Yes, even Target is on sale right now and, as you might expect, the offerings are deeply discounted and ridiculously tempting, particularly the Target x Neiman Marcus collection, which includes this super versatile metallic Marc Jacobs pouch (it also comes in rose gold). Also compelling: a chic black lacquer , a , and a all half off, all perfect for last-minute gifting! I'd throw this little clutch into the everyday mix with...

1. Dear Cashmere sweater,
2. Rika print jacket,
3. Marc Jacobs metallic pouch,
4. Acquazzura cut-out pumps,
5. Topshop jeans,

A wardrobe staple rendered in leather is simply too good to pass up. The ways to wear it are endless, and how ever you do, you can count on looking polished, slightly edgy, and totally up to speed. I'd sleek it up with...

With Isabel Marant ushering in a decidedly bohemian movement with her , you can definitely count on seeing more gypset-spirited accessories out and about, like this clutch from Antik Batik (on sale, at 56% off). The only hesitation I have is whether to give this baby away or keep it all for myself, since I can totally imagine it with...

Everyone is salivating over Stella McCartney's just-out leopard print . It's completely understandable as this animal print has major staying power, and it was already spotted in many pre-Fall 2013 collections. It's no wonder, then, that Stella's pants have spawned some wildly good wannabe's, like this pair from Mango (which sold out in its first-run a few weeks ago, but, thankfully, have just been re-stocked). I'd work them with...

My new Clare Vivier bag is causing quite a stir. I can barely leave the house before the questions and compliments commence. From A-list Hollywood actresses, to editors (Vogue's already has one), designers, friends, and every other girl on the street in LA and NYC, everyone, it seems, wants to know where this bag came from and how to get one! So here it is in all its glory, and yes I do love mine, and no, I am not worried about everyone having one, since fortunately, the monogramming option helps clare-ify whose is whose. Wear it with...

I came across a picture of a cooler-than-cool European woman, perched on a moped, wearing a blue velvet suit and then it hit me: a pair of tailored velvet trousers are most definitely cooler than cool.

While the pre-Fall 2013 collections are currently being unveiled (a synopsis on these shows to come later this week!), pre-Spring 2013 styles are just rolling into stores, including this gorgeous African print peplum stunner from Thakoon Addition. All there is to say about this top is WOW! And don't wait till the weather warms up to wear it!

I made a quick trip to New York last week and did a lot of walking around, despite the rain and cold (is it just me or is there a taxi shortage?). To insulate myself, I did some major layering, and I noticed I wasn't alone. Spotted on the streets uptown to downtown: fur vests over coats, lightweight puffers under jackets, leather vests over chunky cardigans and distressed jean jackets. This long, oversized leather vest would fit right in, a versatile piece that's not restricted to the frigid outdoors, either (i.e., how cute would it be over a floaty chiffon dress during the spring?). Plus, it's on major sale (reduced from $810). I'd wear it this very minute under and over a coat, along with...

I have a trench-inspired jacket like this that I bought ages ago and what I love most about it is that it's both indoor and outdoor-worthy. Cleverly, this one has buttons on its sleeves so you can roll them up and costs a mere $59.

What about a ruffled organza eggplant confection in lieu of an LBD? Yes, please.
