Don't forget to accessorize

Today I've joined up with Megan to present a mini look book showcasing pieces from Marrin Costello, an LA based jewelry designer.

While Meg certainly isn't a stranger on my blog, this the first time we've done a collaboration like this and I'm really excited to share it with you! Marrin's pieces are delicate, feminine, and edgy. For the first look, I'm styling the gold Saratoga bracelet, an equestrian piece that looks great on it's own, but can easily be layered up (as I so often do). Meg is wearing the gold Helix necklace, which makes a striking contrast against her recently acquired and adorable Jason Wu dress.

For the second look, I have on the Baby Bowser bracelet, gold spike beads pointing every which way are the perfect tough-but-feminine accessory to my asymmetrical LBD. Continuing with the spikes, Meg has the silver clustered Stellar ring, along with the coordinating Midi rings. And yes, I did intentionally match my shoes to Megan's skirt!

A big thanks to Marrin for sharing your fabulous jewelry with us! I hope you all go and check out her site, where all the pieces are made in the USA, and remember, don't forget to accessorize!

  10. I have never come across a jewelry-based outfit post that I didn't love and this one is no exception - especially, I admit, because all of the outfits are so neutral (I know, I know) which really lets the jewelry take centre stage. And the pieces really are beautiful. I especially love your first bracelet - so perfectly classic!

  18. They have some gorgeous jewels. What a fun photo-shoot with a fellow blogger and fashion friend. I love your LBD, both pairs of shoes and I also love knotting a white blouse over a bottom, like you did, especially over a black bottom. It is a timeless, classic look.
