Accessories Haul: My Spring/Summer Collection

This was my accessory board before Tuesday evening. It was very lackluster and uninspiring. I would gravitate toward the same pieces over and over. Things that I once loved did not do it for me anymore. I was bored and noticed that I lacked color. (It feels like I’m talking about a relationship here lol). Anyway, on Tuesday I went to my favorite accessories place and picked up a few pieces that would give me a pick me up for the spring and summer.

This was my board before

This is my board now

It is amazing how a little color goes a long way.

Check out the pieces that I added to more board when you continue

Can you believe I only paid $50 for all of these pieces? I was surprised and excited when they told me my total.

I love these earrings because of their size. They are huge but they are light weight which is exactly what I was looking for. Heavy earrings stretch your ear lobes and these feel as light as a stud.

Turquoise is always in season for the spring/summer. It adds just the right amount of color.

Pink is my favorite color but you would never know considering I don’t own any pink jewelry besides a pink pearl bracelet my brother bought me years ago when he studied abroad.

I don’t know why I bought two orange necklaces lol I guess one will be for the shop and swap next week.

These are my three favorite pieces. I wanted a wooden necklace for my safari looks and I fell in love with the orange necklace as soon as I looked at it. The teal necklace also came in purple and pink but I felt this color was more bold. I may go back for the purple and pink.

I love the fact I purchased mainly sets too. Its hard finding earrings to compliment certain necklaces and now I don’t have that problem.

Now my next step is reorganizing my board or purchasing an additional one. I find that cork boards are perfect for organizing your accessories. You get a clear picture of all of the items that you have so when you go shopping you know exactly what  you need. The boards are relatively inexpensive (depending on sized) they can cost anywhere from $1 to $20 and you can purchase push-pins at the dollar store.
