When: Monday, February 21st, 2011

Where: It was my day off, so nowhere in particular…

What: Cardigan (H&M), cords (Uniqlo), boots (thrifted via Beacon’s Closet), sunglasses (Dolce & Gabbana via Loehmann’s), ring (H&M), AC DC bracelet set (Amrita Singh via HauteLook)

This is just me enjoying a relaxing day off.  If the weather had been warmer, I definitely would have fired up that grill in the background and had myself a nice little BBQ.

Remember a little while ago when I mentioned that I was overly obsessive a little apprehensive about mixing metals?  Well I am slowly but surely getting over that hump.  I scored these cute multi-color bangles on Hautelook a while back, and I LOVE them.  They’re a little loud when they clang together, but they’re perfect for bridging the gap when I feel weird about my belt buckle and watch not matching.  There’s nothing I love more than bare arms loaded up with bangles, so I have a feeling these will be on heavy rotation come spring and summer.  If you want a set for yourself (which I highly recommend), they’re on sale for $20 (marked down from $75) on the Amrita Singh website.

    Those bangles together are amazing! Not to mention your photographing skills…this last photo especially looks like it was taken by a pro! Back to the bangles though, I can’t stop looking at them, they’re beautiful and allow for so many combinations!!

      I’ll have to give credit to Eric for these particular photos. And yes, these bangles are pretty neat!

    Your mixed metals look GREAT here! I think it is all about how you do it. Since they’re such chunky standout pieces, and since you paired them together, I think it works. It’s clear you’re being purposeful, so thus, it’s trendy. Right? Is that the rule? haha.

    What size did you get please? I’m not sure which to order!

    I got the 8, because that’s all they had left on Hautelook. However, they’re a little too big for me (I have small wrists), so I’d recommend the 7.
