I’m squeaking in at the end here with this month’s style post! I had put together two fashion posts earlier in the month, but a few people have been asking for the official January outfit, so here it is. It’s one of my favorites ever, I think.
-
Ponte Knit Skirt, $17.99
-
Isabella Cardigan, $88
-
Stump Ring, $170-220 (with engraving)
-
Spare Ribs Tights, $13.50
-
Sterling Kitten Heels, $148
-
Nylon Stripe Leslie, $368
-
Poppy Flower Perfume, $45-85
p.s. Is it helpful to have the prices listed, or is it distracting? I try to pick from a good range, and I don’t include anything I wouldn’t consider spending my own pennies on.

January 31, 2012 at 1:02 pmLove! I like the inclusion of the prices, too.
Amanda
January 31, 2012 at 1:02 pmI like the pricing. :) Though I do wish that floral shirt was about $100 cheaper. It’s so pretty.

January 31, 2012 at 1:06 pmI know. I have a similar printed top from Old Navy, from about six months ago, but it’s not nearly as nice.

January 31, 2012 at 5:53 pmI have a very similar shirt from Lands End (which i actually LOVE – it’s no iron and looks great all the time) and it’s currently $19.99 online. Here’s the link: http://www.landsend.com/pp/womens-34-sleeve-pattern-no-iron-stretch-shirt~217737_59.html?bcc=y&action=order_more&sku_0=::GKL&CM_MERCH=IDX_women-_-shirts-blouses-_-no-iron&origin=index

January 31, 2012 at 1:17 pmI love the way you listed it with the prices!!
Amanda
January 31, 2012 at 1:19 pmThe ring is my favourite piece here; I’ve never seen anything like it!

January 31, 2012 at 1:23 pmI really like having the prices showing. Saves me the trouble of having to click to find out the bag is way too expensive for me. :-)
rebecca
January 31, 2012 at 3:28 pmDitto! Love the prices and hated having to click around.
Loren
January 31, 2012 at 1:31 pmI ran into that little pink skirt at Target the other day. Seeing it here and loving it before I knew where it was from means I should probably go back for it.
Kimberly
January 31, 2012 at 1:35 pmI like to see the prices. In this case the price of the skirt evens out the price of the shirt.
Heather
January 31, 2012 at 1:40 pmI love the prices!

January 31, 2012 at 1:43 pmI’m wondering if the ‘Liberty Art Fabric’ is a nod to Liberty of London prints or if it indeed a Liberty of London print. I have a soft spot for these prints, as my father used to wear Liberty of London ties all the time. I agree with the others about pricing — it’s helpful to see the price and have some expectations before clicking through to the link.

January 31, 2012 at 1:50 pmI wish you were prego right now, because I could really use some maternity style inspiration! :)
Jesselyn
January 31, 2012 at 2:05 pmI like the prices included! For me, who has a smaller budget, it lets me know what to take just as inspiration and what I can actually get my hands on – like that skirt from Target!
jess
January 31, 2012 at 2:26 pmI like having the prices here. It annoys me when I have to click thru to see whether or not I can afford something. With your style posts, I can determine just *how much* I love an article before I click through.

January 31, 2012 at 2:41 pmOh, I love! Pairing caramel-colored tones with bright colors is awesome and a combo I always overlook.
Catherine
January 31, 2012 at 3:06 pmI like seeing the prices, especially in the context of the whole outfit – some of the pieces look way pricier than they are! Now if only Anthropologie would fix their ghastly ripoff dollar-to-euro exchange rate so I could justify buying those beautiful shoes… sigh.

January 31, 2012 at 3:58 pmI like the pricing!
Lyndsey
January 31, 2012 at 4:06 pmI love having the prices listed. Please keep on.
Miranda
January 31, 2012 at 4:07 pmOh dear, I am quite in love with that cardigan. I like that you included the prices.
Mary Beth
January 31, 2012 at 4:11 pmI own the Isabella cardigan in the pale pink
color Boden calls blossom. It is a stunner.
The buttons really do sparkle! All in all, a
beautiful piece of clothing.
I like seeing the prices.
Thanks Nicole – you have a fascinating blog.
Zoe
January 31, 2012 at 4:53 pmWell, for me the prices are quite distracting as I can’t afford most of the pieces. Maybe “depressing” is more precise!
Pallavi
January 31, 2012 at 4:54 pmYES! Having prices is very helpful, and not too distracting. Don’t worry your minimalistic pretty head
Polina
January 31, 2012 at 5:25 pmAs one of those people requesting the official January post i officially thank you!!! I print out your style posts and look at them for inspiration, i also purchased a few favorite pieces over the years like Old Navy Kelly Green Maternity Shirt Dress, Anthropologie Yellow Ruffle Bag and a few others.
I think having prices is very helpful. After all this is not a shopping list, but an inspiration collage that you can often replicate with cheaper items if something is out of your budget or something that you already have in your closet.

YES. I always hope that’s how these are taken, for that’s surely the intent!
Erin
January 31, 2012 at 5:51 pmPrices are very helpful. Thanks!
Tatyana
January 31, 2012 at 6:14 pmI’ve been obsessing about black and white stripes lately – so love the bag.
I’m also loving the Mossimo knit stuff at Target. I think I’ve gotten about 6 dresses from them – so comfortable!
Prices on all this stuff are awesome!

January 31, 2012 at 6:49 pmThe ring….ummmm, no.

January 31, 2012 at 9:09 pmGlad you include prices — EXTREMELY HELPFUL :)

January 31, 2012 at 10:13 pmI was eyeing those shirts at J. Crew, too! Love the liberty floral prints. Just came across your pretty business card from Alt, too. I love how it’s classic, but still very fresh. And I wanted to say again that it was nice seeing you at Alt!

February 1, 2012 at 2:29 amOooh, pretty! Love the stump ring!

February 1, 2012 at 2:42 amNice job in Adore!!!!

February 1, 2012 at 9:56 amI really like the prices being shown.

February 1, 2012 at 11:12 amI love those rings…
Didi
February 1, 2012 at 11:38 amAlways enjoy your fashion posts. But! Your new blog design — gorgeous! Wouldn’t expect anything less from you, though!
Teri
February 1, 2012 at 12:05 pmI love the pricing included…although J.Crew might as well be haute couture for the prices nowadays. Over a hundred dollars for cotton button-downs? The problem is you’ll never be able to find their rich colors anywhere else for cheap…except maybe ebay?
AmyK
February 1, 2012 at 12:34 pmI might have to take a trip to Target to look at the skirt. Maybe nice for Valentine’s dinner.
I really love your style posts and I often find “jewels” at stores I might have passed up.
Erin R.
February 1, 2012 at 1:16 pmI LOVE it.
Laurie
February 1, 2012 at 1:20 pmIt is definitely helpful to show the prices…..that helps me decide if I will go out and buy it myself, or not.
Stephanie
February 1, 2012 at 4:13 pmLooks lovely indeed. Congrats on the re-design!
Elizabeth
February 1, 2012 at 4:41 pmThe site looks great! As a fellow webdesigner, I applaud your creativity that you bring online. My blog lacks that, but I hope to get it looking better soon!
For the price question, I like it! I hate it when people do not put the price of an item because if I want it, I have to search the item and find how much it was. If it was too expensive, I just wasted my time. Not only that, but it’s common sense that even though something may be out of your price range, there are always similar items out there.
elizabeth
February 1, 2012 at 10:03 pmlove it! You are so talented!!

February 1, 2012 at 11:09 pmOh my. The cardigan, the bag, the shooooooooz! Great stuff and I appreciate the prices.
Katie
February 1, 2012 at 11:26 pmI like seeing the prices posted, although I wouldn’t exactly call that a good “range.” There are a lot of good pieces, but almost $90 for a sweater? Over $300 for a purse? $300 is like my total clothing budget for a year, if that.
I love seeing your style posts, they are totally an inspiration, even if I can never ever afford anything you list.
PS. I would love to see a beauty style post, about the different makeups, nail polishes, face stuff, etc you use and love!
And maybe a house style post with listings for (hopefully more affordable!) organic sheets, rugs, etc. :)
Kristy
February 2, 2012 at 9:08 amPlease keep showing prices!
Mary
February 2, 2012 at 9:53 pmI definitely prefer the prices to be included! Great outfit and very cute new site design.
Wanda
February 5, 2012 at 9:56 amHelpful! Many thanks!
