My everyday jewelry

Hey!

When it comes to accessorizing, most people automatically think of jewelry. It honestly can just be adding a cute ring, necklace, or bracelet that adds that extra pizzazz to your outfit.

I have a ton of bracelets and necklaces, all of varying styles and materials, that I will add to make more of a statement to one of my outfits, but here are four pieces that I almost always have on.


The ring that I wear is a gold ring that used to belong to my sister, who is my biggest inspiration. I know, I know, it is on my ring finger and it spells out "love" so a lot of people ask me if I am engaged/married or if it is a promise ring. No, besides my pinky fingers, my ring finger is my thinnest finger.

The gold bangle under that ring, was given to me by my oldest friend whom I have known since I was about 3 or 4. It is thin and simple, with a very subtle design. I personally love very simple jewelry so I looove that bangle.

To the right,  the bracelet with the beads and star was most recently added to my collection and is a Juicy Couture bracelet one of my first friends in college gave to me this past Christmas.

Finally, under that is a very simple bracelet that has a treble clef pendant. I used to play piano and I think treble clefs are beautiful so a firned gave this to me for my 19th birthday almost two years ago.

All of these pieces hold a lot of meaning to me, so I very very rarely take them off. What jewelry do you love?

Out on the town... with a chill.

Hello!

So, last night a few friends and I decided to go out to help a friend of mine celebrate her 21st birthday. It was a Tuesday, and just about everyone around here knows that 101 Downtown Techno Tuesday is the place to be.

Only problem was, it was a bit chilly out, with the low being about 45 degrees!

It felt more in the fifties so it wasn't too bad, but it was still is a bit cold for your usual club attire.


In my opinion, the best thing that you can do when it gets a bit cold out, but you still want o enjoy a night out with your friends is to:

1. Find cute ways to layer up.
or
2.  Take advantage of tights!

I, the girl on the far left, decided to layer up by just adding a fitted blazer to my outfit. I have on a cream and pink crop top with a black body con skirt and tan heels. Just by adding the blazer, I warmed myself up and added a new element to the outfit that made it look more complete. Leslie and Katy, the two girls on the right, took advantage of tights by pairing them with fitted shorts and a skirt that also added warmth while also styling up an outfit that was already cute before.

Keep in mind, that once you get into whatever club or bar, you are going to, it will get really warm, really fast, so try to just not layer up with a parka... unless of course, you are partying in the North Pole with some polar bears.
