ALDO, how could I forget you?

My best friend just sent me a random text telling me she just purchased "the most gorgeous earrings in the universe', so my initial and rather instinctual thoughts are; from where? and how much? because if she has found literally the most gorgeous earrings in the world, I HAVE to buy them, but they have to be at a store or website that is accessible because she lives on the East Coast. I lucked out because they are from ALDO Accessories. Which has totally slipped my mind for being one of my favorite places to get accessories. The prices aren't too bad for great quality and an array of different styles of jewelry. I'm babbling, so here are a few of my favorite pieces from ALDO's newest promotional collection, Global Inspiration.




^ --pair this with a plain white shirt, blue jeans, and some funky shoes; perfection-- ^

^ --favorite-- ^




^ --this also comes in a stunning powder blue, I love wearing a million rings-- ^


^ --the scarves they're offering right now are so eclectic and give off a kind of Aztec feel, love the idea for summer-- ^

Birds of a feather flock together

Feathers are in. Pretty much all things native american are at the moment, and being a descendant of the cherokee tribe has given me the genetic upper hand. So, I take full advantage of my DNA by wearing many indian inspired looks. Including, one of my favorites, feathers, may it be on your clothes, incorporated into accessories, or in your hair. Today I'm talking about feather hair accessories they're great because of there versatility, salons now offer actual extensions that you can wash and curl that are feathers ( I'll get more in detail with this in a future post ), or you can just tie some random feathers to your hair for an equally eclectic and totally awesome look. This particular day I went for a sort of charm bracelet themed hair accessory with feathers, beads and chain all included. So many people loved it and asked how I did it or where I got it so there's the photo for your inspirational pleasure.
