I received my star earrings from Ettika in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own. I can’t believe it’s already the 4th of July next week. I love the 4th of July. It’s one of my favorite holidays. But I’m not really a stars and stripes-wearing kinda gal. Don’t get me wrong. I’m totally…
I recently got these tortoise shell earrings. At the time, I didn’t realize tortoise hoop earrings are majorly on trend for summer. I actually haven’t gotten a pair of tortoise hoops yet, but I do love these gold earrings with a touch of tortoise shell. I’m pretty new to wearing dangling earrings. For the longest…
I received this watch from MVMT. All opinions are my own. I love accessories. After nearly three months in CA, I finally unpacked everything last weekend and I forgot just how many accessories I own. Sunglasses make up the majority of my accessory collection, but I also own a ton of necklaces, earrings and bracelets….
Honestly, I’ve been stuck on my diamond studs for about a decade now. I hardly ever change out my earrings, but I’ve been trying to do it more often. Earrings are an accessory I loved when I was younger. I think I had four holes in one ear and five in the other. I’m actually…
So I’ve been into headscarves ever since the 6th grade. I can distinctly remember this time where we had to go around the class and write something nice about everyone in the class. Several students wrote that they liked my headscarves. If you’re wondering what the difference between a headband and a headscarf is, well,…
I’ve decided to take more fashion risks this year. Since having kids, I’ve realized I’ve been in quite a rut. Although I’ve always taken pride in looking my best, for the last couple years, I’ve been rocking basically the same style. I wear the same jewelry, never venturing into new territory, until I found these…
The 90s punk trend is in full effect. I’ve noticed a lot of people rocking leather chokers lately. I am not a huge choker fan, but I do like leather necklaces and bracelets. Heck, I love leather accessories. Lucky for me, there are tons of leather necklaces this fall and I happened to find a…
I try to keep an eye on fashion trends, and one easy way I stay updated is knowing the new 2016 Pantone color of the year. For 2016, there are two colors: Rose Quartz and Serenity. The blush pink and the periwinkle blue are quite a departure from the 2015 Marsala color. I personally love…
Paint splattered clothing made a major come back this past fall. I say “come back” because I can remember this intentionally messy trend from way back in the 80’s. I personally wouldn’t wear it on my clothes, but I’m really loving paint splatter purses, shoes and accessories (look at these Manolos!). I first fell for the…
Heart fashion accessories aren’t just for Valentine’s day. Heart shapes are a fashion staple. I love heart prints, as much on clothes as I do on accessories. Remember those popular J.Crew sweaters with the giant hearts on the chest from a couple years back (Kate Spade makes a cute one now)? If you like hearts, but don’t want to…
Lately, I’ve been in an accessories funk. I have tons of fun statement necklaces, but hardly any cool earrings. I admit I get really lazy with changing out my classic diamond studs. The ear crawlers and earring jackets I’ve seen lately have sparked my interest enough that I think I’m ready to retire my studs, for now….
As I write this, I’m wrapped in an old North Face fleece, because my office is freezing. Yes, I live in the valley of the sun. But lately, it’s been really cold here (ok, in the 30’s at night and 50’s during the day, but still very cold for the dessert!). When I moved to…
In many cultures, an evil eye ring is an amulet, a symbol meant to protect it’s wearer. Whether you believe in the curse of the evil eye or not, these eyes have become a staple fashion trend popping up on all sorts of accessories. Just last week, I showed you a wallet with eyes on it….
By far, my favorite fashion accessory is a crystal statement necklace. Awhile back, I talked about statement necklaces and why they are so versatile. A chunky or shiny or truly eye-catching necklace is still my go-to accessory because it instantly changes the whole vibe of my outfit. I might wear the same black dress every couple…
The J. Crew return policy is awesome! A retailer’s customer service is measured when a purchased item breaks or you have trouble locating an item. A welcome greeting is certainly appreciated but amounts to friendly banter rather than actual service. Getting the tough stuff right – a fair return policy – is all that really matters…
