etsy fridays: ring ring

I would like to start with a very important disclaimer: I will not be using a single Beyonce lyric in this entire Etsy Friday post. So if you're looking for some tired ass pop-culture reference- move along, friend.
Now. To more important things. I love me some jewels. These days I am all about the fake gold. Add some color and a dope statement ring and we have got a winning combination. Etsy has such huge section of handmade and vintage rings, I have to admit, it was really hard to find some of these favorites. I mean, not that hard I guess. I am a professional after all. Aside from the $500 whopper, which of these should I add to my collection? Thoughts? Have a great weekend! xoxo, whit.

style inspired by: rare 1967 photos of twiggy

This week I came across these amazing, rare vintage photos of Twiggy from a trip she took to California in 1967. By this time she was already the face of 1960's fashion. Most photos seen of her from this time are from photo shoots or magazine covers like Vogue, Seventeen and even Newsweek. So, it's refreshing to see these candid shots of the model that let her personal style and adorable personality shine. I chose my three favorites below but be sure to check out more swingin' photos from her trip, here

These photos inspired me to put a look together based on her effortless style. I am normally not a fan of wide leg culotte-style pants but was surprised by how many totally wearable styles there are out there. The pair I found below from Asos are super cute and reasonably priced! Plus they are perfect for Spring! What do you think of my take on Twiggy's casual, chic 60's style? I mean, I would wear it all...obvs. ;)
