I spent an hour sifting through pebbles to find opalescent stones when I visited California’s Moonstone Beach. While I did unearth a few, they’re not nearly as pretty as this pair of faceted earrings.

I picked up this dress on a whim and it’s already become a wardrobe staple that I often reach for. Even better? It was only $60. I suspect the cost-per-wear will be mere pennies before summer is over.

I’ve never been on board with the phrase “arm party,” but I am eager to coin Dave’s suggestion for layers of bracelets: armscaping.

If you wait long enough, everything really does come back in style. I purchased this pair of vintage earrings a couple of years ago with the intention to alter them. Obviously, I never did decide what their second life should be – and I’m glad I didn’t. They’re perfectly on-trend with this year’s floral fixation.
And the bracelet, well, I would never dream of changing this piece. It belonged to my grandmother and remains one of my favorite baubles.

For the better part of last week, the meteorologist stressed how beautiful it would be on Saturday with highs in the 60s. He was wrong. Browsing boutiques and stopping at a beloved restaurant for brunch was much colder than anticipated, but a mint shell and floral bracelet kept an optimistic spring in my step.
