The time is now to hop aboard the Kohl’s train with their major clearance blowouts, Kohl’s Cash (if you have it), & summer sales, including some must-have accessories to wear all year long. One of my favorite fashion jewelry brands, LC Lauren Conrad, knows a thing or two about chic subtlety when it comes to jewelry for special occasions, a professional look, or for the everyday outfit.

Accessories Access: A Leopard Crossbody for Your Next Weekend Getaway!


I’ve been loving carrying a lighter load with me on weekends & now that my weekday work responsibilities have lightened by using my silver croc crossbody, but I like to also alternate it with another stylish option to get the most wear out of it. Not to mention, I was seeing an animal print or more subtle neutral to wear moving ahead through summer into fall.

SHOP: Universal Thread Cayden crossbody bag in leopard @Target ($25.00, also available in black, cognac, olive, & cream).

I love the larger size of this crossbody without the bulk of a shoulder bag tote, as well as the smooth fabric & chic print. As my family is planning some upcoming haunts, I’m a little more stylish when on the go & headed for a fun time!

Accessories Access: The Prettiest Necklace for Under $10!


I’m definitely a jewelry addict—this, I know. If there’s a mega-sale, I’m on it. Since last week was Mother’s Day, naturally, I treated myself to some must-have can’t-miss deals, including one of the prettiest necklaces that I really just want to wear every. single. day.

SHOP: Charter Club two-tone crystal palazzo long station 42” necklace @Macy’s (on sale: $9.86).

I love the gold & silver tones, as well as the bling & length for a variety of blouses, pullover sweaters, maxi dresses, especially when looking to keep the accessorizing light when the temperatures start to rise. Check out my photos of the necklace against a bold pop of Barbie-core pink!

Accessories Access: Fashion Jewelry Must-Have Gifts for Mother’s Day!


Budget shoppers recognize the importance of getting a great deal & making the most of an occasion. When it comes to Mother’s Day, a hefty price tag isn’t necessarily the way to a mother’s heart. However, some sparkle does get there—to some degree. Whether you’re a mother, have one, or not, let’s just talk about a pretty bracelet!

SHOP: I.N.C. International Concepts baguette crystal slider bracelet in gold-tone & rose gold-tone @Macy’s (on sale: $8.83-$14.73).

I can’t decide which one to get, especially at such a major discount from its original $29.50 price. I’m a sucker for rose gold, but both are classic & dazzle for a variety of occasions.

Accessories Access: A Classic Crossbody for All Spring & Summer Long!


My latest obsession is a crossbody bag. I’d been using the same one on weekends for a few weeks now, but then it went & broke on me right before a recent family getaway. While I do love using the silver croc-embossed version I recently posted about here, crossbody bags seem to be popping up everywhere!

SHOP: A New Day saddle crossbody bag in gray @Target (on sale in stores: $12.50, on sale online: $21.25).

While this is somewhat smaller than what I usually like to wear, I do love the neutral metallic hue that will look great with a casual look, such as a peasant top & denim cut-offs, or a date night ensemble, like a maxi dress & cardigan. Shoppers, look for this in your local Target stores to get the best deal, which you can see below, is available en masse near me.

Accessories Access: Spring’s Most Versatile Crossbody Bag!


When it comes to running out & about, whether for fun or errands, a crossbody is my go-to. I’ve fallen into the habit of changing out my massive weekday tote to a smaller crossbody for weekends, especially when needing to be mobile with my little one. This newest crossbody is not only versatile for its removable strap, but also stylish for any spring occasion, including a family party, date night, or al fresco brunch with girlfriends.

SHOP: A New Day straw chain shoulder handbag in natural, green, & pink @Target (on sale: $28.00).

I love the contrast of the tortoise chain, especially in the green & pink options, but when simplifying the look, I love the thinner strap. How would you style this bag? Which color do you prefer?

One earring style that’s always on trend is a hoop, which has been reimagined in so many varieties & still remains classic. While hoops aren’t my go-to first choice of earring, I do love what I’m seeing with these new styles on sale now!

Accessories Access: Bargain Bling You’ll Wear for Every Special Occasion!


I’m so guilty of—time & time again—succumbing to sparkle. If it’s on sale or a deep final sale discount, I’m shattered! I have no backbone! I want it! I want to style it! I want to write about it!

SHOP: Charter Club gold-tone pavé & color stone pear shape bracelet @Macy’s (final sale: &8.83).

SHOP: Charter Club two-tone crystal palazzo bracelet @Macy’s (final sale: $8.83).

SHOP: Charter Club silver-tone color crystal & stone cluster bracelet @Macy’s ($8.83).

After all, isn’t every day a special occasion? Rarely a day goes by without wrist adornment & lately, I’ve been layering since there are so many gorgeous pieces that look even more spectacular when paired up with others. I have all 3 of the above & I already have then prepped for outfits this week! They sparkle in the light, have some quality weight to them, & are easy to adjust, so I recommend them for early Mother’s Day presents or just for yourself, if you’re into bling!

Accessories Access: Last Chance for Rose Gold Bangles for Under $9!


I love the availability & trend of rose gold fashion jewelry. The pink hue highlights so many brilliant wardrobe colors & adds an extra splash of femininity to any outfit. I wear rose gold everyday with my wedding band & engagement ring, no matter any of my other jewelry, but when I can go all out in rose gold, I do!

SHOP: Charter Club filigree bangle bracelet @Macy’s (on sale: $8.83).

SHOP: Charter Club pavé twist hinged bangle bracelet @Macy’s (on sale: $8.83).

Accessories Access: These Earrings are for the Birds!


Throughout the year, I like to have fun with my stud earrings, mixing up a quintet of studs in colorful, tasteful, & stylish ways since most days, I fill my 5 piercings in each ear with great variety. I love adding a fruit into the mix, but from time to time, an animal also appears, including birds! I’ve had my eye on these for some time now:

SHOP: LC Lauren Conrad bird stud earrings @Kohl’s (on sale: $6.00).

I love the orange-blue-green-white color combination, especially against the gold-tone. It’s a bright, playful addition to any look & adds a spring touch against a tunic sweater & leggings or midi dress & duster cardigan.

Accessories Access: A Silver Crossbody for Weekend or Date!


I’m a sucker for a chic, slim crossbody bag that will help keep me light when on the go, but also adds to my outfit. Recently, Target has been my go-to for such great accessory finds at an affordable price.

SHOP: A New Day alligator print double gusset crossbody in metallic silver @Target (on sale: $14.40).

This is a chic option for when my day includes not only a brunch or al fresco lunch plans, but heading out & about for a family occasion in a blouse & trousers, maxi dress & cardigan, or midi dress & drop earrings. Other varieties of this bag (minus the alligator embossed texture) include black, olive, green, & electric blue at varying price points.

Accessories Access: 3 Must-Have Pendant Necklaces!


As always, I’m a sucker for one of each, especially when it’s a classic item that can coordinate with nearly any look. This is Aldi the case when I’m thinking about jewelry—do I get the gold, rose gold, or silver? However, for the right price, why not get all 3?

SHOP: Time & Tru crystal stone delicate pendant necklace in gold-tone, rose gold-tone, & silver-tone @Walmart ($3.88).

These charming, yet stylish pendants are perfect for any button-down, as well as a mandarin collar blouse. The peek of some sparkle is a chic finishing touch—& how could you go wrong with the price?!

Accessories Access: A Classic, Silver Anti-Statement Necklace for Under $6!


For yesterday’s (mild) snow day, I wanted an easy, but chic work look that kept me warm & felt effortless. I knew my knee boots were in order, along with velvet leggings, but I volleyed between sweater & accessories options until I realized that I hadn’t broken out my new silver necklace!

SHOP: Time & Tru Eb brushed necklace in silver @Walmart ($5.88, available in 18 inches).

Once I happily settled on the necklace, I immediately thought of my purple dolman sweater since silver & purple are such a glorious pairing. I love how classic this necklace is, while also being lightweight, adjustable in length, & a no-fuss kind of necklace, which is why I call it my anti-statement necklace. It has just enough shine, but it’s not too much. Not to mention that the price is right! I’d love to also contrast the subtle texture on the necklace with a floral or stripe print, along with cobalt & powder pink tops.

Accessories Access: Bright & Beaded Earrings from SUGARFIX by BaubleBar!


Since my work week includes 2 night at my second job, I sometimes have the opportunity to change outfits from the typical gussied-up classroom look to something more laid back, but still fashionable. This usually entails—at least at this time of the year—a cozy pullover sweater & a big earring or necklace that might otherwise be too “extra” for the day. I’ve had my eye on several “big” earrings lately & can’t wait to hop on board this next bright beadwork accessories trend:

SHOP: SUGARFIX by BaubleBar beaded tassel earrings in pink & red @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: SUGARFIX by BaubleBar beaded tassel statement earrings in green, pink, blue, & white @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: SUGARFIX by BaubleBar textured beaded hoop statement earrings in green, black, pink, & blue @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: Charter Club gold-tone pavé & color stone pendant necklace & stud earrings set in blue, purple, & red & Charter Club cushion-cut crystal pendant necklace & stud earrings set in blue, white & brown @Macy’s (on sale $8.83).

At such a can’t-miss final sale price, how could you go wrong with any of these sets? I’m not usually one to coordinate exactly when it comes to jewelry as I prefer to mix it up, but a classic pendant like this can be worn for a special occasion, with a collared shirt, or layered with other chains.

Accessories Access: Spring-tastic Multicolor Fashion Jewelry from LOFT!


If there’s one retailer that’s been catching my eye when it comes to jewelry & accessories this past winter season, it’s LOFT. Now that the winter statement pieces are on deep discount, the deals just keep getting better & better! Also, as we slowly move away from the dark, rich hues of winter layers & sweaters, it’s time to start embracing (or, at least, planning for) pastels for spring separates. I have just the jewelry deal for pretty pinks, sweet greens, lovely lavenders, & sparkling peaches for you!

SHOP: gem statement necklace @LOFT (on sale: $9.00).

SHOP: gem statement earrings @LOFT (on sale: $9.00).

SHOP: gem huggie earrings @LOFT (on sale: $10.00).

SHOP: gem drop earrings @LOFT (on sale: $7.50).

I already nabbed the necklace for a great discounted price, but the matching earrings are definitely worth considering. I wouldn’t necessarily match the necklace with the earrings since I love to mix up matchy-matchy pieces with other items in my jewelry collection, but the colors bring a smile to my face & the sparkles are just… EVERYTHING!

THIS POST HAS BEEN UPDATED! The tassel earring trend isn’t going away as we move between seasons, & why should it? The pop of color & contrast of fabric for a fun date night look, when heading to a party, or adding some flair on a casual Friday at work. As tassel earrings styles come & go, we’ve gotta grab an amazing deal when we see one!

Accessories Access: Classic & Stylish Bracelets for Valentine’s Day!


I’m always on the lookout for dazzling baubles to add to my collection or recommend to readers & that includes classic pieces that can be worn for a day at the office or special occasion. Obviously, I love accessories that come in a variety of colors too, which brings me to today’s selection:

SHOP: Charter Club pavé & imitation pearl slide bracelet in tri-tone, gold, navy, pearl, rose, & red @Macy’s (on sale: $14.70).

Personally, I love mixed metals & rose gold, but I’m drawn to the red & navy options to pair with a blouse & pencil skirt with a cardigan & heels for work. For the discounted price, why not?

Accessories Access: The Boldest, Most Colorful Statement Necklaces of the Season!


It’s no secret that I love a statement necklace. Even when I doubt whether or not I should wear one because it’s too gaudy or extreme for a day in the office, I have to trust my first instinct in that I invested in the piece, have a vision for it, & wearing sparkly accessories is just a part of who I am, I should just embrace it, going for it with the right kind of look. During one of many recent forays clicking around New York & Company‘s website, I discovered the following 2 necklaces, 1 of which is already on stand-by to wear, & the other I’m waiting for to reduce in price.

SHOP: glass flower statement necklace @New York & Company (on sale: $35.97).

SHOP: multicolor glass link necklace @New York & Company (on sale: $23.97).

The flower necklace is the one I’m still thinking about, but if the right reward deal comes my way, I’ll definitely be adding it to my cart! With both necklaces, I love the color varieties, which offer a multitude of styling possibilities for a blouse, pullover sweater, jumpsuit, sheath dress, fit & flare dress, midi skirt outfit, or maxi dress. The cobalt blue tone stands out to me the most in these, but no matter what I may wear it with, I’d like to highlight the rich green & bright reds in it.

Accessories Access: Stylish Earrings Sets in Gold & Silver!


It’s a very rare occasion that I’m actually stuck with no idea what to wear, despite my plethora of options. When it comes to jewelry, I usually decide on the finer details the morning I am getting ready, especially for the work day ahead. Also, I have 5 piercings in each of my ears, which I fill every single “leaving the house” day & my collection continues to grow & sparkle. While I do love a long, dangly drop earring for a more dramatic look, my go-to for all 5 piercings is a stud. I love finding different stud sets so that the options coordinate together, but I also love mixing up new picks with some old favorites. For example:

SHOP: shooting star stud earring set in gold & silver @LOFT (on sale: $22.50 with code: TREAT).

Merry Stylish Christmas to all! Any time of year is a reason to get sparkly, but between today & New Year’s Eve, let’s go the extra mile when it comes to dazzling baubles. Recently, I learned that Macy’s carries an exclusive kind of fashion jewelry by high-end designer Givenchy, love by how luxury reaches the hands, necks, wrists, & ears of the budget-conscious Style Darling!

SHOP: Givenchy 2-piece crystal halo statement necklace & matching drop earrings in 6 colors @Macy’s (on sale Diamond Buy: $29.99).

I’m torn between the rose gold & emerald green designs, but could find ways to wear all of them, if I was so lucky! How would you style these jewels? Do you wear matching statement sets? Which color is your favorite?

Holiday Gift Style: Metallic Bags for All of Your Upcoming Parties!


For the day-to-day grind & weekend chores, I stick to one giant handbag. I’m very loyal to it until it falls apart; however, when heading out for a special occasion, I’m happy to downsize with something metallic, playful, & festive!

SHOP: Universal Thread crossbody bag in metallic bronze & metallic pink @Target ($25.00).

I gifted myself the pink bag with a gift card, but I’m also keeping my eye out for a holiday deal on accessories, so that I can add the chic, neutral metallic bronze to my collection too!
