Charmed.
Posted by on January 8, 2013
I poured over the new arrivals for Spring at Kate Spade today and stopped my scrolling right at this nifty charm bracelet. I feel like it’s sort of cheating to buy a charm bracelet already stacked full of charms, no? I’ve always admired the one that my Grandmother wears, knowing that each charm she has commemorates a special occasion or memory — but I guess you have to start somewhere right? Perhaps this is a good time to get collecting!

Pops of dots.

Do you have a signature pattern? I’m pretty committed to stripes — both in fashion and decor. But every once in awhile I cheat on stripes and end up falling in love with polka dots. I’m currently enamored with all of these black and white polka dot bracelets and their pop-art feel!

Trash to treasure.

I’m one of five bloggers sharing a “trash to treasure” DIY makeover on Brooklyn Limestone this week; head over and see how I turned a beat up old toolbox into a jewelry armoire!
5 Under $50: Electric Pink
Posted by on June 12, 2012
This week’s 5 under $50 couldn’t be contained to just 5 — I had to add in one extra item because there are so many fun neon pieces out for Summer. Hot pink pairs perfectly with a white tee and a beach-y glow, don’t you think? Are you playing with electric pink in your wardrobe this season?
Bathing Suit top ($20) and bottom ($20), necklace ($28), BaubleBar earrings ($34), belt ($10), Old Navy flip flops ($15), J.Crew canvas tote ($36)
5 Under $50: Bright Studs
Posted by on April 10, 2012
I’m a pearl earrings kind of gal; I wear big pearl studs almost every single day of the week. Sometimes a girl has to mix it up though, and when I venture from my safety net I gravitate towards bright pops of color from simple stud earrings. Here are a few of my favorites, all under $50:
Green ($24), Blue ($32), Orange ($25), Yellow ($38), and Pink ($45)
Spring Break Daydream.
Posted by on March 14, 2012
This time of year there are a few weeks when Boston gets a little quiet because all of the college students go home for Spring Break. This is awesome if you are in college and get to go on said break. But, if you are a grown up you stay in Boston and look out your window at the beautiful spring weather and daydream about how much fun it would be to take spring break again. And since it’s my daydream, I feel pretty confident I could rock a tiny nautical bikini like this one:
Jewelry for your shoes.

It’s Friday, people! And Fridays call for a little extra dazzle to kick the weekend off right. Which is why I’m sharing some incredibly adorable shoe clips from Jackie Valentine with you today. As accessory obsessed as I am, I’ve never actually tried shoe clips.This might be the final frontier of my bauble addiction — jewels for your shoes. Tell me, are you a shoe clip girl? How do you they feel on?

Soiree Statements.
Posted by on December 12, 2011
It’s holiday cocktail party season, and I’m running out of dresses! My solution? Major statement pieces to jazz up my look and transform simple black dresses into a bevy of outfit options. These big pieces are all about balance; I’ll mix a chunky cocktail ring with large earrings, but pair simple pearls with the giant bib necklaces.
Playful baubles.

Some girls flip for shoes, others collect handbags — my downfall is without a doubt costume jewelry. I can’t say no to a big chunky statement necklace. Enter my newest obsession: Kristina Klarin. These pieces are so cheerful and playful and colorful; it must be almost impossible to have a bad day when you’re wearing something so fun.
