Colorblocking Jewelry

Colorblocking was a huge trend this spring and summer and I think it will continue through the fall but what about using the trend on your accessories?  Check out these pieces!

Max and Chloe, Feather tribal convertible bracelet, $70

Sassy and unique, and you can wrap it around your wrist or wear it as a necklace with colored denim.

Anthropologie, Moche necklace, $78

Hello pastel perfection.  Just wow.

Marc Jacobs, Colorblock bolt bracelet, $49

I really like how raw these look.  Feminine yet hard.

Nordstroms, Colorblock Heart Studs, $27

I've posted these before and I'll post them again. So fun, so tiny, so sweet!

Thoughts? I love this trend for jewelry because it adds such a pop for an accessory.

Boquet of Rosettes

Hey lovebugs!

I was so struck by a dress I posted yesterday from Modcloth: Ready Rosette Go dress that I wanted to do a whole post on this type of detail: rosettes.

Nordstrom, Poetic License Exclusive Delight, $98

How wonderful are these? Quirky and unqiue.  The t-strap makes it for me.

The Limited, rosette strapless dress, $69

Yes wedding season is almost over, but for this price, I would scoop this up for next year!

Forever 21, Tulle Corsage Sweater, $16

I love the color on this sweater and the little white pearls are so sweet.

Max and Chloe, silver rosette drops, $45

These are great for work, jeans, or an LBD.  They are more than worth the price.

Details like rosettes really make a piece stand out.  It's different than a print pattern because this gives an item more depth.

Reader Request: Birthday Dress

Today's post is for my friend Lauren who is looking for a fabulous dress for her upcoming birthday.  She didn't give me ANY hints of style or look so here we go!

Newport News, One shoulder drape front dress, $64

I saw this dress in Glamour and I just fell in love with it.  So effortless but the color is 'pow!'

Macys, Charlie Jade Dress, $99

Hello blue. Lauren has great short blonde hair. This would be perfect!

J Crew, Thessaly beach dress, $39

I love this mix of cotton and silk.  I would dress this up with metallic strappy sandals and some big 'ol earrings.

Modcloth, Ready Rosette Go dress, $54

LBD? Yes please.  Perfect mix of sexy and sweet.

Which one do you think Lauren should wear?  My favorite is the blue silk.  I think it will look great on the dance floor and the color will pop in pictures.
