things I wear on my hands

For a second, I entertained the thought of using the term "arm party", but... no.

I've always worn stacks of rings and bracelets.  In my youth, it was indiscriminate, and I didn't really try to coordinate them at all. Now I know better, and I like to think I'm pretty good at organizing my wrists.

Here's what I've been wearing lately:

Right

The big ring I got at a local boutique, and the small beaded one I got from a craft fair.  I love big rings, but I try to only wear one at a time - then all the focus is on how cute it is, rather than "Wow, that girl looks like a pirate." And yes, people said that my freshman year of college.  Pick smaller rings in colors that accent the bigger one.

Left

When I wear bracelets, I always wear them on my left wrist because then it doesn't interfere when I'm writing. The spikey bracelets came from Claire's (I may have a problem), and the other one was a gift from Italy from my friend Sarah.  And, you know, that ring is my engagement ring.

Basically, everything will look better if you coordinate the colors and try not to get too crazy with the huge cocktail rings. But if you wanna look like a pirate, more power to you, lady.

Lux Boutique Jewelry Love

 Lux is a new online boutique that I think you guys are going to love. They have the perfect combination of girly and edgy things, which is a dichotomy I love to play around with! For updates on what they're getting in stock and ideas on how to style their pieces, you should follow them on instagram at @shopluxy

These two pieces are some of my favorites - The necklace with the black dress is what I wore to my friend's bachelorette party Friday night, and I got a ton of compliments on it! It's simple enough to wear with everything but still makes it a little fancy.

These earrings are something else I love! I wore them Saturday when we were running errands and they transitioned perfectly from casual running around town to the music festival we went to that night :) Extremely versatile. And these are actually really comfortable -sometimes big earrings hurt my ears so I can't wear them for long, but I could wear these all day long without a problem!
