Ever Ivy is a fabulous brand designed by San Francisco Bay Area designer Liliana Ventura and made right here in California. I love how the pieces take inspiration from our culturally diverse and politically complicated landscape. The day-into-evening collection features neutrals and prints made from soft fabrics; which are not only nice to the touch, but incredibly comfortable!

I absolutely love the Audrey Dress by Ever Ivy worn in the photos above. There is a “1960’s meets modern day vibe” to the dress which makes it easy to wear with current accessories. This dress is perfect for a date night with my husband, or a girls night out! When the weather cools down as we move towards winter, the Audrey Dress by Ever Ivy will look amazing paired with tights and lug soled high heels. I’m looking forward to wearing it in different ways according to the occasion and weather!

Kendra Scott’s jewelry collection has been around for several years, yet I have never really looked too deep into the collection. When Kendra Scott previewed her fall 2014 collection at the RewardStyle party during New York Fashion Week, I was thrilled to get an up-close look at a beautiful jewelry collection I had never really looked at before. The fall 2014 collection featured classic and colorful pieces which are a trademark of Kendra Scott’s long-term collection. Her fall 2014 collection also featured on-trend items such as the bracelet pictured above and the amazing ring featured in these photos. There were so many beautiful pieces from Kendra Scott’s fall 2014 collection showcased at the event, that I now have a mile-long wish list of pieces I would like to buy! Now, all I need is a money tree in my backyard so that I can afford all my fall “wants!” Such is life. . .

My Kendra Scott fall 2014 collection wish list items are in the shopping widget below. Which pieces do you love?

Fall is the perfect season for wearing a sweater dress. Sweater dresses are ideal in the autumn season since they offer a little bit more warmth than flat fabrics. I originally purchased this Rebecca Minkoff sweater dress in August to bring to New York for fashion week. It was in my suitcase and I could not wait to wear it to Lincoln Center to watch the shows. Unfortunately, the weather in New York was over 90 degrees with humidity to match. This was NOT sweater dress weather. <sigh>

Alas, the sweater dress came home with me unworn. Since my return from New York, I have been staring at this sweater dress in my closet, begging to be worn! Thankfully, after a month of 80 and 90 degree weather, we had a little bit of fall weather over the weekend. This meant I was able to finally wear my new sweater dress on Sunday! Yay!

Have you ever purchased something, and then, due to the weather, not been able to wear it right away? If so, do tell!
