~ accessories make me a happy girl. i probably spend more money on shoes, jewels and bags than i do on clothing. pretty accessories are the best way to change up constant wardrobe staples and outfits, giving them a fresher look, newer color combinations and more fun. my wardrobe isn't the biggest considering the industry i work in. i tend to be very relaxed in my clothing choices, jeans almost always and cute sweaters, cardigans, tshirts and the likes. ive recently gotten into buying more dresses. comfort is always key for me but ive been paying more attention to what i've been buying and finding that i can dress a little nicer and still be comfortable. i went to a wedding on sunday and wore a dress i've had for a while but dressed it up a bit. it was a day time wedding so sparkly glam it was. these shoes from nine west are THE most comfortable heels i've bought to date. heels are not my friend; a high school sports injury has made high heels an enemy of mine. truth be told, i don't own a pair of stilettos or pumps. strappy sandals and heels are where i am more comfortable and can walk around without looking like i'm going to topple over. image my surprise finding these heels and feeling like i could run a marathon in them. charge it! i'm a big fan of sparkly earrings and spend way too much time on bauble bar, browsing and buying, browsing and buying. i have a lot of hair, a fairly large head and an oval shaped face so big earrings work for me. these beauties are just so darn pretty. they aren't available anymore but bauble bar has TONS of gorgeous statement earrings. i don't get to wear them too often but when i do, i get so many compliments. statement pieces=investment pieces. now, my sparkly clutch is a whole nother story. this clutch used to be a french connection vest. i'd had it in my closet for years, never having worn it and not really knowing the best way to pull it off. i didn't want to give it up because it was so pretty so i thought what could i do with it? i saw a bunch of sparkly clutches on some of the blogs and follow and *light bulb moment* turn the vest into a clutch! i posses no sewing skills whatsoever but luckily, i work in fashion and know many designers who do. my good friend Vincent Lee used his magic fingers and sewed this gorgeous sparkler up for me. one-of-a-kind ~
