This Saturday I had a last minute meetup with Lydia and Christine, which is always fun! Sadly it was a rainy day so I wasn't really in the mood to dress cute (Lydia was, she braved a skirt.) So here we have my rainy day outfit, which is basically my every day outfit, jeans + tee + sweater!

Song of the Day: After the Rain Has Fallen by Sting

Tee: Urban Outfitters (super old), Sweater: J.Crew (Roundabout Resale), Jeans: Current/Elliott (The Outnet), Necklaces c/o Anjolee and blue nile, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage, Brilliant Imports snake ring & Mom's


The first week of December has come and gone. Pretty soon it will be Christmas. Woohoo! But I don't want it to come too fast. I need to enjoy the Christmas music and movies for a long time. I took a night off from Christmas movies last night to watch The Sound of Music Live with Carrie Underwood.  It was so fun, did you watch?  The Sound of Music is one of my favorite movies so I enjoyed seeing it done this way. Carrie did a great job.

Moving on, here are my outfits from this week! We had some nice, warm-ish weather so on Wednesday I didn't even need my coat (I did put on my big French Connection vest though.)
Monday: Sweater: Phillip Lim x Target, Jeans: Current/Elliott (RueLaLa), Flats: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Shopbop), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's

Happy Friday! It has gotten quite chilly over the past week, we even had some snow on Tuesday morning.  Pretty soon I'm going to have to start wearing my real coat.  As you can see I repeated my outfit from Saturday, but no one at work had seen it so I figured why not! I also stayed true to my word (from yesterday) and wore a couple skirts this week!

I'm looking forward to this weekend. Tonight I'm headed to my aunts for a massage and sleepover in exchange for helping her with her website.  Then I'll probably head to Marshalls at some point to shop for my next Project Fab posts! Super excited for these upcoming ones!

Monday: Sweater: Madewell, Jeans:  rag & bone (Shopbop), Flats c/o Joie (also here),  Necklace c/o Anjolee, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's

Tuesday: Sweater: American Eagle, Jeans: Genetic Denim c/o Piperlime, Rain Boots: dav (giveaway win), Necklace c/o O Necklace, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's

Wednesday: Sweater: Inis Crafts (Marshalls), Skirt: Chanel (Roundabout Resale), Heels: Miu Miu (eBay), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's


Thursday: Tee: Cullen (Rue La La), Blazer: Marc by Marc Jacobs (eBay), Skirt: Siena Style (Coco's $10 sale), Heels: Dolce & Gabanna (Uptown Consignment), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's
Here is the outfit I wore to debut my Anjolee necklace (detail photos and information here.) I also wore the newest sweater in my closet. I got it on at Madewell when they had an additional 40% off sale items + free shipping, my favorite kind of sale! As I've said many times before - my Fall (and Winter) uniform is a sweater and jeans.  I need to force myself to wear skirts and dresses in the cold weather and to try new combinations, but on weekends I always fall back to my foolproof look.  Why dress up when all you'll be doing is hanging around at home or spending hours shopping at Marshalls, Home Depot and Michael's (like I did this day.)

Sweater: Madewell, Jeans:  rag & bone (Shopbop), Flats c/o Joie (also here),  Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Saks Friends & Family Sale),  Sunglasses: : Ray Ban 'Emma' (Marshalls),  Necklace c/o Anjolee, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's


Who doesn't love a good diamond? Exactly. Anjolee recently let me choose a diamond necklace from their site to review. I chose this GORGEOUS three stone horizontal pendant. I am a big fan of the less is more mantra when it comes to diamonds (if they're too big they look fake, in my opinion,) so these smaller ones are perfect. The quality of the necklace is superb, although I had a little trouble putting it on (I blame it on the fact that I couldn't see the clasp and it is smaller than average.) The necklace is the perfect size and is a great classic, dainty piece that I will wear for years to come.  This necklace will definitely be in my rotation for daily use, it will compliment any outfit it is paired with.

The best thing about Anjolee is the fact that you can customize each piece exactly as you want it.  So you can go for the best of the best or a more budget friendly option depending on your needs. They offer 7 types of metal, various total carat weights, diamond quality and size, for each jewelry item on their website. Many of the pieces also include colored gems which you can choose making them great for gift giving: birthstone jewelry is always a good idea in my book. For example, the diamonds in the necklace below can be switched out for gemstones (either the center one, or the sides.) I toyed with the idea of making the center diamond an Amethyst (my favorite color) but decided to keep it basic.

Check back tomorrow for the outfit post featuring the necklace!



* Mine are not actual diamonds; for the purpose of the review I was sent a sample with cubic zirconia rather than diamonds.

** I received the necklace free for the purpose of this post, all opinions are my own.
