GOLD BELTS FOR EVERYONE!


I LOVE this look. Like love love love love can't get enough of it in pictures or on my body. Those of you that know my style know that it mainly consists of lots of gold jewelry, blacks and a few turquoise pieces (to throw back to my New Mexico roots, ya'll). The black and gold street style image is so legit - even the coral and gold image is perfect althrough prett-ay spring-ay. I think the secret on this is to get a gold belt that is both wide and shiny. The second ASOS belt above probably doesn't fit the bill but I included it anyway because it's an A for effort.


Enjoy my new favorite song:

So Many Wonderful Things

[CLUTCH]in' on a Photograph - Grouplove, sort of.

1/ 2/ 3/ 4 

Nothing says fancy party more like a boxy little bag that holds very few belongings. These pretty little things are the perfect accessory to hold a) credit card, b) cell phone {notice how they are all iPhone friendly}, c) a single key. Lipstick may be and usually is pushing it. I have made the mistake many a times of squeezing as much as I can into my little sparkly bag only to have to wrestle it closed all night long. It's best just to avoid that if possible and stick to the essentials. Plus, that is what your boo's pockets were made for - lipstick! gum! keys! That's why he's  your boo after all. 

For those of you that love to have one of your hands occupied all night long you are in luck. This trend has crossed over to the day time variety. However, I tend to carry more than the above three items in my bag on any given day so, my chosen solution is to carry a giant bag stuffed with said belongings and then place my dainty clutch inside of it so that when I head to lunch I can fake that I actually carried it all day. Oh, look at me so fabulous and low maintenance! Ah-ah. Yeah right.

I purchased the Zara version and carry it often (did you hear they have a home collection - online? it's zamazing). It fancies up any ensemble and with that price tag what is there to lose! Major bonus: it has a little gold chain so that you can actually use that other hand of yours and sling that bad boy over your shoulder. 

Yes, I am still obsessin' over this group[love] - pun intended.
