If you don’t already own a blanket scarf, now is the time! Seize the moment! There are so many great affordable options and they scream Fall.
I don’t often wear color but Oliver Bilou had asked me to try out their new handbag line to give my opinions. I figured it was a good opportunity to try something outside my safe zone. In all honestly i love this bag! It’s a great size and high quality. Did I mention they donate a portion of their sales to charity??? Before I forget you can get 10% orders on their site using code PINTERESTINGPLANS.
Years ago I used to carry a handbag full of junk. Lots of lipgloss, kleenex, hair ties, gum, etc. These days I most often carry a wallet phone case instead of a bulky handbag so a bag is more like an accessory to my outfit. This allows me to switch my bags up to coordinate with an outfit without having to transfer 2 dozen miscellaneous objects. I like that this bag doesn’t let you carry anything oversized. An oversized bag would mean I am carrying my family’s belongings for them.
I love lace tops. The one pictured is older but this one looks nearly identical. My denim is also a few years old so I found a similar pair.
What are your favorite Fall accessories? I also love Fall hats!
If you like blue bags I linked some others at a higher price point for your viewing pleasure (the Tory bags are currently 30% off):
I’m also showcasing some gorgeous and affordable blanket scarves for those who might need one in their collection:

September 27, 2016 at 12:21 pmI’m the same way about colored purses. I love them but just prefer to spend my money on a neutral. But blue can really go with so much!
