Motivation Monday!

Motivation Monday!

And we’re back! How was your weekend? Mine was great! I’l tell you a little more about it in a minute, but first.. I think this quote speaks to a lot of different situations. I personally chose this quote today because it reminds us to take care of ourselves. There are so many people in this world, why surround yourself with negative, miserable people. It’s 100% ok to cut those people out of your life. It’s ok to buy yourself a gift. It’s ok to be unforgiving for a little while if someone has hurt you. Just make sure you…

Simply by Simone does Watches

Hello everyone! Good morning! So excitingly enough today I took pictures three times before I could actually get them on my computer. Infuriated? Yes, yes I was. Even better, was that my camera deleted the pictures from the actual camera memory every time I plugged it into the computer. Finally, I just took the pictures with my old reliable iPhone. My camera is SO lucky that I’m a grown adult now and no longer smash inanimate objects into little pieces when they don’t cooperate. HA (just kidding about that last smashing part) ANYWAYS… Today with a lot of LOVE I…

How to: Statement Ring

How to: Statement Ring

Hello everyone and welcome to my ring party! Today I’m going to talk about statement rings. I think when most people think of statement rings they think of very, very large rings. Personally, for a ring to make a statement, I don’t think it has to be huge, but it does need to catch the eye and be a great design. I’m going to share with you today some pictures of my personal favorites! Here we go: Costume: Melinda Maria YSL Ring finger: Sterling Silver, similar | Pointer: Philippe Audibert I think it’s important to get quality costume rings so they…

Fashion Friday: Day to Night

Fashion Friday: Day to Night

Hello! It always feels like Friday will never arrive when I’m drinking my Monday (or in this week’s case, Tuesday) morning coffee. But, here we are! Today I’m going to talk about transitioning an outfit from day to night. Over the Summer I feel like this is something imperative to learn. There are so many days that it’s so hot during the day and then cooler at night. Here’s what I wore over the weekend: Top: Nastygal, similar | Shorts: JBRAND, similar | Shoes: Dolce Vita PS. There’s nothing I hate more than the fact that I just placed an…

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…
