RocksBox

So you may have noticed I’m a little obsessed with subscription boxes right now, but I think I’ve found my favorite! RocksBox is a jewelry membership-based jewelry styling service. For $19 a month, you get three pieces sent you to, that you can keep and wear for up to 60 days. Want to keep it? Let them know and they’ll charge your account. Ready for something new? As soon as you send back your current items, you’ll get new ones! My first shipment was so fabulous, I can hardly wait for my second. Here’s what I got:

Viento White Rhino Necklace in Gold
The necklace is on it’s way back – I liked it but I didn’t love it. The gold was a little more yellow than I prefer and the chain was too long for my stubby little torso.

Sandy Hyun Beveled Mirror Earrings
The earrings are perfect! A really interesting shape, but go with everything. I wore them for the second time today. Keeping these!
 
Lucas Jack Snooker Ball Ring
The ring, oh the ring! Definitely my favorite. I must admit I squealed a little as I pulled it out of the box. A bit “Marni-esque,” as my dear friend pointed out. I think I’ve worn it 5 times already and I’ve only had it a week. Keeping this for sure!

Thank you RocksBox! xoxo

Started the morning off with a little hot yoga and I’m feeling rather refreshed. Then a fabulous lunch with a few favorite friends at Skillet, including the best poutine I’ve had outside of Canada. Yum! Hope your weekend is wonderful!

Stacked Wrists

I’m not much of a jewelry wearer. Always earrings, sometimes a necklace and very occasionally a bracelet or two, but I’ve been coveting this stacked wrist look for a while now. Nordstrom launched a stacked wrist lookbook the other week and it has been calling to me. My collection is growing slowly, I’m even thinking about investing in a watch again. It’s been years since I’ve worn one, but suddenly I’m drooling over a kate spade beauty! Or maybe this one…

Home again with another sinus infection. What is it with this year?! Being all cooped up has me dreaming of vacationing. We’re so excited for the trip we have planned in Palm Springs for a dear friend’s wedding in May. I’m counting down the minutes!

Here are a few things I’ve bookmarked for the trip…

A co-worker asked today if I had been keeping up on Fashion Week and we practically shouted, “Victoria Beckham!” in unison. The clean structured looks, the flawless mix of neutrals and hints of jewel tones, soft and sharp at the same time; everything just oozes Victoria. I die for this collection.

It’s becoming that time of the year when I’m sick of the dark and the cold, and ready for a little sunshine in my life. And while the sun may be no where to be found for the near future here in Seattle, I’m thinking a little color could lift these dreary winter spirits.
