Calling All Fashionistas!

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Liz Claiborne New York Outlets. All opinions are 100% mine.



I don't just love Autumn because of the weather, but it is also my favorite season for fashion! The styles are more sophisticated and richly textured. A few of my favorite trends are men-inspired, flirty ruffles, retro glam clothing. Also, there is nothing better than wearing a beautiful coat and / or a nice pair of boots in the cold, crisp weather. Plus, this is the time of year that many fashion designers unveil their new collections and the fashion world follows in their footsteps. Many fashionistas, young and old, don't miss out on their September Vogue to see what the fashion world has in store. However, a lot of us can't afford the beautiful pieces displayed within the pages of Vogue. More often than not, these pieces come with a hefty price tag that leaves us disappointed. Many of us want to look elegant and sophisticated as Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Natalie Wood, Jackie Kennedy, Sophia Loren, Grace Kelly, Rita Hayworth, and Michelle Obama. Thanks to the timeless fashions of Liz Claiborne, you can save 40 - 70% at Liz Claiborne New York Outlets - everything must go!

Global Girlfriend Review

Global Girlfriend was created by Stacey Edgar in 2003 to help women worldwide gain economic security while providing you unique products and a simple way to help women in need. Their fair-trade boutique offers a line of trend-setting, women-made, fair-trade products including stylish apparel, accessories and gifts with one purpose - helping women in need help themselves.

They believe passionately that economic opportunity for women holds the promise for real change in the world; because when women have an income, they reinvest in themselves and in their children's health, education and nutrition, building stronger families and communities over time. Many women try desperately to make a living selling their artisan-quality goods but find that they have little access to market opportunities.

Through fair-trade practices, Global Girlfriend brings the work of these disadvantaged groups directly to you. Global Girlfriend believes in forming long-term partnerships that provide women a fair living wage with equal employment opportunities, healthy and safe working conditions, technical assistance and development strategies to foster prosperity and reduce poverty.



The Good Karma Block Print Dress in Red ($50) is a romantic, playful, and flirty dress that encapsulates the beauty of a strong and confident woman that is comfortable in her own skin. Handmade in India, this Midwest inspired dress features elastic smocking at the v-neck that will flatter every bust size, while the empire-smocked waistline and bottom ruffle give a relaxed fit that makes you look and feel beautiful. The Good Karma Block Print Dress is available in three crowd-pleasing colors: Purple, Red, and Turquoise.

Each dress is hand-crafted by a fair trade women's cooperative that is democratically structured, providing benefits to women such as childcare, annual medical check-ups, overtime pay -- even retirement plans. Every link in the production chain is completely managed by the women, and many use their involvement in the co-op as a springboard to becoming socially and politically active in their larger community.

Created to help women worldwide gain economic security for themselves and their families by earning fair wages for their handiwork, Global Girlfriend sources women-made, fair-trade imported, eco-friendly products. By supporting long-term partnerships with the artisans, it fosters equal employment opportunities, healthy and safe working conditions, technical assistance, and development strategies to help reduce poverty, one community at a time. Become a "Global Girlfriend" and help build a brighter future for girlfriends around the globe!

OKA b. Footwear to Donate Thousands of Shoes to Breast Cancer Patients in October

OKA b., a leading U.S. manufacturer of eco-chic and recyclable footwear, today announced the launch of its newest initiative, dedicated to bringing comfort and a bit of pampering to thousands of breast cancer patients in the United States.

For every pair of shoes sold online during the month of October, also known as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Atlanta based company will donate one pair of its most popular sandal The Madison Slide ($25 - $40) to breast cancer patients currently going through treatment at cancer centers nationwide, up to 50,000 pairs in total.



“While other strategic partnerships focus on percentages of sales donated to non-profit organizations for research and development, OKA b. is choosing to furnish product as gifts directly to those who are suffering,” says OKA b. Founder and CEO, Bahman Irvani. “We believe this complements the long term impact of research dollars.” OKA b. sandals are known for their extreme comfort and distinctive design, enabling a cancer patient the opportunity to be pampered and relax while going through treatment. The feminine and flirty touches on the shoes are an added bonus, giving patients another reason to smile.

As with all of OKA b.’s footwear in the recently unveiled Winter Collection, the Madison Slide features the company’s signature reflexology inspired massage beads and ergonomic foot bed, is waterproof, antibacterial and seamlessly designed, made in the USA from one piece of the company’s proprietary recyclable Microplast™ material. Price points on all of OKA b.’s shoes are between $20 and $40.

Customers wishing to purchase shoes during the month of October to help reach the company’s goal of 50,000 donated pairs are asked to do so online at ShoesThatLoveYou.com using coupon code CountMeIn.

Autrepeau Review





Autrepeau means other skin, but it is not shapewear in the least. It is a line of undershirts, camisoles, and pant liners that women can wear everyday for a luxurious layer of comfort. It helps reduce dry cleaning costs and will help prolong the life of your clothes. Long sleeve products are also available to wear under itchy sweaters in the colder months.

25% off at Autrepeau with coupon code: FASHION10

I received the Lace Scoopneck Cap Sleeve in Black ($42), which is great to wear underneath suit jackets, blouses, and short sleeve sweaters. This undershirt is so comfortable that I forget that I'm wearing it at times. I love how it protects the skin from stiffness, itchiness, and clinginess from clothing. It is made with lightweight, stretchy, form-fitting signature fabric: 77% nylon, 23% spandex. Long in length, stays tucked in!

Let Them Eat Wear Cake Lingerie




I received a charmingly sweet set from their Strawberry Shortcake Collection. The set that I received includes the Strawberry Shortcake Bra ($60) and Strawberry Shortcake Brief ($28). The Strawberry Shortcake French Knicker ($28) is also part of this collection. The colors are flattering and feminine with the soft pink and white polka dots. The material is icing on the cake since it is ultra soft and comfortable, which makes it a must have for pregnant and nursing mothers. You can make the most of your maternal assets and celebrate your new found silhouette with this set. Their lingerie is great for those who aren't even pregnant or nursing!
