I hadn’t really paid attention to Erickson Beamon Rocks, the lower priced alternative to Erickson Beamon’s signature collection, but this dazzling bracelet steals the show at just $148. Even if you don’t have a cocktail occasion to wear it now, tuck it away for impromptu evenings out and for holiday seasons to come.
There’s just a month and a half left of the spring/summer French Wardrobe Challenge and I’m in desperate need of a clean slate. This season has been especially challenging; I love warm-weather clothes (they’re my favorite to buy and wear) and my style has evolved since last summer. I used to wear shorts almost exclusively. Now I’m all about the ease of a summer dress. It definitely resulted in overindulgence and a bit of overspending. Our upcoming trip to Belgium (just two weeks away!) was a ridiculously convenient excuse for a lot of my purchases. (New clothes are so much better on vacation, right?) I filed most items under the basics category this month. They’re black, white or beige, versatile, and in many instances, easy to pack. I also added my last item to round out this season’s stand-outs: a bold DVF dress that’s unlike anything in my closet.

C.Wonder is having a sale on its end-of-season wares. Would you believe this bracelet is only $34? There’s another version with an anchor for even less. I’m also smitten with the darling needlepoint key fob embellished with a sweet crab and anchor motif.
Kate Spade released the 2015 day planners for fellow paper-loving list makers. I like the green ikat most (there’s mint on the inside, for goodness sakes!), but it’s also available in two of last year’s most popular prints: gold polka dots and black and white stripes.
Congrats to Erika, the winner of the UGallery.com giveaway. I can’t wait to see what you spend your winnings on!
Is there anything better than lobster-embroidered loafers?! Eating a lobster roll while wearing your new lobster loafers, yes. Other than that, no. My inner New England prep is yearning for a pair of these puppies, but I can’t decide between light blue, gold, navy, or pink. More importantly, do I really need another pair of nautical loafers given that I purchased these earlier this year?
There’s actually quite a bit on sale at Coach right now, including the black satchel I wear all the time. (It even fits my DSLR if I pare down the rest of my daily necessities and just use a slim card case instead of a full wallet.)
