'Tis the Season to Wear White

White shoes in the winter? Of course! When people think of "winter white," they often think of white clothes, but not necessarily white accessories. White has been added to the color palette for winter garments in the past few years, and now that tons of people have accepted this trend, whatever apprehension you've had about it can be eliminated.

"No white after Labor Day" has become a statement of the past, so if you haven't thought of adding white to your wardrobe, feel free to start and wear it with pride. These 5-inch white leather heels by TopShop are a perfect example of why you should wear winter white. They're classy and sexy, plus they're only $124, so buy a pair for each of your trendy friends this holiday. After all, 'tis the season to wear white — winter white, that is.

The brother and sister brands provide a wide range of trendy and fashion-forward apparel, accessories, and little knick-knacks like make-up, skin care products, and fragrances. Basically, your one-stop-shop for all the hip and trendy fashion must-haves.

Pull up your socks!

Have you jumped on this new trend? Knee high socks, so cute and so girly. They look great with heels and are said to be the fashion trend that is going to carry on into fall.

There are many ways to wear these socks, pair them with heels or boots, possibly even flats, loafers/oxfords are a great option. Layering the socks over tights can be a great look too, though it might be wise to hold out on the layering till fall.

Oh, and don't forget about the thigh-high socks, for the fashion girls who want to sex it up. TOPSHOP offers a good range of knee high socks, most of them are about $12!  Bargain!

Move Over H&M, Topshop takes NYC

While I am always one for affordable fashion, sometimes you get what your pay for (if you've ever bought at $4 shirt from Forever21, you know what I mean). But this week, British fashion chain Topshop opened its doors on this side of the pond, and the response couldn't have been more welcome. Famous for their trendy and higher quality designs, Topshop offers lines from high-end designers at low-budget prices.

Of course, you probably heard of the famed fashion outlet and if you live outside of New York, the news may seem irrelevant to your shopping agenda. But, for a limited time only, you can actually purchase clothing from the store's website and get free shipping (yes, free, no minimum purchase required).

So, unless you're on your way to Barney's now, this is good news. When else could you purchase a Preen studded skirt or a Jonathan Saunders one shoulder dress? Even if you can't get to Broadway and Broome, then definitely check out them out online. While some store openings are all hype, this is actually hype you can believe in.

Moss Signs New Topshop Deal

For some of you who don't know Topshop, it's a London retailer similar to H&M. Kate Moss has a collection there and word on the streets is, it's there to stay. 

Topshop said that they have in fact locked a deal with the supermodel to continue with her collection. Moss will keep designing her Kate Moss for Topshop Collection, she has thus far produced 8 collections for the London retailer since she joined forces with Topshop in 2006. 

Definitely looking forward to seeing her next line for Topshop. Just wish they'd bring Topshop over here to America. It's bound to happen, right? I mean H&M is here...
