Pretty Ways To Organize Your Jewelry

Personally, I like to organize my jewelry so that I can shop it. I love looking at it. I don't like tucking it away in a jewelry box.
Unless of course, it is a pretty see-through lucite box like the one pictured below. You can find something like this on Amazon or probably at your local Target or Walmart store. 


Or you can SHOP some of my favorite lucite jewelry boxes below!

I also enjoy displaying my jewelry on a wall or a bulletin board. This way I can see everything and I can colorize it and make it look like a collection. I also change it up from month to month with some new pieces that I come across so that I don't get bored of looking at the same thing.

On the other hand, I think some of us are just natural drapers. By this I mean that when we take something off we like to drape it over something because it's so much easier than placing it back onto a fixture or in a drawer. Let your natural draping practice flow and use a sturdy square mirror or paint a square piece of wood in a color you love and use it as a jewelry display on your dresser.

There are many different ways to store your jewelry but my advice to you would be to not store it away. Keep it out where you can see it and enjoy it even when you're not wearing it. You may not be able to keep it all out at once, but you can have fun rearranging it once a month!

Fashion Is For Models. STYLE Is For Real Women.

The fashion world has always favored skinny models to show off the latest trends. But it's the real women who actually buy them. Why does this make sense? Well I guess when it comes right down to the brutal truth, people buy things that look good. And lets face it, clothes look better when they are smaller. It's kind of like when I go into a store to try on shoes and the one on display that I am attracted to is a size 6 or 7 and then the sales clerk brings out my size (9 or 9/2) and I'm like "That's not the same shoe, is it? The one on display looks different!" The clerk tells me that it is in fact the same shoe. Suddenly, I don't want to try it on anymore. So, I just want to tell all you ladies out there who are not a size 4 in a dress that I get it. But we can't let it bother us.  Fashion is everywhere and marketing is everywhere and the majority of it is big beautiful pictures of skinny people. Keep in mind, models in magazines have the b...

FALL for Flowers!

{Leifsdottir Alegrias tiered floral skirt} Totally unpredictable and completely cool. Flowers for fall are exactly what you need to take your "I miss summertime" blues away. There are no rules in fashion. It's just about achieving a look that is your best and that you feel good in. Who says plaid is the only print you can wear in the fall? Now, don't get me wrong. Plaid is one of my favorite patterns. So maybe we can mix them together! {See below} Flower patterns are fun and so glamorous during any season. Just make your floral skirts a little more fall like by wearing a pair of colorful tights! Can you say FLOWER POWER?! And we are going to need some major FLOWER POWER especially when the temperature begins to drastically drop. {Christopher Kane ~ garden leather mini skirt} {Carolina Herrera}

The Necessary Black T-Shirt

I have to admit, I have not been getting dressed up much these days. I think it has something to do with just wanted to be comfortable. I have been sewing a ton of masks at The Maine Square   and it just feels better to not be confined in my clothing as I am cutting fabric and sewing. However, I do have to go out of the studio occasionally. Mostly it's to the mailbox, but sometimes it's to get more supplies and of course food. I don't mean to sound pretentious or anything, but I do think about how I look even when going out to do these quick errands. It makes me feel good to look half decent! Lately I have been opting for a simple black tee shirt and a pair of semi faded jeans. All I need to do it pop on a camel colored blazer and some ballet flats and I am good to go! Oh yeah, and I ALWAYS wear a mask when entering a public facility these days. I think it's just common courtesy with all that is going on with the corona virus.  Here are some of my all-time favori...
