Attainable vs. Aspirational Looks for Fall
As we come down from the frenzy over NYFW and what’s to come in Spring 2014, we shift our excitement to a season that’s just around the corner: Fall. This weekend, I took some time to reflect on the designers who had my top Spring 2014 collections at NYFW, and I began to get curious about what these designers have in store for Fall. Some of my favorite shows from NYFW included pieces that are actually attainable for the average gal, while others are more aspirational and just out of reach for an every-girl, like myself. Below are my findings of what’s ATTAINABLE vs. ASPIRATIONAL right now for Fall!
P.S. If you fall in love with one of the ASPIRATIONAL ensembles, I’ve got you covered! I’ll show you how to ATTAIN the look!

I love that faux leather sheath as well! Guess even faux leather is quite pricey but certainly more attainable than the 4-figure look from The Row. Maybe this little number will go on sale during the holiday season, or keep your eyes peeled for Nordstrom to have a store-wide sale. It would definitely be an investment piece that would get you through seasons to come! P.S. Thanks for the comments! XO
