Want it NOW Fall Edition: Part 2

So I was tooting on Victoria's Secret this afternoon and found more inspiration for my want it now for Fall series... Ruffle front blouses and pencil skirts anyone!? Ruffles add instant femininity to any outfit. While pencil skirts are oh so sleek!


Check out this silk ruffle front top here! So fresh and flirty. Wear it with a pencil skirt or make it casual with a pair of skinny jeans..Love it!



I love this plaid ruffle front shirt paired with the Blue London high waist denim pencil skirt. Click here to check it out!


Not sure if pencil skirts are right for you? Remember the two F's:Fabric and Foundation

Fabric:

Ponte knit and Cotton interlock provide the most give. While wool blends and polyester/spandex primarily used in suiting will probably have a little less give.

Foundation:

A little light shaping and smoothing go a long way under form fitting clothes... I think all my readers should invest in a young panty girdle :-)


Top pick: The Power Panty by Spanx. I have several friends that swear by this. It is a far cry from Grandma's girdle in that it feels more like hosiery. It gives you a smooth look underneath your clothes with out showing through.



Penny pincher option: Assets Sensation Shaper. Only $20 at Target

Looks like our Want it NOW list is growing!Let's recap:

1 Layers at the neck
2 Motorcycle jacket
3 Colorful pumps
4 Skinny belts
5 Rich hair color
6 Ruffle front top
7 Pencil skirts
8 Shaping
