I hope you all had a beautiful weekend! Mine was actually pretty awful. Literally an hour after this picture was taken, I started feeling really sick. I'll spare you the gruesome details. I went to urgent care at 2am and the doctor confirmed my suspicions - I had a bad case of food poisoning. I spent the rest of the weekend in bed, while the warm sunny weather taunted me from my window. Oh well, what can you do? At least these cobalt beauties managed to make it out of their box, even if only for an hour. After crushing on them for over a month, I decided to treat myself. Cobalt is one of my favorite colors and I know these will get a lot of wear. I also treated myself to another gorgeous item I've been crushing on, but that will have to wait until another post ;)

Currently Loving ---> Delicate Stone Necklaces

My obsession with stone jewelry (as evidenced here and here) is going strong! I'm not entirely sure where it all started, but now that I think back, my favorite companies like Stella & Dot, Sonya Renee, and Oia Jules are known for their beautiful creations using colorful gems. The natural, earthy beauty of a stone necklace has quite an impact around the neck.

Here are some options in case you're just as obsessed as I am

Stella & Dot

Oia Jules

This was the necklace I wore in my last post. Love it.

Sonya Renee

Delezhen

Etsy has a ton of stone pendants, so I would encourage you to look there! But whatever you choose,  you can't go wrong. There is nothing as beautiful as nature's own jewelry.

Rock Candy

Blazer - H&M (similar)

Tank - American Eagle

Jeans - Old Navy

Heels - Zara (old)

Bag - Juicy Couture (ages old, my first real leather bag!)

Ring - YSL

Necklace - Oia Jules

Lips - Revlon Balm Stain in Lovesick / Nails - Essie Peach Daquiri

My friend wore a similar outfit the last time I saw her. She had on a peach colored tank top from Forever 21, along with a crisp white blazer. The combo had me longing for Summer! I looked for the same top she purchased from F21, but I couldn't locate it. The one I eventually found was on sale at American Eagle. I wasn't sure what jewelry to wear, but decided it was time to give my lapis ring some love again. The necklace from Oia Jules complemented it really well. Now I like to call these pieces my rock candy...cue the boy laughing :) You should hear our conversations over dinner. He officially knows a lot about fashion these days!
