Rocksbox number three

Kendra Scott Tessa Stud Earrings in Chalcedony

Gorjana Vista Cuff in Gold

Perry Street Flora Crystal Necklace

This is third set of goodies I received from Rocksbox to borrow. I hung onto it for quite a while, because I LOVED this necklace. I have a similar statement necklace, but it’s rather cheap. And compared to this beauty, it pales. It looks cheap. And tacky.

But this. THIS necklace is my jewelry spirit animal. I can’t tell you how many compliments I received when I wore it – from coworkers, from girlfriends, from a lady at a wine bar. It looks great dressed up (see it with pleats and polka dots here), and just as great with a plain tee. It adds a bit of glam to an otherwise casual look, and also serves to elevate and even out a fancier (more fancy? fancy-er?) look. I liked the necklace and earrings, however, the necklace was by far my favorite – I’m still debating making it mine…

So, please enjoy these two looks I've put together, and excuse me while I try to snag some Lilly goodies at my local Target store (or the one in the next town over. or the next one).

day 17

I tried to tie in some metallic elements with this all black and white ensemble for a little visual interest - my headband, scarf, jewelry, and the zippers on my booties. Sometime's it's nice to throw in a little metal with a simple outfit to spice it up.
