two for one jewels: stella & dot style

who doesn't love a buy-one-get-one? well, with some of stella & dot's necklaces, you are getting just that (and with some other things, even three for the price of one). one of my favorite things about one of my latest obsessions is stella & dot's multiple ways to wear an item. and its not just multiple ways to wear a necklace, i got a pair of earrings that can be worn as a long chandelier, a stud or a shorter chandelier. statement jewelry doesn't get much better than that. stella & dot's spring collection is just gorgeous. on-trend, feminine and light, its just what i want adorning my ears, neck and wrists this spring. below are the newest additions to my jewelry box, ready to be worn!

sunday's lust list

getting back into the school routine has taken up most of my time this week and i haven't been able to get a post in! the past few days have been filled with tweaking things in my apartment, going to classes (i'm in for a hard semester) and seeing my friends! still, i have found time to do some online shopping! i am dreaming about quite a few new things that i have found so here is the latest lust list!

stella mccartney "the 70's flare" jean

kate spade "sabine" velvet flat 

tory burch regina calf hair bootie

tory burch collins fringe moccasin

tory burch fleming medium bag

halogen v-neck sleeveless jumpsuit

LEONA perfect party dress

today is another very special lady in my life's birthday: my grandmother. she is the reason i have red hair and my role model. if i am half the woman she is, i will be better than most. i am forever grateful for the close relationship we have. the redheads of the family have to stick together! today i am lucky to get to have lunch with her! after that, the online shopping will have to stop so that i can start getting back in the "you actually have homework now" groove. on the plus side of school starting back up, it will be football time in tennessee this time next week! go vols!

statement wednesday OOTD

who doesn't love a good pair of statement earrings?! statement earrings are so on trend and these are great because they aren't too heavy! they also match practically anything, another reason why i love them so much! today, they jazzed up a simple linen dress and tied the outfit together!

gingham and OOTD

i made it through my busy friday! it actually was not that bad of a day! the weather was gorgeous so it was nice to be outside at the track meet and get some sun while rocking my polo and skort diamond girl uniform! relay for life was successful as well! as a chapter we raised over $5,000 for the American Cancer Society! it also made our efforts so much more worthwhile seeing the survivors take the first lap around circle park. i also really enjoyed spending time with my alpha chi sisters!

yesterday i did have some downtime and took a few minutes to peruse the latest handbag offerings from one of my favorite designers, tory burch. her spring/summer collection is to die for as a whole, but i am especially in love with some of her latest handbags! a common theme on the runways for spring/summer was gingham and tory burch successfully incorporated it into her collection. i always love tory burch's purses because they are on-trend but still classic, can be carried multiple ways, to multiple events and are priced well for designer bags. below are my favorite gingham pieces from the collection, along with one timeless, blush colored purse that is perfect for any season and any event!

and keeping with the theme of this post, even my OOTD had gingham! today was the orange and white game so of course the orange and white was out with abundance on campus! i picked up this cardigan last spring at kate spade and i swear it was made with Tennessee in mind. it is perfect for tennessee football and i am finally getting to wear it since the weather was too hot during football season for it!

also, my nails are currently painted essie's "spin the bottle" which is a great color for spring. i love having my nails painted but can't always afford to get a manicure. my problem is that they always chip too soon and then i end up chipping them all off myself (a bad habit of mine). however, when i get gel top coat and base coat, they are much more durable! the other day i wanted my nails done but being broke, couldn't afford to get a gel manicure. instead, i decided to do my own nails since i am not half-bad at it and they turned out pretty good! i also found this clear polish the other day from revlon and my nails are still chip-free four days after i painted them myself which is a miracle! i highly recommend it!

well i am quite tired after a long day out in the sun! be on the lookout for another new OOTD tomorrow!
