Tweed used to feel a little bit stuffy, but it’s our fave fabric of the season. Here’s the deal: look for a jacket with plenty of modern details—rockin’ piping, a hint of sparkle or a crazy cool shape.

Mismatched earrings give off an awesome, devil-could-care vibe (without actually breaking any rules). We like these sweeties by Betsey Johnson, but you could totally swap out a couple pairs in your jewelry box. One way to make it wild, without being weird? Opt for earrings that have a similar vibe—a wing and a bird, a heart and an arrow, a stud and a sword, etc.

Chain purses are classic for making ya look ladylike. You could spend your entire life savings for a Chanel one or, um, drop a Jackson on one of these cuties. They work with your party outfits or with jeans and a tee.

Raise your hand if you’re sick of jeans being too big in the waist/not fitting right in the butt or being crazy-tight in the hips. We’re sweet on the new Curve ID system over at levis.com. Basically, you take a quick quiz about your body type and then they show you which jeans work for your bod. Um, brilliant.

There are sooo many ah-mazing mani colors at the moment, we’re basically painting our nails nightly. This not-too-dark blue is sophisticated and feels fresh. Great for days when you wanna go dramatic, without splashing on black.
