Let’s face it: we can’t all have our money right where we like it, hanging in our closet (though I’d love Ms. Bradshaw’s closet any day!)

New York Fashion Week Fall 2013 provided us with style inspiration for the the months ahead from brightly printed frocks at Diane Von Furstenberg to jewel tone and metallic looks at Monique Lhuiller.  While we may not all be able to wear these looks soon, there are luckily LOTC (Luxing it on the Cheap) looks we can wear right now!

Billowy blouses

Romantic, billowy blouses with generous sleeves sauntered down the runway at Monique Lhuiller (love the gathered neckline), but is also available now in a slightly simpler cut from BCBG Max Azria.

Midi skirts

Victoria Beckham said that she designed her collection by thinking about the opposite of what she would wear (no minis were seen there!) and the longer length tulip skirt can also be seen at Kensie.

Printed dresses

An easy look for less is Prabal Gurung’s printed dresses since he happens to have a capsule collection out for Target now.  His look there is a little simpler, but still fun and floral.

    Thanks for sharing! I will get a head start thrifting similar looks. I especially would like to try reworking a long skirt into a midi mullet skirt. Debbie @ ilovemylemonadelife.com

      Debbie, you are welcome and thanks for coming by the website! A maxi or midi skirt would definitely be perfect and could be converted into a midi mullet skirt straight from the runways!
