Missing Girls

Did you know nearly half a million people were reported missing in America last year? Nearly half were girls under 21. That's a crazy statistic. Let's make a pact to try and find the lost girls (see title link).

Luxe Perfume

Want to feel like a celebrity but don't have the same cash inflow to make it happen? Hate knockoffs and actually want to own something made by a high-fashion designer? Check out your fragrance section at a local Sephora. I love the fragrance created by Fendi. Their women's fragrance, called Fan di Fendi Eau de Parfum costs anywhere from $56-$92 depending on size (see title link) and smells like the ultimate fantasy. It's got hints of leather, warm jasmine, and general insistence, elegance, and allure. I am addicted already, and it's completely irresistible. Almost haunting, really.
Made for an electric night out, with notes of rose, tangerine, pink peppercorn, and patchouli.

Braided Belts

Braided belts are all the rage right now. I choose soft hues, like cognac, to match my brown boots in the fall. Combined with bright prints, like birds, for example, these belts look super-sophisticated. Best of all, you can buy them for relatively no money. Make Me Chic has braided belts that cost just $8 (see title link)!

Classic Chucks

Thanksgiving break is all about the autumn, the holiday season, and chillin' with your friends. I love being casual and comfy when I'm having a fun dinner with old pals, and Chuck Taylor All Stars from Converse are the perfect example. The chocolate shade is different but still matches with everything, goes with the autumn palette, and is a great women's shoe. Costs $50 and is such a classic canvas sneaker (see title link), especially in that tans & browns realm!

Such delicate earrings (see title link)! They are from Iosselliani, an Italian jewelry designer, and are silver with a bronze stone. After the Euro conversion, they cost $110.37.Look great with blue smoky eyes!

Fuschia Booties

Probably not the classiest shoes to wear for Thanksgiving dinner, but hey, I looked great! These heels from Make Me Chic cost just $27 and are so bold and hot! They're called the Glaze Camilla1 Velvet Ankle Boots in Fuchsia. SO CUTE (see title link).

Adidas goes wild

Check out these sneakers from Jeremy Scott x Adidas Originals (see title link)! I saw Heather Morris of Glee wearing them in a magazine and thought they were adorable. The fuzzy pandas combined with the black-and-white classic Adidas Originals by Originals is a great addition to the world of women's shoes.

A Stylebook for the Season

As break looms, I need a new book for light reading and a guide to my holiday style. Luckily, I can find both with Seventeen Ultimate Guide to Style, a new book about finding your perfect look, depending on your personal style! Buy it at Barnes & Noble, Amazon.com, or at Target (see title link)!

Crossed, Part of the new Matched trilogy

If you like reading about The Hunger Games, try out a new trilogy this Thanksgiving. Read The Matched Trilogy by Ally Condie, especially her second book, Crossed. Husbands are assigned, no one is free, and there are love triangles involved. What could be better (see title link)?

Learn from the Learned


Want to find out more about college life before entering it? Try Seventeen magazine's Freshman 15 (see title link), where girls talk about their first-year experiences through video blogs and social media interactions. Jaymie, from the College of Charleston, for example, just decided to study abroad during her junior year instead of sophomore year!
