Some Tings.

In college, I went on a few spring break trips with my girlfriends.  On one such trip, we were at a club (lololol, clubs.) and there was an enormous mural on the wall that read: PROTECT YA TINGS, MON.

Every now and then, that phrase pops into my head.

So, here are some tings for ya today, mon.

I love (!) these preppy stockings ($30), especially if I lived somewhere coastal and mild around the holidays (DuckHead?).

Prosecco bears ($12)?!?!? YES PLEASE.  Perfect stocking stuffer.  Or maybe one of these sample boxes ($25).

The perfect addition to a candle as a hostess gift — these matches come in all different shades ($16).  Or great for upping the ante on a well-styled shelf/tray.


 

A great (and better-priced!) alternative to my Alexandre Birman Clarita sandals in nude: these tootsies from new-to-me-brand Raye ($215).  I GUARANTEE you will get endless wears out of a classic neutral like this.

 

I love this mini from Self-Portrait ($460).  You gotta be pretty confident about your stems though, eh?  A little brief.  I already own this somewhat similar style in stark white from Self-Portrait, though…too much?!

Fur poms have been all over the place this season — on bags, on hats, on shoes.  Errywhere.

A few of my fav ways to nail this look:

+Gloves ($88).

+Eugenia Kim for BR flats ($415) — or get the look for less with these.

+Earrings (so fun! — $26).

+Personalized key chain ($49).

+PLV heels (on sale for $227).

+Fur pom hat (on sale for $69 — I snagged this variation from J.Crew for $39).

 

Intermix’s sale is EPIC. This gorgeous winter white romper is on sale for a mere $120!!!  How amazing?!  I also love this OTS navy stunner.

My velvet obsession continues — how stunning would you look in these Mignonne Gavigan earrings ($125 — mine just arrived and I’m OBSESSED), a lace-trimmed silken tank ($25), a velvet skirt ($49), and bow-toed flat in glam gold (Prada, on sale for $465).

 

Have I gone too far, or are these velvet booties ($149) kind of rad?!  I’m kind of obsessed.

 

These personalized tortoise clutches, OMG! ($298).
