homecoming. 10.26.2012

 

 Blouse & skirt: Forever 21. Booties: Target. Jewelry: gifted & vintage. Nails: "Stormy" by Revlon.

It's homecoming weekend here at the University of Missouri (aka Mizzou) and I'm so excited! So, in honor of this fabulous weekend, here is a homecoming-inspired look! Can you tell our colors are black and gold? :) Homecoming is really important at Mizzou because it was started here (in 1911!) and it's a great opportunity for students, alumni, and families to gather together. I can't wait for the football game tomorrow and all of the other festivities.

In case your favorite team's color are also black & gold, or you love the classic combination, here are some glam ways to wear the colors!

tuesday twist: 4 ways to wear a fancy skirt {part 3}. 7.24.2012

 Skirt: Target (old). Strapless cami: PacSun. Beaded clutch and sparkly ring: vintage. Studded heels: Aldo (I like these and these). Watch: Fossil. Pearl wrap bracelet: gifted. Nails: "Minted" by Revlon. 

I know I've shown a couple of more casual ways that I wear this skirt, so this week for Tuesday Twist I wanted to do something a little fancier! Black is always a go-to when I want to dress up, and I liked how much the pink tulle stood out against a simple top. 

   I've realized that all of my favorite pieces of jewelry have been gifts or passed down to me at some point. The freshwater pearl wrap bracelet I'm wearing here was a gift to me on my 8th birthday from my late grandmother. I love how timeless pearls are and that I adore this bracelet even more now than I did when she gave it to me! Similarly, the silver spoon ring I always have on belonged to my mom when she was younger, and I've worn it nearly every day since she passed it down to me. I guess I just love looking down and thinking of special times and people in my life...

What's your favorite piece of jewelry that's been given to you from someone special?

xo,
