Minted

I don't know why it took me so long to order my first pair of shoes from Shoemint, the dazzling brain child of Rachel Bilson and Nicole Chavez. After snagging a deal in their summer sale, I started browsing the fall collection; I didn't even know I needed brown leather ankle boots until I saw these bad boys.

Plus, there are so many Mint sites--Jewelmint, Beautymint, Stylemint, etc.--that it's easy to build a complete fall look almost exclusively from these lines.

And the best part? The Mint family sites are so crazy affordable that they leave plenty of room in the budget for $3,000 pants and a YSL handbag in the perfect shade of deep navy for fall.
