Loved pairing my custom made vest from Etsy with these fun Levi jeans and a boho top!

I purchased this little crop tee with ruched sides from old navy (I sized up to medium) because I thought it would be so cute with high waisted bottoms like jeans, linen pants, and skirts!

This knobby knit sweater is so cozy, bulky, and cute. I own it in two colors!

My friend Christina (her insta handle is @scarfandamug) wore a Canadian tuxedo and gave me the inspiration for this outfit. I loved it!

This outfit is pretty causal but the wrap top makes it slightly more elevated, along with the printed socks.

Just a cozy hoodie with flare leggings— a cold winter day outfit perfection!

I LOVED pairing a green graphic tee with my green linen pants— will definitely be wearing a summer version of this outfit with linen shorts!

This was an outfit I just threw on and ended up liking how it looked a lot 🙂 (sorry my mirror is dusty!)

My jacket isn’t available anymore, but I loved this mauve with my green belt bag.

Jewelry: My Top Picks for Brands and Pieces

I wear jewelry just about every day, and my favorite pieces are typically simple, yellow gold pieces. They add interest, personality, sparkle, and make me feel more put together. If you’re interested in adding classic, simple, and beautiful jewelry to your collection, this blog post is a great resource. It will feature my favorite jewelry pieces and brands that I believe are worth exploring.

For me, necklaces are my most worn pieces–I have about 6-8 necklaces I cycle through and then I generally wear a simple pair of hoops most days (I have two favorites).
There are 3 brands that I typically wear the most, & I’ll be sharing my everyday go-to pieces and the pieces I wear when I want to dress up a little more.



The first brand I want to mention is Sela Designs.
Sela Designs is a remarkable brand that deserves recognition for its outstanding commitment to making a positive impact. Their mission revolves around donating 100% of their profits to charities that aid victims of human trafficking, individuals trapped in poverty, and orphaned children. The combination of their philanthropic efforts and their dedication to crafting ethically made, top-notch jewelry makes them an excellent choice for conscientious customers. As an added bonus, I am thrilled to collaborate with them and share a special discount code with you. By using the code MARISSA10 at checkout, you can enjoy a 10% discount on any purchase from their shop.

The first piece I want to share from Sela Designs is the Everyday Hoop Earrings. These are one of my favorites & most worn pairs of earrings. I love that they are lightweight, simple, and easy to wear. They clip into themselves, (so my hair doesn’t get stuck in them) & they are a perfect amount of thickness to add interest to your outfit.

The second piece I love from Sela Designs are the Ivory Lake Earrings. These earrings are ones I wear when I want to dress up a little bit more and they are stunning– the raffia adds beautiful texture to your outfit and the disks are a neutral bone color.

I own multiple other pairs of earrings from Sela Designs, but the colors I own them in are sold out. I will share the other colors here: The Mia Earrings (I own the black) & the Oakleigh Earrings, which are pictured on the left (I own the cognac).

There are many other pieces from Sela Designs that include more earrings, necklaces, & bracelets, so be sure to check them out!

The second brand I want to share is GLDN. They have an extensive range of amazing pieces, and what’s even more exciting is that a lot of their collection is customizable! This means you can create jewelry that perfectly reflects your personal style. I have had the pleasure of partnering with GLDN in the past, although regrettably, I don’t have a discount code to offer in this blog post. If I am able to secure one in the future, I will update this post and include it here.

I have been wearing GLDN jewelry for 5-6 years. It all began when my husband gifted me with a beautifully crafted necklace from GLDN when they were still solely on Etsy. Since then, I have become a fan and collector of their pieces. In fact, I can confidently say that the majority of the necklaces I wear most frequently are from GLDN. So, needless to say, I have an assortment of their pieces to share with you.

The necklace my husband bought me is the Lucine Necklace. It’s so dainty and gorgeous! I love the hammered open circle detail and how simple and sweet it is. I have it in the 15-17″ option, but I also own a necklace extender that I use when I want to make my shorter necklaces longer. The Mona Necklace is very similar to the one I own, it’s just a smaller circle (9mm instead of 11mm).

The next necklace I wear ALL the time is the Marama Necklace. I customized mine with a hammered finish and mine is the 19-21″ length. It looks great all on its own or layered with any of my other necklaces.

Another favorite is the Small Flora Link Necklace. I had mine customized with my birth month flower and I have the 15-17″. I love that this one is suspended (like the Lucine circle necklace) because it stays in place and doesn’t spin around.

Another necklace I wear often is the Friendship Beads Necklace. I customized mine with 3 beads to represent my two sons and my husband, but you can add up to 7 beads. This necklace is so simple and pretty.

Other necklaces I wear often are Maia Gemstone Necklace (you can customize the bead colors– I think my color is sold out), the Personalized Mary Necklace (with the starburst illustration on it), and the Personalized Florence Necklace (mine is hammered).

LLUME is the third and final brand I want to share. They are a small brand that creates beautiful and affordable jewelry. A lot of their pieces are meant to mix and match and be worn and styled together. I also love that they offer free shipping and returns! LLUME reached out to me in the past to collaborate and they were kind enough to give me a discount code for this post. You can use the code “MARISSA15” to get 15% off any purchase from their store.

My favorite piece from their store is the Prosecco Beaded Hoop earrings (I am wearing them in the picture to the right, although they’re hard to see). I have owned them for a year now, and I’m not kidding when I say they are my most worn pair of earrings. They’re small, lightweight, and the beaded texture is just too cute. If I wanted to sleep in them I could because they close into themselves and are so comfortable.

The other piece I own from Llume is the Colette Necklace. It’s a simple and dainty gold chain that’s perfect for everyday wear and layering. It looks great on it’s own or combined with other necklaces.

Jewelry is a great way to add some personality and sparkle to any outfit. Whether you prefer delicate pieces or bold statement jewelry, there’s something out there for everyone. What are your favorite jewelry pieces? Let me know in the comments below!

I hope this post was helpful and if you have any questions, please feel free to comment, send me an email or send me a message and I’d be happy to help!

Five Favorite Sandals for Summer

In the summer pretty much all I wear is sandals. I’m not much of a sneaker girl, and I like to let my feet out for the 3 months of the year its actually warm here in Northern NY. I’ve rounded up my top 5 favorite sandals of this year. Some of them I’ve had for a few years and some of them are newer finds. I will link all of the shoes at the bottom of this post!

(this post contains affiliate links. I receive a small commission if an item is purchased through these links & there is no additional cost to you. Thank you for supporting me!)

These are my oldest pair of shoes. They’re a great smaller wedge and I wear them to DEATH. I’ve had this pair for years (from Target) and I’ll link this years version of them with a thinner ankle strap.

These lace up sandals from Old Navy are so bohemian and fun! I had another pair of lace up sandals but they were bulkier. These are a “barely there” kind of sandal and I love the look of them!

These T-strap rubber sandals are some of the comfiest shoes I own. They are Crocs and super neutral so they go with everything!

These Target heels are one of my newer purchases. They have a small block heel and are so comfortable!

I love these woven slides that I picked up this year. They have a cushioned footbed, a little bit of height (which is great for my feet issues!) and they come in widths if you have wider feet.

Shop the shoes here!
