Lately, I’m Loving…

Lately, I’m loving:

  • An over-the-top rhinestone bracelet that dresses up casual weekend garments, like this incredibly soft Everlane sweatshirt. 
  • “After School Boy Blazer,” an inky blue Essie polish I purchased the other day. I then realized that the color is similar to that of my Hermes bracelet and my Jetta. I’m a one trick pony.
  • Orange is the New Black. We just finished binge watching it and I can’t wait for another season. Thankfully, next week’s return of New Girl will keep me occupied.

Samantha Wills’ designs aren’t my usual style, which is exactly why I adore about this boho-meets-vintage-meets-glam line. Entirely self-taught, the native Australian has been called “Australia’s biggest export since Vegemite” and was named a “break out star” by The New York Times in 2011. Despite her rising star status, Samantha is still a down-to-earth gal. She remains the spokesperson for her brand, has a charming blog, and can’t resist salted caramel. What’s not to love? image

Summer is rapidly coming to an end, but I’m taking advantage of every last warm day with these tropical-meets-modern earrings from Color by Amber, a collection of environmentally friendly jewelry. The brand’s sustainable mission is certainly evident in its business practices (nothing goes to a landfill), but also in its primary design material called “ecoresin.” Ecoresin encapsulates the decorative elements in the jewelry and is made with 40% pre-consumer recycled content. (As an added bonus, ecoresin makes these earrings lightweight and easy to wear all day.)
