MONOGRAMMED NECKLACE GIVEAWAY!



Amy and I took these photos en route to the Tribeca Film Festival over the weekend (I just subbed the flats out for heels — a must for walking in the city!). I had been coveting this striped dress since seeing it on Pinterest months and months ago and pounced when I found it on sale for 50% off online. And I've gotten so many compliments on these new baby blue loafers from Sole Society — they really are the perfect walking shoe and at a price that makes them too good to resist. 

Now let's talk about the necklace. It's by Denver jeweler Elizoebeth Jensen, whose designs are perfect for everyday wear and available in sterling silver, yellow gold, and rose gold. When she offered to send me a necklace, I chose the Gables necklace in yellow gold with a three-letter monogram (though I also love the Shield Crest necklace!). Her jewelry is the perfect gift for ladies of all ages — I would love to have one made for Mother's Day! Elizoebeth is kindly giving away one necklace to a lucky Design Darling reader so decide which necklace you'd most like to receive and follow the steps in the widget below! I'll be contacting the winner on Sunday. Good luck! Oh and if you decide you can't wait until then, use code DESIGNDARLING20 for 20% off at checkout :)

WEEKEND WARDROBE

scalloped sweater  /  earrings  /  lip gloss  / wedges  /  cuff  /  skinny jeans  /  clutch (25% off code FRIENDLY)

How darling is this scalloped sweater? My friend Kathleen emailed it to me and I don't think I can live without it. Which color do you like best? I probably don't need another navy top but it's so tempting...

I'm really looking forward to a weekend at home after last week's Austin escapades. Tonight Amy and I are headed to the Tribeca Film Festival to see the documentary Dior and I and tomorrow my friend Jane is hosting a dinner party (teach me your ways!). Besides that, there will be lots of coffee, time at the dog park, and wandering my new neighborhood. I hope you all have a good one! xx
