Obsession Alert - Slave Bracelets

Anytime I get a new obsession (which is fairly often), I always feel the need to hide my credit card temporarily. This new love is no different. I'm a sucker for any accessory and new ways to spice up an outfit. That's why slave bracelets are completely ah-mazing. These vintage pieces are coming back into style and mark my words, you will see them on just about every celebrity.

Slave bracelets combine a shiny metal bracelet that is attached to a ring (or simply just your finger). There are a lot of different styles of this. Some are simple and just include one chain that connects the two, and others are way more elaborate and involve a whole hand decoration. My favorite ones are vintage & can be found at different vintage stores or on sites like Etsy.com (another FAV).

The best thing about these bracelets is that you can kind of search for them everywhere to find new & unique ones. There isn't just one site that I would recommend. Of course Ebay, Etsy, Art Fire, & Bonanza sell vintage (my top recommendation), but some local second hand shops can have them too. If you are looking to buy them online at a retailer here are a few great ones I spotted.







I know you want to buy 20 or umm at least 1 of these fabulous bracelets. They aren't even that expensive which is a huge plus. 

Enjoy!

Bodysuits do it right

I've been obsessed with bodysuits for a while, but now they are finally everywhere & I couldnt possibly be happier!! For starters, every girl hates tucking her top into a skinny skirt & you have that tacky shirt line all around. Or, if you tuck it into shorts & it puffs out in all the wrong places? Totally frustrating! My obsession started back in October when I bought an amazing black vintage lace bodysuit. Completely versatile, completely comfortable.

Bodysuits can be worn with high waisted pants, shorts, skirts, you name it!! It sits tightly on your body, so no need to keep re-adjusting your shirt over and over again. Of course I have a few favorites... maybe I'll have to add to my collection too?? Hmm








Loving every single one of those ... whoever invented bodysuits is amaze, they are major outfit life savers! 

Xoxo,
