They say what goes around comes around… and they weren’t lying.  I’m about to date myself here by saying that I really enjoy watching re-runs of Full House.  It brings me back to a happy place.  I’m really about to date myself (and sound like a fuddy duddy) by saying, they don’t make TV shows like they used to.

While watching an episode of Full House one lazy mid morning… it was the one where Stephanie goes to junior high and doesn’t really fit but tries to make friends by smoking… I looked at her friend Mickey and thought, “Wow, I like what she’s wearing.”  Sure, sure, it seems strange to want to wear the same thing as a girl in junior high during the 90′s, but 1. they say the cycle or recycled trends is about 20 years, and 2. Mickey is probably around my age by now, no?

Yeah, that’s right.  It’s just about time the 90′s are come back into fashion.  Um, Doc Martens and flannel shirts anyone?  Hey, it’s better than the 80′s.

1.  Cabela’s Portugese Flannel Long Sleeve Shirt, $24.99, 2. Free People 5 Pocket Denim Cut Offs, $68, 3. Junk Food T Rex Hot Love Baseball Raglan Tee, $43.99, 4. Michelle Roy Chain Friendship Bracelet, $62, 5. Dr. Martens 1460 in Black/Greasy, $110, 6. Foot Traffic Cable Knit Over the Knee Socks, $9

How rude.

Now that it is officially December, let the holiday melee begin.  Not only do you have to find everyone on your holiday shopping list the perfect gift, you’re going to have to show up to give it to them.  And well, that’s probably going to require your attendance at many a fab holiday soiree.  So, why not start with one of the most obvious choices?  The Little Red Dress.  Now, let’s get one thing straight.  Every couple of seasons or so, someone tries to dub another color the “New Little Black Dress.”  Get real.  There is no such thing as the “New Little Black Dress.”  It’ll never happen.  The Little Black Dress is like the Queen of England- not going anywhere. HOWEVER, during this magical month, it is fun to swap out basic black for a color more festive… like Santa’s famous red suit.  (He wears black the rest of the year, FYI).  Also, you dont have to go for the oh so obvious fire engine red.  Try a deeper shade or perhaps even a pattern.

1. Emerson Thorpe Solid Tassels Dress, $286, 2. BB Dakota Kassia Dress, $105, 3. Tibi Floral Print Silk Gazaar Dress, $570, 4. Madison Marcus Triumph Bustier Dress, $315, 5. Lanvin Silk Gazar Dress, $3,990, 6. Vena Cava Youth Dress, $485, 7. Free People Printed Bodycon Dress, $68, 8. French Connection Drape Delight Asymmetric Dress, $259.99, 9. Forever 21 Scoop Back Lace Tank Dress, $24.80, 10. Jill Stuart Silk Chiffon Dress, $298

You may only associate the blazer as a piece of clothing worn by uptight businessmen and those ladies who wear white sneakers on their commute to work, but I’d like to let you in on a little style secret.  The blazer is far less boring and uptight than you think it is.  As a matter of fact, a blazer can go great for a laid back weekend running errands or a night out on the town with your girlfriends.  Check out how Heidi, Miranda, and Blake all incorporated this style staple into their wardrobes this week:

Alright, so the chances of taking a swan dive into clear blue waters at this time of year are probably slim to none for most of us… but that doesn’t mean you can’t take the plunge this fall.  Step away from the high dive and step over to your closet.  A deep v neckline is one heck of a way to make an entrance into any holiday party.  Just don’t forget your double sided tape!
