I know, I know! Everyone says statement necklaces are out & layering necklaces is in. I can’t help it, but I love a bold piece, especially one in a color I can’t resist. Case in point: green!
While I do love a tote for fun beach days & running errands, as well as a classic clutch for special occasions, my favorite kind of functional bag for the every day is a crossbody bag (obviously, see post here, here, & here). Not to mention that quilted & chain details elevate crossbody bags & that’s exactly what’s featured today!
Honestly, I can’t decide which green crossbody I love more–the Kelly green or the olive, although the olive is a perfect match for most fall looks! I’ve never been disappointed by a crossbody bag from A New Day, especially after much wear & tear on weekends, between jobs, & when I’m just momming around with the requirement that my hands be free.
With all the necessities that go into planning a vacation, road trip, weekend getaway, or beach day, a sturdy & spacious tote is a must! Aside from a canvas find with a playful saying in it, consider crochet to accessorize your next summer adventure, especially with just under 16 inches in height & width!
With temperatures rising, I’m always looking for comfortable & lightweight clothing to wear that’s stylish & special. Usually, I downplay my accessories game since I don’t like the feeling of various metals on my skin when spending the day outside in the sun. However, there’s a chic ease of a bracelet with a maxi dress & wedges, tank & linen shorts, or blouse & joggers, which is why I’m recommending these fabulous finds:
Just like my penchant for the same clothing items in multiple colors & patterns, jewelry in varying metal tones is a must-have, especially when recently & deeply discounted. This time of year is perfect to gift baubles to a bride-to-be, recent graduate, or bestie for a birthday in chic white gold, classic yellow gold, or (my favorite) rose gold. These 5 picks from Walmart are $24.99 & under—marked down from $69.00 & up, & I can’t decide which are my favorites!
Sometimes, the most statement-making jewels don’t include any sparkles or gemstones. I love a strong piece on gold, silver, or rose as a neutral against brighter pieces like a red blouse, purple dress, or green sweater.
SHOP:floral earrings @LOFT (on sale: $24.99, use code: CYBER for extra 50% off).
Depending on the look you’re going for, I wouldn’t recommend wearing these pieces together, but they’re perfect with more subtle accessories for any occasion any time of year, including a summer wedding, weekend gathering with friends, or date night.
Sometimes the hardest part of a day at the beach is planning what to bring. Having not only a stylish, but spacious bag to carry all your beach essentials in makes all the difference. Depending on your company or destination, you may want some options in your summer accessories arsenal.
While I love all things animal print, I love the more tropical & bolder options & for such an affordable price. Which tote do you like best? What are your beach bag essentials?

Summer is the perfect time of year to play up color in your accessories, whether you’re wearing a maxi dress, printed romper, off-the-shoulder top & linen shorts, or a t-shirt & jeans. Not to mention, one of the trendiest textures for accessories is raffia, which makes a bold & playful statement all season long.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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!
Even though we’re still in the early days of spring, summer is just around the corner. Likewise, tropical embellishments, accessories, & prints are hitting stores. If you’re like me & you love a kitschy & playful twist on seasonal style, then these new earrings are for you!
Personally, I’m a big fan of the pineapple earrings, especially with the rainbow stones, which will coordinate well with last season’s graphic tees, maxi dresses, or sundresses when attending a family barbecue, outing with girlfriends, or casual Friday at work.
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!
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.
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.
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!

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!
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!
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!
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:
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.
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.
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.
With last weekend’s dazzling Academy Awards, I’ve got my mind on big baubles for spring, including flower & butterfly-encrusted jewels to layer with solid pieces, a graphic print ensemble, or other florals. If your jewelry collection is in need of a refresh, check out these must-haves:
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?
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?!
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!
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.
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:
If you’re looking for a last-minute Valentine’s or Galentine’s gift for a lovely loved one, then head over to Macy’s star for a gift set bargain! Better yet, get these for yourself!
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.
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:
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?
