Fair Isle Charm - Penny Pincher Fashion

I’m honored to announce today that I’ve signed on as a brand ambassador for Charming Charlie! Over the next few months, I will be sharing some of my favorite pieces here on the blog & also hosting an exciting event at their flagship store in NYC in December (more details coming soon!). If you’re not yet familiar with them, Charming Charlie has over 350 retail stores across the US, Canada & Middle East with a wide range of affordable jewelry, handbags, accessories, clothing & shoes. What I love about their store is that everything is laid out so beautifully and organized by color, which makes it easy to find exactly what you’re looking for right when you walk in! As I was browsing, this gorgeous fair isle pattern caught my eye and I knew it would be the perfect dress for the upcoming holidays. I decided to layer a chambray shirt underneath and top it off with this faux fur vest. Though the dress is beautiful enough to stand on its own, the contrast of these different textures just felt right for the season.

When it comes to jewelry, I am loving everything in their delicates line. I like that you can easily mix & match different pieces and layer on as many as you like. Their ring sets & pavé designs look so much more expensive in person & they are perfect for adding a little sparkle to your outfit. I stacked up a few of my favorites to create a statement effect and went with modern pearl earrings to finish the look. They also have an amazing selection of buffalo plaid right now and this wristlet was too cute to pass up. My daughter quickly claimed it as her own after we took these pictures, so I’ll be heading back to get the larger tote for myself!

Charming Charlie is currently running an exciting giveaway from now until December 14th. To participate, all you have to do is style yourself in your favorites from Charming Charlie, snap a selfie & post it to Instagram, Twitter or Facebook.
