If there were a goddess of fall, this necklace would be her style!  Since I don’t know of one, we’ll just have to do our best and channel our inner fall goddess and plan 2 outfits around this stellar necklace!  Jackie from Living After Midnight and I had no problem with the challenge!

I SO called this one, shades of burgundy, wine, oxblood, etc, being the IT color for fall.  I was claiming it all last year, which means by the time it hit production it is all over everywhere this year!  What’s awesome about these shades are they look good on everyone, reminiscent of fall and a way to wear a bold color without being, well, too bold!

I worked the IT color into my outfit in 3 ways:

1.  A punch of color with a statement piece in the mark. Style Goddess Necklace

2.  All over color with the mark. Fit Right In Skinny Pants

3.  Just a touch with the mark. Mosaic Detail Earrings (wearing the burgundy ones from the set of 2), and with my lip color in mark. Make It Rich Lip Pencil in Royal

Total look:  mark. Fit Right In Skinny Pants ($34), Express cutout mock neck top (old), mark. Style Goddess Necklace ($50), mark. Stellar Style Bracelet, mark. Mosaic Detail Earrings ($20 set of 2), mark. Straight Up Sassy Heels (in and out of clearance, contact for more details), mark. Super Flash Cosmetic Bag ($12), mark. Make It Rich Lip Crayon in Royal ($11 — for my full makeup look check back for my next post!), Essie Cashmere Bathrobe (on nails).  Available at my eBoutique.

Just pick one of the 3 ways to work some wine friendly hues into your fall looks… or do what I did and wear all 3 ways!  Be sure to check out Jackie at Living After Midnight‘s full post to see how she weaved the IT color into her fall look.  You can shop my look at my eBoutique and be sure to check back for my next post on how to get my “wine with everything” makeup look.
