Accessories Addiction

I'm taking a break from wedding planning to make and admission of guilt:

Hi, my name is Anna and I'm an accessories addict.

It's true; I can't pass up a sparkly ring, stackable bracelets, textured belts, multi-chain necklaces, pendants, and especially scarves.  I love both my cheap, costume jewelry and my investment pieces.  No one does investment pieces like Chanel, and I like to buy those vintage.  Most of my favorite pieces are from DVF, though, like this gorgeous textured belt or her colorful and feminine scarves.  I appreciate her color combinations and ability to go just far enough without going over the edge.  Plus, her site looks a lot like my photo inspiration journals, so I'd like to think DVF could be my BFF.  She's an inspiration as a designer and as a woman.

Check out the DVF blog HERE!

When I'm not drooling over my favorite accessories label, I'm a pretty frugal fashionista.  I don't think that you have to spend a lot of money to look great.  In fact, I know you don't!  I'm in love with some of my recent purchases and I won't even say how much they cost (hint: altogether, they add up to about 1/4 of my favorite DVF scarf).  Check out my recent haul and just imagine that each item cost a small fortune.

Ciao,
A

Sometimes, you just go through a color phase.  Blue photos and items were really catching my eye this week, so that explains the set above.  It's a kind of inspiration board.  For what, I'm not sure of yet.  I just know that I chose certain images and shades for a reason and they end up on my polyvore boards (I was really loving the robins egg blue and the navy blue here).  If you haven't checked out my Polyvore account, be sure to do so.  You can find the link by either clicking on the board above or going to the top of this page and click over from home to the Follow Me section. You should see a logo and you can check out my full account from there.  :)

By the way, check out misskl.com for more great finds like this super cute and cozy Free People beanie!  The site has items from some of my favorite designers and brands like House of Harlow 1960, Betsey Johnson, Alexander Wang, and so many more!  There's even a vintage section (swoon)!  Be careful though - you can window shop for days on the site!
