I recently read a quote from Nina Garcia about buying wisely for fall. She says “building a well-balanced, versatile wardrobe takes time and thought… it isn’t a sprint—it’s a marathon.” I’ve fallen in the impulsive buying trap time after time so this year I’m making a conscious effort to spend money on versatile pieces that I won’t regret buying later. I recently bought this Theyskens’ Theory blouse that I’ve already worn multiple ways. And it’s a perfect piece to transition from season to season.

*Be sure to check out Jennifer Fisher’s Barney’s New York Co-op collection here. Gothic letter charms, chunky cuffs, lightening bolts and more make up an incredibly cool assortment of brass and gold pieces. I’ve been loving my flat circle bangles but also have my eye on this dainty chain bracelet with an “s” initial.
