I don’t like it but I’ve been reading that you need to wear a mask while running so I got this sweat-wicking, breathable mask!! I am 100% into wearing multiple necklaces so acquiring this Larissa Loden necklace! I’ve been researching and confirmed the BEST face masks I’ve used to date are these

consignment find

Over the years, I’ve become a bigger consignment store junkie than ever — some of my best purchases are secondhand or vintage finds, and this latest one is no different. My golden rule when consignment shopping, accessories first: they’re quicker to look through, give you a good indication of what you’ll find in the rest of the store, and are those items that are not weight-dependent (so I don’t have to try them on to see/know if they fit)!

summer jewelry

With the grey skies and rain, this is about the time of year when I begin to turn my attention to warmer temps, or at least to locations with sunnier weather. And as part of that, I start to think of my accessories first – – – regardless of what clothing I’m acquiring or reusing from last year, a pop of fun jewelry is not color or weight-dependent! This week I found a beautiful abstract choker necklace at Of A

After-Work Political Mixer Look

It’s a question all of us have to answer especially in a city like DC, or anyone who dares to brave the next nine months of election hoopla. I love this look because it’s not too dressy or over-the-top but also not too casual (the kiss of death!). It takes basic black and adds a bit of metallic to add pop and polish! Every woman on the go should own a tuxedo jacket {MUST HAVE #4} like this one by Religion

While I am not a fan or frequent peruser of eBay, this is where you’ll need to go to find this piece.  But, with this necklace that has an adjustable clasp and malleability, it’s a terrific conversation piece.

Feathers for Everyone

The use of feathers whether as part of a skirt or boots is ripe for ridicule this fall but, if you want to join in the feather-follies but do it with panache, let Blueprint recommend this pewter necklace with feather design.  It’s got some weight and presence but isn’t too much as to overpower a simple shift dress or evening dress with a full faille skirt.  At a mere $120 at Ted Baker, it’s perfect for this fleeting fall fashion
