All The Things...

Call this November Must Haves, my birthday wish list (hint, hint) or an early holiday shopping guide, all I know is... I want all the things!

1.  Kendra Scott Choker Necklace ~ A trend I'm glad has made a comeback & I hope is here to stay!

2.  Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics ~ Naked pallets 1, 2 and 3 are the bomb so I can only imagine how great their ultimate pallet is!

3.  Spanx Faux Leather Leggings in Wine and Spanx Seamless Camouflage Leggings ~ I own two pairs of Spanx leggings already, Moto Leggings and Faux Leather Leggings in Black, and they are on constant repeat so I figured the wine and camo would be great additions to my fall/winter wardrobe.

4.  NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream Vault ~ The ultimate gift set for a NYX lippie lover like me!

5.  Kendra Scott Naomi Double Ring ~ I've not tried the double ring trend but this one makes me want to!

6.  Camo Ball Cap ~ I love camo, I love leather and this ball cap is perfect for days when dry shampoo has done all it can do for the week!

7.  Olive Green Lace-up Sweater ~ The color, tunic style and lace-up detail are perfection!

8.  Vera Bradley Sagebrush Satchel in Canyon Sunset ~ You knew I couldn't have a wish list without a Vera Bradley bag on it!  I'm loving the gorgeous orange-red color of this tote and the leather is as soft as butter!

9.  Velvet Blazer in Wine ~ Perfect for the upcoming holidays and for any day you want to feel fabulous!

10. Adidas Superstar Sneaker ~ The current "IT" shoe (there is one every season).  They will look so cute with all of my Spanx leggings! ;-)

What's on your list?!

My Fall Weekend Uniform

Happy November! My favorite month of the year!! I titled this post "My Fall Weekend Uniform" but to be honest this is pretty much " My Fall Everyday Uniform"!  Lucky for me I work where leggings, camo and cute kicks are welcome and I love it!  Don't get me wrong,  I have denim days and dress days but my favorite days are legging-tunic-comfy kicks days!

Every piece that I'm wearing is on constant repeat.  I live in these Spanx Moto Leggings and when I'm not wearing them I'm wearing this faux leather pair.  Both are fabulous, slimming, comfy and a must-have for every girl!  (This pair and this pair are on my birthday wish list because you can't have too many!)  Tunic tops cover a multitude of sins and make leggings acceptable to wear as pants.  You gotta cover that bootie, ladies!  Now the jacket... this camo cutie can be worn as a shirt or a jacket, is totally on trend and makes an otherwise basic outfit pop!  I sized up so it goes easily over other shirts.  Do you love comfy, chic kicks like I do?  Then these are for you too!  I've been carrying this gorgeous backpack every day this season but I decided to switch to a crossbody to change things up a bit.  This one is the perfect size ~ not too big and not too small ~ and the olive green color is gorgeous!

Have you adopted a uniform yet this season?  If so, tell me about yours!

Ladies Who Luxe

Two weeks ago I attended the Spanx Ladies Who Luxe dinner which was held again this year at one of my favorite Atlanta restaurants, St. Cecilia.  Wonderful food, great conversation, awesome company and fabulous fashion made for a perfect night.  As we wined and dined, we Blog Society ladies got to preview the fabulous new line from Spanx.  My favorites?  I loved it all but the moto leggings and girl shorts are at the top of my list.

I planned what I was going to wear to the event the previous night because I was going to be at the day job all day and would be rushing out the door to make it to Atlanta in time.  It ended up being really warm the night of the dinner and I had to change my preplanned outfit choice at the last minute.  I literally through this outfit together.  An easy, quick combo for times like this?  Favorite bottoms and booties, a simple tunic tee and completer piece ~ and of course ~ fabulous accessories!!

fab'rik Denim Dinner, SPANX Denim and a Giveaway!

First I want to say "thanks" for hanging in there while I try to figure out how to juggle things now that I've had to go back to work full time!  I'm not ignoring the blog...you my readers and my blog are on my mind all the time... but I'm trying to fit in a full time job, the launch of a Stella & Dot business, home, family, styling and blogging so my three-to-four-times-a-week posts have become challenging to get done!  Hopefully it will all get worked out soon and I promise to post as much as I can in the meantime!  Now on to today's post...

One of the best things about being a blogger is getting invited to fun events and reviewing great products and when those two things are combined it's a win win!  Last week I was invited to attend a "Denim Dinner" at fab'rik Suwanee, hosted by both fab'rik Suwanee and fab'rik Mall of Georgia which are owned by friends Kim and Tiffany.  The idea of the Denim Dinner was to get a select group of fashion bloggers together to talk fashion, eat good food, and try out the new denim line by SPANX.  You read that right, our favorite shapewear line now makes denim!!  Right now the line comes in dark wash, black and faux leather.  I've been in the market for a good dark wash pair of jeans so that is what I chose to try on first and immediately loved!!  The jeans are more like jeggings (jean leggings) with the fit and feel of high quality denim combined with SPANX.  They have strategically placed back pockets with faux front pockets and fly and a medium/high rise.  Stay on the lookout for them to make an appearance on the blog in the coming days (as soon as I have a chance to shoot some pics in them!) I've worn them, oh, about 4 times since the dinner!  They are super comfy and extremely stylish.

And now for some good news for you... fab'rik wants to give one of my followers a pair of SPANX denim too!!  And more good news... fab'rik also wants to give all of you a 20% discount on your purchase at their Mall of Georgia and Suwanee locations for the month of October!  What do you have to do?  To win the SPANX denim you must follow me on Instagram (@mzsavvystyle) along with fab'rik Mall of Georgia (@fabrikmallofga) and fab'rik Suwanee (@fabriksuwanee).  Then you must repost the giveaway pic I've posted on Instagram, tag two friends, tag @fab'riksuwanee and @fabrikmallofga and use the hashtags #giveaway #fabrikdenimdinner and #mzsavvystylelovesSPANX.  The winner will be announced October 31st on my Instagram!!  And don't worry if you don't live in Georgia, you can still enter to win and fab'rik will send the jeans to you!  To get the 20% discount all you have to do is mention me (Elizabeth ~ Mz Savvy Style) and my blog at either location between now and October 31st!!  Free jeans and a 20% discount?  It's a win win for you too!

I love the fabulous outfit on my new friend.  She's wearing the SPANX in faux leather.

Faux leather leggings: Target (old) / (Identical)
