We love the swingy silhouette of this MM Couture jacket from III's Company in Russellville. The scooped neck and cropped sleeves are the ideal fusion of classic and contemporary, and it's the perfect weight to carry you through the entire Arkansas winter.

The detailing is the star of Elie Tahari's black leather blazer from Feinstein's in Little Rock. The chic, curve-enhancing jacket is shaped by row after row of sleek seaming, enhanced by touches of sheer fabric at each edge.

In bright yellow leather, this oversized Tano bag has plenty of space for all your essential items. With both a short and a long strap, it easily converts into a messenger bag that's both stylish and eye catching. Available at Lefler's in Conway.

From Minx in Little Rock, this double-handled bag's weathered gray color transitions easily between outfits and events, but the real treat is the buttery soft leather. Designer Lesa Wallace has decked the bag out in a myriad of buckles and zippers for a hard-edged twist.
