I've finally fallen in love...

... with a necklace! Did that title make you curious? Sorry mom, but the last guy I was talking with told me he was thinking of the best sexual innuendo to use as a pick up line. That really happened. Moving on to what I've actually fallen in love with, a bracelet! I am the most PICKY person when it comes to bracelets (yes, and boys so shush). They're uncomfortable, always touching me, loud and list goes on and on (still talking about bracelets but this also applies to boys). These flowered bracelets from Our World Boutique fit like a dream! I can't explain it, they're like the sweatpants of bracelets. 

Tips for stacking bracelets.

1. The bracelets are your statement. DON'T wear some big hoop earring or eye catching necklace when you're wearing this much arm candy. You'll be at risk of being a little... gaudy. Sorry, I'm not sorry I said that.

2. Chose more than one color and style. I layered purple, pink, "diamonds" and gold beads together. This creates a more fun look. Don't be so drab, it's OKAY not to match. After all, if I had a dollar for every time I told you that it's okay not to be so matchy-matchy I could hire the Millionare Matchmaker and live happily ever after. 

3. Throwing in a watch is highly encouraged. These Bliss Bracelets from Our World Boutique are a good size, so I chose not to wear a watch with them. But, if I just wore the smaller bracelets shown, a watch would've been the perfect finishing piece. 

P.S. These perfect bracelets are only $5.99, so you better go get them NOW! If only finding the perfect boyfriend was just as easy.

Our World Boutique, a girl's best friend!

Life is expensive. You have to buy amazing shoes, purses in different colors, skinny jeans, maxi dresses and the list goes on. Then if you have money left over you buy luxury items like groceries and gas. Ugh. This is why I love stores that offer amazingly cute clothes at prices that allow me to, at least, purchase protein bars. So ladies, let me introduce you to Our World Boutique... Cute clothes at affordable prices. A girl's best friend!

This shirt is from Our World Boutique and currently on clearance for only $12.99! I wanted to show you it both casual and dressy. It would also look adorable with simply a pair of shorts. It's a staple shirt for spring and summer! Also, head over to Our World Boutique now and you can get 30% off jewelry with promo code SPRINGSPARKLE.

Um... This is my awkward pose. This is how NOT to take a picture.

When it rains 24/7 in Indiana, I am forced to take photos inside my home. 

Tomorrow morning I leave for Cabo. Follow me on Instagram for more frequent fashion updates! www.instagram.com/fASHionatelyMe or search fASHionatelyMe

My Aztec Love Affair

I have a small confession to make... as I'm posting the last of my Hazel and Olive boutique features (for now), my shopping cart on their website is incredibly full. As soon as I press "submit order", I'm giving up my ability to go to the grocery until my next paycheck. Worth it? Absolutely! This gorgeous skirt is from Hazel and Olive. Have I mentioned they have free shipping? Also, they're constantly adding new items to their website - so you need to be checking daily! If you're spring break shopping, or just shopping for life, you need to do it at Hazel and Olive.

Spring Fashion Tip: Get a cream blazer! I promise you, you'll wear it all spring and summer long.

I LOVE this aztec pattern. You're going to see this all through the fall season!

Girls Wear Camo Too

The moment my uncle saw me in this shirt, he asked when my episode of Duck Dynasty would air. Hilarious. Whatever, I said it before and I'll say it again - whenever a guy makes fun of a girl's outfit it's likely incredibly fashionable.

In order to tame down the fact that I'm twinning with Phil (hello, I just referenced Duck Dynasty), I decided to add an über feminine necklace. It's not typical, but that's what I love about it. I like wearing outfits that take a second glance to realize you like it. Of course I finished this off with some gorgeous wedges from Dottie Cotoure Boutique. This is a boutique in my home town Indy, but you can also buy online. I love this boutique because even with the increased amount of online boutiques Dottie is able to keep their clothes unique. Try them out, they're definitely a seller I trust and love!

My shirt and necklace were both gifts, but I think I found pretty good matches for you. :) Check out my last picture to see how my adorably, hott cousin styled the same necklace. Yet again, we unknowingly purchased the same piece but styled it completely different!

One of the many things I love about my cousin, is that we have the same taste but our style is very different. Visit her blog tomorrow to see more ways to style this necklace!

Retail Rehab Part 2

What do you do when it's 3:30 AM and you're wide awake? Blog. Duh. I apologize in advance for anything inappropriate that slips out. I naturally have no filter, but when I'm tired it's even worse. So bare with me.

I can't even begin to explain how crazy my summer has been. I honestly think this has been the busiest three months of my life. I laugh about not having a boyfriend but I barely have time to shower, let alone make time for a guy! As more and more things take my time, my one true love - shopping - gets less and less. So now, more than ever, online shopping is CRUCIAL to my existence. Um no, I'm not being dramatic. I recently started Retail Rehab in hopes of helping you find cute clothes, at trustworthy online boutiques. My first RR I rated Urban Og and the gorgeous skirt I purchased. Now you can check out the most beautiful pair of wedges from the one and only, Urban Og. What do you think of the shoes and my modern take on floral?

Wedges are the perfect way to wear heels and not hate your life. Tip: When a heel has more height under the toe, it will balance out your weight making the shoes more comfortable.

I love backless! This dress makes it easy to go from work to drinks with friends!

I like these shoes because you get the comfort of a wedge, but the classy look of a regular heel. 

Always be careful that your wedge isn't too "chunky" for your look.

I paired this dress with a pink blazer to keep my outfit happy and feminine. I didn't want the dark colors of the dress to dull it. After all, it was still summer at this time! I also matched my jewelry with my blazer to help tie the colors together and when I wasn't wearing my blazer, the pink jewelry carried on the feminine theme. 

Their report card remains the same and they're on my list of top online stores! The dress I'm wearing comes from one of my favorite boutiques in Broad Ripple, Indiana - Luck B. Don't worry, I'll grade them soon in my Retail Rehab! Until then, happy shopping!
