When Fossil reached out to me about participating in their new fall campaign, I knew I wanted to pair my new bag and watch with this fun fringe tunic.  The blue and white is right up my alley and the fringe is a great way to stay on trend for fall.

I tend to forget about tunics; I know so many people love to style them with leggings for fall, but I still am not fully on the leggings as pants train {I know guys, I know!}  Since I’m a big believer in wearing items and styling in a way that you feel comfortable in {the best style tip I can give you is also the simplest}, I paired this fun tribal inspired tunic with distressed jeans for a laid-back weekend look.

The crossbody makes this the perfect outfit to run errands or head to brunch in.  The studs and tassel detail on this new style from Fossil make it a piece that’s trendy, but I really love that the deep color of the leather makes it a bag that you can use for years.  I’ve been needing to replace my mini saddlebag that I snagged years ago, so I’m really happy to add this sturdy, genuine leather bag to my collection just because I know it’s one that I’ll constantly reach for.

Despite what everyone else will try and tell you, summer is not over {I did buy my first sweater of the season this week though #yikes}, so I pulled out my turquoise tassel necklace to add some more color into this look.  I get asked pretty frequently if I actually use watches or just wear them as an accessory; I’m a huge fan of watches, y’all!  Love them. Seriously. I know it’s the 21st century but I’m still the girl that prefers a physical planner to an online calendar. Pulling my phone out to check the time or date isn’t always appropriate depending on setting, so having a watch on makes my life a lot simpler.  I also love watches that have date windows because I can never tell you what day it is and frequently need to date things.
