I mean lets be real. Accessories are a girls best friend. Every time I open a box, unwrap it's goodness, and try on that piece of heaven....okay you get it. In all seriousness it's not diamonds that win my heart over, it's any type of jewelry. 

My favorite accessories this summer is this fun neon tassel necklace I got last year in a cute little boutique. However, I was so excited when I spotted all of these adorable tassels here from Shopbellac! These tassel bracelets from Baublebar as well here...ugh #swoon. I'm sure it comes in no surprise either...that I totally crush on anything gold. I'm slightly  ridiculously smitten by this Baublebar Gold Spiked Bib here and wait for it....the necklace I wear over like its going out of style here from Baublebar is $20 for a limited time!! Girl, you would be crazy not to. 

Anyways...I feel like its totally unacceptable not to share my go to- Aka best of the best jewelry hot spots!

1. Baublebar- After my first order, I became forever committed. The turn around time alone is amazing and the packaging...now that's just fun! Trust me when I say...you need Bauble jewels in your life. Like yesterday! Currently crushing here and here. 

2. Stella & Dot: Speaking of delivering...Stella & Dot is without a doubt top notch quality! I literally have worn my spiked gold bracelet here and recently re-purchased one because I'm that in lust with it. Talk about not wanting to let go....woofta. My current favorites are here and here. I have mad love for cocktail rings. 

3. Nordstrom: Need I say more?! It's like The Mall of America of jewelry. What I love about online shopping and Nordstrom in particular is the search bar. Its as easy as typing in "necklace..." instantly getting a variety of options, and choosing a color and price. It pretty much shops for you ;). I recently committed to this Kendra Scott turquoise tassel necklace here that I've been eyeing for a year now!! I can't wait to bust this beauty out and take her on a night out...ha ha. BUT REALLY. 

4. Ily Couture: Not only is Hellofashion Blog amazing...but hello reasonable jewelry and other accessory cuteness! I've been going back and forth between this fun neon statement necklace here and this Geo Pendant here. Decisions...decisions! 

FYI: How cute are these Old Navy shorts? Palm tree print is a must this season! What's your favorite print?! 

Thanks for stopping by!

In all seriousness... I took it upon myself to take three straight days away from MOST {I repeat} most social media platforms...and I'm sorry but that's serious. This girl is committed and never turns her back on a great sale or outfit find. Twas nice...very nice.

Can we talk about this amazing lace bell sleeved tunic? Perfect for summer with its light material and feminine touch. I found this tunic from a cute boutique in Iowa City. I couldn't locate it online...but I linked several of my favorite tunics for the summer. You can't go wrong pairing white with the perfect neutral sandal and...I'm crushing, like my middle school crush on Leonardo Dicaprio in Titanic....crushing. I can always count on ShoeDazzle to deliver. Their selection and fast shipping make it all too easy! You can sign up and receive your first pair of shoes at 50% here, but why stop there? Each month you're giving {yes giving} the option to either purchase another pair at $39.95 or skip for the month. It's the perfect win win! FYI: The same goes for Justfab here! Just a little in on my shoe secrets that make my closet happy ;)

Orange You Glad for Cute Summer Dresses

Orange Chiffon Skater Dress: Shopbellac similar here and here {In three different colors} | Nude Wedges similar here, here and adore these Nordstrom pair here | Tan Clutch: Similar here {wish list here} | Necklace: Baublebar | Bracelets: Stella & Dot here, here, and here 

Happy Saturday loves! Is it me or can the weekends be intimidating? I'm definitely in most ways Type B personality... but when it comes to feeling like I have things to do... I can quickly become Type A. Other times I look at everything on my list of things "to do" and avoid it at all costs {kind of like right now, ha ha....}. Yes, I am in fact an avid list maker. No that doesn't put me in the OCD category. My theory is...if it's in your head it's not safe. If its on a piece of paper... your good to forget it and revisit it next week {or month}.

Anyways enough with the Friedman talk and more about this to die for Shopbellac Orange Chiffon Skater dress! Although this particular dress is sold out I've linked similar dresses that I adore from Nordstrom here, Shopbellac here, and Impressions Boutique here. These are my go to summer shops! They have such a great selection of fun prints, vibrant colors, and prices! Whether your on the look out for the perfect summer dress, a fun night out with the girls, or wedding attire, these would be the perfect choices {budget friendly}! 

YAY- It's the weekend! Sit back, forget about the "to dos," and RELAX!

Bauble Over This Look

Blouse: HM | White Denim: Similar here, here and here {all under $100 at Nordstrom} | Shoes: Similar here and here | Purse: Michael Kors | Necklace: BaubleBar | Watch: Michael Kors | Bracelet: Stella & Dot, Stella Dot | Bow Ring: Similar here | Lips: Mac | Lip Liner: Mac

Spring is well on its way and the grass is just starting to turn green, however the weather here in Iowa has been cold and dreary. I don't know about you, but the only time I enjoy rain is with a relaxing thunderstorm, curled up in bed, with a nice cup of coffee, and a Nicolas Sparks book {Yes, I said relaxing thunderstorm}. 

With spring coming I couldn't resist this blouse that I purchased from HM for $18 {I'm all about the bargain}! I loved how it paired nicely with this adorable BaubleBar Antarctica Ring Pendant Necklace here. If you haven't noticed, I'm in "girl lust" over BaubleBar's Jewelry. It's perfectly priced and the quality is fantastic. I always get compliments when I'm wearing a piece of their jewelry! Shh...I'm still in lust over Stella & Dot jewelry pieces as well {#madlove}! 

Now onto to these amazing heels {My steal vs. splurge} {aka not your Valentino's, but pretty close}! These are from last year, but I linked similar ones above because I'm smitten over how easy these die for heels {with the fur studs} can be paired with the perfect jean or dress. These white denim are also from last year and just an FYI: excuse me if you see these on repeat, I'm slightly {#obsessed}. 

Happy Hump Day!

Grey Tunic: HM  {under $20!} love this here // White Tank: Similar here and here // Distressed Denim: Nordstrom // Strappy Sandals: Similar here and love these in tan here // White Snakeskin Clutch: Similar here {GiGi New York, ADORE} // Lip: Mac {Cream in Your Coffee} with Mac {Stripdown Lip Liner} Necklace: Stella & Dot {My absolute go to} // Bracelets: Stella & Dot here and here 

I have to brag about my latest find you all.  I've been on the hunt for the perfect distressed boyfriend jean..not to mention having spent countless hours roaming the Internet but coming up empty handed {#completefail}. Finally, my friend Brooke and I thought it would be fun to take a spontaneous trip to the ole' Mall of America. You know, every woman's dream and every guys nightmare? Not only was I determined, but she as well. Of course our first stop was to Nordstrom {#nordygirlsforlife} can you say {#thisgirlwasinheaven}. 

So, after trying on 100+ pairs, in all honestly I think Brooke had me beat, I found these amazingggg BLANKNYC' distressed denim and let me tell you...I'M OBSESSED. Not to mention there the perfect price at $88 dollars. A spring/summer staple piece for sure ladies. I can't wait to just throw these on with a perfect Tee and a cute summer sandal. Anyways, I hope you enjoy your Sunday Funday....I'm off to finish a 12 hour shift. Wish me luck, but who needs luck when you have coffee :). 

Thanks for stopping loves!
