Good morning and happiest of Wednesdays to you all of you. If you find yourself completely ahead of schedule for tomorrow’s festivities and are ready to do a little shopping, this post is for you. If you are sick of prepping for tomorrow and need a little hostess brain break, this post is for you. If you just love fashion and jewels regardless of what else is happening in your life then this post is definitely for you too.
Today I want to show you my favorite Stella pieces for winter, many of which are on sale or will be on sale this coming Black Friday. (NOTE: make sure you join my Black Friday online trunk show at 10:00 AM. Let me know in the comments below if you want an invite.)
These are pieces I have ADORED this fall and I believe will take you through the holidays and a bitter cold January in the ultimate of Stella Style. These are the pieces that make up my capsule jewelry wardrobe and I have them on constant rotation this fall.
1.) Giverny Embroidered Necklace
The best thing about this necklace is how cool it looks with both a t-shirt and a silk dress. Most wouldn’t think an over-the-top bejeweled bib necklace would/should be paired with a t-shirt…but I am here to tell you that absolutely it can be. This necklace is backed in genuine leather. It especially pairs well with white, cream and on the runway it was shown with peach.
2.) Reese Sparkle Necklace//Odeon Chandeliers
Both of these pieces can be worn multiple ways. The leather detail of the necklace is so en trend. It can be classic and lady-like when the stones are showing, or edgy and modern when the leather is spotlighted. The Odeon Chandeliers are probably my favorite drama earring for fall. The vivid, bright green stone displays just the right amount of color. Whether you wear it with or without the tassel, the flash of color is fresh and lively. I don’t always wear these two pieces together, but let’s be honest, this duo is dynamic!

Paired with the Double Wrap Gilded Bracelet worn as a choker.
3.) Odeon Pendant Necklace//Rachelle Tassel Chandeliers
This is another duo that I often pair together. The Odeon Pendant Necklace is such a showstopping statement necklace. I remember watching it come down the runway at the fashion show in July and could NOT wait to get it home and style it. True to typical Stella & Dot style, the pendant can be removed leaving the leather embellished collar to be worn alone.
The Rachelle Chandeliers are the ULTIMATE statement earring for this time of year. I love that they can be worn with a little black dress and booties for a holiday party, or even with jeans and a silk blouse for a work lunch.
Who doesn’t love a lariat? Can I tell you my favorite way to wear this one? Tied close around the neck in a choker style with the long tails hanging down the back. I wore it like this over a black midi-dress in Napa a few weeks ago for a wine tasting at Robert Craig. How cool to save the style drama for when you exit a room?
5.) Park Slope Scarf
Guys, can we talk about how fantastic animal print is? It is one of those patterns that accents just about every ensemble with style and versatility. This scarf is darling with my everyday uniform of skinnies, booties and a striped top; and also looks very chic as a wrap over an LBD. Your wardrobe needs this.
Now that our weather is cooling off, I hope this little fall style guide helps you to build a little capsule jewelry collection of your own.
