Mend a broken heart with this lapel pin.

HEART AND SOUL: This gives a whole new meaning to the term “wear your heart on your sleeve.” This Dee & Ricky brooch inspired by Legos is a quirky take on a traditional lapel pin. Available at RSVP Gallery.

IT’S A CINCH: Jessica Simpson, Lauren Conrad, Miley Cyrus and many other celebs love the belts by designer Linea Pelle, and so do we. Get them in Chicago at Perchance Boutique. The Steel Skinny w/ silver studs is 98 bucks.

PARTY PICK: Get ready for a night out – or prep for a season of festive nights out – with the Occasion Sequin Clutch. It’s covered in sparkle, lined with leather and available in multiple colors. Available at Coach.

FLAP AND GO: The Italian Leather Flap Briefcase by Kenneth Cole is a featured hot pick by the designer for fall. Embossed brown leather with suede flap liner and multiple interior pockets mean you can shove everything in and still have room to spare. Oh, and it looks good too.

POP UP SHOP: Chicago designer Elise Bergman and boutique owner Rosie Dulyapaibul introduce a new shop-within-a-shop. Beginning October 24, the back corner of the Roslyn boutique in Bucktown becomes the Elise Bergman Studio at Roslyn. Any purchase over $250 comes with a hand silk-screened reusable tote bag. 2035 North Damen Avenue, Chicago
