Brought to life





Sleeveless sweater- JCrew Factory        option
jeans- NYDJ  option  option
booties- old  option  option
necklace- JCrew Factory  option  option
earrings- JCP  option  option
bracelet- Charmed Stacks
nails- Adesse NY
eyes- Smashbox
 
This outfit is pretty much one of my Nsale outfit ideas brought to life. I wasn't able to snag the sweater during the Nsale but a little later I was able to get this one from JCrew Factory for less. Sometimes it pays to let it go and wait.  I'm still waiting to be able to wear another one of the Nsale ideas because it's still too hot. The temps are back up in the high 80s now. Oh fall, where did thou go?
 
One of those second outfit ideas features a blanket scarf. Speaking of blanket scarves, have you checked out ilymix?  You can get 20% off any order with code SAVVYSOUTHERNCHIC20.
 
Hope you had a Happy Halloween and aren't on too much of a sugar rush or crash right now.

I love a chunky cable knit sweater for cold days. They just scream cozy. And I still reach for this sweater that I picked up from Old Navy last year. Here is a similar version available this year. I added this knit infinity scarf and thought it still needed a  little more interest, so I added the necklace. Do you ever layer accessories this way?

Fair isle prints have been around for a long time but seem to be really popular this season. I've seen lots of fair isle looks on bloggers this week. I promise I'm not just jumping on the fair isle blogger bandwagon. I wore this Sunday to run errands. I've had this sweater for a couple of years, but this is the first time it's made the blog. Too often it's dark when I change into more casual clothes in the evening, so some of my outfits just never make the blog.
 
It was actually cold enough for another layer, so I threw this light field jacket on over my sweater. I like the navy/burgundy combination with the pink and grey peeking out.
 
Did you know there really is a place called Fair Isle? And the origins of these knitting patterns can be traced there.

It was in the 80's the day I wore this outfit and these burgundy jeans are a pretty thick winter weight. I was struggling not to melt away in this, but determined to wear some fall items. I was inspired by a GYPO challenge member to put these pieces together. I have no way to link to her since the forum is private, but that's the fun thing about GYPO style challenges- you get so much inspiration from real down to earth ladies.
 
I thrifted this silk camp shirt a few years back but have rarely worn it. It's one of those items that I can't part with because I keep thinking it must be a useful item and a must have, yet I struggle to style it.  Do you have those pieces in your closet?
 
So, it's 38 days to Christmas! Yikes! Have you started shopping or do you wait? If you need some ideas make sure you check out my For the Hostess ideas or any of my Saturday shopping posts.

Tone on tone

earrings- Cato
shoes- Ross- old-captoe options: here and  here  gold: option   option    option
 
The GYPO Fall Style Challenge kicks off today. This tone on tone look, created with two of fall's hottest colors, blush and marsala, is inspired by the Day 1 prompts. You could do this with two shade of any color and complete it with a scarf and gold flats. You get a shopping list and suggestions when you sign up for these challenges. I had some things in my closet already, like these flats. Mine are gold with a black cap toe so I'm subbing for the gold flats recommended in the shopping list. I also decided to go with an olive satchel purse instead of a burgundy one. I have been looking for a couple of months for a burgundy purse/tote, even before I signed up for the challenge, but later decided that I can overdo it with the burgundy/marsala/oxblood in the fall, so an olive one would be a nice compliment to all this burgundy.
