In case you haven’t noticed, I have been having a love affair with this classic turtleneck sweater. I find myself reaching for it multiple times per week. I love it so much, I purchased it in blue, pink, and black! I could not pass up the fabulous sale price on this sweater; and the fact that is so cute!

This sweater is cozy, and the turtleneck is loose; so I don’t have to worry about an itchy, binding turtleneck. Love that! The sweater works well in moderate weather with a tank top underneath, and also in cold weather, below 40 degrees, with a long sleeve tee. When the temperatures dip into the 30’s, the addition of a blanket scarf makes it the perfect wardrobe staple in the winter months. It is also easy to layer underneath a warm coat.

Another thing I love about this turtleneck sweater, is that it can be dressed up or dressed down. I love how it looks with jeans on casual days, and I love the polished look it gives to skirts on dressier days. It also can be worn with a blanket scarf to add color or texture to an outfit, or a long necklace for a more formal look. Without a scarf or necklace, this turtleneck sweater offers a minimalist look which is clean and fresh. I can wear it with everything! Love!

If you find yourself in need of a classic, versatile, turtleneck sweater to wear right now; and next year, definitely check this one out! It comes in so many colors and neutrals; and it is on crazy sale! Can’t beat a great deal 🙂

Chloe Inez handbag review

Leave it to Chloe to design another fabulous handbag! The Chloe Inez handbag is a hot new handbag style from Chloe which is making it’s debut for the spring 2016 season. Isn’t it fabulous!

The Chloe Inez handbag is being offered in both leather and suede. I chose the leather version in black because I felt like it worked best with my lifestyle; and leather is more durable than suede. I love the studs which vary in size and texture. It really adds a special quality to the exterior of the Chloe Inez. The single tassel also adds an edgy vibe to the over all look of the handbag. I am in love!

There is a bit of versatility with the Chloe Inez. Although it is a small handbag, the straps convert to a long, single shoulder strap which allows the bag to hit at the hip or be worn cross-body; or the straps can be pulled in order to be shortened into a double strap shoulder bag, which hits at the rib-cage. It is always a plus when you can adjust the straps!

The interior space of the Chloe Inez is roomier than you might think. Since it is a pouchette style handbag, the interior space is rounded and offers enough space for a sunglasses case, smart phone, lipstick, keys, and wallet with a little bit of space to spare for a pack of gum or a small notepad.

There is one interior pocket in the Chloe Inez which I find useful for receipts or notes I might want to take with me. The closure is a one inch, small strap with a magnetic snap. It is a strong magnet which can find itself; so I find it to be very to use.

The overall style of the Chloe Inez is a bit rock and roll meets boho. I love how it looks with jeans, maxi skirts, and anything which is casual and flowing. This is definitely my go-to bag on casual days. I think it will look amazing this spring and summer with warmer weather outfits. It is perfect for throwing on with cut-offs and flip flops, or a flowing boho-chic sundress.

The Chloe Inez already has a wait-list at some stores, and has sold out in a few colors. Thankfully you can still pre-order one, or get your hands on one right away online here, here and here.

Happy handbag shopping, and stay fabulous 😉

Larimar ring

Pictured: Earrings: Kendra Scott / Sunglasses: Chanel / Lipstick: Chanel Mighty / Sweater: White + Warren (less exp. option here) / Skirt: vintage Missoni (also love this one) / Handbag: Givenchy (similar here) / Ring: c/o Official Larimar Shop / Nail Polish: Dior Bleuette / Boots: Tory Burch (on sale!)

Larimar jewelry is absolutely beautiful. So, when I received this Larimar ring, I was dazzled by it’s beauty! The Larimar stone is a fabulous, light turquoise gem with small streaks of white in it. I love how, in this ring, it is set with a pearl in silver. I also love the bypass style of the ring.

When I was putting together an outfit around the ring, I knew I had to pair it with my light blue vintage wool skirt by Missoni. The blue in the ring, and the blue tweed in the skirt, played well together.

I love how well-made the Larimar ring is, and color is just spectacular. I am looking forward to wearing this ring often, and for many years to come! I have only had the ring for about one week, and I am already wearing it almost everyday! Love!

Larimar has so many jewelry options on their website. I am in love with their cuffs, and their earrings are stunning! I definitely want to add more Larimar jewelry to my collection.

The Larimar stone is found in the beautiful waters of the Caribbean, around the Dominican Republic. The Larimar stone is created by volcanic activity, and is considered a powerful throat chakra. It is believed to aid in the expression of emotions. Love that!

The perfect blue hue of the Larimar stone makes it ideal for wearing this spring season. It will look amazing paired with shades of blue, and this season’s rose and blush hues. I cannot wait to wear this ring often!
