Tailored with a Twist
We are loving this tailored dress with a front twist. It's got a great clean cut which will flatter your shape. It's adult enough for an interview and cute enough for cocktails. Best of all, it's priced at $65 and made even cheaper for you, because Chic Deac is a sale finding expert. Type in the code "PSWLOVESASOS" (courtesy of People Style Watch) to get 20% off of the already low price on this gorgeous dress.

Buy This, Not That
We love this Michael Kors gold a-line skirt on the left, but the price is a bit out of our range at $380. This ECI jacquard metallic skirt gives us the same glimmer for a lot less dollar at just $69.
Happy shopping, chic ones!

Anthro Sale Alert
This amazing sweater we posted back in the summer (oh the days when Chic Deac was so young) and we've been eying it ever since. The sale price dropped to below $50, but there are limited sizes available. We're sure it's beautiful in black and white too. Check it out here.

Item of the Week - This One's for the Boys
In the spirit of men's week here on Chic Deac, our Item of the Week is for them. Dapper Duds is a tie company created by college students.
Looking for jobs in a post-collegiate world made them realize that the stuff that would get them the job (quality suits and ties) were actually very pricey, they were inspired to create quality, low-cost ties. The result is beautiful, and better yet, they specifically make them in school colors. One of the founding partners is Greg Jokl, a current Wake Forest student.
Three lucky Chic Deac readers will be winning ties next week - one of each of their signature styles. Check them out below and find out how to win the ties at the very bottom! The first style is the Signature Plaid. This tie is different than the usual tie seen out there in the world of work. It is available here on the Dapper Duds site.
The second is the wide stripe black and gold tie. It's classically styled and would be great for any tailgate. It can be found here on the Dapper Duds website.
Lastly, we really love the Dapper Stripe black and gold tie. This style is perfect for work and would look good on any man. Check it out here.
Now, how do you win one of these Dapper Duds ties for yourself or your man? Submit a picture of you wearing black and gold. It's super easy and you could get a free tie out of it! Send your entries to chicdeacstyle@gmail.com!

Real Men of Wake Forest
Today is part two of our week focusing on menswear here at Chic Deac. Check back tomorrow for our Item of the Week - a special gift for our male readers (or boyfriends/husbands/brothers of our female readers). Chic Deac took a visit to the Deacon Shop in Reynolda Village and found some especially Wake Forest-y looks for men.
We actually especially like these pants, but they've simply got to be worn on the right occasion by the right guy. Only a certain type of super preppy/fratty/metrosexual guy can pull off this kind of look. It just isn't for everyone - so ask a friend if you are the type of person who can pull it off.
We're loving the assortment of ties they have over there. Wear it to a tailgate (if you're that kind of tailgater) or the office. It's a simple and easy way to show your pride in Mother, So Dear.
Lastly, a word to the wise on sweater vests. They are appropriate in two occasions only: if you are over the age of 50 or playing golf. Worn off the golf course, this look ages people who are too young to wear it. But a Wake Forest polo? For any guy at any time.
Happy shopping, men of Wake Forest!

Chic Deac at the Office
In case you've got an important meeting or interview coming up in the near future, check out this outfit we've pulled for you. It's a great way to look pulled together while also showing your Wake Forest pride. The first item makes the outfit - this Whirl & Wind cardigan from Anthropologie has such perfect details. I'd wear it with a simple cami and the next item.
This skirt is from Ann Taylor Loft. Made of silk and cotton, this is a great skirt for summer or fall. It's $70 right now, but surely there will be a Loft sale somewhere near you in the near future.
To top it off, I'd get a simple black kitten heel like this Calvin Klein Diema Pump from Endless.com. If you haven't tried Endless yet, you need to! They ship OVERNIGHT for FREE. Returns are free too in case it hasn't worked out. One time, I ordered a pair of shoes from them at 7:00pm for a meeting the next morning. They were in my mail box at 8:00am. It was shoe magic.
