Fabulous for Less Under $250: The Blazer

For most, Thanksgiving is an easy day of eating and relaxing with loved ones. So for this week's "fab for less," I wanted to create an outfit that was casually chic and also very family-friendly.

Highlighting this season's blazer, I chose to layer with an embellished tank to dress it up. The beaded neckline serves double duty as our necklace (big money saver). Again, I opted for skinnies to highlight curves, but straight-leg denim would work just as well. The idea is to go with a tucked-in bootie look for a streamlined effect. Doing without a coat, a striped scarf is the perfect cozy extra and provides a fab contrast to the solid jacket. Finish with chunky standout bracelets, an oversized crossbody bag, and sexy platform ruffled booties; another huge trend this season. All yours for under $250*!!!!

Note: Love this look for everyday dressy casual. Eternity scarves are another fave accessory; so easy to wear. Click on photo for larger view.
