Forget about the pumpkins! The only type of picking I’m focused on right now is my fall wardrobe. And with so many trends to try this season, I’ve been searching the sites to stock up on all the essentials!
As a professional fashion writer, online shopping is my area of expertise. I prefer to save instead of splurge, so finding sales is my Roman Empire — I think about deals on a daily basis. That being said, sometimes it’s worth it to spend a little extra on staples that you’ll wear for years to come.
