2019 Fall Trends

November 26, 2019

Fall is by far my favorite season! I feel like it's the only time my true style shines through. My second favorite season is spring because I can wear my warm-weather clothes with fewer layers. Since fall is top of mind (and timely), I thought it would be beneficial to share my top 2019 fall trends. If you're lucky, you might already own some of these items, as they're less trendy and more classic which I love!What I’m Wearing– Sweater: J.Crew | Jeans: J.Crew Factory  | Boots: Gentle Souls by Kenneth Cole | Bag: Cuyana c/o | Lipstick: BeautyCounter Color Intense lipstick in 9 to 5

How to Style the Stefanie Mini — Lace & Pearls Jewelry

November 5, 2019

The piece coming in at number one is the Stefanie Mini! Since launching this style a year ago, I've sold 67 units. Her story is unique — she started out as the 'Stefanie,' a double-layered necklace (instead of a single layer), adorned with semi-precious (celestite) gemstones. What makes her unique is the matte gold chevron layer.Model: Megan of Diary of this Girl 📷: Sarah Wolfe

I’ve often wondered how to incorporate my handmade jewelry line — Lace & Pearls Jewelry (LPJ) — into my blog outside the typical outfit posts. It occurred to me that it would be fun to share the story behind each piece of jewelry. And this post is timely, as LPJ is celebrating its two-year anniversary on November 7th. Woot! This feels like a great time to begin a new series on my blog.

Instagram post 2193304804560864534_1901416106 Yesterday I treated myself to a green tea 🍵 latte from Starbucks, it was my first time trying. 😋 I normally keep it simple and get either an americano or soy latte. What’s your favorite Starbucks drink? Happy Friday. ☕️
Instagram post 2191687562442215975_1901416106 So I might have overdone it and now I’m feeling it. 😩 Burnout is no joke and it’s important to take care of yourself. I’m actually working on a post about surviving the holidays 🎄and beyond. I hope to have it completed soon. 🤞🏾
💫
In the meantime, I want to learn more about you 💕and the type of content you want to see. Please take a moment and answer my survey questions on IG stories. If you want to get more specific, feel free to introduce yourself in the comments and share who you are. Thanks so much! 😊
Instagram post 2190447584940840732_1901416106 I love long weekends 💕and this past holiday 🦃 weekend was the best! @laceandpearlsjewelry participated in the Holly Jolly 🎄 market Friday-Saturday and on Sunday I continued to work on my side businesses. 🙌 Needless to say, going back to my day job 👩🏾‍💻today was rough. 😴 I may or may not have fallen asleep 💤 once I was back home. ☺️ How did you spend the past few days? Did you hit up any sales? 📸: @nicholas.mercado
Instagram post 2189706197794500973_1901416106 I have discovered the perfect 🎁 ! #ad These @bedvoyagebamboo facial washcloths. You get six in a pack, 3 white, and 3 black. They're made from bamboo, rayon, and viscose and are excellent for those with sensitive skin (they're hypoallergenic). 🙌🙌🙌They're resistant to bacteria, mildew, and odors too. But wait, it gets better! 💝 These babies are stain-resistant. Yes, that is correct! 😊I have used mine to wash off my foundation, waterproof mascara, and my charcoal face mask and it still came out clean! 👍🏾So basically it's the perfect washcloth and I want to gift them to everyone in my life. 💫
⭐️ Bed Voyage is doing their Cyber Monday sale right now and offering 25% off of everything through December 2nd. Use code CYBER25. 🙌🙌🙌This would be a great time to pick up a new towel or sheet set or gift them to the person who has everything. 💝My husband and I love them. It's truly the PERFECT gift. 😊 #bedvoyagebamboo ⭐️
