I think my most favorite outfits are those where I have something to say about each & every piece... and I've got a lot to say about these items today!

The jewels (necklace + earrings) that I am rocking are part of the Kendra Scott Spring Collection that just launched. Kendra really outdid herself with this collection. From the dreamy new stones, to the dainty metals that are just asking to be mixed & matched, this latest launch is full of sure fire crowd pleasers. What I appreciate most about KS, & why her jewelry consistently tops my wish list, is the attention to detail. Many of the pieces now come with adjustable features - for example this necklace can be worn at any length because it has this genius slider that allows you to customize it to your perfect spot (many bracelets also have this adjustable feature, so amazing for wrists of all sizes!)

When reflecting on my favorite purchases of 2015, I realized that this was the year I purchased my first pair of pre-ripped jeans (I can hear my mother rolling her eyes from here). I talked more about my love of ripped jeans here & I am now emboldened to take my love of ripped jeans to the next level. These are definitely not jeans for someone trying the ripped denim trend for the first time, but I'm in love! From the wash, to the soft rips, to the zipper details at the bottom - it's two thumbs up! **Fit: I purchased these in my usual size, and the thighs are a little tight, but I'm hoping they relax a little with wear. Shop this exact pair here.

One of my favorite outfit combos is oversized top + skinnier bottoms, & as such, my most beloved sweaters are tunic styles, & my dream is to have a rainbow of options in my closet. This sweater is no longer available from J.Crew Factory, but I did just purchase this similar style sweater (in the mushroom color) & I love it (perfect length, super soft). I'm also going to order this cowl neck tunic & considering this zipper back sweater tunic too. 

What are the pieces you are wearing that you love to talk about?

I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday & be sure to check out my post on 20 of the best Nashville murals from yesterday.
