Don’t you just love when you throw on a statement necklace or a stack of bracelets and it changes your entire look?
I find that I’m wearing more and more jeans lately, but let’s be honest here . . . I’m no longer in the work force era of life, the weather is still chilly, and they’re down right comfy! I can get a lot accomplished around the home in a pair of fun jeans and then when paired the right way, they can make for a great casual yet stylish outfit.
One way to take your jeans to another level is to simply add statement style accessories to your outfit. When I added this statement necklace from kayandstar it instantly changed the entire look. The jeans no longer look like just a pair of torn boyfriend jeans, look like they’re part of a carefully put together outfit.
To really give this ensemble some lift, I also added stacks of bracelets to both arms . . .
This one is my favorite stack this year, it was specially made for me by my good friend Julie from Kayandstar. The little charm has the word I chose this year engraved on it. What a perfect way to be reminded about my (our) purpose in life. Each year I choose One Little Word instead of goals to pursue, a word that will help inspire me to be a better person.
This year my word is purpose: the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. I chose this word to help remind me each and everyday I have a purpose to be here and I need to find it and use it to the very best of my ability.
“the purpose of life is to love”
Since the weather feels like spring today, I opted to layer with a shirt dress as jacket and finishing it off with my blush hat and fun booties.
As always my friends, thanks for dropping by. Have a wonderful day.

Thank you Jess! It took me FOREVER to find the right raw edge jeans for my petite size. Maybe it’s just me, but jean shopping is a bit on the stressful side. For all you taller women, I envy you when it comes to jeans.
Again Trina with torn trousers, I’m sure I’ll get used to seeing you like this, although I miss those looks with your wonderful dresses. The complements are wonderful and the whole look oozes balance and style. I love the game with the tuquesa, your hat and your shoes. An informal but always wonderful Trina.
Don’t worry my friend, once the nice weather returns it will be all dresses!
I LOVE that statement necklace!
This looks like an outfit taken from an Anthropologie catalogue.
