Clutching The Quilt

Almost Friday lovebugs,
We're getting close. I thought we would spend some time in the purse department today. In particular the quilted clutch. I have a thing for quilted details, whether its in a jacket, sweatshirt, or today- the clutch.

JCrew Factory, Quilted Envelope Clutch, $88 (extra 25% off with code EXTRA25)

Here is a tough question for you: tell me when you wouldn't use this bag? Right.

Sole Society, Trichelle, $34

A simple wristlet that comes in a great berry color.

Asos, Quilted Clutch Bag, $22

What a fun going out bag, but you can also use this as a great compartment to put your essentials in when you are using a bigger bag for work.

Last Call Neiman Marcus, Deux Lux Quilted Honeycomb Foldover Clutch, $65 $45

How about a honeycomb option? This bag looks so expensive, so don't tell anyone it's not.

The quilted clutch is a great option for a going out bag. It's classy and its got personality.

Cuff Her

You what trend I'm having some trouble with loving? The ear cuffs. Who thought of this? Why? Why do we need to cuff the ear? But then I saw wearable options. The good people from Sole Society and BaubleBar who took this runway idea and made it workable for us normal folk. Let me show you.

Sole Society, Mini Stone Ear Cuffs, $24

See? We can do this. Great shape, not necessarily understated but we can do this.

BaubleBar, Hermes Ear Cuff Earring, $28

Two pieces, one ear. That's right. This is some serious ear bling.

Bloomingdale's, Rebecca Minkoff Fringe Ear Cuff, $58

So picture this with your faux leather jacket, now picture it with an LBD. It.Works.

Piperlime, Sam Edelman Navette Stone Earring, $50

This earring is so simple and stunning. Delicate petal detail with just enough sparkle.

So are you coming with me on the ear cuff train? I'm on it. I'm not driving the train, but I am definitely on board and enjoying the ride.

V is for Cardigan

I'm a big believer in cardigans. I keep one at the office when they decide to turn us into popsicles, I have a small collection (as The Bf says) at home, and I just think they are the most versatile, four season piece you can own. Today we're looking at the v-neck option because it is great for layering.

Ann Taylor, Ribbed V-Neck Cardigan, $79

Two words: Dark pine. This color is my new favorite of the season. 

Gap, Eversoft V-Neck Cardigan, $44

Have you tried the Gap eversoft line? It's the feel of cashmere without the price.

JCrew, Merino Wool Double Knit Long Cardigan, $78 with code TGIFALL

JCrew's merino does not go on sale often. Scoop up this do it all neutral, you won't regret it.

LandsEnd, Cotton Cable V-Neck Cardigan, $59

The look of Ralph Lauren with the utility and reliability of LandsEnd, and in a gorgeous violet.

The v-neck cardigan is a classic piece that you can wear buttoned up with a tie neck blouse or wear open with a striped tee for a casual look. It's your do it all piece.

Bombs Away

Happy Monday lovebugs,
There is a chill in the air here on the East Coast. Do you feel it? It's fall kids, and I love it. It's time for layers, boots, and light jackets. We've discussed vests which are a great option for fall. And last week we looked at blanket scarves . Today we're talking bomber jackets, and boy do we have some options.

Piperlime, Tulle Embroidered Bomber Jacket, $74

Didn't see that coming, did you? I know. I'm in love.

Zappos, Converse Quilted Bomber Jacket, $65

This jacket looks so cozy and casual. Want to have some fun with it? How about adding a sassy pin? 

Nordstrom, Olive & Oak Floral Print Bomber Jacket, $58

A beautiful fall floral hue. Oh that navy.

Loft, Lou & Grey Draper Bomber Jacket, $89

Worn in, relaxed, soft, casual, I can keep going...

The bomber jacket isn't just for the boys. These patterns, quilted details, and colors are perfect for us and perfect for right now.
