Black Friday Deal of the Day

Black Friday has evolved into one of every fashionista's favorite holidays. It is the opportunity to find things on sale, that normally never drop below a certain price. Although many critics are saying that it is a dying tradition, due to the popularity and convenience of Cyber Monday, I think physically shopping in a brick and mortar store will always hold a certain magic during the holiday season.

The best deal I got this year?

This forever 21 cream wrap skirt: $4.99

This will be perfect to pair with holiday sweaters as well as blouses for business casual class!

The Perfect Outerwear

Well Bloomington-Normal residents, winter is officially on it's way! We are supposed to get snow by the end of this week. Make sure you're prepared with the perfect coat. Things to look for: deep purples and burgundy are awesome colors. Also look for straight, almost jagged edges that provide a modern touch.

Looks of the Week

The Tunic
When it comes to tops in the business casual world, the button-up is no longer the only option. Tunics are a more modern version of a classy top because they allow one to feel more comfortable and even potentially be more confident in the work place. Plus, they can be dressed down for the weekend!

The Power Purse
A girl on the go is not just keeping lip gloss and a wallet in her bag today. The typical COB collegette  is carrying a smartphone, tablet or laptop, lunch for the day and her Lilly Pulitzer planner on any given day. Bottom line- she needs a bag she can depend on. These are great because not only is the size perfect, but it has both a short and over-the-shoulder strap. Love it!

Winter Haul

With only a few options for retail in the Normal area, and winter quickly approaching, I have been looking for other avenues. The other day my friend, Emma, and I made a trip to Champaign, Il. There we found some of our favorites including Forever 21 and TJ Maxx. (Follow clockwise).

Here's the goods:

Cobalt Blue Cable-knit: the perfect color for this season; pair with black pants or neutral skirt

Charcoal Knee-length Cardigan: neatly ties together an entire outfit

Striped Cream-Burgandy Sweater Coat: the hood makes this perfect for when Normal weather pours; match with burgundy Lou & Grey top from The Loft

Lucky Brand Tan Booties: versatile and easy to pair; matches with other neutrals

Army-Green Frocket: This garment is perfect for layering; partner with blazer and/or statement necklace 

Ruby Leggings: these are a must-have for group project meetings and more casual settings
