POSHEstyle: NYFW - The Luana Satchel + Faux Fur Stole

We've heard it over and over - accessories can make an outfit. This truly is a golden fashion rule....but what's more important is choosing the right accessories that can bring your look from sweet to superstar - just like that!

A budget-friendly outfit can look like a million bucks when paired with carefully selected accents. I'm a very conscious shopper when it comes to clothing - the majority of my wardrobe are bought at fast fashion or mid-priced stores - and my designer pieces are generally a steal at sample sales or major discounted finds. But, accessories I will spend a little more on...because they are the most versatile part of a look, and can stand the test of time - or at least long enough to be worth the splurge.

The classic yet modern look of this Luana Italy leather satchel instantly caught my attention. Its elegant style screams old-hollywood glam, and the edgy hardware detail balances the right touch of contemporary. The best part - the price is accessible and won't break the bank. Talk about affordable luxury at its finest!

A fab fur stole (faux preferably) has been a major trend for fall/winter. I bought this from an independent designer around November, and trust, it was no easy feat waiting out the debut until NYFW. I adore the contrasting sides of stripes and hot pink, the touch is simply divine, and overall, it is just a stunning, eye-catching piece. Here I showed three (3) way I like to wear it - double draped, over-the shoulder, and as a bag accent ;)

Ok, so let's get back to basics of this look. Simplicity can be so stunning, and this American Apparel black turtle-neck, and Zara high-waisted pencil skirt form the perfect team in achieving sophisticated ease.

To keep the vintage-glam homage of this look, the final touches included my Christian Louboutin pigalle pumps, classic Chanel oversized sunglasses, and a timeless Hermes watch.

POSHEstyle: The White Tee

Sometimes the simplicity of a white tee is all you need to take an outfit from bland to ultra stylish. It can be paired with everything - jeans, skirts, slacks, shorts - and my ultimate favorite, dresses - for a tres chic ensemble.

However, keep in mind not all white tees are the same, and different fits work for different silhouettes and styles. Choosing the right tee isn't as simple as it sounds - I'll be sure to do a post on that soon ;)

With a wardrobe that is mostly filled with blacks, white, neutrals - it's refreshing when I wear a little color. I found this high-waisted skirt at H&M with the prettiest floral print. It's a great length without being too exposed, and the high-waist elongates the legs and clinches at the smallest part of the waist for a very flattering fit.

Pairing a printed skirt with a crisp white t-shirt keeps the skirt the focal point, and the look effortlessly chic. This American Apparel v-neck fitted tee hugs the figure for a seamless silhouette that is feminine and flirty. A more dressy alternative would be a silk top in white or any color from the skirt's palette. A sweet, soft blush color would be my next choice.

I hate to face it, but Fall is not too far away and I am already in planning mode. I am very big on shopping smart and investing in pieces that are transitional throughout seasons. Taking this look from summer to fall is easy with a layered blazer. This coral piece from H&M is a sweet addition.

I recently launched the POSHEshop (be sure to check it out) where I will be bringing capsule collections of things I wear, exclusive designers, original pieces and a host of goodies including this mint LAPOSHE clutch in a variety of colors. I had this one personally monogrammed with my zodiac sign "Gemini" and I absolutely LOVE it!

Blocked heels have been a big trend this season and these nude beauties from Kensie have been a life-saver for me. I have worn then repetitively with their versatility and comfort.

The final details included; a Bulova watch, American Eagle aviators, stacked mixed metallic rings, and a mint beaded necklace. Accessories are the special touches that brings an outfit to life - whether it be minimalist or art-deco, over-the-top glam - and these mint colors play so well with the floral skirt and on the white shirt for a cohesive and dynamic look.

POSHEstyle: Sequins to the Office

Sequins to work? Sure you can!

I love to experiment when it comes to corporate style by wearing pieces that aren't generally associated as office appropriate. Wearing sequins to the office is one such situation. Many fear wearing sparkles during the day or believe it's too much for work, but this shimmery fabric - if done right - can really make an outfit.

The main trick is to rock sequins in a casual-glam way that looks effortlessly chic. Mix your sequins with something more casual or classic, to offset and balance the glitz. Another tip - especially if trying this look for the first time - stick to the darker hues of a color, such as, navy blue, black, maroon or a deep purple. The darker the color the more subtle the sequins.

The pencil length of this sequins skirt naturally gives it a sophisticated flair and is a great choice for an office look. Though I originally purchased this Forever21 skirt for a dressy event, I decided to add a little pizzazz to my day and wear it to work instead. Why not?

I paired the skirt with a crisp white shirt from ASOS and a Forever21 navy blue turtleneck sweater-vest with the most interesting cut-out side details. For more corporate chicness, I added a white blazer from H&M with white Christian Louboutin pigalle pumps.

I kept the accessories at a minimum with my Hermes watch, Tiffany & Co bracelet, diamond rings and one of my favorite pieces, a delicate evil-eye necklace.

The final touch necessary to pull together your corporate style and truly make it work appropriate is your bag. I love Coach's assortments. The styles are clean, classic, contemporary and a great price point. It's a classic brand with a solid reputation and a great choice for work. This Coach double zip bag has multiple compartments, is a great size and the neutral blue color works with everything. I even took a break from the office, as you saw in the video above, to visit the store. I'm on the hunt for a new classic black work bag.
