Wornontv.net is simply a site that tries to find the styles shown on popular and current tv shows. Everything from Hart of Dixie to Revenge to Nashville. It’s not created by the TV networks so someone is culling through tons of photos for this and it’s nowhere near comprehensive (think of the number of characters AND clothing changes you see in each show!) but it does have some exact and near match recommendations for TONS of outfits. Check it out here:
On a recent shopping trip to Kohl’s I found a super cute blue a black stripe sweater. I had brought a bright orange tank into the dressing room and somehow the two complemented each other. Then I found a bright orange scarf that worked to bring it all together. Cute, a bit preppy and a bit unusual all at the same time! Sold.
I have my doubts about this sweater holding up well over time because of the loose knit but we’ll see.
Pantone, the leading authority on color trends for both print and style, has revealed the color of the year for 2014. Radiant Orchid is “a captivating harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones.” I’ve collaged some images above from pinterest in this sort of shade range.

Outfit of the day – turquoise, leopard and corduroy. Actually the more I think about it the color sweater color is dead on cyan instead of turquoise. Ok so most of this outfit came from Kohl’s. I’m finding Kohl’s to be a good source of decent quality basics at a good price. I gave a sneak peak of some of these items in this post but that didn’t include the sweater. That $10 Kohl’s cash coupon I got from my online order I used to go back and buy this sweater. Actually I ended up with two of these cable knit sweaters because I liked them so much; the “bold blue” and the “brown heather”.
Sweater: Sonoma Life + Style Cable-Knit sweater in “Bold Blue” | Pants: Sonoma Life + Style Modern Fit Straight Leg Corduroy pants in camel | Scarf: Apt. 9 Leopard Scarf | Hat: Crushable straw fedora bought early last summer at Kohl’s | Earrings: bought last year at JC Penny | Shoes: Ugg Antora in black patent (similar Ugg Antora II in black patent)
Ok one quick note on the Uggs Antora ballet flats: I LOVE these but I have last year’s Antora not the Antora II and there is a difference. What I liked about last year’s style is that they are lined with shearling which helps keep my feet warm in winter. Not as warm as boots but better than most ballet flats. There’s no shearling on the footbed but there is shearling along the sides. If you see patent leather on the outside, there’s shearling under that. This year’s Antora II shoe however appears to only have a little tuft of shearling in the heel and that’s it.
The Payless Claire Scrunch Flat dexflex flat is my go-to black ballet in the fall and this Ugg Antora is my go-to black ballet flat in the winter because of that added warmth. I really hate wearing socks but my feet get cold easily. I actually own three pairs of Uggs and they are what go into heavy rotation in the winter and I should probably do a separate post about those. (Don’t worry, none of them are the typical suede Uggs that everyone knows and loves to hate!)

I had a $10 off coupon and I was also able to apply a 15% off coupon AND because I spent over $50 I got free shipping. My total was $70.21 AND I now have another $10 off coupon because I spent more than $50 that I can use between a certain date range. Sometimes I do not understand how Kohl’s makes any money…
Whether it’s white skinny jeans, dress slacks, wide leg denim or palazzo pants, there are a variety of ways you can make white pants part of your fall & winter wardrobe.

What I’m wearing in all three outfits above: white palazzo jeans that I bought yesterday at the Talbots Outlet, long sleeve magenta surplice tshirt from Walmart, statement necklace from Maurices, gold and white earrings from JC Penny. (Ok this is also a cheap outfit) I actually wore the one on the far right today because it was mid 60’s outside here.
