Kensie Wants to Recruit You!

Kensie has been putting out a lot of great stuff this season, but the military outerwear stands out among the rest as easily some of the most attractive pieces for Fall.

The Fade Tween Blazer in Dark Storm Mix is perfect for the cooler days. It's light enough to take off and carry if it gets too warm, but it has enough merit to keep you cozy when the temperature starts dropping. If you need a little more bulk then opt for the Brushed Houndstooth Coat in Black. Paired with a rimmed hat and a pair of lace up leather boots and you'll look ready to whip Winter into submission!

Zip It Up!

Zippers are all the rage right now and we at Urban Minx are hooked on them! From bags to dresses to jackets we've got a huge assortment of zipper gear. Our fave representatives from each category would be the Dylan Medium Tote in Black by Linea Pelle, which would look great draped over your shoulder when you wear the Simone Dress in Black by LA Made. Cover up in the Motocycle Jacket in Black by Kensie to complete the look!

Double Button, Double Fun!

With cold weather coming around the corner, it's important for a Minx to have her closet well stocked with cute jackets, so that's where the outerwear section comes in handy! The must-have for the Fall and Winter season is double-breasted jackets, a style that's classic, cute and especially warm. If you're looking for a more utilitarian jacket then the Faded Modern Magic Jacket in Dark Grey by Kensie is a good option. If you want something more flirty then the Ruffle Double Breasted Jacket in Eggplant by Tulle would look great with skinny jeans and boots. If a twist on a classic is what you're into then the Double Vin Coat in Hibiscus by Tulle will heat things up in any weather. Check out tons of other styles and colors of the double-breasted coat and jacket at UrbanMinx.com!

Chained

Bound in chains? Yup, but only with Sky, Kensie, and Miss Me. The style is eye catching and great for a night on the town. No need to accessorize with these tops, they do it for you. Plus, you don't want to over do it. Elegant, sleek, with a bit of edge, any of these chain embellished tops at UrbanMinx will meet your desire for something new and interesting.

Best Fit: Skirts

We minxes come in all shapes and sizes, so that can make shopping a bit of a problem for us. Especially in the Summer when we want to show off our assets, but not in the wrong or unflattering skirts and dresses. However, there are a few tried and true classics you can always follow to make sure you look your best!

If you're more of an apple shape (bigger at the top than the bottom) then a structured skirt is best to help give you a slender belly and sleek looking legs. A few favorites pieces from our store would be the Ember Skirt in White by BB Dakota because it's tailored, yet with the lace it's playful. The High Waisted Pencil Skirt in Grey by Billy Blues is a great at work skirt that's flattering on your tummy and hugs you in all the right places.

If you're more of a pear shape (bigger at the bottom than the top) then an A-line skirt is your best bet to accentuate your waist and hide your hips.Try the Pleated Pocket Skirt in Black by Michael Stars for a fun, flouncy day look. The Shadow Skirt in Black by Kensie is a good alternative to pants when you're at work.

Feeling the Erge

Just in time for fall Erge has sent a beautiful array of colors and textures! We are absolutely loving the burnout tops and scarves and can't wait to incorporate them into our fall wardrobes.

A great new scarf from Erge is the Infinity Scarf which is a full loop of fabric you can use to complete any look easily.

The 3/4 Sleeve Scoopneck Shirred Top is also a beautiful and flattering piece.

Burnout is not just from Erge for fall, we're beginning to see lots of beautiful fabrics from Juicy Couture-check out the Sticking Juicy Exquisite Top.

Kensie offers some classic tees in plain burnout fabric for a subtle style, while E.Vil takes a classic tee and bedazzles it with rhinestones to spell out some pretty hilarious sayings, such as "I'm a Legend in London, Hollywood Bigshot and I Really Rarely Ever Have Fun in Paris."

Hi Lo: Oscar de la Renta & Kensie

I adore Oscar de la Renta, but unfortunately I can't afford it! $2,790 for a dress is a bit steep for me...luckily we have a dress from Kensie, the All That Glitters Dress for only $138!

It may be a cliché but it is true that you don't have to spend a fortune to look like one! This is such a classic, chic, flattering dress.

Burnout Bombshell

The watchword of the moment is texture, texture, texture –and which one should come out on top but the deliciously vintage burnout style?

The distinctive personality and texture of the burnout tee looks and feels like a vintage store find, capturing the look of a well-loved top without the work. The unmatched artfully aged feel is topped off with the allure of subtle hints of skin peeking through the sheer fabric.

On top of the trend is Kowboys, a brand with a distinctive look despite its simple cuts. Crafted for comfort, Kowboys tops feature standout styles which range from natural textures to perplexing prints which verge on the whimsical side.

Don't miss out on Kowboys tops one sale here at UrbanMinx. Frills, florals, plain Jane, or on the range - the burnout tee is a look fit for all style types.

Get the Look: Emmy Rossum Takes Center Stage

Emmy Rossum is never fails to impress with her breezy fashion sense. She was snapped wearing this breath of fresh air as she left the Longacre theatre after attending opening night of La Cage Aux Folles .

You can achieve Emmy's look by pairing the Kensie Harmony Jacket with the Hippie Dress from Juicy Couture. Throw these strappy sandals into the mix for perfect starlet style.

What to Wear: The Dinner Date

If you're like me, you'll no small amount of time making sure your outfit is just right for a special night out (whether it's with a new beau or a tried and true love).

Of course every style differs when considering both the occasion and the individual, but hopefully this example above will provide a basis that you can build on to create your own personal look.

I picture the Shadow Roses Dress from Kensie a perfect medium for a date dress. It toes the line between sophisticated and sexy, and the sultry floral print is fun with a hint of mystery. What's more - it's not the sort of dress where you'll have to mindfully avoid flashing your bits to the public every time you bend over, thus allowing you to put full focus on your date.

Statement shoes are a big 'do' this season, and these Sergio Zelcer Pumps absolutely stand out. The patent has been polished to a high gloss (with a mirror-like shine at the heel) and the rounded toe combined with a kitten heel looks positively coquettish. These pumps are ultra comfortable too, so if your plans include dancing the night away you can do it without worrying about a heel hangover the next day.

Since your next dinner date is bound to be in celebration of V-Day, you just might be getting something glittery to go around your neck, but for now you'll just have to fall in love with Nashelle's Silver Swank Necklace. It features a garnet stone which matchess the Shadow Roses print almost perfectly, plus the dusky blush of the stone inspires such lovely thoughts of romance.

And finally, and girl who insists on carrying a bag only big enough to fit a lipstick tube is not thinking sensibly. Sure, it's cute, but it's no good for carrying those little essentials like mints, gloss, and even a tiny sewing kit in case one of your buttons jumps ship. Opt instead for a medium small bag like the Juicy Couture Easy Rider. It's compact but filled with handy little compartments to keep you organized.

Print Perfect

The popular trend of printed coats is the perfect way to make a statement with your style this spring, and with so many selections catering to every taste, it's impossible not to find something suiting.

Whether you like haute houndstooth, prim plaids in pretty brights, or polka dots in shades of plum, heavy textures are in!
