Y’all, if you had told me a few years ago I would’ve worn a bell sleeved peasant top, ripped jeans and a grosgrain ribbon choker necklace all in one outfit, I would’ve laughed at you and said, “even though I’m a 90s baby, that trend is not coming back anytime soon”… little did I know!

I am a huge fan of the bell sleeve trend; channeling my momma from the 70s! Sometimes when items are super trendy, if I’m not sure I want to completely invest in the trend I look for pieces that are less expensive and more budget-friendly. That way, if I’m not a huge fan of the trend on me after all, then I won’t feel as bad with a lesser investment.

Enter the ever popular grosgrain ribbon choker necklace. Who knew I would be donning one of these numbers decades after my Spice Girls phase! I absolutely love the simplicity though of this grosgrain ribbon choker necklace. I know it will be a chic statement with a lot of outfits and looks great when I wear my hair up in a high ponytail or top knot.

I’m excited to share with you today a new capsule collection in collaboration with StyleWatch and Charming Charlie. This collection features some of the hottest, must-have fall trends – there are 60 items available both online and in stores for a limited time only!

The capsule, created in collaboration with the fashion editors at StyleWatch allows real gals, like you and I, to grab key trends at accessible price points.

Accessories like a classic hobo lock bag that comes with a chic two-in-one option for the girl on the go, and the sleek watch that takes you from day to night.

I’m also loving the bold red, a super on trend color for fall, in pieces like these hexagon stone dangle earrings and this turnlock crossbody convertible wallet.

This post is brought to you in partnership with StyleWatch x Charming Charlie. All opinions are my own. Thanks for supporting the brands that help make Girl Wonder Life possible.

    I’m loving this bell sleeve trend, but I don’t really have any shirts with it so I’m guessing I’ll have to rectify this and get a few 😉 xx Adaleta Avdic

      Hi Katie, to be honest, I’m not sure because I work with a photographer. I can ask her and get back to you!
