The Best of American Apparel

Because everyone needs a little AA in their life.

Nylon Tricot Figure Skater Dress ($48)

Call me crazy, but I think this shiny little number from American Apparel can actually be very versatile if you know how to use it.

TopShop in America!

Yes, it's true! Topshop is opening its very first store in the states! It is set to open around October in Soho, New York. In case you didn't know, Topshop is somewhat of London's version of H&M. It is an inexpensive, yet fashionable clothing store chain. Kate Moss has her own line for Topshop, too.

Best of Topshop:
(Clockwise from top left): Zig Zag Ikat Skirt, Dip Dye Trench Coat, Stripe Gathered Sleeve Top, Double Front Waistcoat, Open Toe and Back Ankle Boot, Multi Strap Wedge, Silk Colour Block Top

The Best of Urban Outfitters

Let's go shoppin' at Urban!

"Lux in the Fold Short" ($38) and "Matt Bernson Estancia Sandal" ($198)

"Charlotte Ronson Mini Peg Dress" ($148)

"Deux Lux Doublecross Bag" ($68)

"Suede Fringe T Strap Sandal" ($28)

I'm a huge fan of wearing slips as casual dresses. "Sparkle & Fade Savannah Slip" ($20)

The Best of Twelve by Twelve

Forever 21 opened a new branch within the last couple of months called Twelve by Twelve. Its clothing is much chicer, although they do have a smaller selection. The clothes are glam, while also managing to be cheap, which is a huge bonus. Some of my favorite pieces:

Mystic Sequin Cardigan ($59)

Houndstooth Lady Twill Coat ($46)

Sequin Luxe Sweater($52)

Also, the Empire Waist Cardigan ($28) would make a great casual outfit with a pair of dark skinny jeans.
