Website Highlight: Kendra Scott

Thanks to my good friend, Jessica, I've discovered a new obsession:

Kendra Scott

She's a doll. Read her story here.

{and she's super nice. I met her @ her grand opening in Austin!}

Let me just say, the website does NOT do her collection justice. Literally everything is stunning in person. Her new boutique in Austin is gorgoeous as well. It's clean, neutral interior makes the jewelry pop and it's outfitted with a "color bar" where you can pick a blank jewelry setting and then apply different gem stones- making it your very own design. {you can also design online @ her website here.}

Here's one I designed:

These are my some of my favs:

Carmella Stud Earrings in Turquoise $70; Ava Statement Necklace in Cayenne $170

Novia Beaded Stud Earrings in Champagne $65; Sona Chandelier Earrings in Berry $115

Otylia Cocktail Ring $75; Paley Cuff Bracelet in Basil $188

 Kacey, I hope you're reading this...a not so subtle hint...

Keeping my fingers crossed,

Lights, Flashing

Christmas lights, that is.

Ok, ok. I know it's only October, but close your eyes and holiday season will be here before you know it. And you know what that means....presents? NO- PARTIES! {well, presents too...}

But my gift to you today is my top picks for the holiday social scene. Every girl's got to have a great cocktail party dress to throw on. These are what I'm crushing on right now- glitter/sequins, red/pink, waist cinching silhouettes, and subtle pattern details. The perfect compliment to any of these looks is a splash of red lipstick, a smoky eye, a great cocktail ring, and a confident walk.

Go ahead, drool...
