Instagram Look – 06/17/2019

Mint Tweed

mint tweed 1This past week, I decided to go for a more polished look with this mint green tweed jacket. I kept it easy by pairing it back with simple timeless pieces like a black tee and my selvedge Levi’s. My favorite part of the outfit is the Naya Tahlia Metallic Oxfords. I got a great deal on these from Hautelook! They are definite statement shoes and are actually super comfortable! Although I was going for a menswear inspired look, I wanted to spice it up with all these metallic accessories to give a fresh, feminine look.

August RocksBox Review

Happy Friday! Thanks to my friend Claire, I have a new fun service to share with you called RocksBox! She recently sent me a promo for one free month, so I thought… why not give it a try?

Here’s how it works. It’s a monthly subscription of $19.99/ month. First you create a style profile, which basically consists of a quick survey of what jewelry types, metals, etc. you prefer and a gallery of pictures where you can pick your favorite items. From that profile, three styles are picked just for you and delivered in cute little boxes wrapped up with a ribbon. Now for the fun part, you can wear the jewelry as much as you want and just as easily send them back whenever you want! There’s no timeline, you can get as many or as little boxes as you want a month. As soon as you’re ready to send them back, you drop them in the mail and three more will be sent your way. Fall in love with one of the items? No prob, keep it! You get 20% off the retail price of any piece in your box to add to your permanent collection.

What I really love about RocksBox is the flexibility it offers. It allows you to experiment with your style risk-free! You can try out new trends and colors in the comfort of your own home and send back what doesn’t work. You also have the flexibility to update your style profile and review each item you receive to give the stylists a better idea of what you want in the future. So far, the stylists have been spot on with their selecetions for me! Ready to see what I got in my first RocksBox?

House of Harlow 1960 Five Station Necklace in Black ($60)– I love this necklace; it’s actually one of the styles I favorited in my style profile! I’ve been eyeing this piece on piperlime for over a year, so I was thrilled to see it included in my RocksBox! It’s simple and elegant. I love the geometric look and the leather details. It’s super versatile and I know I will get a ton of use out of it.

RocksBox 3

 

Urban Gem Dahlia Earrings in Mint ($45)– The stylists hit the nail on the head with these earrings. They are so much fun and definitely something I would pick out for myself. I love the mint color, the diamond shape and the dramatic feel of them. These earrings are a statement piece so I love the idea of switching them out with a new style after getting a few uses out of them. This is where I think RocksBox makes the most sense, lending me things I would love to try out for a few weeks and easily send back for something new!

RocksBox 5

 

CC Skye Mini Spike Gold Bracelet ($110)– This bracelet might be my favorite of the three pieces! It looks great layered with my other bangles and its small spikes give it a subtle edge. It would be a great staple for my growing collection of arm candy! There’s only one drawback, the price. Although great quality, it’s the priciest of all three options in my box, coming in at $88 (after the 20% off membership discount). For me it’s not worth the price, but I will enjoy it until I decide to send my box back!

Leopard and Leather

As I referenced in my Black & White post last week, I love the clean and simple combination of black and white this season. Instead of opting for my typical take on this trend of colorblock or stripes, I decided to translate it into a print- more specifically a leopard print!

I love keeping this trend monochromatic, but sometimes the occasion calls for a pop of color! For a little whimsy, I paired this rocker look with some fun mint accessories. It’s a great way to keep studded, faux-leather pieces from looking too biker. This look is perfect for any night out; it’s the ideal mix of dressing up and dressing down, both casual and chic!

Summer Must Haves

Hi all! Since the official start of summer is this Saturday, I am rounding up my favorite must haves for the season! If you are anything like us, you already have a TON planned for this summer. When summer finally comes around, it seems the calendar is immediately packed with barbecues, beach days and much more! I have put together some of my favorite summer themed items to help navigate you through your jam-packed summer.


Throwing a backyard barbecue? Hosting a party can be a little stressful, so I love to keep it casual and fun! The items below are my favorites for hosting a party. From colorful bar tools to pineapple ice trays and squeeze pop molds, you are bound to have a great party!

Anthropologie Color Reel bar tools ($10-$24) / Anthropologie Fruit Wedge Tumbler ($10) / Target Tinted Mason Jar ($9.99) / Target Sangria Pitcher ($7.99) / UO Burger Spatula ($20) / Anthropologie Pineapple Ice Trays ($14) / Anthropologie Squeeze Pop Molds ($16)


Or is the beach calling your name? The first chance we get, my husband and I will be cruising up Highway 1 to Stinson Beach. It’s an incredible beach town where we escape the city to relax and catch some rays. Compiled below are some finds I’ve been lusting over for this year’s inevitable beach trips. I love the ease of this crepe mint cover-up, the bright high-waisted floral bikini and even the fun ice cream beach towel! Tired of flip-flops? Try giving your feet a break by ditching those flip-flops for these tropical printed slip-ons. (I’m kinda obsessed and have featured 2 different pairs I have in Studs & Crochet and Pop of Mint). These are much more comfortable than flip-flops and still give you the beach side look!

ASOS Floral Bikini (Top- $34.30 and Bottoms- $30.49) / Rip Curl Straw Beach Tote ($49.50) / Forever 21 Beaded Necklace ($6.80) / Forever 21 Ice Cream Beach Towel ($10.80) / ASOS Mint Tunic ($41.92) / Forever 21 Geo Round Sunglasses ($5.80) / David & Young Floppy Hat ($20) / Topshop Tika Floral Slip-Ons ($25) / Target Tribal Bucket Bag ($17.49) / ASOS Trapeze Maxi ($49.54) / ASOS Embellished Shorts ($66.69)

Pop of Mint

Today I am rocking yet another color of these Topshop Slip-Ons. You may have seen my light pink pair from the Studs & Crochet post a couple of weeks ago. I ended up loving those so much I had to run back to Nordstrom and buy the black pair too! They are so versatile and comfortable that I find myself throwing them on all the time! And for only $35, you can’t beat them!

glamourita pop of mint crossbodyOne of my favorite colors right now is mint and it has been popping up everywhere over the past year! Since pastels are trending this season, I got this mint crossbody to add a pop of color to my neutral outfits. I can only expect that mint won’t be sticking around as the trendy color forever, so I opted for this Forever 21 option that was only $14.80! What a steal! Do you love the pastel trend this season? How are you mixing it into your wardrobe?
