We all know I’m a huge fan of huggie earrings for the office (as in, hoops so small they “hug” your ears) and Etsy seller 360 Jewels Elite has a wide selection. It’s a mystery to me why the earrings are described as “men’s earrings,” but let’s put that aside — I’m digging these simple … Read More about Coffee Break – Rose Gold Huggie Earrings
Coffee Break – Ashby Wedge Pump
I’m really into wedge heels this season, and I like this reasonably-priced shoe from Naturalizer. I like the plain black leather one, myself, but the Naturalizer site has them in a black and gray croc pattern, Amazon and Zappos both have them in a brown croc, and Piperlime has them in a lovely wine. They’re … Read More about Coffee Break – Ashby Wedge Pump
Coffee Break – Multicolor Long Beaded Pendant Necklace
One of Target’s latest collaborators is jewelry designer Dana Kellin. Her regular line has prices ranging from $100-$600, but at Target they generally top out around $50. I like this pendant with multicolored beads — it looks like it’s a great way to jazz up a simple button-front blouse or sweater. It’s $49.99 at Target. … Read More about Coffee Break – Multicolor Long Beaded Pendant Necklace
Coffee Break – Pro Lesson Palette
I like this kit that takes you through two looks: a natural eye and a smokey eye. This one is for brown eyes, but they also have them for blue and green eyes. The kit is $28 at Sephora. SEPHORA COLLECTION Pro Lesson Palette: Brown Eyes ($65 Value) Pro Lesson Palette: Brown Eyes
Coffee Break – Chika Pumps
Wow: I’m not that familiar with the brand Jean-Michel Cazabat, but apparently these shoes (which look really cute!) retail for around $345. Not today — one of 6pm.com’s sales of the day is this designer blowout (including these shoes) and they are now marked 86% off, down to $49.95. Insane! Inventory is going fast so … Read More about Coffee Break – Chika Pumps
Coffee Break – Sapphire Pump
Reader E wrote in a while ago to recommend this good-looking shoe from Isola, the newest line from the same folks who make Sofft and Born shoes. She notes: “Had not tried the brand before, but it is a bit higher of a heel than a more black cherry patent pump I have from Soft. … Read More about Coffee Break – Sapphire Pump
Coffee Break – Perfect Skinny Calf Hair Belt
I love royal blue, and the calf hair gives it a really interesting texture. I’d wear it on top of a dark blue cardigan with gray slacks and purple pumps. It’s $44 at Ann Taylor. Perfect Skinny Calf Hair Belt (L-2)
Coffee Break – Stripeweb Large Weekender
How many LeSportsac Large Weekenders (Large Weekender LeSportsacs? hmmn) can one woman own before people think she’s seriously crazy? I already have two, but this one is calling my name — love that bright stripe against the blackness. (There’s another version of this with a gray/blue stripe in much more muted tones if the pink/orange … Read More about Coffee Break – Stripeweb Large Weekender
Coffee Break – Oval Stacks Necklace
I was actually going to post another necklace from Anthropologie today, but this one went so nicely with this morning’s sweater that I had to change it up a bit. Love the simple shapes and bright, flattering color — I’d wear it with a dark red (like this morning’s TPS) or dark purple in the … Read More about Coffee Break – Oval Stacks Necklace
Coffee Break – Classic Lock Haircalf EW Bowler
It’s been a while since I’ve seen a sophisticated bowler bag, and I really like this one from Olivia Harris b Joy Gryson. The way she she plays with textures is particularly cool, from the calf hair body, to the reptile embossed leather trim at bottom, to the kid leather details at top. It’s rare … Read More about Coffee Break – Classic Lock Haircalf EW Bowler
Coffee Break – Bamboo Small Pave Hoop Earrings
I’m not normally a fan of posts, but I might make an exception for these gorgeous bamboo hoops with — squee! — tiny blue sapphire pave accents. A small earring, a flash of color near your face… Lovely. They’re $650. Bamboo Small Pave Hoop Earrings (L-2)
Coffee Break – Lola Flats
I really like the cap-toed look to these flats from Geox. The lilac/prune pair (pictured here — love that bit of red where the cap toe meets the rest of the shoe) would be a lovely unexpected pop of color to a pair of black pants, gray pants, and definitely navy pants. They range from … Read More about Coffee Break – Lola Flats
