A Statement

Big statement pieces of jewelry are just so easy. One piece can add so much to an outfit, and if an outfit is basic it just adds that much more. Personally if I go for a statement piece I pretty much keep everything else to a minimum--makeup, hair, clothes, accessories--and let the one piece shine. I have had my eye on this Erica Lyons necklace ever since my boss showed me the collection a few months ago. What do you think about statement jewelry?
I'm off to see Bridesmaids tonight with one of my friends. Have a great Friday!

Camera Creeping like Crazy

I NEED WANT A NEW CAMERA...but the ones I am looking into are so expensive. Okay, okay, when I say, "looking into" I mostly mean typing "good digital SLR camera" into Google and seeing $800-$1,000 options which leads to my next thoughts, "no way compadre!" I know nothing about photography (except that one class I took in high school for my art credit) but I do know that I love taking pictures when I am on vacation, out with friends, and doing outfit posts for my blog...my Nikon Coolpix is just not cutting it. Every time I take a picture it looks pixilated and blurry so I must resort to the help of my friends cameras or use Mac Photobooth (which is decent but not the quality I am looking for). You see, I am a perfectionist, I need everything to be just so, and although I am learning to roll with the punches of things not being "perfect," I think having pride in the pictures I blog and post about is important. Therefore I need your help! What kind of cameras do you use? Where did you get them? Is eBay even a place to consider looking? I would ideally like something at the lower end of the camera-price-range...oh and easy to use because I'm a novice-beginner-so-make-my-life-easy-please-help-me-kind-of-girl!
Last night I met up with some friends at the bar. It's always nice to catch up over some red sangria...then white sangria...then tequila shots? Maybe I should cool it? It's my last semester though and classes didn't start yet, I think this makes it okay. Last night I wore:
Blazer: Dalia Collection (with leather wrap belt), Leggings: clearance at Marshalls (with leg zipper detail on back), Blouse: Mossimo for Target (silk blend), Boots: Sam Edelman, Watch: Michael Kors, Necklaces: gifted from Aunt

Ocean State Living

This is just a quick little post...I went to the beach with one of my best and oldest friends today. It was great catching up and wandering one of the local beaches just talking and laughing like old times. I am determined to do as much as I can in Rhode Island during my last semester of undergrad! It was pretty chilly at the beach so I wore:
Sweater: American Eagle Outfitters, Flannel: Forever21 long sleeve t-shirt, Jeans: Forever21 Skinny, Shoes: Sperry Top-Siders, Necklaces: initial and name plate (gifted from my Aunt Lisa), Watch: Michael Kors
 




Happy Thursday Everyone!
