Bolts & Bracelets

I loved this DIY jewelery idea from one of my favorite bloggers A Pair & a Spair & had to share it.  I've been seeing a lot of this "stacked" ring & bracelet look lately & have always loved the look... 

 

What's great about this look is that everything above can be found at a hardware or thrift store :).

Some photos of the "stacked" look below...

 

Get down to your local hardware store!  I've been seeing BOLTS everywhere lately, too!  Rings, pendants, charms... I love it all.

Breaking the Rules

Who says you can't wear gold & silver together?  This is one of those fashion rules that is meant to be broken (in my opinion at least)!  I mix my chunky gold watch with silver & beige bangles all the time… or pair my white linen jacket with big silver buttons with gold accessories & brown shoes.  As long as your pieces are connected in some way… the outfit just works.  I like wear an accessory that helps "link" or make my outfit look cohesive.  A good way to do this is by having jewelry pieces that are a mesh of gold & silver.  

Here are some jewelry pieces that link different metals together in an outfit… 

All of these pieces are available at Shopbop.com & Karmaloop.com.

I've blogged about these online stores before & they're for sure some of my favs!  

I especially love the Juicy Couture silver gold & purple earings!   I'll be snagging those for sure! :)

Quote of the Week

Spring Craving

   

With all of the spring trends & designer sneak-peaks coming out this month, i've definitely caught a case of SPRING FEVER!  It's a little too early to break out the sun dresses & warm weather looks, but you can incorporate some springtime color into your winter wardrobe!  

Below are some of my fav ways to wear some pastel during winter time… 

My best friend & I out in Vegas this last weekend (it was her birthday lol).
My turquoise necklace is from Nordstrom.  A bright, fun necklace is a great way to add a pop of color to a LBD! 

I'm loving the tangerine lip trend & think it's a great way to add some color to a winter white complexion.  

Loving these pastel nails!  It's a little too early for pastel pink, but the blue says winter wonderland to me!  

I spotted these Jessica Simpson pumps at Nordstrom last week & thought they were a really fun way to add a pop of color to an outfit.  Usually, i'm not a patent leather person, but I love the mixing of materials & the price-tag doesn't hurt either (less than $100)!

Recent Buys…

I love love love this bag!  The mixture of different textures is really amazing & I this tote makes me so excited for springtime!  

Cole Haan Riding Boots

Nike Air Technology.  Need I say more?  I feel like a good pair of flat riding boots are an investment & are really timeless.  These will be worn for years. 

  

House of Harlow 1960 Pave Stargazer Earrings 

I'm so loving statement studs at the moment & these add just enough glitz to any outfit without being overkill or too dressy.
