I love clubs. Book Clubs, social clubs, cooking clubs, secret-password-only-bar clubs, night clubs, Sam's Club... all of em. Whether I can get into the club or not, I always want in. These days in fashion the choker club is a real thing. Ok well not like a real real thing, but more of a thing than me just making it up to clever. Fenton/Fallon has officially dubbed their's the "Fallon Choker Club" and North West is a member so.... there's that.

I've been gravitating more toward the glam chokers than the solid fabric ones. The 90's trend quite literally brings me back to middle school and I'm not totally into it. Instead, I love the sparkly take that makes it modern, fresh, and a little more elevated now that I'm no longer 14. Only problem is... $$$. Yes, buying up diamond chokers gets a pricey and unless you have a money tree growing out on your balcony (which I don't) buying something so expensive that's "trendy" is a big waste. Thankfully, I'm a member of the Under $100 Club too and found some amazing ones for prices just as chic as the chokers themselves! (I've already ordered 3 of these!)

This screen shot was taking a while ago when I knew fall weather was ahead and I'd need some outfit ideas. As New Yorkers, there are very few opportunities to truly dress in a seasonally transitional look. We go straight to cold from hot and then back again... there's not much in between. But sometimes there are a few great Fall days, like recently, when you can dress like a Californian and mix your warm clothing with your cool. My absolute favorite California cool blogger and style inspiration is Sincerely Jules. She can pull off cashmere and cutoffs like no one other, and never misses when it comes to finishing with a great bag and the perfect 1/2 tuck. Clearly, she's the perfect Screen Shot Steal for something like this!

My version here is a maternity/pregnant version but the look can work on anyone and can easily be found in your closet!
