Costume Jewelry

These are a few pieces of jewelry- not really costume jewelry I guess, but I like to call them that because they're my fun jewelry.  I wore my pear necklace today and it broke...which I think is a sign that I wear it too much?  Anyways....long necklaces and chunky bracelets are a staple in my wardrobe.

Both of these bracelets are Kenneth Jay Lane.  One's a giraffe and the other is an elephant...I have no idea why I love having animals in my jewelry, but over the years I've ended up collecting so many pieces that are just random objects.  I think they're the perfect thing to make a boring outfit more exciting.









The peacock is the newest, and I think right now it's my favorite.  I have more on my wishlist, but do you think at a certain point you can have too many animals on your jewelry box?  Kiiinda weird, but I like it.  It's like I have my own personal zoo.  Apparently when I was little I was obsessed with plastic animals, so I guess this is my way of satisfying that weird obsession as an adult.

Scarves Are Nice




Got this gem of a scarf in the mail yesterday from Forever 21. I think that scarves are the ultimate accessory.  I've been experimenting with different ways to wear a scarf and honestly the options are limitless.  The way you tie it can make or break your entire look.  I used to think if a it was too long or short that you couldn't wear it, but the longer you fool around with the way you drape it or tie it, the better your chances are of finding a kick-ass look.
So, next time you see a pattern you love on a scarf that looks crazy short or long...get it anyways.  Chances are, you'll figure it out.  More looks with scarves from around the web:
