Breast Cancer Awareness




My grandmother is a breast cancer survivor so I would do anything to support the search for a cure. And luckily for us, we can now support the cause and look good doing it. Many designers and retailers now offer products during October that give a percentage to non-profit organizations that are dedicated to finding the cure to end breast cancer. These finds are just are few that are out there.

Are you ready for fall?










You aren't truly ready for fall until you have made your first boot purchase. I'm sure you think you have all the possible colors and styles but I doubt you have invested in a pair of OTK (over the knee) boots. This is a must have this season! Wear them with a heel for the evening and flats for the day.

DIY Necklace

After my last post I had to add this. If you are creative, this would be so easy to do and much more affordable. The combination of beads and clasps are so intricate and lovely. I might just have to try this one myself. StyleMePretty is a great resource for brides and event planners and this is just another fabulous idea from them. Follow the link for instructions.


Stunning Necklaces






























I have been searching far and wide for gray jewelry. My bridesmaids' dresses have inspired me to find the perfect necklace for my girls. It's not the most common color but it's so gorgeous. These finds are all fabulous. I'll let you know which one I pick.
