Open Discussion Thread: What’s your Halloween costume?

Are you going to dress up for Halloween this year?

For two years in a row, I dressed up. One year I was a French foreign exchange vampire from the 1960s and last year I was Little Black/Goth Riding Hood. This year I don’t have the budget to do anything new and creative, so I’m thinking of combining the last two years of Halloween costumes into one for this year.

Polyvore set: Yellow check top

I found this yellow check top with ruffle details to be fun and sophisticated. You can dress it up for the office or wear it with a pair of jeans for a more casual look. In this outfit I use the top for a fun office outfit.

This set is all about exploring a luxurious yet bohemian look. It combines a faux fur vest, opaque tights and a deep draped tunic dress.

Polyvore Set: Liquor Trapper Keeper

Times are rough. Gas prices, the unemployment rate, my bar tab – everything is high. With the economy not doing so hot, I’ve already started cutting back on my frivolous spending. I forgo bikini waxes, bring my lunch to work, and I’ve become a pro at doing mani pedis in the comfort of my living [...]

Polyvore set: Office Basic

It’s time to bust out the fall sweaters for the office. Here is one look that uses a cozy wool sweater, tights and a bold scarf to wear to the office.

How to shop

Fat Stylist is about inspiring your wardrobe, but it occurs to me that building an inspired wardrobe is only part of the challenge. Shopping for those inspired pieces is just as hard if not harder. We all probably have our go to stores for some pieces but is there a better method? I think there [...]
