great with big sweaters and billow tops.

If you don’t have leggings yet, I’ve found a few worth trying. Express has a pair for $24.50 and they come in 10 different colors, including the neon pink shown below…an unexpectedly popular color for fall. For a touch of the ’80s, get American Apparel’s pair for $32 in sea blue (below), black, slate or deep pink. Liquid latex has been seen on Nicky Hilton, Miley Cyrus, the Olsen twins, Rihanna…and the list goes on. Try Liquid Leggings from Victoria’s Secret for a similar look at only $42.50.

My favorite look for leggings is a tunic button-down shirt. I found three options of button-downs that would great with leggings under $50. Blake Lively went with a white pintucked shirt. The one below is from Express for $49.50. Another option for the same price is a brown check tunic with a waist tie from Ann Taylor Loft. For only $19.99, Macy’s has a black and white plaid option that also ties at the waist.

Another great option is a big comfy sweater (as seen on Megan Fox and Victoria Beckham), which is going to be popular this fall. I love this dolman sweater from Arden B. for $48 show here in black, but also available in oatmeal and wine. Victoria’s Secret’s $58 turtleneck sweater has a unique buckle accent and comes in slate heather (below), black, urban blue heather and burgundy heather. I also found a shorter sleeved version in a great purple color from Urban Outfitters for $58.

Billowy tops are another great way to wear leggings. This look has been seen on celebrities, such as Nicole Richie, Lauren Conrad and Mena Suvari. If you don’t already have one, I found a few options for under . Forever21 has a cute top for only $27.80. For something a bit warmer, try a light knit the one below from Urban Outfitters shown in black and also available in red and gray. To make the last $48 option more fall-friendly, pair it with a long cardigan or a cropped leather jacket.

Nicole Richie launched her maternity line this summer, which further proves that you don’t have to lose your style merely because you’re pregnant. Although the clothes are not outrageously priced, not all of us have even that kind of budget for maternity clothes. That doesn’t mean you don’t have options! I’ve taken a few items from Nicole Richie’s “a pea in the pod” maternity line and found some low budget alternatives that’ll keep you cute through your pregnancy.

To make the most of your wardrobe, go for pieces that you can mix and match and use for multiple purposes. Items like maxi dresses, trousers and dressy tops can be used in a variety of ways for a variety of occasions.

For a cute top to go out in, a pea in the pod has an abundance including the dark blue one shown below for $78. Khols has a lot of adorable tops for fantastic prices, like this pleated top in berry (below) and in black on sale for $18. Even stores like Nordstrom & Gap, which tend to cost a bit more, have great options if you keep an eye on their sale section. The top below is also available in white and on sale for only $16.99 at Gap.

Trousers worn with a t-shirt can be a casual option. With a dressy top, they are perfect for work or going out. A pea in the pod has a pair in dark gray plaid for $68.
