Friday Find Under $50

April 19, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

I promised myself that I wouldn’t post another pair of sandals for this week’s Friday Find Under $50, but I couldn’t pass up these pretty bow sandals that look like the Kate Spade pair I yearned for years ago. I’m debating between mint and red. Which color do you fancy?

You can find the sandals at a few retailers, but Belk (linked above) is the cheapest. Amazon also has a large selection of available sizes.

Congratulations to the winners of the JewelMint giveaway: Dianne H., Chelsea T., and Franziska H.! I’ll send you all an email shortly. Thank you to everyone for entering. Your support helps make these giveaways possible – and there’s another on the way!

Currently Coveting

Right now, I’m coveting:

New throw pillows in a lovely shade of mint
A bold, earthy necklace made of amazonite and quartz
Rose-colored sunglasses
A pretty floral cuff for $20 (in gold or cream)
A breezy dress that’s destined for the beach
This vintage pitcher
Makeup that’s almost too pretty to use
Mixing and matching barware in rectangles and stripes

Saturday was unseasonably warm and I took full advantage of the 40-degree weather with spring accessories: my favorite Kate Spade shoes and a new J.Crew necklace. I was unsure about this necklace when it first arrived because the color is much brighter in person than it appears in the stock photo. It has been a bit of a styling challenge, but I love how it looks with mint accessories.

Coveting: Mint Shoes

December 11, 2012 by jessica Leave a Comment

Over the past year, I’ve added four pairs of mint shoes to my wardrobe: heels, loafers, sandals and sneakers. The hue may seem impractical, but it’s versatile enough to pair with winter’s evergreen then transition seamlessly to spring.

Mint & Gold: J.Crew flats // Kate Spade heels

Soft & Sweet: Dolce Vita flats // Diane von Furstenberg heels

Bright & Bold: Tory Burch flats // Pour La Victoire heels

Four things contribute to a satisfying holiday season: gatherings of loved ones, gobs of glittery ornaments, glasses filled with holiday spirits, and, of course, a fabulous frock is a must! The new-to-me site, MissesDressy, has cocktail dresses in every shape and sequin color imaginable (and prom dresses to suggest to the younger ladies this spring).

I’m one click away from ordering those glamorous cocktail picks. They’ll look divine on the bar cart I have yet to acquire.
