Blanket Scarf!(Under $25)

11 Nov

If you buy only one scarf this Fall/Winter…..let it be an oversized plaid blanket scarf. The print is bold enough to add a nice pop of color to any outfit without being overbearing. Blanket scarves can be worn in various ways with t-shirts, tucked into coats or over even a dress. They’re cozy and so quintessentially Fall.

Modcloth has the perfect plaid scarf and it comes in different colors. Priced at $24.99, it’s a great way to update your cold weather wardrobe without breaking the bank!

Have a great weekend,

XO- Journey

Faux Sho!

I am loving Faux suede baseball hats lately, they go with everything and look great dressed up or down. Faux suede is the perfect texture for fall is a great spin on a classic baseball cap. I wear mine with everything!!! Are you a baseball hat kind of girl?  This is the hat for you.

Choked Up!

8 Sep

Chokers are back y’all! Well, they’ve been back for a while, but they’re catching on like wildfire. I’m old enough to remember when chokers were all the rage in the 90’s. They are definitely back with a vengeance~ as are the entire 90’s(good and bad).  Anyways, this past weekend, I received two chokers that I ordered from Forever 21 to wear with a specific outfit. I ordered black to be safe & burgundy hoping it would match the heels I was going to wear. It ended up matching perfectly, so I went with that one. Long story, short, I got so many compliments and messages about the chokers after I shared them on Instagram and Snapchat- especially after I shared the PRICE!!! Both chokers were under $10 total!  So without further ado…… here are links to both chokers. What I love most about these chokers, is that they are dainty and appear to wrap around the neck. I think they are so cute and bring an element of style to a look without overpowering it like a large ribbon type of choker could.

I have really been into off the shoulder tops lately and my favorite is a pretty white top with rainbow tassels! It is so cute! I found it on Sheinside.com and there were quite a few other tassel tops on the website as well.  I hadn’t even heard of She Inside until about 2 years ago, but I’m glad I did because it’s kind of like an online forever 21 with tons of very affordable and trendy pieces. Scroll down to shop some of my tassel top faves!!!

Look for Less: Valentino Rockstud Sandals.

I am pleased to announce that Target has the Betseyville studded sandals back in stock!! They are the best Rockstud lookalikes I’ve ever seen. If you follow my Instagram, you already know I own rock studs and rock stud lookalikes and am obsessed with them all equally. If you can afford the splurge valentino version, great. If not, the budget friendly Betseyville version is the shoe for you. I’ve had the black ones for a while and love them and just ordered the tan online. Can’t wait to rock them all Summer long.

Vacation Essentials

29 Apr

I’m just finishing up packing for my vacation tomorrow, I’ll be heading to Kauai, Hawaii. I thought I’d share a few of my island essentials with you guys. When packing for a sunny destination, SPF is crucial- I use SPF 110 on my face and 50 on my body. I love Neutrogena Age shield face because it’s the only sunblock that doesn’t break out my sensitive skin. I also packed my oversized Old Navy floppy hat, white tory Burch flip flops and the cutest tommy Bahama fringe cover up that I found for under $50!!! I’ve been looking forward to this vacation for some time and will be sure to drink a Mai Tai for all of you guys:)

Coveted Cuffs!

4 Apr

I often get asked about my “favorite” jewelry brands. That’s not easy to answer because so many jewelers are talented and make the cutest stuff! I will however, say that I definitely find myself wearing Giles & Brother Railroad spike cuffs time and time again. Like almost daily in fact. I wear them when I’m super dressy or casual. They are the perfect morph of understated & industrial meets elegant & pretty . These cuffs are for everyone(they are unisex) seriously, whether you’re edgy or super chic. They come in a variety of colors and sizes and look great alone or stacked. I have just about every finish and have never had a problem with tarnishing, but they do come in solid silver or gold, if you’re looking for a high end piece to last a lifetime.

Giles & Brother Railroad spike cuffs $75-$5,100
