Trend Watch Wednesday: {Accessories Worth Falling For}

1. Fendi 'Fendista' Shearling Bootie; 2. Fern Print Scarf by Stella McCartney; 3. BCBG Max Azria Collar Necklace; 4. Edie Italian Calf Skin Satchel by J.Crew; 5. Aurora Cocktail Ring by Stella & Dot

Oh, accessories...how much I love thee...

There are so many amazing 'sessories (as one of my friends calls them) in stores this season, my head is literally spinning with styling ideas. I'm in love with the chunky cocktail rings and paper weight sized pendants dominating the jewelry scene. The colorful, Aztec-inspired scarves well worth the money they cost. And the satchels...oh dear me, the satchels...



I know they've been around for a while, but the monogram necklaces from Max and Chloe are still high on my wishlist. I'm still torn on whether I'd go for gold or settle on silver, but I'm really wishing one or the other was hanging on my necklace tree.

Speaking of fabulous accessories...



I recently had the chance to visit Versona Accessories, which just opened at our local outdoor mall. The lovely girls at their corporate office were so sweet and sent me a $25 gift card to spend on whatever I wanted at their Grand Opening!



I used by gift card on this fab pair of Oxford Booties and this chunky, beaded garnet bracelet, just perfect for Hogs' games. If you've never been to a Versona store, I'd highly suggest doing so asap! They have everything from shoes and jewelry, to clothing and gift items. Everything was super affordable and trendy, making it a great place for Christmas shopping!

What are some of your favorite accessories you've seen this fall?


P.S.- The finalists for the Pie in the Sky contest were drawn at random last night using Random.org. Entries were placed in an Excel spreadsheet and assigned a number in the order in which they were emailed. The finalists are:

#51- Anna M. - Salted Caramel Cheesecake Pie
#70- Emmie D. - Grandma's Apple Pie
#42- Emily J. - Grandma Elsie's Kentucky Derby Pie



I'll be baking these up at the end of the week and a panel of random judges (a.k.a. friends we'll be seeing this weekend + my husband) will pick their favorite! The winner will be announced on Monday. Thanks to everyone that submitted an entry - I'm saving all of these in my recipe box for future pie dilemmas!

Be blessed, lovelies-
