Sade's September Fascinations

The Bridal Circle

Here are my September Fascinations! Enjoy!

1.  Make a statement this September in Alexander McQueen’s sensational wool and cashmere-blend coat.  We adore the structured fit that accentuates the waist– you’re sure to stop traffic!

2.  Sexy.  Subtle.  Sleek.  Zuhair Murad’s exceptional sense of style is elegantly embodied in this gown.  We love every intricate detail… and those beautifully billowing statement sleeves!

3.  Hematite, diamonds and sterling, o my!  Slip this gorgeously-crafted ring from David Yurman on for size, and you won’t want to take it off!

4. We love this sterling silver and glossy ceramic bangle from David Yurman!  The links make it feel heavy enough for fall, but the array of textures and subtle color give this bracelet a playful air.  Perfect to liven up your office ensemble!

5.  An array of gray diamonds is expertly showcased in this pair of earrings by Loree Rodkin.  Inspired by medieval tracery, these dangling works of art are most beautifully revealed when worn with a simple updo.

6.  We can’t wait to delve into Stylists: New Fashion Visionaries by Katie Baron!  Examine the industry’s evolution with this inspiring tome, chock-full of glossy ads, editorial images and the most gorgeous of runway photography.

7.  La Tulipe Eau de Parfum is perfect for this time of year when the summer begins to fade and the crisp scent of autumn breezes in.  Fresh and floral-y, with the subtle addition of warm, earthy undertones.

8.  You’ll be the picture of femininity in this beautiful Tilton wool-blend crepe skirt from Roksanda Ilinic.  The gentle sway of the skirt reveals contrasting hues of blush and coral.  Lovely when paired with a silk button-up blouse!

9.  J.W. Anderson’s Boiled Wool Crewneck is quite possibly our favorite sweater of the season! Cozy with a stylishly-fitted cut, this sweater can be dressed down with jeans or paired with a pencil skirt for the office.  The soft gray hue is beautifully versatile as well!

10.  We couldn’t have dreamed up a more gorgeous pair of slacks ourselves!  Needless to say, these pleated front wide slacks from Prabal Gurung are one of our autumn staples.  We adore the tuxedo stripe!  It’s the little things that make you fall in love, after all.

11-12. Everything is more beautiful when it’s Marchesa!  The gorgeously-envisioned details on this Empire Pearl and Indigo cup and plate have us pining for an elegant high tea.  Won’t you join us? Tea Cup and Plate

13.  One can never have too many scarves, and we especially suggest you add this beautiful fine knit modal and silk-blend selection to your repertoire!  The femininity of the blush hue is paired with Alexander McQueen’s iconic skull motif, creating a fresh and fun juxtaposition.

14.  We love these effortlessly elegant pumps from Jimmy Choo!  Classy and beautifully crafted from supple leather of a greenish-gray hue, they’ll definitely take you places.

15.  Ruffles!  This printed silk-chiffon top from Prabal Gurung captures our hearts with its unexpected neckline and uber-feminine ruffled sleeves.

16.  Paraben-free and with 82% natural products, Chantecaille’s Rose Eye Makeup Remover is one of our favorites for sensitive eyes.  Non-oily, and with a rejuvenating scent, we can’t think of a more refreshing way to soothe tired eyes at the end of the day.

17.  Perfect to bridge the gap between work and weekend!  Lanvin’s always masterfully-crafter leather shopper will last a lifetime and serve you well, wherever your adventures may carry you this fall!

18-19. Carine Gilson’s Sonia lace-appliquéd silk-satin lingerie set is beautifully crafted.  Detailed with the finest gray lace and artfully appliquéd, you will feel as luxurious as you look.  Pair the dainty chemise with the matching and equally luxuriant robe. Silk-Satin Chemise and Robe

20.  Our autumnal selections for nail lacquer!  Ivory and Gris Montaigne. From Dior, naturally.

21.  Marchesa clutch.  Soft grays to complement our muted fall palette and with bejeweled details at the closure.  Golden detail.  Perfect, pretty and neat.

22.  If September had a flavor, we’d chose this:  Death by Hot Chocolate.  Snuggle up and enjoy a tasty blend of white and milk chocolates, topped with marshmallow, for a relaxing evening with a good read and your favorite afghan.

23.  Perfect reversible tote made of leather and suede from Saint Laurent.  One of our staple faves!

Happy Shopping!
