Chill Out!

{  Via: Free People  }

Brrr.....there has been a definite chill in the air the last week. I have had both my gloves and a scarf on several days this Fall.  A girl can't have too many ways to look cool while staying warm. This edit features a selection of haute hats, stylish scarves, and some great gloves for every budget.

Tory Burch Miller Leather Gloves

i am not much of a logo girl past a good Chanel CC, but the Tory Burch logo does not bother me. It's rather undefinable, and quite elegant. These luxe leather gloves are a good choice for a dressy look.

Shopbop

Mink Collar with Detachable Scarf

For those of you who still love the real thing. Isn't it unique? Pair it with your favorite coat, sweater, or little black dress. 

Lafayette 148 New York

Leather Opera Gloves

Long gloves for short days and nights. These are so lovely and available in fun colors. They are well priced and lined in silk.

Apparis Faux Fur Scarf

Designers of the fluffiest faux furs, Apparis bring us matching scarves. They are so soft, cozy, and fun to wear with any coat you have.

Moda Operandi

Escada Rita Ora Fedora

You don't have to be a "red hat" lady to wear one (not that there is anything wrong with them.) But you will make a statement in this show stopping hat!

Saks Fifth Avenue

Flecked Dot Leather Tech Gloves

Most texting gloves are super casual looking. These have a dressier vibe and are quite

 good looking.

Nordstrom

Black & White Brush Scarf

There's nothing better than a chic check. This warm and fuzzy scarf will be fun paired with white, black or red.

Topshop

Wool Hat

Just in at BCBG. If I wore hats, I would wear this one. The shape is great, and the gold chain link detail is super chic. Now save 30% on this style and everything on their website.

BCBGMAXAZRIA

Cashmere Pashmina

I love a good pashmina. These days I tend to wear them as a scarf instead of a wrap or stole.  The size of this style will create a neck scarf that makes a statement. It comes in 13 stylish shades, and is on sale now. The unusual and chic color shown above is called "smoke."

Pure Collection

Jocelyn Cowl & Mitten Set

I own the mittens. They are so much fun and light as a feather, yet they keep you warm. I love that you can text while wearing them. This year, I think I need the cowl to match. This is a set. See all of her styles at...

Fabulous Faux Furs

Standout Styles For Fall

{ Via: Sachin & Babi }

Still in recovery mode at Shop This, so understand that posts may be a bit short and sweet for a little bit. Yesterday began NYFW, a very exciting time to be in fashion and in NYC. Mr. Shop This is there as I write, and I think something is wrong with that picture. It should have been me! So today I thought it was fitting to take a peek at what's in store. The truth is I like it all, except for a trend called "modest" dresses. What's that about? Next week we will take a deep dive into the Fall trends.

The Edie Jacket & Estelle Mini Bag

This jacket and bag took my breath away. It's cut from faux but fabulous shearling. Do click through to see this jacket from the back view. The cut is relaxed with dolman like sleeves. By the way, both shearling and mini bags are a thing this season. LOVE!

Cult Gaia

Prosperous Sequin Jahira Skirt

And Ekkien Python Boot

Oh the luxe looks this season at Lafayette! I loved many of the new looks but these two pieces are my favorites. That skirt is so unexpected with both sequins and pleats! You will see that they styled the skirt with an oversized sweater. I would prefer something more close fitting. The boots are just the perfect finishing touch. I need.

Lafayette 148 NY

Escada Down Jacket & Pant

Oh what a look! Both pieces are very casually chic, and just what to wear on a Saturday afternoon shopping. The down jacket is beyond and quite Chanel-like. Love it all!

Side Stripe Pants  Down Jacket

Long Frayed Tweed Duster

We always need a light layer for Fall. This fringed and fabulous topper is super versatile. Love it both for its' look and price point.

Boston Proper

Akris Colorama

It looks like power suiting is here to stay, and these Akris pieces certainly take charge. This mix of patterns is not for the faint of heart, but it certainly will turn heads. I haven't seen a style like this is years.

Neiman Marcus

Rosetta Getty Turtleneck Midi

I love a dress with personality.  This marvelous midi says "day or night." It is the epitome of color block chic.

Moda Operandi

Ulla Johnson Jerri Boots

Animal print simply is not going away any time soon. Made from fur dyed haircalf, this style adds texture to any outfit.  Love how these will update last season's black coat.

Wedding Wednesday: What to Wear To A Spring Wedding

{ Via: Zsa Zsa Bellagio }

Having just returned from a very special wedding of my dear friend, Sara, I am filled with inspiration and ideas. Besides the Spring green napkins folded vertically under the plates, the mirrored Seating Chart, the pinspot lighting on each table, her exquisite lace dress, the guest clothing really stood out. This was a well heeled crowd that dressed in their finest frocks. "Mr. Shop This" and I were quite impressed. Remember, Coco Chanel said that "being well dressed is a beautiful form of politeness."  Get inspired by this edit of looks for every kind of Spring soirée.
