"What's inspiring you for the blog lately?" A question asked by a co-worker last week to which I immediately replied, "rings!" No, not engagement or weddings rings, but ones you can wear on a daily basis. You know the ones - beautiful stackables, statement, vintage, dainty, modern + so much more! Fashion rings have really just become a necessity for my everyday use, adding a little touch of elegance to any outfit that I put together. It obviously also hints at lovely femininity and a little something romantic, even though there are no strings attached to wearing them. Put your finger on this - you can be bold, chic AND stylish while wearing these gems every day. There are so many various styles of rings to choose from, it was hard to narrow it down, but here are a few that stood out amongst the crowd. After you've shopped a few of the links below, let me know in the comments what your favorite style ring is! 
Bauble Bar: Trinity Ring  
Bauble Bar: Misty Druzy Ring 
kate spade new york: Black-Tone Dark Crystal Pave Cat Ring

It's one of those weeks where you keep trying and trying, but there's always something that ends up getting in the way of being successful in finishing what you need to do. I've been going through this for the last week and a half, but it's only been getting worse the past couple days. I don't know if it's lack of motivation or just being so tired after work, but I'm not happy with myself? Is anyone else feeling this way lately? I hope I'm not the only one.
 
This brings me to my inspiration for the post today.. just feeling the mood of all black everything. I think fall and black go hand in hand, and there's the easiness of being able to incorporate this color into every part of your wardrobe. You can be so many things with this color: sophisticated, romantic, sexy and classy. I love how it flatters any body type also. What's your favorite part of wearing black?!

OUTFIT:  Blazer: Forever21 | Blouse: H&M | Pants: Gap | Shoes: Given To Me | Bag: ODLR for Target | Ring: Anjolee Jewelry

Happy Friday! Well, as much as it can be happy since we just received a whole ton of snow. Isn't it supposed to be rain showers that bring flowers? Not snow?! Anyways, for today's Fashion Friday I wanted to take photos outside but since it's cold and wet I figured I would stick inside. Today's outfit is inspired by mixing casual and dressy together.. I am really digging pairing blazers and more laid back pants or denim together. I know the trend has been around for awhile, but I'm just slowly getting it. Haha. Sorry the low quality photos, yet again, but I am trying my hardest. I can't believe I wore heels with this outfit since I usually feel like a giant in them, but I liked how they paired nicely with the pants. Another reason I am doing this post today is because of a great company that reached out to me through here! Anjolee Jewelry is a high-end jewelry manufacturer that allows you to customize your jewelry to whatever you like. They make all their own jewelry and they've been around since 1977! All of the customer service I received from this company has been super great and they've only been very friendly. I received this bridal set ring as payment for reviewing this great company! I decided to style it up with this outfit since it's not too overwhelming and it's a gorgeous topaz gemstone, my favorite!
 
Go check out Anjolee and tell them Mostly Lisa sent you! Hope you all have a beautiful weekend!

Happy Monday y'all!

Hope your weekend was great. I had to work both Saturday and Sunday, but it was good because I found out that I am going to be Employee of the Month for August! It makes me feel great to know I am doing something right there and that hard work does pay off.

I'm SO EXCITED right now because I can finally let you know about this collaboration I have been working on with Erisha A. of A Thing Created! She is SO absolutely talented and she does these amazing illustrations, which I only wish I could have the hand for. For our first collab, we decided on doing an all things 'sparkle and shine' with an added bonus of the items being under $100! I can always go with a deal and there are so many great jewelry sites out there that are inexpensive and offer gorgeous products. With a little inspiration from BaubleBar, my idea for this post, and her fantastic mind she came up with this fabulous lady. Aaaamazing! I feel so honored that she approached me about this, and I can't wait to see what else we can work on together. Make sure to go check out her site, and let me know what you think about this collaboration! In the meantime, check out this inspiration board that says you can never have too much bling in your life.

Sssssay hi to one of my favorite trends for this spring. The snake print. According to the Lunar calendar, 2013 is the year of the snake, which makes this all the more fun. Snakeskin is practically everywhere, at least it was on the runway. Donning on handbags, shoes, jewelry, and made its way onto some gorgeous dresses (as seen in Erdem and Proenza Schouler). The print can be bold and unconventional, but it makes the perfect choice to add that edge to your wardrobe! It may seem intimidating at first to try to wear, but it can be easy to pull off. I am going to start off easy and mix it into an accessory, and then possibly a maxi dress.What do you think of this trend? Would you dare to slither into this trend?
 
Have a great weekend!
 
Always,
Mostly Lisa
