Belated Fashion Resolutions

About 22 weeks ago, or 154 days, I decided that I needed to stop buying new accessories and start utilizing all of the ones I currently have. Since then I have made an attempt to not wear a necklace twice until all have been worn.


Of course I don't wear a necklace everyday- in the winter I usually trade between scarves and necklaces but if the shirt has beading or a graphic I try not to over do it with the accessories.

I heard once- you should put one of everything on you like, earrings, necklace, ring, and bracelet. And then take one off.

I don't know if that is true or not- I don't personally think you can be overstyled if its your personal style.

Either way, I don't have earrings so I guess by default I follow that rule.

This years fashion resolution- while belated is coming at the perfect time, its never too late to get your style on!

What I initially loved about this idea what that it really forced me to wear certain necklaces that I bought for maybe a one time occasion.

And even better it tested me sometimes, which sounds so dramatic, and it totally wasn't THAT serious; but it made me really think about the colors that I liked together, and styles to try and new things. It made me sometimes reinvent my style so to speak.

Anyway, I have posted a few of my favorites and will continue to do so. However I can't guarantee the no repeat... I might let some of the newbies slide :)



As always, I hope you enjoyed! Thanks for reading!

Eyeing these items!



Lately, with all the events I have coming up and birthdays, I cant but help jump on the ball with my outfit selections. Below are the top things I have been eyeing.


The plaid blazer totally gave me a clueless moment and I know I needed to have it.
While the floral blazer is perfect for a garden party, or a brunch.
And don't even get me started on that amazing skirt... definitely my top pick.
Charming Charlie I came across just recently and have to say it is amazing. An accessories warehouse- I couldn't help but explore it.
and last but not least that gorgeous shoe, that would be perfect accompanying that floral jacket for a champagne brunch with the girls. Links are down below!
Hope you enjoy!

Neon Trends for Winter

Winter is my favorite time of the year, but sometimes I look in my closet and I get sick of wearing the traditional black which is so timeless for Winter.
 
As I was getting ready this morning I looked through my accessories and was drawn to my neon collection. Then I started to Overthink.. Is neon appropriate for fall?
 
I immediately headed to Pintrest and discovered that shown on the runway this winter was Bright yellows and Citrine colors. I thought what a better way to brighten up the gloomy cold weather than to add a POP of color.
 
 
The clutch (pictured) is not the easiest thing to pair with everything, it looks amazing with white and grey and I have a few pieces that are interchangeable. This however  was my staple inspiration- I thought why not wear this with nude colors or black? Make this the centerpiece of my outfit- a subtle outfit with this wonderful pop was just what I needed.
 
As most of the working force know, neon is not the typical office wear- but in small doses I think the office could get used to it. So I am saving this look for my fabulous casual Friday!
 
I included more of my neon accessories in the picture below and details are to the right.
