Sparkle in Plaid

Today is all about dolling up the rugged plaid trend. Just because a lumberjack wears plaid to chop down a tree doesn’t mean we can’t sparkle in it! I see a lot of girls sporting the plaid trend, but it’s almost always paired back to sneakers and a ponytail. Don’t get me wrong, that’s an adorable casual look, but there’s no reason you can’t dress up that same plaid shirt!

I got this great plaid flannel from Old Navy and absolutely love the versatility! To go for a more glam look, I opted for metallic accessories, my current Rocksbox jewelry and a bright pink lip! Take a closer look at my accessories below and share how you dress up your plaid in the comments!

December Rocksbox Review | 2014

I’m so excited to share my latest Rocksbox with you! This month’s box was not only filled with the usual three beautiful jewelry pieces, but one extra! A super cute gold script necklace that says shine and it’s mine to keep! What a nice gift from Rocksbox, right?

How it works- It’s a monthly subscription costing $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, almost immediately! Fall in love with one (or all) of the items? No prob, keep it! You get 20% off the retail price of any piece in your box to add to your personal collection.

Below is this month’s collection:

Slate Barred Cuff (retails at $38, member price is $30)– I love this cuff! It’s simple, but edgy! Most of my bracelets are gold these days, so it was nice to get this silver cuff to mix it up and make a statement. For a casual look, it’s great to layer over a long sleeve top or with just a t-shirt and jeans. I know it will be easy to get my money’s worth out of this rental!

Gorjana Fancy Horn Long Necklace (retails at $68, member price is $54)– This is now the third Gorjana piece I’ve received in my Rocksbox, and they do not disappoint. This necklace is stunning! Similar to last month’s delicate necklace, it’s an amazing layering piece and is super versatile. You can’t really see the chain in the picture, but it’s a long necklace, measuring in at 27 inches long! I think it’s amazing and will definitely be layering it with my free “shine necklace” from Rocksbox!

Loren Hope Ursa Earrings (retails at $78, member price is $62)– Wow, these are some statement earrings! Now I love a good pair of statement earrings, but for a normal workday I tend to lean towards statement necklaces. They usually come off a bit more casual and are just more comfortable for all day wear. These earrings are really fun, but I don’t see myself getting a ton of use out of them. That’s why Rocksbox is amazing, I can get a few fabulous wears out of them, send them back and start wearing my new fabulous pieces!

October RocksBox Review

The mailman came and I have a new RocksBox to share with all of you!

You get 20% off the retail price of any piece in your box to add to your personal collection.

Below is my stash from October’s box:

Charlene K Mini Raw Stone Pendant Necklace in Black Agate (retails at $83, member price is $66)– I love this long pendant necklace. It’s a long gold chain with a beautiful black agate stone pendant. The black stone not only makes it edgy, but also versatile! It goes with a ton of items in my closet and is unlike anything I currently have in my collection. I realize I’m starting to get quite a collection of gold necklaces, especially pendants. But, I get a ton of use out of them. They are great to layer and can be dressed up or down!

Margaret Elizabeth Chrysoprase Pave Studs (retails at $108, member price is $86)– These studs are stunning. I usually focus my statement jewelry on my necklaces, but every now and again I love to wear beautiful earrings. The mint color is on trend and compliments so many pieces in my wardrobe. And the gold pave setting complements the mint perfectly and makes the studs look very high end! Because of how nice they are, I will probably only be able to get a few uses out of them with how casual I normally dress, but I will definitely make them count!

Gorjana Mila Hexagon Cuff (retails at $65, member price is $52)– This is the second piece of jewelry I’ve received of Gorjana. Just like the last Gorjana necklace, I can immediately tell it’s great quality and has some weight to it. This cuff is a ton of fun and is different from any other bangle I own! Instead of the simple circle shape, it’s actually shaped like a hexagon. What I love most about this cuff is it’s adjustable! This makes it easy for me to wear with any of my other bangles.

Gorjana Mika Gold Pendant Necklace (retails at $85, member price is $68)– This necklace is both beautiful and edgy. When I received this box, I didn’t know much about Gorjana jewelry, but I could immediately tell this necklace was great quality. I love the simplicity of the shape paired with the sharpness of the triangle. It’s not like any other pendant in my collection, I already know I will get a ton of use out of it!

House of Harlow 1960 Sunburst Bangle in Black and White (retails at $68, member price is $54)– This is the second House of Harlow piece I’ve received in my RocksBox. And again, just like the last one, I LOVE the look of it, but I’m not crazy about wearing it. After it’s first wear, I noticed my last House of Harlow necklace ended up pinching my neck and this bangle is uncomfortable also. It’s not only HUGE, but also heavy. I prefer to stack my bangles and for them to run a little smaller so they don’t slide up and down my arm all day. This bangle was so large, it couldn’t be worn with any other bangles, but besides the size, I would definitely purchase it..

Wanderlust + Co X Double Crystal Silver Ring (retails at $29, member price is $23)– This ring is a ton of fun and is different from any other ring I own! Instead of the simple circle shape, it’s actually a large “X” that takes up the area of my finger, all the way to my knuckle! It’s a ring worn to make a statement. The unusual “X” shape gives it a little bit of edge, but the rhinestones and silver color keep it dainty. For only $23, it’s a steal I don’t know if I can pass up!

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.

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.

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!

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!
