It's All About The Bag (and the accessories)

Accessories make all the difference when styling an outfit.  From your earrings to your shoes and everything in between, accessories can make or brake your look.  Carrying a great bag will really pull your look together and when it's a bag like this one from Gregory Sylvia not only will you be stylish but you will be organized!  This fabulous leather bag has three compartments (one with a zipper), and two additional smaller interior pockets.  It boasts a shoulder strap as well as a detachable cross-body strap for easy carrying wherever your day takes you.  My bag is a gorgeous navy blue leather, perfect for fall and winter, with Gregory Sylvia's logo elegantly stitched on both the back and the front of the bag.  And speaking of accessories... Have you checked out my Stella & Dot website yet?  We have the most amazing accessories for fall!  A few new accessories are an easy way to update your look with out spending a lot of money.  Some of my fall favorites are the Aria Pendant Necklace and the Pop Geo Pendant, both of which can be worn multiple ways,  as well as the Pop Geo Chandeliers (that can transform into studs) and the Pave' Chevron Cuff.  Take a peek and tell me what you think!







What I'm Wearing ~
Navy Leather Bag: Gregory Sylvia c/o
Drapey Drawstring Pants: Old Navy
White Top: T.J.Maxx (Identical)
BCBGeneration Lace-up Cage Booties: Crushing on this dreamy pair for fall!
Necklace: American Eagle (old) This one from Stella & Dot is my new favorite.  I love it so much I may have it in all three metals!




Have you started adding to your fall wardrobe yet?  A great bag and a few stunning pieces of jewelry are always first on my new season shopping list!

This Skirt

How fabulous is this skirt?  From the full skater style to the bold colors and fun pattern it's a stunner!  This skirt makes such a statement I paired it with a neutral, feminine blouse, black shoes and clutch that would let the skirt be the focus of the outfit and not compete for attention.  I kept the jewelry simple too with an arm stack of thin bangles with turquoise detail and stud earrings.  




What I'm Wearing ~
Skirt: Flying Tomato via Encore (Similar here)
Blouse: Tulle via Encore (Long sleeve version here)
Clutch: BCBGeneration via Encore (Love this one too!)
Lace Up Cage Booties: BCBGeneration via T.J.Maxx (These are fab!)





This skirt looks good coming and going!




Today's the day!!  Join me at Encore in beautiful downtown Athens from 5:00 - 9:00pm for the latest in fall fashions (including the fabulous outfit above), stunning Stella & Dot jewelry and accessories, sips and sweet treats from The Sweet Trend and styling by me!  A portion of the Encore proceeds go directly to University of Georgia Relay for Life.  See you at 186 East Clayton Street, Athens, Georgia 30601!

Snake and Leather

Snake and leather ~ what a combo, right?  I love how it's edgy without being over the top.  And I've never in my life put on a pair of pants I like more.  These fit and feel amazing and the vertical pattern makes my legs appear longer and thinner than they actually are (but that's our little secret!).  These pants have been added to my fall wish list...along with the top in Monday's post and the jacket in last Friday's.  Oh Encore, how I love your fall fashions!!




What I'm Wearing ~
Snake Print Jeans: 7 For All Mankind via Encore
Drapey Top With a Faux Leather Back: Tulle via Encore (Crushing on this faux leather tee!)
Black Lace-up Cage Booties: BCBGeneration via T.J.Maxx (These are fab and are on SALE!)
Black Clutch: Urban Expressions via Encore (Similar)
Sunnies: Coach



I love all the different textures!









Are you loving the fall fashions from Encore I've shared with you in the past few posts as much as I am?  Well, there are even more fabulous fall clothes where these came from!  Join me THIS Friday, September 19th from 5:00pm to 9:00pm at Encore for a Sip & Shop and Stella & Dot Trunk Show!  You will have the chance to try on all the great clothes Encore has to offer and get styled by me!  Plus I'm hosting a Stella & Dot Trunk Show at the event and I will show you how to style the stunning jewelry with Encore's fashions.  When you leave you will be all set for fall!!

Audrey and Taylor

When I went into Encore  last week to style outfits for my current series of blog posts I was instantly drawn to this top.  It's a very on-trend dressy sweatshirt, the Swiss-dot and quilted detail are to die for and it reminds me of something Audrey Hepburn or Taylor Swift would wear.  You could say it's a win, win, win!  Oh, and it's super comfortable.  Another win.  I'll be adding it to my fall wardrobe for sure!!




What I'm Wearing ~
Quilted sweatshirt with leather and swiss-dot detail: C Luce via Encore (Similar here)
Black pointe leggings with faux leather detail (SO comfortable!): I <3 Tyler Madison via Encore (Similar here)
Quilted bag with chain strap: Urban Expressions via Encore (Obsessed with this one)
Black lace up cage booties: BCBGeneration via T.J.Maxx (Love these and they are on SALE!)
Gold and black earrings: Encore (Similar and gorgeous!)





I love the detail of this sweatshirt! Quilting, faux leather and swiss-dot lace!
