As you all know Oxfords are definitely the “IT” piece for the fall. Usually we see the traditional oxford colors like brown, black, grey, and black & white. Well Japanes designer Dithzzappear have greated these handmade oxfords.  The Mondrian style is from dutch painter Pieter Mondrian and has been used by Nike and YSL.

I think the right fashionista can definitely pull these off! This is the perfect blend between art and fashion! These shoes are made in limited quantity! There are only 38 pairs left and they run for $168. Click here to purchase.

I recently purchased a few lip glosses and jumbo eye pencils from AVON. I have been buy a lot of lip gloss lately because I haven’t found the color or brand that I am completely in love with as of yet. My best friend, Erica who is an AVON sales rep, had this cool lip gloss from AVON and I ordered it hoping I have finally cured my lip gloss woes. I also love trying different eye shadows and pencils. I purchased 3 lip glosses and 3 jumbo big color eye pencils.

(Avon Big Color Eye Pencils and Avon Glazewear Lip Gloss)

Big Color Eye Pencil in Eggplant, Vanilla, and Night Glisten. The pencils go on very smoothly and the color is intense. These colors are great to create a smokey eye.

Glazewear Intense Brown Sugar, Glazewear Sparkle Apple Cinnamon, Glazewear Shine Tickled Pink

I like the lip gloss, not totally in love with it, but if mixed with the right lipstick I think I will get the looks I want. They currently have a sale where you can purchase 3 big color eye pencils and 3 glazewear colors for $8.99. They each go for $6 a piece so that is a pretty good deal.

If you do not have an AVON sales rep you can always order online.

Statement necklaces have been on everyone’s must have’s list for quite a few seasons now. The issue for most people when it comes to statement pieces is; they are way too expensive. When it comes to costume jewelry or fashion accessores, most women go to stores like Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, or H &M. You risk the chance of having on the same “IT” piece as the girl sitting across from you on the train.

While we do not want to spend hundreds of $$$ on statement necklaces, we don’t want to spend $2 either with a chance of our prized piece falling apart. I have found some great pieces that are great quality and won’t break the bank!
