Bauble Basics.

Bauble Basics.




















Think the crisp white button down or little black dress. Basic pieces are the fundamentals of a chic woman. This applies to your jewelry box as well. I've been fortunate enough to garner some fabulous gifts from my parents over the years. (NOTE: I don't own diamond everything, but I do own similar pieces to those above. This set is not store/designer specific and similar styles and much lower price points are just as lovely!)

This is my basic bauble guide:

1. A simple pave band. Perfect for stacking or wearing alone - simple and beautiful.
2 A classic woman's watch. I love my Michael Kors GIANT watch, but my Tag Heuer works for interviews, layering with an arm full of bracelets and is a great everyday basic.
3.Pearl studs - I love a pair with extra detail.
4. Diamond studs. I received the most beautiful pair from my parents for my 21st birthday. I wear them almost religiously.
5. A simple cross necklace (or Star of David, Buddha...). Great alone or often layered.
6. Diamond by the yard necklace. Perfect example of budget friendly: I scored mine at Target for around $60! I wear it long or wrap it around my neck twice to wear it short. It compliments my other delicate necklaces lovely.
7. A pearl necklace (not the kind Samantha Jones wears).
8. A cocktail ring. Love this one from Kate Spade. I always find some great ones at Forever 21. Just make sure the rings you buy there are plastic, their metal rings will turn you green.
9. Silver hoops. Kyle Richards totally made me fall in love with giant hoops. Rosie Pope wears gold ones quite well. They look great with long flowing hair. TIP: Don't wear your hair up with hoops. You'll look like a cheesy rap video girl or a gang members girlfriend (brown lip liner optional).

Florsheim Shoes {closed}

Thank you to all that entered and congrats to EMMA for winning!  xo You know when you first meet a handsome boy, in my case it was a bar, and everything about him is near perfect. His chiseled features, dark shiny hair, and stunning light blue eyes. Then you look down, and gasp, he's wearing sneakers. Not your run of the mill, fashion forward footwear, but we are talking Nike, Adidas, etc. running shoes. He's wearing them in a bar, with jeans, and a polo. If you're anything like me, the only times tennis shoes are acceptable are on the elliptical machine or running a half marathon. This boy turned out to be the love of my life, and with little resistance I was able to turn him into my fashionable sidekick. With a little help from  Florsheim  you can take your Valentine from sorry to sexy with a pair of shoes courtesy of this luxury brand. I've put together some inspirational looks for you. Just remember, you may not able to c...

caged in.

If you follow me on Instagram  you've seen these flats pop up numerous times. I own them in nude and red, and to be 100% transparent just purchased a replacement nude pair. While they aren't the gorgeous $900 Valentino Rockstud Cage Flats , I could care less, I bought them because I LOVE the style. I wish I could make myself spend $900 on shoes; however, at this point traveling, decorating my new home and investing in my future are more important. I can't have it all! Those of you with Rockstuds : Yes, I'm jealous. If you'd like the link to these shoes, they are so comfy, follow me on Instagram and send me a direct message -  @McKerihan . Please note: I know there are many that have very strong opinions about knockoffs. These shoes do not bare the Valentino tag, nor do they replicate the exact design. They are simply 'inspired by'. If you're wearing anything from Forever 21, Old Navy, Gap, even lower priced brands from Nordstrom chances are your...
