Assistant Obsessions: Pre-Fall Prep

As Lucky assistants, we see it all. This week, we're starting to prep our fall wardrobes and have devised a little equation to get the most out of our budgets. One great jacket + one great accessory = all you need to totally transform the looks that are already in your closet. Pick up a utility jacket and a statement necklace, or a floral blazer and great new bag, and you're totally ready for the weather to turn chilly.

I love this new take on the motorcycle jacket. The ornate embroidery is a refreshing break from leather.

I'm obsessed with this New York label. I generally love a nautical/pirate theme—Digby & Iona somehow make it feel romantic. I want everything!

I'm planning to go grunge this fall, and swooning at the thought of this jacket on top of ankle length jeans and Dr. Martens.

Ever since we put together the Coach Legacy Lucky Breaks opener, I've been dying for a little leather treat of my own. This tote is not only functional (the inside pockets can fit my whole life), but it is insanely chic as well.

I love this Alexia Leigh necklace. Its size, the rose gold, the fact you can wear it two ways—all perfect!

Even though September is quickly approaching, I am SO reluctant to give up my summer brights! Added bonus: BCBG Generation's end of season sale makes it so much easier to buy these neon beauties.

Okay, clearly I'm obsessed with leather right now because aside from a new tote, I'm totally in the market for a new jacket. AllSaints' version is so sick- perfect with an all black outfit and pair of biker boots!
