The Look For Less! Leighton Meester

Personally, I love Leighton Meester's style-- both on Gossip Girl and off. I was inspired by this look because it incorporates a lot of fall trends in one look:

I'm not sure where Leighton's pieces are from/how much they were but I tried to find some cheap alternatives:

One really big fall trend is capes. Leighton is wearing a brown tweed cape style jacket. I couldn't find a very cheap one. (These things are expensive!) The cheapest one i found was this one on karmaloop.com for $90. If you really want to invest in one, capes are awesome and unique fall pieces to incorporate into your wardrobe!

Lace is always in style! It's so cute and girly and I love it! (Especially the dress Leighton is wearing!)

This is a really cute lace dress from Nordstrom's that i found for $46. I know that Forever 21 sells them for cheaper prices, but a lot of them didn't really fit the look I was going for. But if your looking for an affordable lace dress, I recommend going to Forever 21. 

Patterned tights are also super in for fall! They're super cute and very versatile. In Leighton's outfit, they're dressed up, but throw on a skirt and combat boots with your patterned tights to dress them down and you have a super cute outfit for school.

I found this black patterned tights at JCPenney for...wait for it...$7!!! Can you believe that?? And I'm sure some places sell them for an even lower price! Unlike the capes, patterned tights are so easy to get your hands on and there are so many ways to work with them!

I couldn't tell if Leighton was wearing heels or flats in the picture, but flats are much more casual and you can usual find them for cheaper prices then heels. I found these flats at Target for $14.99. I recently got a pair of suede black ballet flats at Wet Seal for $12.50! They're really easy to find and comfortable to wear.

In the photo, Leighton is also carrying a chic clutch. Clutches (especially with bright colors) really spice up your outfit and give an all black outfit a nice pop of color. I found this super cute flowered clutch on Amazon for $14.99.

See how easy it is to incorporate high fall trends into your wardrobe for a price that doesn't break your pocketbook? Any suggestions for more Looks for Less? Leave them down below!
