The best part of my job is showing women how to make the most of the clothes they already own by shopping smart and being selective about the new things they buy.

It’s always a challenge to try and build an entire wardrobe that’s chic and wearable and affordable…and that’s way I love it when Nate asks me to do it for under $200 each season!

Please tune in this Friday to find out where to get my “8 must-buy winter items” (pictured left) and to learn how to remix them with simple basics to create an entire month’s worth of outfits…trust me, it’ll make you look at you closet in a totally new light!

1. Sweater, Old Navy

2. Plaid Shirt, JCPenney

3. Denim Shirt, Old Navy

4. Statement Necklace, Forever 21

5. Skinny Cords, Gap

6. Blue Blazer, H&M

I never give y’all enough of a heads up so I’m giving you almost 12 hours notice this time!

I’ll be back on The Nate Berkus Show today (11/30) doing what I love…showing real women what to buy, how to shop and how to feel fabulous on small budget!

I got the chance to do a little CheapChica housecall this time and paid a visit to one lucky viewer in New Jersey.  She has a problem I think we all have…so many clothes and not one thing to wear!

Tune in tomorrow to see how I revamped her closet and to find out my secret plan of attack for shopping smart and saving money at one of my favorite stores…TJ Maxx!  You won’t want to miss this episode!

PS: I love this picture of Nate and I…if you glance at it quickly it looks like he could be proposing to me…a girl can dream!

I must sound like a broken record at this point…but I hope at least I’m one of those classic songs that you don’t mind hearing on repeat!

So I’m back on The Nate Berkus Show today (wearing this amazing dress from Karen Millen pictured here) and I couldn’t be more excited about the segment…I’m going to show you how to take all of your Fall/Winter clothes and make them over for the new season.  I bet you’re wondering how…right?

Well, all it takes is one pair of pants…white pants to be exact and the ones we featured are under $25 from H&M so you don’t even have to spend a lot to transition your entire closet!

White pants instantly make anything feel fresh, spring-like and oh so chic…just think about how amazing Jackie O always looked in her white crop pants!  The key is finding a style that’s not too baggy and that hits right at or just above the ankle.

And if you’re wondering what to pair them with, take note of Spring’s 3 biggest trends: color blocking, neutrals and nautical…here’s a breakdown of where I got everything featured on the show:

Color Blocking: Blouse, H&M; Purple Pumps, Last Call by Neiman Marcus; Necklace, LOFT

Neutrals: Blouse, Top Shop; Snake Wedges, Last Call by Neiman Marcus

Nautical: Top, H&M; Pewter Sandals, LOFT; Necklace, Simply Vera Vera Wang

I hope this gets you in the mood to shop your own closet before you head out and shop for Spring!

I’m back on The Nate Berkus show today, so if you’re home please tune in or set your DVRs!

I always love going on the show (and not just b/c I have a major crush on Nate) and today we tackle a problem ALL of us have…over-shopping! Annette had more clothes in her closet than I do…many with the tags still attached but she still said she had “nothing to wear”…how many of us are guilty of doing that?? ME!

We not only help organize her closet so she can see what she actually owns, but I found tons of amazing items that she had never worn and help her style them like one of her fashion icons…JLo!  You’ll have to tune in to see how I take her old clothes and turn them into new styles!

Now for what I’m wearing…this maybe one of my favorite dresses I’ve ever worn!  You can’t really appreciate how cute it is because I’m sitting down in it during the whole segment, but this Lemon Macaroon Dress from Lulus.com is Spring at it’s best.

It’s a soft yellow color with a coral band around the waist and all those ruffles and layers make the dress look oh-so expensive but it’s not…it’s $70 bucks and I can’t tell you how many compliments I got on set!

Now for the shoes…we all know that coral is the hottest color of the season, so when I saw that this dress would give me the chance to scoop up a pair of coral shoes, I immediately went for it! This Kovie style from Michael Antonio went perfectly with the dress and I love that they even had a snake skin texture (another huge Spring trend)!

These shoes may not be for walking…they’re sky high…but they sure do look good on your feet and for $55 who can complain?!  I love having a pump in a super fun Spring-y color that will add some serious pop to otherwise neutral outfits.

And you know what I always say, if you’re scared of color in your wardrobe…just add it in your accessories!  So …what do you think of the outfit??

Here’s where I bought the items you saw featured on the show (L to R) along with links on where to find items similar to the ones she already had in her closet:

If y’all are home tomorrow during the day, please tune into The Nate Berkus Show on NBC! I’ll be on in the later half of the show (after Dr.Oz!!) sharing my secrets on how to look like a celebrity on a very tight budget!

And if you think you can tell the difference between a $20,000 outfit and a $200 outfit this show is for you…it’s a lot harder than you think!

I couldn’t be more excited for the show and I’m happy to say that I’ll be back for two more episodes in March!!
