Let’s start off Monday with some great news for you girls! I’ve got a 20% OFF site wide code for Accessory Concierge for the next 48 hours! The code STMT20 will get you 20% OFF all of the jewelry on their site (and most of the jewelry you see in today’s post). They are definitely my GO TO for unique and DARLING jewelry that not everybody else has, and you will always get compliments on their pieces.
In addition to jewelry, the two perfect transitional pieces I’m talking about today (that will help bridge the gap between winter days and spring days) are a long cardigan and a denim jacket.
TRANSITIONAL PIECE #1: A LONG CARDIGAN
So I showed you my long blush cardigan (that comes in lots of other colors too) for the first time last Monday. I know lots of you took the plunge and got it for yourself, so I thought it would be fun to show you a couple of other looks with the same sweater. Because I don’t know about y’all, but I wear favorite items over and over (and over again). 🙂
Click HERE to remind yourself of the first look (with a neutral tote, dark denim, and nude flats). If you don’t love the blush color that I have (I happen to adore it), you have several others to choose from as well. The cardigan comes in regular and petite. I have the Petite Small. At just about 5’4″, I was afraid the regular size would be too long, and I was right. The petite hits above my knee, which is just how I wanted it.
Here are just some of the other colors, just click on what you are interested in:
I absolutely love this first look. I gave you a sneak peek on Friday’s post….

And here it was on me. The long cardigan feels so much more modern to me that the shorter cardis I’ve worn most of my life. (Confession, I owned an obscene amount of sweater sets during my first 10 years of marriage. I’m telling you. IT WAS OBSCENE.) 😉 The long cardigan is definitely an updated version, and don’t worry, I’m not wearing a matching shell underneath. These lush tees are actually perfect for layering (and I love the Madewell tees too).
And remember, use the code STMT20 for 20% OFF the necklace and the rest of your A.C. order. This sunrise tassel necklace is my new favorite for sure. It’s like the perfect combination of my favorite agate necklace from a couple of years ago and my tassel necklace from last year. It’s really long (you can compare the length later on in a side by side with my other necklaces), but I like having some of my necklaces this length. The colors are so bright and cheery!

And the booties. I recommend ordering a 1/2 size down for the perfect fit.
I highly recommend the ones above, but here are some other perforated peep toe booties for you to check out!
For the next look with the long cardi, I changed up my jeans, jewelry, and shoes. The denim is a lot lighter in person than it is showing in the picture, and I switched out the peep toe booties for wedge booties. As you can see, this necklace is shorter than the one show above. It’s also fancier! All of the beads are different colors (and gorgeous), and the agate is surrounded with pave “diamonds”. It’s so pretty!

I’ve had these wedge booties since the fall, and I love them so much! The ties on the back are just for looks, they zip up on the side.
Here’s a close up of the necklace. Look how pretty the beads, the agate, and the pave stones are!
TRANSITIONAL PIECE #2: A GREAT DENIM JACKET
In addition to a cardi being a great transition piece, so is my MUST HAVE denim jacket. Here’s what’s so great about it: it’s soft, stretchy, and not boxy at all. Probably the opposite of the denim jacket you had back in 1994. 😉 I named this jacket a MUST HAVE 3 years ago, and it’s still going strong in my wardrobe. Several readers have told me that they now own the stonewashed, the dark denim, and the white denim. It’s also great over maxi dresses and other summer casual dresses.
This turquoise necklace is a bit different than what I usually wear (since I most often go with a pendant or tassel), but I really love this one. And I think it will be perfect for maxi dresses, cover ups, and all of those white summer tops we like to wear.

And the peacock pave necklace!

Here they all are, side by side! This gives you a really good idea of the varying lengths of the necklaces. The code STMT20 gets you 20% OFF all of them.

And here is one more A.C. necklace and outfit (that you saw last month). And you’ll see this necklace again later this week as well.

Now, since y’all have a 48 hour 20% OFF code, you need to make sure you take advantage. I haven’t seen these earrings in person, but look how cute! Click HERE for the earrings! HELLO, BEACH VACATION!
And click HERE for these SUPER light weight earrings with a Moroccan feel! These came in the mail late Friday afternoon, when I had already changed into a tee and my new lounging pants from Gap, but that didn’t stop me from taking a picture. You seriously won’t believe how light they are, and with the code, they will only be $14.40!!!
And if you need an Accessory Concierge review, here you go. First off, the items I highlighted in today’s post:
And some other pieces I am absolutely LOVING.
If y’all have anything in the post today (ex. the must have jacket, the long cardi, the lush tee, the peep toe booties, or pieces from Accessory Concierge), I’d love for you to leave your thoughts! See y’all back here on Wednesday for my Bachelor recap.
Erika Slaughter says
All those pieces are so cute…the necklaces, THOSE fun earrings, your cushion cut bracelet but the star of the show was those white jeans. I kept getting distracted by the jeans.
Shay Shull says
I am loving the long cardigans right now! Annnnnnd…I’m off to use that code. Woohoo!
Stephanie says
I have the must have denim jacket in 2 colors, a military jacket, and lots of pieces from Accessory Concierge. And you’re right, I always get so many compliments on them!
Narci says
Those fan earrings are darling!!!
lauren says
I agree with you 100% about the denim jacket. I have two as well. When I got the first one I couldn’t believe how soft and stretchy it was, so then I got the dark denim too and I wear them both often. And I laughed out loud about the sweater sets comment. I probably had 10 myself. All color coordinating.
Christina says
Such cute outfits. You’ve talked me into the cardigan! I stopped wearing the shorter ones as I started to feel like they were dated. I have the denim jacket (wore it yesterday and again today), must have boots and several AC pieces. The fan earrings might be my next purchase.
Stephanie says
Accessory Concierge is one of my favorite places for funky jewelry! I got a long necklace with charms from them about a year ago that I get so many compliments on. Thanks for the code!

Every time I see those beaded necklaces, I can’t help but think that it looks like a kid made it…
Sheaffer says
Hi, Morgan! Oh, I don’t think so at all! Now, if they were plastic beads, I would totally get that. But these are gorgeous stone beads, wooden beads, etc….and they are so pretty in real life! Still, to each their own! Chokers are all the rage right now, and I just can’t seem to get behind them. Even thought I know that most certainly makes me not on trend. But I’m okay with that. 🙂 xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
cassie {hi sugarplum} says
It’s all so dang cute on you, and I’m crazy about those fan earrings!!!
Kate says
How cute would those fan earrings be for end of the year teacher gifts? Perfect for a start to summer gift. Also, LOVE the white jeans!!
Erin says
I got a denim jacket last year at your suggestion and it’s perfect!! I got a white one this year to spruce up my spring wardrobe without having to add too many extra items!!
Amy says
I bought the long cardi in the blush and a beautiful mustard gold color. They are awesome! The weight is wonderful especially for this Southern California gal. I am 5’10 and it hits me just right! Yay! Thank you for the recommendation.
Shawnee says
LOVE the necklaces, especially the colors of the one in your first outfit but it is just too long. I can’t wear a necklace that hangs at the top of my jeans. And I think I’m the only one that can’t get into the long cardigan trend.
MelanieL says
I LOVE the Must Have denim jacket! I’m so glad I bought it as instructed…among other things! 🙂
Andrea Johnson says
YAY! I’ve been looking for a screw bangle bracelet thanks so much for sharing!
Christi says
Hi Sheaffer! Any chance you know if the Lush tunic will come back in stock? I followed your suggestion and bought it in 2 colors awhile back, and it is now out of stock in every color! I’m devastated. It’s my favorite shirt!! A must have!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Christi! Can you give me an item number? What I am looking at appears to be stocked in most colors! xoxo, Sheaffer
Christi says
Thanks for getting back to me. The shirt is the Lush Perfect Roll tab Sleeve Tunic from your must haves list. When I follow the link above, it says it’s no longer in stock. Here is the item number: 1093900
Christi says
Hi again. I figured out the problem. When I follow the direct link from your site, it says they are out. But, when I used the Nordstrom site’s search feature, it came up easily. Sorry for the confusion! Ordered 2 more colors! And, they are still on sale, btw! Woot!
Sheaffer says
Glad you found them,Christi! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Cheryl says
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!❤️
Love these outfits and often “run” to your site for fashion advice, thank you.
Quick question: what are YOU wearing for your night out tonight??? Would love to see it -I’m betting other ladies out there would too ????????
Sheaffer says
Hi, Cheryl! We are staying in! So I’m thinking I’ll be wearing pajamas! 🙂 xoxo
Elizabeth wheaton says
I purchased the cardigan last week b/c it looked so cute on you…but it ran SO big in my opinion…or maybe I just got a dud. I’m an 8P so I ordered the medium P and it was huge…my “non fashion” husband even said so…I’m exchanging for the SP, but just wanted to give you some feedback! 🙂
Suzanne says
I ordered a MP as well, and I returned mine because it looked so bad! It was huge and not flattering at all. I’m only 5’2, so I think it might look better on someone taller. I have a similar long cardigan from Nordstrom that is rounded, that is my go-to as it seems to work better on my body. On another note, I’m wearing my black sweatshirt, Hue charcoal leggings and wedge Uggs today – a complete Sheaffer outfit that I love!!!!
