Look of the Week.

J.Crew Ladys from the email send out today. See all of the "Looks We Love" here.

Cheap Thrills: Under $50.

Since I have been slacking at keeping you updating you on all the fun affordable finds I come across while browsing magazines, shopping online, or just happen to come across in a store in NYC in the past few weeks, I thought I would do a quick post of some of the amazing deals and steals I've come across that shouldnt go unspoken about. Because every girl needs a little cheap frill or pointless fashion fix every once in a while (Even if it's just a $5 tube of lipstick)--- It's healthy to reward yourself as long as your not going out and buying a new pair of shoes every week.

Hooray-!!- It's all under $50--- So go crazy!

Zara: City Bag with Flap - $49

ASOS: Swing Dress in Spot Mesh - $37

ASOS: Swing Dress with Long Sleeves - $44.00

Rimmel London: Lasting Lipstick by Kate Moss - $5 each
(I bought a tube a few weeks ago and now I am obsessed. It has a great creamy formula that actually has a long wear and there's not one color I wouldn't wear-- At only $5 each-- No brainer!)

C.Wonder: "C" Logo Print Umbrella - $24
(I just bought this last week when it rained for 3 days straight in the city. My Missoni umbrella from Gilt finally gave out on me and I am very happy with my purchase. It actually opens and closes really well and I love the wooden handle detail.)

West Elm: Stemless Glassware Set - Platinum Rimmed - $25 (Reg. $32)
(I love me some monograms and I can't of a better gift for close friend or newlyweds. I've actually already given these twice to friends as a wedding present.)

Target: The Curiosity Shoppe - America Cutting Board - $17.50 (Reg. $25)
