Bracelet for Small Wrists – Stella & Dot Renegade Bracelet

by AlterationsNeeded on March 28, 2012

I get a lot of emails asking about small size bracelets, so I’m always happy to share ones I find, especially if they’re of good quality and stylish design. I first sneak peeked this Stella & Dot Renegade bracelet (also comes in silver) in this post and have been wearing it non-stop since. Like many [...]

After a rainy couple of days, I’m finally able to step outside and take some photos! Holy moly, my purchases last week have me so excited, I literally have a notebook page filled with outfit idea scribblings.

Knit blazers are slowly taking over my jacket wardrobe. Take note if like me, you happen to have a hard time finding blazers that fit…knit blazers are almost like cheating when it comes to blazers. The knit fabric is meant to stretch, so they’re often cut a little smaller than a traditional wool or cotton [...]
