Spring Statement Bracelets On Any Budget!

23 Apr

I love a good statement bracelet ,especially during Spring and Summer where the wrists are almost always exposed. As the days get warmer, we often turn to lighter fabrics and much less clothing overall-bringing the perfect opportunity to jazz up your look by going a little nuts on the jewelry. Statement bracelets really are for everyone.  If you are not comfortable stacking bracelets, statement bracelets are for you, just one bold piece delivers oomph to your outfit without any effort. If you are a serial stacker like myself, just throw these bracelets on your other wrist!

Below are some statement bracelets that can be easily incorporated into your Spring and Summer looks!

Cambridge Handbag Collaboration Out This Month!!!

2 Feb

The Cambridge Satchel Company has been in the works with American designer Chris Benz on the fun and colorful Spring 2013 (Virginia) collection.  The bags are the classic Cambridge designs that we’ve come to expect and love but have a few new fun twists.  The bags are available in 9 colors and all have a signature white front pocket and  the bag is a smaller more compact shape with a single top handle and comes with a longer removable strap as well.  While the buckles look exactly the same, they  have magnetic closures which is awesome, making it way easier to get in and out of your bag. This collection will be available later this month at Bloomingdales $295.

Floral Jeans

8 Jul

As the proud new owner of floral jeans I wanted to do a post that would inspire you to get a pair as well.  I did have floral jeans as a kid but this is my first pair in my adulthood.  Floral is so fun and they come in many color combos from grey to brights to colorful pastels, it’s up to you.  I purchased a grey Current/Elliott pair(#4 below), yes I was bold enough for the print but not bold enough for color…..baby steps!  I wore mine with a white v neck and pink sandals and plan to wear them into Fall with bold blues and blacks.  As far as shoes, they look great with sandals, flats, wedges and heels! When wearing floral jeans, my only advice is to pair them with solid pieces so that the jeans are on a stage of their own.  Below are some ideas on how to wear them and also some pairs to shop. Enjoy!

Floral jeans for you to shop!

1.Black & white J brand ($200) available at Nordstrom. 2. Blue & white($135) available at Madewell. 3. Cream Citezens of humanity ($189) available at Neiman marcus.

4. Grey Current/Elliott $198 available at Nordstrom. 5. Lilac & blue Joes Jeans ($179) available at Neiman Marcus. 6. Petite pastel jeans ($58) available at Asos.

P.S. I saw 2 floral styles at Target today for $22.99. They are available in store only, here is the link to take a peek.
