A few must-haves

As someone teaching themselves to be fashionable, I am learning accessories are just as flattering to an outfit as any cut or color. Even when I do add some form of jewelry it's very simple and basic. 


That being said, I am in love with this month's accessories at my store! We have my simple add-ons, but even the ones offering bursts of color are just as cute. This is so bad, guys, I'm going to be so broke...

1. Sweet Chain Necklace

2. Mini Birdcage Pendant

3. Pink Jade Necklace

4. Leaf Love Bracelet

5. Around the World Necklace

6. Leaf Love Necklace

7. Pearl Cluster Necklace

8. Eyes on Me Pendant

9. Heirloom Necklace

These are just a few that my store received, although there's a good handful we're still waiting on. But if you're impatient like me you can always order Downeast online. They currently offer the standard shipping rate (which is $6.50 at the moment) and right now all clearance is an additional 50% off (use code: FALL50 if shopping online).

What outfits could you seeing pairing these gems with?

The First of Fall

As an American white girl, can I even convey to you how much I love October? Pumpkin flavored everything, cute Halloween costumes, awesome layered outfits?

Unfortunately, in Arizona, Fall doesn't really exist. And when it does decide to show up, it's for about a week, and then we are immediately thrown into Winter. But by golly, that is the greatest week :)

Over the next couple of weeks I'll be putting together as many fall-inspired outfits possible that are still suitable for Arizona's lack of weather.

To start, here's a cute summer-y kimono turned autumn!

Watch: Hot Topic

Ring: Urban Outfitters (I actually got mine on clearance at a San Diego location, so sorry it's not on the site! There are a few pretty similar to it, though)

Shoes: Payless Shoesource

Kimono: Neslay Designer, N1805, found at Downeast Basics, along with:

Workin' It Trousers | Half Sleeve Tee | Bee Jeweled Pendant

Also, if you visit your local Downeast Basics, they're doing an awesome promotion from now until Oct. 19th! Buy any of the Live for Pink layering tees, and they'll donate 50% of the proceeds towards the fight against breast cancer.

The Scarlet...pants?

My first question for you all: Yay or Nay to red pants? Or any colored pants?

Second question: Is it too soon to wear them??

Cause I'd really like to wear them, if that's cool.

I guess red pants and a black & white striped-tee really go hand in hand. I'm really digging the navy blouse, though, but is it too patriotic...? Maybe save for Independence Day? 

I dunno, you tell me! Leave a comment on this post, I'd love to hear back!
