Pandora Stackable Rings

I have some serious accessory envy....for the rings that are new to Pandora jewelry! While I think the charms are great gifts, I've always liked the brand, but never found myself in love with charm bracelets. So when I found out they now carry rings, I couldn't wait to see what Pandora had to offer! I was beyond pleased with the collection. With prices ranging from $25 to $725 per ring, it makes for a gift fit in almost everyone's price range. The options are endless with rings that are wide & thin, gold & silver, simple & stylish-there is a style of ring for a wide variety of tastes young and old.

Did I mention that they were stackable too? While you can get a wider ring that would only fit one on a finger, most of the rings are thin so you can fit 3-4 on one finger. On their website they allow you to search through the rings, stack your favorites, add up the cost, and show you what they look like stacked together.

Pandora - Great job, I'm hooked! I know will be at the top of my birthday list this summer. Here are a few of the designs I created:

Polyvore Board for Bluefly

Bluefly recently tweeted that they are having a contest to win $5,000 to splurge on their website. For those of you that are not familiar with the website bluefly.com, they specialize in high-end designer fashion at discount prices. Bluefly partnered with Polyvore and created this contest to show your summer style by creating a style board. I think it was such a great idea, I had fun creating my style board, and it was great to look at the other entries as well!

After playing around with the design for a little bit I decided on using blue hues with pops of color for my summer inspired board (see below)...and of course, I had to add some fabulous shoes in there as well!

Cross your fingers and maybe I will have the chance to afford my style board! :) Oh yea, you can comment and "like" my design here, but the contest ends tomorrow, so vote soon!

A Site for the Shoe Obsessed: Sole Society

Hi, my name is Katelyn and I am a shoe-aholic. When I walk into a shoe store I can't help feeling a little rush looking at all of the designers and the fabulous heels, wedges, and pumps...the taller heel the better! Anyways, when I stumbled upon the website Sole Society, I fell in love!

Sole Society is a shoe membership website that delievers you the cutest new shoes each month. First, you take a style quiz to create the perfect online shoe "closet" personalized just for you. Then, you can choose your favorite design for just $49.95. Each month you pick your favorite shoe, and if you don't want to buy that month, you can simply choose to skip that month and see what next month's closet has to offer. Here is my closet selection this month:
Check out the website and take your personal style quiz now! There's no charge until you purchase your first pair so creating your closet is completely free! What shoe is your favorite?

"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Buddha

Something Blue

If anyone knows my sister, Jen, they know she loves everything blue. From her wedding colors (including royal blue shoes) to the color of her house to her wardrobe, it usually is a blue hue. So, Jen, this is for you. A style board created just for you and totally blue inspired!

Missing London

A picture taken in London at Borough Market. One of my favorite places in London, filled with local vendors full of food, flowers, and sweets. My study abroad buddies, Katie & Ashley, and I loved this place and had so much fun just walking around the market and enjoying the area.

Another New Debut, Target + Missoni

Just hot off their release of Target and Calypso St. Barth, Target is back at it again, releasing that they are now partnering with Missoni! Yes, you heard right, Missoni! The brand whose zigzag and swirl patterns are endlessly in style and full of pieces that I have envied for years now. Coming to Target September 13th until October 22nd, it is a limited collection that Target will feature.

“It’s been a fantastic experiencce, " Angela Missoni told Vogue about working with Target, “one we are eager to share with families across the United States.”

As Calypso featured not only fashion for their Target line but accessories and housewares, Missoni is following in the same fashion and will reportedly have over 400 pieces including women's, men's, and kid's apparel, bedding, and dinnerware, among others.

Another great job on behalf of Target for the high-end collaborations creating fabulous, but affordable collections!

Leifsdottir Leaves!

Parent Company, Urban Outfitters recently announced that one of their lines, Leifsdottir (pronounced leaf's daughter), will be pulled from stores and sold exclusively at Anthropologie. Previously sold at stores such as Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks, and Bergdof Goodman, Leifsdottir is saying goodbye, and hello to their new home at Anthropologie beginning this June. With Anthro being one of my all-time favorite stores to shop at, I couldn't be more excited about this news!

As I looked through their clothing line, I realized the potential of this buried treasure! Featuring bold colors, prints, and styles that would look good on almost everyone, Leifsdottir has some seriously cute clothing! Since Anthropologie is such a widely recognized name, I think it was a smart transition to make and will really benefit both Leifsdottir, Urban Outfitters, and Anthropologie.

Rain, Rain, Maybe Stay?

As in my earlier post this week, I have been on the search for the perfect trench coat. Did I curse East Lansing? Today has been quite the rainy day, and it doesn't look like it's clearing up any time soon! This rain is only making me envy MORE trench coats than I was before! Here are a few of my favorites from Neiman Marcus that I came across:

Top: Burberry, Moncler Bottom: Burberry (both)

Although they are painfully out of budget, they are fun to dream about! It is also nice to pick out styles so I have a better idea what I'm looking for when I'm shopping.

See, the rain isn't so bad now is it? There's a positive to everything, and this I must say, is the cute trench coats that come with the rain!

Happy Birthday, Dad!

Happy Birthday to the most inspiring and creative dad a family could ask for!


For his birthday this year, one of the gifts he received was found by my crafty sister, Jen, on Etsy. (For those of you that don't know, Etsy features handmade goods of all sorts from private sellers. I recommend you to check it out for a all sorts of unique handmade treasures.)


It's the perfect gift for the Michigander that just seems to have everything! Found on Crafterall's store page, the store features a variety of layered papercut pieces. With every piece handmade, you are guaranteed to get a gift that is truly one of a kind. On my Dad's gift, we had a circle mark the city our cottage is located. Kudos to Crafterall for such a great piece of art, and a gift that many will treasure.

Love you, Dad. Enjoy your day at work, and celebrate another great year! We are a truly lucky family!

London Fashion Week: Burberry Prorsum Runway

Although Fashion Week has come and gone, the Burberry Prorsum runway is still on my mind! I loved all of the colors, styles, and designs that they captured with the Pre-Fall looks. One of my favorite aspects are the shoes that are featured in the top-right. They are a great look for fall, and before the season starts I will be on the lookout for shoe like it!

Envy On!

P.S. I've been searching for the perfect trench coat. Any suggestions?
