By: Symone Simon

Every where you turn your favorite celebrity,socialite, and fashionista are wearing the sandal of the summer which are Gucci's Ursula sandal. The strappy sandal is perfect for any outfit. With the unlimited amount of colors and textures this shoe comes it makes it easy to fall in love with.

The classic design of the shoes transcends into any trend and will be around for years to come. This pretty shoe also comes with a pretty price tag. Retailing at $850 is not very flexible for most wallets. Now we all love looking at our favorite celebrity wearing these but the truth is we all don't have "celebrity money". Below I have found great dupes for all my frugal fashionistas on a budget.

Going Green

By: Symone Simon

Winning the title of Pantone's Color of The Year Award with it’s mixture of youth, sleekness and daring elements emerald surly lives up to it's title. This color is a must have and will be a staple in any women's closet this Fall 2013. The term "going green" takes on a whole new meaning. This rich color is flattering to all body types. Wearing head to toe emerald green may be a bit of overkill for some but try breaking it up with easy color combinations such as spa blue, pink and orange

You can ease you way into the emerald trend try using accessories. A simple black dress with emerald statement earrings will take your little black dress to the next level. This feminine and feisty color will definitely be a great way to start off the fall season. This shade of green has been making its appearance all over Fashion Week showcases all over the world. Are you ready to go green? #ArtOfAWoman

Bangles, Layer Them On!

Bangles upon bangles have been on the arms of numerous women this summer. A big trend that I have seen are the unique Alex and Ani bangles. What is nice about those bangles are that they each have it's own meaning. This summer, I have also seen many chunky bangles on women. Some wear one, as others pile them on. It really depends on the wearer's mood and personality for that day. I feel like bangles change an outfit and make you unique and a little bit edgy. Check out some cute bangles I found below! Plus you can see me with my favorite bangles too!

Stunning Stilettos!--Nails that is...

Recently I have gotten the "Stiletto Nail" look done at the salon. I know I maybe a little late on the bandwagon but at first I was hesitant to get the trend done. After getting my "mini claws" I realized that I am absolutely in love with this funky nail trend. It adds a little edge and spice to my every day look. What I personally like about this nail trend is the fact that you can do so much with this nail shape! The point of this style nail is to be creative and put the fashion trends that you follow from the magazine's into your nail art! Check out some cool pictures from Pinterest of some stiletto nails. Post your pictures of your own stiletto nails in the comment boxes below. Also you can check out Instagram and hashtag #stilettonails for inspiration before you head to the nail salon.
