Rose Gold Watches On Every Budget!

28 Jan

Rose gold has been trending for quite some time now and it’s no surprise: The beautiful hue looks great on all skin tones and can be mixed with yellow, dark and light metals. I personally love wearing my rose gold watch year round. I pair it with pastels and light metals in the spring and with dark greys and blacks in the winter months. Whether or not you’re a jewelry person, a rose gold watch is a must for everyone. They can be causally worn alone or as a part of an arm party- it’s up to you.  If you do not own a rose gold watch, now’s the time!

My Favorite Quilted Bag!

22 Jan

Quilted handbags have been around for quite  awhile and are the perfect timeless style to include in your handbag collection. The beauty about quilted bags is that they can be worn with anything from an evening dress to a t-shirt and ripped jeans. Every designer has their own take on the quilted bag with Chanel being the most recognized. Just in case you’ve been living under a rock- you can’t get your hands on a Chanel bag for less than $1500 and that’s the LOW END. That brings me to the entire point of this post; Most people would love a Chanel bag yet most people could never afford one- and there aren’t too many great options for a well made quilted bag without going bankrupt in the process… UNTIL NOW- Rebecca Minkoff has outdone herself with the Quilted Love Bag!!! These bags are so well made and are priced at $295 for the standard size and $195 for the mini. Not exactly cheap but totally doable!!! They look and feel like a million bucks and are available in an array of colors and hardware options. I have one in the standard size. I love it and highly recommend it!

The Quilted Love bag can be worn with the chain long for cross body wear, with the chain doubled for shoulder wear or worn without the chain as a clutch! Who doesn’t love options??!!!! I also love how these bags have an outside pocket for phone or keys!

Timeless Monogrammed Handbags!

9 Jan

Who doesn’t love a monogrammed bag- or monogrammed anything for that matter?  I can’t exactly put my finger on why, but I just love slapping my initials on any accessory  that I can. This post focuses on two of my favorite timeless carryalls that will be around for seasons to come. Both of these classic shaped bags have top handles for handheld wear as well as a cross body strap for hands free wear(perfect for busy moms). They are both available in an assortment of rich colors and are made of supple leather. The bags are large enough to hold everything but not too oversized or bulky.  If you’ve been looking for an investment bag that won’t go out of style anytime soon- these are the bags for you. They make a statement without being too “showy” or over the top, making them the perfect bags whether you’re a ‘fancy’ or ‘casual’ fashionista.

Cobalt Love!

26 Dec

How gorgeous is this cobalt blazer!!!! Cobalt is a great color because it can be worn year round. I often wear cobalt with white in the Spring and with black in the Winter. This blazer can be thrown on over a little black dress or with jeans and a T-shirt.

Capes and Ponchos Oh My!

16 Dec

If you follow me on Instagram, you already know that I can’t get enough of my $17 oversized plaid blanket scarf. I am not alone when it comes to the obsession- these scarves are everywhere! I wear mine with everything and it’s perfect with or without a jacket as well.  Lately I’ve been pretty into capes and ponchos as well and have found three that are budget friendly and super cute to share with ya’ll.

Happy shopping!

Look For Less!

Phillip Lim’s Pashli bag has been a HUGE success among fashion bloggers and bag loving ladies for some time now and the mini version is just as popular. The original Pashli bag retails for upwards of $895  while the mini starts at $695  depending on what material you choose. When Lim collaborated with Target last year and designed a similar version of the coveted bag at a fraction of the price, fashionistas lined up to get their hands on the affordable version and it quickly sold out. Since then, there have been quite a few similar versions but I must say, this Forever 21 version made me look TWICE and it retails for less than $25!!!!! Check it out!
