I was browsing and ... (May Wishlist)

I've really been liking girly, very feminine styles, as you can clearly tell by the pastel and neutral colors, flowy bottoms and tops, light airy material, tulle and ruffles, and cute patterns (especially that dress with a bunch of dresses on it). I've just been embracing the warm weather that allows light and airy clothing, and I can't wait to share the new outfit posts coming up with you!

Street With Love

This is my first time doing a style inspiration type of post, but I really fell in love with Street With Love's blog.  I had been feeling slightly un-inspired, hence the serious lack of outfit posts, and I'm kind of worried that I might not be able to get at least ten posts up this month like I do every month for quite a while now. Then I came across this girl's blog and after looking through her entire blog post by post, drooling over the gorgeous clothing and photography, I started getting back into taking outfit pictures. So seriously, check out her blog, I mean of course assuming you're as slow as me and haven't come across her already. (:

Jeweled Tones

You've seen me style this fun geometric dress in a previous post, but this time, I wore it tucked into shorts as a top. I love the light airy fabric that allows this kind of versatility; it makes the possibilities endless, it seems. Keeping with the blue and purple colors, I paired the top with simple jean shorts, purple flats, and several charm bracelets. 

I'm definitely obsessed with the whole idea of stacking tons of bracelets together to form an "arm party", but I simply don't wear bracelets often enough to have that many. Luckily I dug up some old Aeropostale ones, and recently received a pretty white beaded one with three charms, a clock, a feather, and an anchor from Unique Beads. The earrings I have on are also from Unique Beads and came in a dainty set of also a clock, feather, and anchor. I absolutely love these brass feather ones. They kind of look like knives or daggers from far away. Haha.

Jade from the store also was kind of enough to share a code for my readers, onceuponasprinkle, that gives you a 15% discount. The store also offers some neat cross bracelets, which seem to be really popular, for great prices and in all sorts of colors. Definitely send them some love and check out their store.

I Wanna Hold Your Heart in Both Hands..

I'll watch it fizzle at the bottom of a Coke can,

And I've got no plans for the weekend;

So shall we speak then,

Keep it between friends,

Though I know you'll never love me like you used to.

-Ed Sheeran's Drunk

How absolutely gorgeous is this dress? The color, the eyelet detailing on the bottom half, the exposed zipper, and the sweetheart neckline. So in love with this dress, and the delicate gold leaf necklace from Foxy Originals looks perfect with the gold cuff, and would be fit for some Grecian costume, no? It hangs out the perfect length and is so delicate and pretty.  

By the way, don't forget to join my giveaway for a chance to win an iPhone case!

Thorns

I really wanted to focus on the accessories here, by creating an outfit using very basic pieces that most of us have in our closets, and edging it up with accessories. I emphasized the vneck using a triangle necklace, and added a spiked double ring. I'm in love with this incredibly dangerous ring that you can get at Rings and Tings! So check it out.

Salmon + Fox House Giveaway Winner

Wow, Cathy, way to slack off at the beginning of the month again. What's my excuse this time? Uh, AP tests and finals? I hope that's reasonable enough. Anyway, I wore this out today: a flowy black shorts-resembling-skirt, an orange/salmon top with a diamond pattern that I bought ages ago at f21 for $6 (Remember when forever 21 used to be inexpensive? It doesn't really seem that way anymore), a black studded belt, black converse, and a stunning, simple and delicate necklace from PetiteCo on etsy. 

Honestly, some of the stuff they make on etsy is absolutely amazing, and you would be supporting real individuals and their hobbies/jobs. I really recommend you check out PetiteCo if you like very dainty and simple jewelry. Some of my other favorites include their Color Block Bar Bracelet (link) and their Spike Bracelet (link). Their bracelets are really great for stacking together with others, if you're more into that than I am. But I'm obsessed with this necklace, and I pretty much wear it every day now.

As for the Fox House Giveaway, thank you to everyone who entered, and congratulations to V J C. Fox House will be contacting you very soon!

Hehe.
