What to Wear: Floral Inspired Jewelry

By Leave a Comment

I can say that I now absolutely love floral prints. If you would have asked me about these prints about three years ago I would have said “I hate wearing flowers.” I guess I was still a bit traumatized from when I was younger and my mom dressed me in florals that I hated. Now you really can’t get me out of them lol. If you were like me and declared that you would never wear a floral print top, dress, skirt, or even pants, you can still rock the look.

Try floral inspired jewelry like bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and rings. This will ease you into these fun prints without it being overwhelming. Here are a few pieces that I love and they are all under $50.

1928 Jewelry Pink Medley Flower Necklace $38

Nordstrom Etchings Floral Cutout Cuff  $48

Monet Spring Flower Bracelet $25

Ollipop Vintage Floral Locket Bracelet $45

Fab Under $50: Crop Tops

By Leave a Comment

I have neglected on of my favorite features! I can’t let this happen again. I’m back with this weeks Fab Under $50 post. One major “It Item” for spring is the crop top. I know some of you are like “Crop Tops? Not with this belly” I feel the same way. Almost anyone can wear a cropped top, it just depends what you pair it with.

If you do not want your stomach exposed, I suggest you layer a crop top over a tank top or camisole. You can still get the look, but with more coverage. Also the best way to wear a crop top and not look to juvenile or show parts of your body you do not want is to pair the top with a high-waisted skirt or high-waisted trousers or jeans. Once again you still achieve the look of the crop top but with more coverage.

Since crop tops are not full shirts, I don’t believe in paying more than $50 for it. Am I wrong?

Here are some great options  that are under $50
