Fashion Friday: Mixing Textures and Prints

Fashion Friday: Mixing Textures and Prints

Hello Everyone! Not only is it Friday, but it’s the Friday before a three day weekend. Aka one of the best long weekends of the year, MDW. So, I’ll start the weekend off right, with an outfit inspiration for you! I chose this outfit because it’s so classic and neutral. I mixed black and cream, while also mixing polka dots and lace.

How To: Fun Earring

How To: Fun Earring

Summer is the perfect time to start adding in statement pieces into your jewelry collection. It’s also a great time to experiment with bigger “fun” earrings. It was hard for me at first to wear large earrings. I always used to wear diamond studs; it was literally all I wore for quite some time. I first started wearing fun earrings when I found myself constantly admiring them on other people. I also started to feel like my outfits sometimes needed some color, or were missing something, and I couldn’t necessarily fix it with a necklace. So comes the fun earring. These…

Just another Manic Monday..

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Are you ready for Monday? I’m most certainly drinking a LARGE cup of coffee as I write this.

I think it’s human nature to fight these changes, to hold on to what we already know. Today, I challenge you to…

Fashion Friday: The Playsuit

Fashion Friday: The Playsuit

Finally, it’s Friday again! I hope everyone had a great week. For this Fashion Friday I’m going to talk about wearing a playsuit (aka a romper). Playsuit just sounds better, don’t you agree? Anyway, this is my look: Playsuit: Zara; Belt: Similar, Shoes: Lucky Brand; Bag: Rebecca Minkoff PS. Those Lucky Brand shoes are so on sale right now, that yours truly will be purchasing them in the off white. Whoops, I digress. I love the colors in the print. This is a perfect example of having red and pink mix, and it totally working. You can also choose to…

Bracelet Stacking!

Bracelet Stacking!

Hello everyone! I LOVE jewelry as I’m sure many of you do too. Today I’m going to talk about bracelet stacking (arm party? whatever you want to call it). I always have to have bracelets on, just like I always have to wear a watch. It’s a part of my outfit. Ring: David Yurman, (Bracelets from Left to Right) Vintage, SimoneJ jewelry, David Yurman, SimoneJ jewelry, Hermes I was always the type of person to never mix metals. I even hated when my handbag hardware didn’t match my jewelry. Recently, I love mixing metals. It helps when you have two…
