Anything But COMMON

We all love unique designs and handcrafted gifts.  When uncommongoods reached out to me, I was super excited to be working with them.  
Part of uncommongoods mission is to support and provide a platform for artists and designers.  I love that when you visit their website they have a little of everything.
As I shopped around the website, I couldn't get over all the whimsical pieces that they have to offer.  They have housewares, clothing, jewelry and lots more.  Picking a favorite piece is going to be the hard part.
While I was shopping, I wanted everything!  One of my picks was this super funky watch.  It's called the Equation Geek Watch, and it's anything but common.  It's got the equivalent notation for each number.  How cool is that?!  A perfect gift for all the upcoming graduation parties you'll be attending and lets not forget Father's Day!  

   

I'm all about delicate and dainty jewelry pieces for summer.  The last thing I want is heavy jewelry clingy on my skin when it's hot and humid out.  That's why I fell in love with the Forget Me Not Rings.  This bow ring is sterling silver and delicately tied in a pretty bow made from the mold of a real string.  

I haven't even gotten to the best and most amazing part of uncommongoods.  
They have a you shop, we give program.  Through The Better to Give program, they've been able to build a better business by connecting their customers with charities around the globe.  With every purchase you  make, they are proud to donate $1 to the non-profit of your choice.  Since they started the Better to Give program 12 years ago, they've donated over $1,000,000.  
Now you can shop and feel good about it!  Let's keep up the good work!

Happy Friday!  Doing my happy dance!!! 

 

Spending some time with my nephews this weekend which should be interesting to say the least.  I love spending the day with them, but we know how teenagers can be.  Lol.  If you want a behind the scenes look at my crazy self, follow me on Snapchat!!

Today I'm talking accessories!

Statement necklaces are always a great option to dress up any basic outfit. 

How fabulous is this one from Happiness Boutique!  As soon as I saw it I knew that I wanted to wear a basic white tee.  This necklace is anything but basic so I wanted it to stand out on its own.  The problem I had, is that I couldn't decide if I wanted to wear jeans or a skirt.  So I did both!  Next week I'll be wearing the same tee and necklace with a skirt.  I think I like the jeans look better but I'll let you decide.

 

Statement necklaces are still huge for Fall and I think their great for those days that you want to look cute, but not overly dressy.  Throw on your jeans (or a skirt), heels and this beauty and your good to go! 

 

Skirt look up on Monday, stay tuned!

 

Have a great weekend!

Springtery weather means lots of layers!  A denim jacket is a layering essential!  You can wear it now through summer.  I like to wear my denim jackets with pretty much anything.  Denim on denim, shorts, dresses.  Keep it in the office during the summer days to keep you warm.  Their a must have in your closet!

 

 

Ok now lets talk fabulous jewelry aka Rocksbox 

 

This is the second time I work with Rocksbox.  They are a monthly subscription box for designer jewelry!  I know we all love statement jewelry as well as monthly subscription boxes.  Rocksbox combines both and sends you 3 pieces of designer jewelry all for $19 a month. 

 

I find that some statement jewelry can be very expensive and lets be real, how many times are you gonna wear the same pieces over and over again.  Rocksbox lets you wear the jewelry as long as you like!  When you decide your done with those pieces just send them back and get new ones.  It's that easy!  Rocksbox offers brands like Loren Hope, Kendra Scott, House of Harlow, and they've also been featured on Glamour and Forbes magazine.

 

 

Rocksbox offered me a special code to give you a month FREE!  For the first 30 days, my code gives you 1 month FREE!  After 30 days pass, my code transforms to give you 50% off your first month.

If you love jewelry as much as I do, you'll LOVE Rocksbox! 

 

Have a great day sweets!
