I’ve been a bit preoccupied with this Ali Ro dress ($318) since I saw it on Gal Meets Glam earlier this week (that back cut out…swoon!). I definitely can’t justify the price tag given that I bought a car this month, so I’d be perfectly happy with this BB Dakota version for less than $40.
If the BB Dakota dress sells out at Dillard’s, it’s available at Shopbop and their own site. It’s just not as great of a discount.
I’ve always been fond of Lemlem’s multiple stripes and color combinations, but $170 is a bit steep for a gauzy scarf. Get the look with this Mango version for a fraction of the price. I also found lovely versions at Gap ($29.95) and Old Navy ($12.94).
Would you splurge or save on an orange Lucite clutch? While I appreciate the clear border on the CC Skye version, the Zara clutch is my pick for this trendy accessory.
No matter your position on real fur, no one can deny the chic sensibility of the faux version. I’d suggest saving your pennies with the Target version – it’s a third of the price and just as elegant.
Splurge: MICHAEL Michael Kors, $60
Save: Target, $19.99

An embellished sweater is one of fall’s hardest working pieces. You’ll get a surprising amount of mileage out of it: to the office with a pencil skirt, out for drinks with stilettos, and with jeans on the weekend.
Splurge: J.Crew, $118
Save: Dorothy Perkins, $59
