Everything She Wants

The days of going back-to-school are long behind us, but we are always excited about fall and back-to-school shopping. And whether you're in grade school or a post-graduate, backpacks and bags are perhaps your most valuable fall fashion accessory. Booties are also essential, too. From Fall 2015 fashion previews, here are a few of Everything She Wants ' fave styles. From top to bottom:  (1) Nautical striped backpack and tan suede booties from Kmart; (2) Trendy red-and-black plaid and black/Aztec backpacks from Aeropostale; (3) Leather Western booties from DSW;  (4) Comfy and stylish suede/buckle wedge booties from Aerosoles; (5) Bongo backpacks and weekender bags in funky Aztec prints from Kmart.

Everything She Wants  wants to win a luxury trip to New York Fashion Week, February 12-19, 2015. I was invited to participate in an exclusive blogger contest hosted by Union & Fifth, a unique nonprofit designer online consignment store where 75% of sales are donated to charity. So I created a Polyvore mood board inspired by a coveted blue Chanel bag that will be given to the winner! As if that weren't enough, I would also win a two-night stay at a trendy NYC hotel and tickets to exclusive fashion shows. So please help me win by "liking" Union & Fifth on Facebook and by sharing this post on Facebook, Twitter and other social media channels before January 19, 2015.
