Leopard, Backpacks and Pink Drinks

Leopard, backpacks and pink drinks ~ these are a few of my favorite things!  Seriously, if you asked someone to describe me they would probably say, "A little dark haired, green eyed woman, wearing leopard print, carrying a backpack and drinking a pink drink"!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, leopard is a trend that never goes out of style.  You can wear it season after season, year after year, especially in a classic A-line style like this sleeveless sweater dress.  It's purfect for this time of the year.  It can be worn with a cardigan or jacket if it's cold out but looks great alone when the temps warm up in the afternoons.  Suede knee-high boots, ankle booties and lace up flats all look great with this easy-to-wear dress.  Oh, and it has pockets!!  Doesn't get much better than that!

Sorry for last week's blogging absence.  I've been struggling with migraines the past few weeks and last week was particularly hard.  After trying to function through the work day, blogging at night was just not happening!  But I have something really fun in the works and it should be coming to the blog later this week!  Stay tuned!

Fall Wardrobe Refresh

One of the best ways to update your look for fall without spending a lot of money is by adding a few new accessories to your wardrobe.  I'm an accessories loving girl ~ bags, shoes, scarves, hats, jackets, vests and of course, jewelry, are my jam and the first things I gravitate to when I'm craving a wardrobe refresh!  I recently stopped by Versona to check out their new fall line and let me tell you, I had a hard time choosing what to bring home with me!  So.Much.Good.Stuff!!  Name an accessory, Versona has it!  If you follow me on Snapchat (if you don't, you should!) you saw my Versona trip in realtime AND you were able to help me choose what to get this shopping trip and what needs to be on my "to buy REALLY soon" list!

Versona doesn't just sell accessories, it's a great place for basics and clothes as well!  How about that metallic moto jacket?!?!

Table after table and rack after rack of accessory goodness!

I'm a sucker for a cute graphic tee, fabulous bag and the perfect desk accessory!

I've been on the hunt for an affordable gold tassel necklace ever since I fell in love with this one a while ago so I was thrilled when I came across this double tassel beauty at Versona!  I couldn't find it online to link it but they have it in store.  (My sweater is from Entourage Clothing and it just went on sale for $32!)

It's pretty perfect, right?  It comes in silver as well!

Y'all, next to diamonds turquoise is my favorite stone!  I wear a turquoise ring every single day no matter what else I'm wearing.  It just makes me happy!  (Dress and Cardigan are both from Entourage Clothing and booties are from Amazon.)

Seriously, how great is this necklace?!

I bought this necklace in bright yellow at the beginning of the summer and I've worn it so much (and gotten so many complements on it) I regretted not buying it in gray as well, so I was really excited that they had one left on my most recent Versona visit. Oh, and it was on the clearance table!! Win, Win!

Don't you just love a fabulous statement earring?

The latest additions to my accessories wardrobe.

Have you started your fall wardrobe refresh?  Tell me what you've added, or what you want to add to take you into the new season with style!

I was gifted the earrings and a gift card by Versona.  Review and opinions are my own. 

#FALL4VERSONA

From the Archives ~ Transition

Fall happened here in Georgia over the weekend.  Like real fall.  Very cool (even cold on Saturday) temps and the leaves on the trees started to change.  I lived in boots, jeans and flannel!  It's heaven for me.  I love layering, boots, scarves, sweaters, jeans, jackets...and the fall colors make me so happy!  Today I realized that I had a few "saved up" outfits in the blog archives from summer to fall transition that I hadn't posted yet and I decided to go ahead and post them before my full-on fall outfit posts start!

Kimonos are a great way to layer during the transition months with out being too hot!

What I'm Wearing ~
"Maxi" Kimono: Forever 21 (sold out) / Love the fall-like colors in this one!
Orange Tank: Versona / Similar
Denim Shorts: Gap / Similar
Wedges: Chinese Laundry / These are on a great sale!
Tassel Necklace: Stella & Dot (I wear it with everything - from cocktail attire to denim!)
Earrings: Stella & Dot (these are "transformer" jewelry ~ they go from chandeliers to studs!)
Leather Cuff: Tory Burch (LOVING this one and this one! 100% of the proceeds goes to breast cancer research!
Bag: Vintage Gucci via Agora Vintage / Similar

How perfect is this necklace?  You can wear it several ways too!

How's the weather where you are?  Has fall decided to make it's appearance or are you still in transition?

Silver

I bought this silver top months ago (like when it was freezing out) on major clearance, hung it in my closet and forgot all about it until yesterday when I was searching in my closet for something to wear that wasn't wintry.  I haven't switched my wardrobe over yet from fall/winter to spring/summer.  It's a job that will take a few days, especially with the weight loss because I'll have to try every single thing on, so I've been trying to make due with the few transition pieces I have and the new stuff I've added.  Hopefully in the next week or so I'll hunker down and make the switch.  It's actually easier editing someone else's closet than my own.  It's kind of like that old story of the cobbler that didn't have any shoes...I'm the closet editor that has a closet that needs editing!

What I'm Wearing ~
Top: Versona (Bought on clearance back in December. Love this one by Tory Burch (it's on sale!) and this one by Elizabeth and James.)
White Jeans: Rockstar by Old Navy (identical pair by Gap and cropped version)
Lace-up Cage Sandals: Nine West
Necklace: No Name (This one by Ann Taylor is so pretty!)
Sunnies: Emilio Pucci c/o Alexis Suitcase
Clutch: No Name (I'd LOVE to add this one by Tory Burch to my collection!)

Have you transitioned your wardrobe over for the season?  If you need help, I'm currently booking appointments (email me at savvystyle30605@yahoo.com).
