My MK obsession

One of favorite go-to, and almost affordable designers is without a doubt Michael Kors. Even as a pre-teen I loved his adds in Vogue and his pieces. Most All of my designer shoes are either MK or Stuart Weitzmen. I blame my mom for getting me started young on good quality shoes. Granted, I don't wear them a ton, but all are cute and comfy(most from Nordstrom Rack, SCORE!).

So it's no surprise that I still have a love for MK but until recently I haven't been a huge fan of his watches. Alot of people have them and they are pretty but they haven't really spoken to me.

UNTIL, I saw this beauty in the Nordstrom catalog! I. WANT. NOW!

 I never really thought I'd like a brown watch but I love the chocolate color of this one.

What are your thoughts? Like MK watches? Or are you over them?

Bib please!

I'm a little behind on the band wagon here so please forgive me for my tardiness on this post. When bib necklaces starting gaining popularity again a few months ago I didn't get it. Some were pretty, some weren't but over all my opinion towards bib necklaces were "Ehh, their alright."

Forgive me fashion gods, for I was blind. It wasn't until a week ago that I realized the genuineness of them. I doubt that designers came up with them to help people like me though. Let me explain.

I got a shirt from GAP that I absolutely love! The same style as below but in a blush color. And I even got one with white and coral stripes. That style shirt fit me perfectly! Favorite shirt status! But then....
I washed my face before bed one night with my normal face wash routine. And the product bleached the neckline of the shirt right in the center to a bright coral!! I almost cried! My face stuff has a tendency to bleach pillow cases but it NEVER bleached a shirt. And of course GAP didn't have my size anymore even of different colors.

But then the light bulb went on when I was thinking of how I could still wear the shirt and not be paranoid about the bleach stain. BIB NECKLACE!! Duh! They go down far enough to cover the neckline! Now I need to find the perfect one! Here are some fun ones!

I really like ones with stones and beads obviously!  There are some nice fabric versions out there. Maybe a DIY project?

Do you have a similar story with a favorite piece of clothing? Anyone know of another way to save my shirt?

Four Leaf Clover

Some time ago while browsing through some of the blogs that I follow I stumbled upon Natasha's blog post at Schue Love which talked about a necklace that Emily(from the Bachelor) wore.  Natasha has a similar necklace that she bought at NYLightMetals.
Since that blog post, I have been drooling over some pieces but never really had a good excuse to get one...Until yesterday! When I was cleaning out my room I found $50! Yes, $50! So what better excuse could I have?! haha. So I decided to get a black&gold version of Emily's necklace.
 It also just so happens that Natasha is having a little blogger giveaway featuring NYLightMetals up to $40 of whatever piece the winner wants! If I end up winning the giveaway I think I will have to get matching earings.
But these are very pretty too!
The giveaway will end on the March 31st! I hope I win!!!
