10 CLASSIC ACCESSORIES EVERY GIRL SHOULD OWN



It's easy to get swept up in shopping for items that will get you through one or two seasons but I really try to focus my resources on pieces that will stand the test of time. These are ten pieces I think every girl should own, whether you can afford them right this moment or you're saving up for something you know will last.

The color of these Tory Burch Reva flats is "iced coffee" which makes them an instant win in my book but I also love these and these.

This one catches light beautifully and works just as well with a silk blouse as it does a white t-shirt.

I'm obviously biased toward these tortoiseshell bangles but I also love tortoiseshell for eyewear.

I'm the kind of person who freezes in movie theaters, offices, restaurants, you name it. Having a scarf tucked in my bag has saved the day on numerous occasions!

Is there a more timeless timepiece? I think not.

These ones cost $14 (meaning you won't be devastated when one falls down the drain).

If you're more likely to wear black, I suggest this one from K. Slademade.

You can never have too many but I'd start with your favorite metallic.

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants in eyewear form, these look good on ev-er-y-one. Trust.

My mom gave me this one from J.Crew for my college graduation and I find it way more youthful than the classic single strand. 

What classics have you picked up lately? Anything you'd add to this list? I'm all ears!



FRIENDS WITH STYLE {WES}

Brooks Brothers jacket (similar) // Vineyard Vines shirt // Cole Haan belt

Say hi to Wes! He's a Bucknell friend of mine who visited last weekend from D.C. and I couldn't resist shooting his cute outfit for weekend brunch. Plaid, polka dots, and a pop of orange — somehow he makes it work and looks good doing it. Don't you wish more boys would be this fearless with color? Real men wear pink... and apparently orange too ;)
