Happy Wednesday everyone! I’m really excited because this time next week I will be in Beverly Hills for Lucky Magazine’s Lucky FABB conference! There are going to be so many great speakers and bloggers at the event. I’m looking forward to meeting not only some of the local Seattle bloggers, but others from the greater Pacific Northwest. Follow me on Twitter and Instagram to keep up with my adventures next week, and of course, what I’m wearing!
My jewelry obsession has taken a turn for the worse since I discovered Lulu Frost. I honestly can’t even remember how I stumbled upon this designer, but to say I’m in love is an understatement! Today I’m featuring the Plaza “K” Necklace, part of the Plaza collection. This necklace, available in both numbers and letters, is bronze cast and is in the original font of New York’s iconic Plaza Hotel. I stared at this piece for weeks because it’s definitely an investment, but I could not be more happy with it! (I’m also a sucker for any type of personalization).

I’ve been wearing this piece with everything from casual weekend wear to businesswear. I’ve worn it alone, layered with shorter necklaces (as seen here) and layered with longer necklaces. I built my outfit around this necklace, pulling in blacks and brass colors to help this piece really “pop”. I highly recommend checking out Lulu Frost. I’m also the proud owner of this beautiful Lulu Frost for J.Crew piece and this Lulu Frost for Of a Kind piece.
Another one of my new and noteworthy obsessions are these great pony barrettes from France Luxe. They are perfect for pulling your hair back quickly while on the go without pulling and damaging your hair like a normal hair tie (and more stylish). For my blog I normally wear my hair down, but during the day at work I tend to pull my hair back and these barrettes are perfect for doing just that!
