Outfit: Lipstick: c/o Laura Mercier “Sin” / Earrings: c/o Twisted Silver “Twilight” / Necklace: c/o Twisted Silver “Twilight” / Tank Top: Mossimo / Sweater: Carmen by Carmen Marc Valvo (on sale!) / Belt: Prada / Pants: Gap / Handbag: Chloe / Nail Polish: Chanel Alchemie / Boots: c/o Joie

Twisted Silver has done it again! With beads in shades of grey and a warm heart set on antique brass, the new “Twilight: collection from Twisted Silver is perfect for fall! The necklace can be worn several different ways; four of which are shown above. With this outfit I wore the necklace with the clasp in back. The clasp can also be worn in front and adjusted to any length to create a y-necklace. Love that!

Of course like many of Twisted Silver’s necklaces, the “Twilight” necklace can also be worn as a bracelet. I love wearing it as a bracelet with 3/4 length sleeves or short sleeves.

The “Twilight” collection is dainty, which is right in line with the current runway and street trend toward dainty jewelry. The neutral colors make the collection easy to wear with fall 2013’s color palette. Love!

I paired Twisted Silver’s new “Twilight” collection with my favorite pair of khaki’s and a comfortable lace cardigan sweater by Carmen by Carmen Marc Valvo. The booties, which are incredibly soft and comfortable, were a fun way to mix berry hues with the tank top. This was perfect on a recent warm fall day here in the San Francisco Bay Area.

There is something intriguing about mixing edgy, rocker chic studs with feminine, vintage cameos. This is what drove me to pair Twisted Silver’s new “Empire” necklace with my favorite studded fall handbag from Rebecca Minkoff in the above photos.
The new “Empire” necklace from Twisted Silver features beautiful and colorful vintage cameos. The cameos are set in brass with a pearl-like ball at the bottom of the piece which adds a little feminine, yet sassy, flair to the overall necklace. Love that!
Twisted Silver’s new “Empire” necklace works perfectly with fall 2013’s trends. Fall is all about rocker chic details, a little bit of grunge and feminine silhouettes; everything the “Empire” necklace embodies. Perfection!

Outfit: Earrings: c/o Twisted Silver / Lipstick: c/o Laura Mercier “Sin” / Scarf: Karl Lagerfeld / Blazer: c/o Wallis / Blouse: 7 for all mankind / Jeans: Gap / Handbag: Rebecca Minkoff / Nail Polish: Chanel Bel-Argus / Bracelets: Tory Burch & Beau Bijou / Shoes: Prada

You may remember this Wallis blazer from my previous article about it last week, if not, please click here. When Wallis sent me the blazer, they challenged me to style it for summer and fall. I was happy to take on that challenge since the lightweight material and cool grey color make the blazer perfect for the transition from summer into fall.

For my fall look, I paired the blazer with wine hued coated jeans and an edgy, studded handbag by Rebecca Minkoff. I love the overall look and was happy to have a foggy day over the weekend to actually wear a fall look! The blazer was perfect until the fog burned off in the early afternoon and I had to take it off. The blazer came back on when the sun began to set and the fog was about to roll back into the valley over the Santa Cruz Mountains.

This blazer also comes in black and a  beautiful shade of cobalt blue. I am seriously thinking about getting both! The fabric and style are perfect for the transition from summer into fall. To top it off, the blazer is perfect for the micro-climate’s we have here in the San Francisco Bay Area. After all, it can be 90 degree’s in the south bay in late June, and if you drive into San Francisco, temperatures can drop to 60 degree’s. We all need a lightweight blazer for that!

If you like how I styled this blazer from Wallis, please vote for me in a contest Wallis is holding on their Facebook page. They are looking for a Brand Ambassador for New York Fashion Week! Thank you so much for your support and for being absolutely fabulous!
