Monthly Musing: Emerald City


Emerald City

As the snow continues to flurry around you, what better way to channel your inner warmth than with a smooth, radiating hint of emerald? Sure, this jewel tone may have reigned as 2014's "it" pantone color, but after seeing this hot hue all over '15 runways, team SA doesn't plan to leave Emerald City anytime soon. Fuel your adventurous soul with evergreen-inspired wardrobe pieces to give you a mountain chic aura. Embellish your living spaces and gatherings with this natural shade to help you and your guests feel relaxed and refreshed the moment they walk through the door.

We don’t plan on missing our chance to embrace the cool season with this energizing shade, are you with us? 

Monthly Musing: Mad For Plaid


SA Monthly Musing Mad for Plaid

As the temps begin the drop, we are {happily} noticing that squares, checks and tartans are among a few of the season's most definitive prints. Although, the timeless print is no longer preferred by the preppy or reserved for collegiate. This cool-weather compadre has been updated and will surely be spotted around town.

Infuse it in your holiday party with a heritage-prep inspired invite or put a warm, patterned touch on your mid-century modern bedroom. Style mavens, channel your inner-Cher {clueless, duh!} and rock a plaid pair of pumps or bundle up with scarf for a cozy-polished look.

Whether you opt for traditional tartan or minimalist and monochromatic, plaid is the pattern that will carry us through these chilly coming months!

Watch the leaves change colors and embrace fall’s savory flavors in a shearling shrug-- this month’s "it" textile. The fabulous fur doesn’t need to be limited to vests, throws or your go-to Ugg boots. Embrace the coziness and warmth shearling brings by picking up some unique accessories, home décor or fashion pieces. Shearling can even be the unexpected finishing touch to a fall wedding!
