Summer is my season.  The light fabrics, brighter colors, and all-around more carefree feel is fantastic.  That said, there’s something about the golden light of fall that’s so beautiful.  I love the jewel tones that come out in the fall.  It isn’t the dark black and endless gray of winter, but it isn’t the in-your-face punch of color of summer.

It also is the perfect time to bust out cranberry-matte lips and leather.  I feel like my most bad-ass self in the fall.

So I figured today’s Creative Closet prompt is a perfect time to come out of outfit-sharing hibernation.

Nothing compliments jewel tones quite like some jewels.  You know my favorite way to dress up an outfit is to add a little sparkle.  And damn is this ring sparkly.

I’ve been looking for a great eternity band to wear and I love this ring from Anjolee.  Their anniversary rings are stunning and super comfortable, even though the U setting has some height to it.  And this is just further proof that you don’t need to wait around for someone to buy you something shiny – go out and get it yourself.

Although if you need to give someone a little push…go ahead and bookmark the shiz out of that page.

I love the amethyst pop to contrast with the emerald shirt.  It isn’t an obvious pop, but it’s enough of a statement that I don’t really wear other jewels when I have this ring on.

I also can’t get enough of this lipstick.  It’s my first ColourPop Lippie Stix shade and I looooove it.  Like, “I want to wear this even when I’m just hanging out around the house” love it.

Truly embracing my inner rebel with this outfit.

How do you add some fall into your outfits?  Any other lovers of jewel tones?
