Have you blown your budget yet at the Nordstrom sale? I'm still looking and debating about whether or not to sign up for the debit card to go ahead and shop. I've got my eye on some bracelets. Last year I bought a couple of these tops. They easily switch from business to casual wear.
 
Speaking of bracelets, I made these on a whim one Friday night and I really didn't think I'd wear them much, but I've worn them several times now. Turns out these earthy tones coordinate with more in my wardrobe than I thought they would. While I had my beads and supplies out, I made this charm wrap bracelet.
 
 I bought this tee in two colors. (Psst... it's still on sale.)  You have already seen the green and blue one. Grey is a favorite and I love grey with red, I love stripes, so what's not to love about grey stripes with red?
 
I hope you have a spectacular weekend! One more week and it will by my birthday weekend.
 
Currently I'm drinking... water, coffee, unsweet tea. Yes, I'm from the south and grew up on sweet tea, but I cut out all sweetened drinks about three years ago. I drink my coffee black, no sugar. How do you like your coffee and tea?

I have been admiring all the tassel jewelry that is on trend right now, but I couldn't really justify the purchase when it wouldn't really fit in with my work attire. Then one day I popped into Michaels and noticed some tassels and colorful beads on clearance. I already had other beads and all the tools for making jewelry so I decided make my own. The bracelets are really easy to make- just string your beads and tassels on stretch magic cord and tie it in a knot. Glue your knot and you are done.
 
I also made another set of stacked bead tassel bracelets and a beaded wrap charm bracelet while I was at it. You may have seen those on Instagram. The wrap bracelet is for sale in my Poshmark closet.
 
I love how these bright colors pop against my white cold shoulder top. I know that "off shoulder" is having a moment now, but I've decided the cold shoulder top is more my jam. I'm just a bit picky about tops being too flowy and almost returned this one. I'm glad I didn't because I really like it with the fitted skirt. It will work well with skinny jeans too, and I can probably tuck it into shorts.
