<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">It seems that as soon as February hits, all we see are red clothes, store decorations covered in hearts, and hundreds upon hundreds of cards dedicated to the holiday of love. Whether you&#8217;re single or taken, <strong>Valentine&#8217;s Day</strong> is around the corner, and it&#8217;s time to think about what you&#8217;re going to wear!</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">With this week&#8217;s edition of <strong>Outfits Under $100, </strong>I&#8217;ve created <strong>3 cute, budget-friendly outfits ready to wear for any valentine occasion</strong>. Whether you&#8217;re going out with your significant other or celebrating your singleness with a bunch of your girlfriends, with these great outfits, you&#8217;ll be ready to dress your best for February 14th.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit #1: Fancy Date! (Total $96.80)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69970"  title="Valentines Day Outfit 1: Red dress, red pumps, envelope clutch, bracelet"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/valentines-day-outfit-1.jpg"  alt="Valentines Day Outfit 1: Red dress, red pumps, envelope clutch, bracelet"  width="336"  height="419" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16956"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Dress</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16957"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16958"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Clutch</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16959"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bracelet</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Though I titled it &#8220;Fancy Date,&#8221; this outfit is not only for those who have a special someone to spend Valentine&#8217;s Day with, but also for those who just like dressing up!</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">I started with a Valentine&#8217;s classic &#8211; a LRD (little red dress). Red is a bold color, but the length of this dress and its sleeveless design allows it to remain classic. I decided to pair it with bold red shoes (come on, it <em>is </em>Valentine&#8217;s Day) for some extra <em>oomph</em>. Because the red color scheme is the main focus of this outfit, don&#8217;t go overboard with the accessories. A simple leather clutch and some pearl bracelets are the perfect choices to keep this outfit looking classy.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit #2: Casual Valentine (Total: $99.47)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69971"  title="Valentines Day outfit 2: Pink blazer, black skinnies, striped tank, gold ring, heels, statement necklace"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/valentines-day-outfit-2.jpg"  alt="Valentines Day outfit 2: Pink blazer, black skinnies, striped tank, gold ring, heels, statement necklace"  width="462"  height="456" /><br/>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This season, the <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/fashion-tips/class-to-night-out-bright-blazer/" >pink blazer</a> is taking the fashion scene by storm. And what better time to wear a pink blazer than on Valentine&#8217;s Day? Black pants and shoes balance out the popping pink blazer on top. As for the accessories, I always love gold rings and jewelry to class up a bold ensemble.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit #3: Single and Ready to Mingle! (Total: $99.08)</h3>

<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16966"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Blazer</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16967"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Tank</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16968"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bracelet</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16969"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shoe</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16970"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Skirt</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Who says that Valentine&#8217;s Day is just for couples? If you&#8217;re unattached, a great way to celebrate this holiday is to spend time with your girlfriends and go out declaring your singleness!</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">And what better way to declare that you&#8217;re on the prowl than by rocking a cheetah printed blazer? As with the pink blazer above, any printed blazer already draws lots of focus, so keep everything else simple. One of my favorite trends this year is the pleated skirt (<em>and</em> this skirt is high waisted!). The color, a rich maroon, is perfect for Valentine&#8217;s Day. To match the blazer, I&#8217;ve paired this outfit with some silver bracelets and grey heels with a hint of sparkle.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Questions? Comments?</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;"><strong>How do you plan on spending your Valentine&#8217;s Day? How are you planning on dressing up? What do you think of this week&#8217;s outfits?</strong> And like always, if you&#8217;ve found a great deal, please share!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This week&#8217;s <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/tag/fabulous-finds" >Fabulous Find</a> is definitely a Fall/Winter staple &#8211; a <strong>cute, simple sweater dress</strong>.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">I don&#8217;t know about you guys, but when I see a sweater dress in a store, I don&#8217;t necessarily run right to it &#8211; it&#8217;s hard for me to find the right style. In my experience, sweater dresses are usually too clingy and tight for my liking&#8230; and I am ALL about comfort. So, that being said, when I saw this one from Papaya for <strong>less than $10</strong> &#8211; I nearly died.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This sweater dress is the one, guys. Its fitted top and looser bottom are extremely flattering, and even though the one I chose to use is black, it comes in a bunch of different neutral colors. There are millions of ways to style a dress this simple and flattering, so take a look at<strong> these three outfit ideas</strong> and get some inspiration for yourself!</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">The Dress</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69867"  title="Papaya simple round neck sweater dress"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/papaya-sweater-dress.jpg"  alt="Papaya simple round neck sweater dress"  width="169"  height="400" /><br/>
Simple Round Neck Sweater Dress &#8211; $9.75 at <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16917"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Papaya</a></p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit Inspiration</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Below, I&#8217;ve created three different outfits incorporating this pretty sweater dress. Wear it to class, out shopping, or to a party &#8211; your choice!</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 1</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69864"  title="How to wear a Papaya sweater dress with thigh-high socks, a geometric cardigan, colorful necklace, and boots"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/papaya-dress-thigh-high-socks.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Papaya sweater dress with thigh-high socks, a geometric cardigan, colorful necklace, and boots"  width="499"  height="400" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16917"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Dress</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16918"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Socks</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16919"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Cardigan</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16920"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Boots</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16921"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Necklace</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This first look is my favorite of the three thanks to its neutral color palette with little pops of red and turquoise. Starting with the dress, I added a pair of thigh-high gray socks and an awesome pair of distressed cognac knee-high boots. This amazing geometric-printed waterfall cardigan adds tons of interest and texture, while this simple spiked turquoise necklace plays off the colors in the sweater. I would wear this to class on a warmer winter day, or out shopping with friends.</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 2</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69863"  title="How to wear a Papaya sweater dress with a leopard scarf, patterned tights, and oxfords"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/papaya-dress-leopard-scarf.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Papaya sweater dress with a leopard scarf, patterned tights, and oxfords"  width="505"  height="400" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16917"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Dress</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16922"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Tights</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16923"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Scarf</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16924"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16925"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Sunglasses</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This outfit, although with less layers and color than the first, still has tons of interesting details that keep it fresh and stylish. I paired the dress this time with some awesome wine-colored patterned tights and some lace-less gray oxfords. This neutral-toned leopard print scarf plays off the shoes, and simple black wayfarers keep the look extra laid back and street style-worthy.</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 3</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69865"  title="How to wear a Papaya sweater dress with hot pink shoes and statement accessories for a night out"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/papaya-dress-pink-accessories.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Papaya sweater dress with hot pink shoes and statement accessories for a night out"  width="493"  height="400" /><br/>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">For a dressier night out, I decided to add two super-bright splashes of color to give the dress a fun vibe. I chose this pretty beige cardigan with oversized ruffle detailing in the front and a super-chic snakeskin, black, gray, and nude clutch to work with the colors in the dress and sweater. Then, to really make the outfit pop, I added these amazing hot pink lace up booties, and an identical lipstick to match! I&#8217;d keep the rest of the makeup super simple &#8211; simple black winged liner and mascara would be HOT!</p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Even if you&#8217;ve never seen a single football game, its pretty safe to say that the<strong> Super Bowl</strong> is one of the most anticipated events of the year. It&#8217;s an American tradition to watch the Sunday night game every year, and Super Bowl parties are a great way to gather friends and just have a great time, even if you don&#8217;t follow football.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Whether you&#8217;re cheering for the Patriots or the Giants (or neither), make sure you attend this year&#8217;s party looking cute and stylish! Don&#8217;t let the unflattering cuts of men&#8217;s team gear stop you from showing your best at this week&#8217;s Super Bowl parties.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">With this week&#8217;s edition of <strong>Outfits Under $100, </strong>I&#8217;ve created two outfits that will help you show off your team spirit, but still bring out your great taste in fashion. Even if you don&#8217;t intend on going to a Super Bowl party, you can easily substitute pieces or change your color set to match your school colors. With a few adjustments, each of these outfits can easily be transformed into outfits to wear to any game, not just the football variety.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Tips for Getting Great Sports Gear</h3>
<ul  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Buy apparel during the off-season: </strong>When the season is over, most stores tend to put sports apparel on sale in order to make room for other sports. Shop during the off-season of your favorite sport to get the best deals.</li>
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Don&#8217;t feel obligated to just buy apparel with the team&#8217;s logo: </strong>Especially if you&#8217;re on a budget, buying apparel with team logos can be expensive. Branded merchandise tends to cost more than normal apparel, so instead of buying a jersey, wear a shirt that you already have in that color. Or buy a dress or tunic in your team colors. That way, you can wear it not only to football games, but even to dinners and other occasions.</li>
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Accessorize: </strong>A great way to show your team spirit without having to buy a totally new outfit is with accessories. Hats, scarves, rings, and necklaces are all great accessories that you can buy for pretty decent prices that will show off your team spirit without breaking the bank.</li>
</ul>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit 1: Patriots (Total: $94.24)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69377"  title="New England Patriots Superbowl Outfit"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/patriots-superbowl-outfit.jpg"  alt="New England Patriots Super Bowl Outfit"  width="516"  height="455" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16747"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jeans</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16748"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Tank</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16749"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Cardigan</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16750"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16751"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bangle</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16752"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Beaded Bracelet</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16753"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Nail Polish</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16754"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Earrings</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This outfit shows that you really can display your team spirit without being branded in team logos from head to toe. First, I chose a blue striped tank in the colors of the Patriots. This cardigan from Abercrombie and Fitch is a perfect piece to throw over your team shirt &#8211; it&#8217;s feminine but still gives off that old school Ivy League sports vibe. Accessories are a key component of this outfit. Red nail polish, blue shoes, red feather earrings, and assorted bracelets are great accessories that not only show your team spirit but can easily be worn with other outfits.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit 2: Giants (Total: $96.34)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69064"  title="under100-superbowl-2"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/under100-superbowl-2.jpg"  alt="under100-superbowl-2"  width="561"  height="408" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16755"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shirt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16756"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bag</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16757"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Pants</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16758"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Hat</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16759"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shoes</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Sometimes our boyfriend&#8217;s shirts just don&#8217;t flatter us in the right way. If you&#8217;re die-hard-sports fan, sometimes investing in women&#8217;s sports apparel is worth it. I love this vintage-looking Giants shirt from Alloy: The off-the-shoulder detail is super sexy while still maintaining the sporty look at the same time. If you&#8217;re as much of a sports fan as I am, then you definitely need comfy shoes to jump up and down in. These red shoes from Forever 21 are the perfect accent to a mostly neutral outfit. Plus, red is the accent color of the Giants&#8217; white jersey. Finally, the blue bag is the perfect shade for a Giants fan.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;"> What do you think?</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;"><strong>What are some of your favorite ways to show your team spirit</strong>?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This week&#8217;s <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/tag/fabulous-finds" >Fabulous Find</a> is kind of a contradiction in itself &#8211; a <strong>short sleeved sweater</strong>. I know what you&#8217;re thinking: Sweaters are to keep you warm, right? So&#8230; you kind of need full sleeves to do that, right? WRONG.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">I recently bought a short sleeved sweater and I have worn it to death &#8211; it&#8217;s definitely become one of my go-to pieces. Its short sleeves actually make it much more versatile &#8211; it&#8217;s perfect for those random spring-like days during the colder months, and perfect for layering under jackets on the actual cold days.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This one, from <strong>Charlotte Russe</strong>, has a slight metallic sheen to it (which I&#8217;m obsessed with) and is only <strong>$9.99</strong> &#8211; so why not nab it now and wear it through the rest of winter AND spring?!</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">The Sweater</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69231"  title="Charlotte Russe metallic cable knit sweater top"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/charlotte-russe-metallic-sweater-top.jpg"  alt="Charlotte Russe metallic cable knit sweater top"  width="202"  height="350" /><br/>
Metallic Cable Knit Top &#8211; $9.99 at <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16702"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Charlotte Russe</a></p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">To get your inspiration going, here are a few examples ways to rock this awesome, versatile, budget-friendly sweater.</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 1</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69225"  title="How to wear a Charlotte Russe metallic sweater with dark skinny jeans, boots, and a scarf"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/charlotte-russe-metallic-sweater-black-skinnies.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Charlotte Russe metallic sweater with dark skinny jeans, boots, and a scarf"  width="500"  height="421" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16702"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Sweater</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16703"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jeggings</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16704"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Boots</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16705"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Scarf</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16706"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Purse</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This outfit is perfect for one of those warmer winter days &#8211; which is exactly what we&#8217;ve been having down here in Florida lately! Here, the sweater is paired with some dark-wash jeggings and these awesome flat ankle boots. A black scarf with chain graphics ties in the neutral browns from the shoes and sweater, while this great cross-body bag adds to the chain theme and gives the look a little shine. This ensemble would be perfect for class or just hanging around outside on a beautiful, warm winter day!</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 2</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-69227"  title="How to wear a Charlotte Russe metallic sweater with a denim jacket, studded bag, flats, and shades"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/charlotte-russe-metallic-sweater-denim-jacket.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Charlotte Russe metallic sweater with a denim jacket, studded bag, flats, and shades"  width="500"  height="433" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16702"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Sweater</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16707"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jeans</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16708"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jacket</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16709"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Sunglasses</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16710"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Flats</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16711"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bag</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This look is just as casual as the first, but gives off a slightly edgier vibe. This time, I mixed the sweater with this great pair of black skinnies, and added a classic denim jacket. A pair of black flats keeps the look feminine and simple, while this amazing studded bag packs a badass punch. The look is perfectly topped off with a pair of black wayfarers for that laid-back, carefree feel.</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 3</h4>

For this look, tuck the sweater into an awesome pair of high-waisted, belted shorts (that resemble a skirt) &#8211; the combo acts as a pretty background to a silver statement necklace. Black tights keep you warm when layered underneath the shorts, while these great metallic lace-up wedges elongate the legs to give you that badass, bombshell look.</p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Sometimes when I have no idea what I want to wear, I like to decide what <em>shoes</em> I want to wear and work from there. Most people I know usually pick out their outfits and then pick out their shoes. But most of the time, I find my shoes inspire my best outfits.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Given that it&#8217;s winter and most of us are living in boots right now, for this week&#8217;s edition of <strong>Outfits Under $100, </strong>I&#8217;ve created 3 outfits centered around 3 pairs of boots. The best part? Each outfit, <em>including the boots</em>, costs <strong>under $100!</strong></p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit 1: Girly Biker (Total: $95.78)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68787"  title="Outfits Under $100: High heeled ankle boots, leather jacket, grey skinny jeans, earrings, bracelet, pink tee"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/outfits-under-100-boots-1.jpg"  alt="Outfits Under $100: High heeled ankle boots, leather jacket, grey skinny jeans, earrings, bracelet, pink tee"  width="547"  height="436" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16566"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jacket</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16567"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shirt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16568"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Boots</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16569"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Leggings</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16570"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bracelet</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16571"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Earrings</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">These boots are the perfect combination of fierce and sexy. These ankle booties are a twist on the military boots trend: The chunky heels &#8211; which are also hot this season &#8211; add a feminine flare, while the rivet details and buckles add edgy appeal. Add a jacket and some mineral washed leggings to complete this biker look. To keep the outfit a little more feminine, I&#8217;ve added this peach-hued shirt that gives off a soft, flirty vibe.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit #2: Downtown Chic (Total: $94.42)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68786"  title="Outfits Under $100: Geometric patterned boots, off-shoulder tee, cross-body bag, black skinny jeans"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/outfits-under-100-boots-2.jpg"  alt="Outfits Under $100: Geometric patterned boots, off-shoulder tee, cross-body bag, black skinny jeans"  width="547"  height="329" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16572"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Boots</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16573"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shirt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16574"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bag</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16575"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jeans</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This casual look is perfect for going to class or just hanging out at the lounge. Geometric prints are everywhere this season and these boots from ZARA are a great way to try the trend. When wearing low cut boots, what you wear on the bottom is crucial. Skinny jeans or leggings allow the pants to be easily tucked into the boots without excess fabric spillover. This off-the-shoulder skull shirt is perfect for any casual occasion and the leather cross-body bag is the perfect touch to match your boots.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit #3: Taller is Better (Total: Under $75!)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68785"  title="Outfits Under $100: Knee-high boots, red dress, envelope clutch, bracelet"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/outfits-under-100-boots-3.jpg"  alt="Outfits Under $100: Knee-high boots, red dress, envelope clutch, bracelet"  width="433"  height="552" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16576"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Boots</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16577"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Tunic</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16578"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Clutch</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16579"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Bracelet</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">If you live somewhere chilly, you probably know that tights and leggings don&#8217;t always cut it when it comes to staying warm. The cold weather used to stop me from wearing my favorite dresses in the winter. But thigh-high boots changed everything! They come up high enough to cover a good portion of your legs without taking away from an outfit. Now I love wearing them over tights or leggings to stay extra warm in my dresses.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Because thigh-high boots make such a statement, I&#8217;ve chosen to pair these gorgeous flat suede boots with a simple but sexy sweater dress. A basic envelope clutch and a statement bracelet finish the look. Just add tights or leggings (and your favorite coat, of course) for a perfect winter night out look!</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Questions? Comments?</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Now I want to hear from you! <strong>What are your must-have boots this winter? How do you like to wear your favorite pair of boots? Which outfit is your favorite?</strong> And like always, if you&#8217;ve found a great deal recently, please share!</p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">One thing I&#8217;ve learned from living in New York City is to never get dressed without looking up the weather first. Its already hard enough to decide what to wear, but some days it gets even harder when you have freezing temperatures and wind chill to contend with.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;"><strong>Here are my top tips for dressing for colder weather:</strong></p>
<ul  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em;">
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Layer. </strong>This may sound obvious to some, but during the winter season, dressing in layers is extremely important. If your legs get cold on your walk to class, wear leggings or stockings under your jeans. If your school or classroom blasts the heat, wear a couple of layers that you can take off once you get inside.</li>
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Double layer. </strong>Yes, layering is THAT important. I often wear two pairs of leggings on days when it&#8217;s going to be below freezing. Since I have to walk 30 blocks (yikes, I know) to get to school, I always double layer &#8211; whether that means two pairs of leggings, two pairs of socks, or even two pairs of mittens.</li>
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Rock winter accessories. </strong>When leaving your dorm, don&#8217;t forget those hats and gloves! We lose heat the fastest through our heads, so make sure to grab that hat or wear your hood when it gets cold. Plus, these items are a great way to accessorize your look.</li>
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Don&#8217;t forget the sunscreen.</strong> Okay, maybe this won&#8217;t exactly keep you warm, but sunscreen is super important to <em>wear</em>, even in the winter. Many people forget to put on sunscreen in the wintertime, even though they are still at risk for sun damage. In the winter, I like to wear moisturizer with SPF protection. It keeps my face moisturized and protected against the sun at the same time.</li>
</ul>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">With this week&#8217;s edition of <strong>Outfits Under $100, </strong>I&#8217;ve created three outfits to keep you warm this cold winter. The best part? Each outfit costs <strong>less than $100</strong> total!</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit #1: Who said skirts are only for summer? (Total: $78.19)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68123"  title="under100-outfit1-winter"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/under100-outfit1-winter.jpg"  alt="under100-outfit1-winter"  width="450"  height="419" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16439"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shirt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16440"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Skirt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16441"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Belt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16442"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Leggings</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16443"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Necklace</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16444"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Ring</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16445"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shoes</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">If your summer <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/trends/top-5-spring-2011-trends-to-try/" >maxi skirt</a>s are in storage, it&#8217;s time to bring them back out! While maxi skirts have been super trendy this year, the harsh winter temps make them tough to wear. However, by adding a warm pair of leggings underneath, you can now turn your maxi skirt into a winter staple. Rock one with ankle booties, a striped top, belt, and cute accessories for a fun look that will remind you of spring&#8230; while keeping you warm enough for winter.</p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">The <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/trends/ask-cf-how-do-i-wear-faux-fur/" >fur vest</a> is another trend that we&#8217;re loving this season. Fur vests are not only stylish, but are also a great way to add some warmth to your outfit. I&#8217;ve paired this faux fur vest ($25) with a simple knit sweater and some red skinny jeans. I&#8217;ve also seen many NYU fashionistas wear their fur vests on top of their leather jackets for extra layering warmth.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">To complete the outfit, add these adorable boots, which are lined with faux fur. The extra lining will keep your feet nice and toasty even in the coldest weather. The cute knit headwrap not only keeps your ears warm but makes quite a fashion statement as well.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit 3: Bring on the Cold (Total $96.82)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68128"  title="Outfits Under $100 for Winter - Thermal, blazer, boots, pants, scarf"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/under100-outfit3-winter.jpg"  alt="Outfits Under $100 for Winter - Thermal, blazer, boots, pants, scarf"  width="532"  height="449" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16452"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shirt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16453"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Scarf</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16454"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Pants</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16455"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Coat</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16456"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Boots</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This outfit is for those battling serious winter temperatures. One of the best ways to keep warm is by wearing thermals, items made of two layers of fabric, which trap more body heat than a single layer of clothing could. This thermal from Urban Outfitters can be worn by itself or under another shirt to add more warmth.</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">The coat with leatherette sleeves from Forever 21 is another trendy piece: Companies like Zara and Burberry have similar coats for more than 3 times the price right now. Finally, if you live where it constantly snows or rains in the winter, then these boots are really made for walking. They are not only waterproof and stylish, but come with a knit lining that will keep your feet warm at the same time.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">What do you think?</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;"><strong>What do you wear when it gets cold?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">I&#8217;ve come to realize that I have a real problem. I have a slight obsession with stripes. And by &#8220;slight,&#8221; I mean HUGE. Whenever I go shopping, I literally can. not. pass up a good striped top. </p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Why, you ask, am I so obsessed with striped items? Because stripes literally go with EVERYTHING &#8211; neutral items, other prints, even plaids (yes, that &#8220;no plaids and stripes&#8221; rule is outdated), and do so in style. So if there&#8217;s a super inexpensive top, sweater, scarf, whatever that dons this pattern, I can&#8217;t pass it up. And this week&#8217;s Fabulous Find is no exception! This <strong>Forever 21 striped top</strong>, only $12.80, is the perfect neutral piece to fit seamlessly into any girl&#8217;s wardrobe.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">The Tee</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/forever-21-striped-tee.jpg"  alt="Forever 21 3/4 Slv Striped Top"  title="Forever 21 3/4 Slv Striped Top"  width="190"  height="401"  class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68222" /><br/>3/4 Slv Striped Top &#8211; $12.80 at <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16391"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Forever 21</a></p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Now that you&#8217;ve seen the adorable tee, check out these three very different ways to style it!</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 1</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/forever-21-striped-shirt-blue-cardigan-outfit.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Forever 21 striped shirt with a navy blue cardigan, neutral corduroy pants, light colored ankle booties, and a scarf"  title="How to wear a Forever 21 striped shirt with a navy blue cardigan, neutral corduroy pants, light colored ankle booties, and a scarf"  width="450"  height="455"  class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68224" /><br/><a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16391"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Tee</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16392"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Pants</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16393"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Cardigan</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16394"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Booties</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16395"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Scarf</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This look is very neutral and laid back, but &#8211; thanks to a few subtle details &#8211; is still interesting and stylish. Here, I paired the tee with these awesome skinny brown corduroys, to be slightly rolled up above these classic grey desert booties. An oversized navy cardigan looks cute left open over the tee, while a vintage-inspired scarf with a pop of red adds some interest and color to the overall look. I&#8217;d wear this look to class, or to the library to get some studying done!</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 2</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/forever-21-striped-shirt-leather-jacket-outfit.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Forever 21 striped shirt with a brown leather jacket, black jeans, wayfarers and loafers"  title="How to wear a Forever 21 striped shirt with a brown leather jacket, black jeans, wayfarers and loafers"  width="450"  height="419"  class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68223" /><br/><a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16391"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Tee</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16396"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Jeans</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16397"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Jacket</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16398"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16399"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Ring</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16400"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Sunglasses</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This look plays a little more with patterns and color combinations but is still casual like the first. I started by pairing the striped tee with a pair of black skinny jeans and these great leopard loafers with gold details. A cognac colored leather jacket (coincidentally lined with leopard fabric) adds contrast, and a gold ring and black sunglasses are the perfect toppers to an already fabulous outfit.</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 3</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/forever-21-striped-shirt-skirt-outfit.jpg"  alt="How to wear a Forever 21 striped shirt with a black full skirt, leopard blazer, ankle booties, a spike necklace and tights"  title="How to wear a Forever 21 striped shirt with a black full skirt, leopard blazer, ankle booties, a spike necklace and tights"  width="550"  height="419"  class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-68225" /><br/><a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16391"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Tee</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16401"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Skirt</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16402"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Blazer</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16403"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Shoes</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16404"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Tights</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16405"  target="_blank"  rel="nofollow" >Necklace</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Like the second outfit, this look, the dressiest of them all, also plays with stripes and leopard print &#8211; but in a totally different way. For this look, I started by tucking in the shirt to this simple black circle skirt, and adding a pair of black tights for warmth during these winter months. This amazing black-and-metallic leopard blazer contrasts perfectly with the stripes, and badass black heels with silver details tie in nicely not only with the blazer, but also with the incredible silver-spiked necklace.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Your thoughts?</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">So there you have it &#8211; one shirt, three ways! If I were you, I&#8217;d go snag this shirt, and try it out with EVERYTHING, cause chances are, it&#8217;ll look awesome! So&#8230; do you love your striped shirts? How would YOU wear this tee? <strong>Let me know what you think by leaving a comment!</strong></p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Whether you&#8217;re just hanging out with the girls or heading over to a party, this outfit is perfect for a night out on campus. The last thing you want to wear to an on-campus party is something that will restrict you from having fun, like an overly tight dress. Campus parties can also sometimes get messy and the last thing you want is for someone to spill beer all over your suede pumps. So keep your outfit minimal and casual and don&#8217;t wear anything that you don&#8217;t want to get ruined or lost &#8211; save the nicer stuff for a nicer occasion!</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This over-the-shoulder sweater is simple, but flirty at the same time. I&#8217;ve paired this shirt with some nice skinny black pants that are comfortable but still stylish. The military boots and studded bracelet add edge to the oufit and keep it from being too simple. Finally, the cross-body bag is perfect for your bare essentials and you won&#8217;t have to worry about losing your bag because it can easily be worn all night.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit #2: Friday Date Night (Total: $92.18)</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-67274"  title="Night out outfit under $100 - Floral skirt, red cardigan, necklace, earrings, satchel, oxfords"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/under100-outfit2-friday.jpg"  alt="Night out outfit under $100 - Floral skirt, red cardigan, necklace, earrings, satchel, oxfords"  width="524"  height="342" /><br/>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This outfit is perfect for any date to the movies or even out to a nice restaurant. For a date, you want to keep your outfit romantic and flirty but not too over-the-top. This dress from ASOS ($22!) plays up the flirty, romantic vibe with the flower design and flare skirt. But the black top keeps the dress casual at the same time. For footwear, I added some simple oxfords, but the look could just as easily be paired with some platform heels for a dressier vibe. Throw on a cardigan to keep you warm, accessorize with some cute jewelry and wear a killer bag (only $8), and you are good to go!</p>

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Turn heads at your favorite club or bar in this little black dress. This statement-making frock is perfect for hitting the town &#8211; the unique back detail keeps it sexy while the extra padding in the shoulder area makes a strong and powerful statement. Since the dress is so unique, accessorize with basic jewelry, like simple bangles and pretty studs. Next, add wedge booties to take this outfit to the next level. Finish with a jacket &#8211; this pink leather one adds color to the look and is also great for those chilly night outs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This week&#8217;s <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/tag/fabulous-finds" >Fabulous Find</a> comes from the one and only Walmart &#8211; and it&#8217;s definitely a steal! At only <strong>$18</strong>, this <strong>moto-style jacket</strong> is inexpensive, functional AND comfortable, made of knit terry instead of leather or wool. Even though it&#8217;s made of a lighter-weight knit material, it still maintains its structure and brings a cool edge to any outfit. Read on to learn how to style it!</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">The Jacket</h3>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-67652"  title="Walmart French Terry Motorcycle Jacket in Black"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/walmart-french-terry-motorcycle-jacket.jpg"  alt="Walmart French Terry Motorcycle Jacket in Black"  width="208"  height="299" /><br/>
French Terry Motorcycle Jacket &#8211; $18 at <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16215"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Walmart</a></p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Outfit Inspiration</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Below, I&#8217;ve created three totally different ways to style this one awesome jacket:</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 1</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-67655"  title="Outfit Idea: Motorcycle jacket, floral maxi dress, burgundy circle scarf, wedge ankle booties"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/moto-jacket-maxi-dress-outfit.jpg"  alt="Outfit Idea: Motorcycle jacket, floral maxi dress, burgundy circle scarf, wedge ankle booties"  width="500"  height="407" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16215"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jacket</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16216"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Dress</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16217"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Scarf</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16218"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shoes</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">The first look is something that easily transitions from summer to the colder months &#8211; a <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/fashion-tips/one-item-four-ways-maxi-dress/" >maxi dress</a>! Worried about staying warm? Throw on a pair of tights underneath &#8211; who&#8217;s gonna see?!</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">To create this look, I started with this gorgeous floral dress and added the black moto jacket for some edgy contrast. Next, I layered on this gorgeous deep red scarf for some extra warmth and a pop of color. As for shoes, I chose a black wedge that not only works with the whole color palette, but will make you seem like you have legs-for-days underneath that maxi!</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 2</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-67654"  title="Outfit Idea: Motorcycle jacket, leopard shorts, black tights, black sneakers, graphic tee"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/moto-jacket-leopard-shorts-outfit.jpg"  alt="Outfit Idea: Motorcycle jacket, leopard shorts, black tights, black sneakers, graphic tee"  width="500"  height="436" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16215"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jacket</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16219"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Tee</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16220"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Shorts</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16221"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Sneakers</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16222"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Tights</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">This look is much more casual than the first, but just as warm and stylish. Here, I paired the jacket with some awesome leopard print shorts and a quirky black and white graphic tee. Black tights, worn underneath the shorts, keep this outfit winter-friendly, and these great sneakers (which I&#8217;ve used in CF posts before &#8211; they&#8217;re just so perfect&#8230;) are comfortable AND stylish. Rock this look while you&#8217;re running errands or just hanging around.</p>
<h4  style="font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;font-style: italic; font-size: 13px; color: #000; font-weight: bold;">Outfit 3</h4>
<p class="center"     style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;text-align: center; padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-67653"  title="Outfit Idea: Motorcycle jacket, hot pink dress, ankle booties, patterned tights"  src="http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/moto-jacket-pink-dress-outfit.jpg"  alt="Outfit Idea: Motorcycle jacket, hot pink dress, ankle booties, patterned tights"  width="441"  height="448" /><br/>
<a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16215"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Jacket</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16223"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Dress</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16224"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Tights</a>, <a href="http://www.collegefashion.net/link.php?id=16225"  rel="nofollow"  target="_blank" >Heels</a></p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">The last and most dressy look definitely packs a lot of punch. This time, the moto jacket is paired with a hot (almost neon) pink, ladylike dress &#8211; which makes the rougher black accessories pop even more. These badass black lace-up heels are the perfect contrast to the feminine pink dress and even more feminine polka dot tights, and the moto jacket has the same toughening effect. Wear this outfit for a night on the town with the girls &#8211; you&#8217;re sure to turn heads.</p>
<h3  style="color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;color: #FF00B1; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px 0px 5px 0px;">Your thoughts?</h3>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Now I want to know what you think! <strong>Do you see the outfit possibilities for this week&#8217;s Fabulous Find?

<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Winter is here and as much as we may love it or hate it, it is time to bring out those <strong>winter coats</strong> (if you haven&#8217;t already)! Sure, coats are meant to keep us warm, but who says they can&#8217;t make a fashion statement at the same time?</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">Your winter coat can be more than just a functional piece; it can add style to every single winter ensemble. But as we all know, coats can be expensive, making it hard to find a stylish one that still fits your budget. It&#8217;s not impossible, though &#8211; it just takes a little extra work!</p>
<p  style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.5em; text-align: justify;"><strong>Here are some tips on scoring stylish winter jackets at a discount:</strong></p>

Luckily, stores tend to showcase their spring lines in the middle of winter to prepare for the upcoming season. With good timing, you can grab a great jacket for a fantastic price and still have time to wear it that season! If you do end up buying a jacket in the spring for the next winter, make sure it is a timeless style, something that will still be wearable next winter.</li>

Don&#8217;t sacrifice warmth and comfort for a pretty coat that will only leave you shivering.<strong></strong></li>
<li  style="list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;list-style-image: url(http://www.collegefashion.net/wp-content/themes/cftheme/images/pink-star.png); margin-left: 15px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 20px;"><strong>Dress according to your climate. </strong>If you are one of the lucky few who live or attend university where it is warmer in the winter, you can probably opt for a lighter jacket (like the one in Outfit #2). On the other hand, if snowstorms and blizzards are a weekly occurrence where you live, make sure you find a jacket that will make a statement <em>and</em> keep you toasty (like the one in Outfit #3).</li>
