Skirted Trenches for Spring

By -
Reader Driz, commented on an old post about a great skirted trench Jeal Paris found last year asking us to post any new skirted trench finds. Driz, you have perfect timing. Recently, I ran across this stunning, purple, skirted trench for half off, and Jael Paris found some spring coats to keep you dry, some of which are skirted (I reposted the Latte one here because it's a good find). These posts have inspired a search for that perfect skirted trench. Here are a few I've found.

I also found the a lovely, classic skirted trench with crop, bell sleeves at Marshall's recently. It's last season so I can't find it online. It's by "laundry by design" and costs $69.99. You'll have to check a Marshall's by you to see if they have it. It's an amazing deal. (Edit: I found a medium, cream-colored one on Ebay starting at $49.99. It's like the one I found in the store only lighter).

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year.

Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
