I spotted the prettiest set of earrings on one of the attendees from a wedding I went to last week. Although her earrings were small they were absolutely dazzling with just enough sparkles in a gold & diamond pave setting. The earrings looked very similar to the ones seen on Olivia Wilde. You can’t see the details from the photo but she’s wearing the Sethi Couture Diamond Ball Stud Earrings. I find these pave ball diamond studs decadent while contemporary and versatile.
Here I’ve gathered up some gorgeous pairs under $100 similar to that of Olivia’s. Rock them on all occasions from weddings to out shopping with the girls!

1. 18 Kt.-Gold-Plated Pave Ball Stud Earrings (sale!)
2. Pop Vintage Rose Stud Pierced Earrings
3. Glam Classics Stud Earrings
4. Crystal Accent Drop Ball Earrings (danglers anyone?)
5. Champagne Crystal Ball Stud Earrings (sale!)
6. Sethi Couture Diamond Ball Stud Earrings
If you want to give someone diamond jewelry (the real deal) as a gift, there is no better classic, simple choice than diamond earrings. And pave styles are a fabulous alternative to plain diamond studs (which many of us already own). Shopping for diamond jewelry can be tricky – before you begin splurging be sure to read up on diamond education so you get the absolute best quality from what your money can buy!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend! After a technical glitch and the wedding to attend, the last few days were just a big blur to say the least. Now I’m happy to be back to business as usual! Oh, and Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful moms out there!
With the peplum trend in full swing this season, make this Asos Peplum Jumpsuit your summertime staple! The peplum detail and vivid hue make this a fabulously chic piece to what otherwise would’ve been a plain jumpsuit. The color says green but it might as well be turquoise. This jumpsuit is the perfect piece to showcase your favorite accessories especially a statement style necklace, earrings and cuffs.
Go for a cropped style jacket to show the peplum detail peeking under when it comes to an outerwear choice. I personally adore this crop tweed jacket from Forever 21. And these studded heels to add some edge to the look.
Check out the rest of our budget-friendly turquoise fashion picks for this summer!

I’ve been fixated on fringe bikinis ever since I spotted one on Rihanna. She rocked a L Space fringe bandeau with a straw cowboy hat and hoop earrings. What a chic head-to-toe beach look! The bandeau top is available in several colors (my fav being gray) and it will look just as fab layered under a chambray shirt. Check out my look for less version below with pieces at fantastically low prices!
Fringe Bandeau, Bottom, Hat, Earrings, Bracelet, Nail Polish, Spray

I actually prefer these bikini tops (use code FREESHIPPING) over the bandeau style. Loving it in black & neon purple (on sale for $20.50 here!). What cha think?

Summer is all about vivid colors and that’s no exception in beauty. I’m craving these beauty goodies in vibrant colors to enjoy this summer!

1. Bobbi Brown Sheer Lip Glosses
Such vivid color yet it goes sheer. If you don’t like shimmery goop then these lip glosses are a perfect option. Looks amazing alone but also fab applied over lipstick (in a similar tone).
2. Ralph Lauren The Big Pony Fragrance Collection for Women
A four scent collection in sporty flask-style bottles. Cool! The summery hues make ‘em even sweeter.
3. Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream
A multi-purpose cream for the eyes, cheeks and lips! The texture is super silky, and it goes on smooth. Plus, the waterproof formula is perfect for playing by the poolside or attending a summer wedding. I’m loving the peachy pink (color 5).

I’ve tried whitening strips in the past but was never impressed enough to use them again (is that you too?). Mainly due to the length of time it required and hassle of strips staying in the mouth before discarding. Who wants to wear strips for 30 minutes let alone for more than an hour? And let’s not even talk about whitening trays…they are so passe!
