Should You Add These 8 Pieces To Your Closet This Season?

If you’re a BeansTalk regular, you know that we love Lucky Magazine. Maybe it’s because we’ve never worked for them and all girly fan-like over them, but it’s such a well-organized magazine, with the requisite photos and just enough info. They listed “The Eight Most Important pieces to add this season.”

The pieces Lucky shows are super way out of our budget (the long dress, for eg. Is $700; the retro suit $650, etc.) We’ve borrowed their ideas, but added our own suggestion (we’ve tried to stick to the affordable range, instead of the splurge/steal we profiled last week).

Corset. Lucky calls it utilitarian, but fiercely sexy. They show it over a long-sleeved top or turtleneck. Here’s our pick from Forever 21:

Embroidered Corset This embroidered spaghetti strap corset is what everyone's looking for.
