Come Through in the Clutch
A clutch is chic. Bold. Front-and-center. It instantly elevates any look.... but let's be honest... in the middle of shopping, working, or running errands...or even holding a plate of appetizers at a chic soiree, what's a girl to do when she needs both hands free. Never fear, The convertible clutch is here! If you need to go hands free, just pull out the strap!

Weekend Warriors: Daytime
...last minute invitation to a concert...a housewarming... a party... what's a girl to wear?! If you're like me, half of your clothes are in the laundry basket, the other half are in the cleaners... and the rest?? The rest are the same clothes you push past week after week, as you think... "I need to go shopping!" But the perfect outfit is probably not far away. Here is one of CFF's fail-safe Weekend Warrior Wardrobe solutions.
Think of this as your answer to the sweatshirt. Comfy, yet pulled together, this cozy topper will solve weekend wardrobe woes! Not likely to wrinkle, and in a goes-with-anything neutral, a choice like this Irregular Stripes Sweater from Mango will be a staple for lunch, brunch and coffee runs!
2. Comfy Jeans
Yes, we know. We've all seen those magazines that recommend a dress as a chic daytime alternative to get out of the weekend rut. And that's a fantastic idea... but the other 90% of your weekends will be spent in this all-american classic! Now this is not an excuse to pull out some jeans that have been through yard work, house work, and two decades of wear! These jeans should look broken in, but have a modern fit and feel. Try on some like these 1969 Always Skinny Jeans by Gap. They might just become your secret weekend wardrobe weapon.
3. Stylish Sneaks
Just because its the weekend doesn't mean you need to reach for your cross trainers! For a low-key daytime look that still has some panache, give some zippy sneakers a go! A pair like these Combined Sneakers from Zara are sure to give some on-the-go glam to your weekend look.
4. Grab-and-go Tote
Because after lunch with your friend, you never know where the afternoon will take you, this stylish tote allows you to pack that library book that you've been meaning to return, your Kindle to keep you busy (once you return the library book) and that mail that you've been meaning to drop in to the post office. The punchy color, and optional shoulder strap makes a bag like this Marc by Marc Jacobs Preppy Nylon Hobo bag the perfect weekend carry-all.
Last minute lunch with a friend
You're lounging in your sweats with a bowl of snacks, prepared to catch up with your favorite shows on the DVR, and your phone chirps...your best friend calls you for a last-minute lunch date! Yes.. you'd like to go, but the thought of putting on something without an elastic waistband is giving you hives. Here's how to be casual and comfortable without sporting that I-just-rolled-off-the-couch-and-and-pulled-on-some-clothes-look.... even if you did.
The Key pieces:
1. A Cozy Sweater

Spring Fling
CFF Readers!
It's been months since you last heard from us. Winter scared us off, we must admit! But now as the last of the snow melts (in some parts of the world) we get ready to exchange our wool sweaters and bubble jackets for thin knits and trench coats. Few things excite us here at CFF like the change of seasons, and this spring is all about reaching back to the past to inspire today's fresh modern looks! But don't worry. Referencing the past doesn't mean pulling out the same old styles! This week, we're going to take you on a tour of Spring 2011. Fresh. Fun. Forward.... Chic Foot Forward, to be exact. Stay Tuned!
