Comfy Camo & oNecklace review

jeans: h&m+ // shirt: dots // wedges: dolce vita // cocoon shell: thrifted // necklace: c/o oNecklace

Let's all notice really quickly that my hair is growing longer and looking pretty stellar. (Big dreams, baby steps)  Woo! Now, that is out of the way we can move on to what is really important.  Like any normal fashion loving girl raised in the 90s, I fascinated with Carrie Bradshaw.  Her infamous Carrie necklace was super popular when the show was on the air, but has made a bit of a resurgence lately.

It is synonymous with her character and now I have one of my own from oNecklace that will accompany me to all of my merrymaking adventures!

I love the perfect size of the necklace, along with the fact that I could customize the length of necklace to find the right chain length for me!  I was half-tempted to get my twitter/instagram handle (@missbekah) BUT I definitely liked the iconic Carrie style.  

Check out other styles and color options here.

Have the most terrific Tuesday! I'm sure they have 2-for-1 margs somewhere...

oNecklace sent me this necklace in exchange for an honest review, all opinions above are my own.

bad days + new necklaces

Yesterday was a rough one, kids.  You know those days where you feel completely drained and the hits keep coming + coming.  Yep- that was my Tuesday from hell.  After a good cry session in my car, and some sweet words from my buds on Twitter, plus some ibuprofen and sweet tea, I was feeling a bit better.These aren't the perfect days for taking outfit pics, but it was the perfect day to get a stunning new necklace in the mail.  Talk about a pick me up!

I won a giveaway on Linley's blog, Dwelling and Telling last month. I WAS ECSTATIC!I won a Stella Date Necklace! I could choose any milestone specific date and Ann Marie made me a one-of-a-kind sweet and adorable necklace.  I chose my birthday! I can safely say this would make the perfect gift for anyone's birthday, a new mom, or newlyweds!

{DIY: Jewelry Pin Board}

I was having a bit of trouble keeping all of my statement necklaces and long jewelry organized and in sight.  I saw this pin on Pinterest :

 I knew it would keep this merrymaker's jewelry in the right place.I also had a bulletin board in my closet that needed a facelift.  Here we go!
Pretty easy steps:1. Pick some fab fabric.  I went for a tribal pattern.  Obvi! Depending on your size of bulletin board you may need anywhere from 1 yard to a 1.25 yards.

2. Spread fabric taut over bulletin board 

& pin/staple fabric along border.  I used these push pins from Target ($2.99) because they are pretty :)  Then use a sharp knife or exacto knife to cut off extra fabric along the sides.

3. HANG ON THE WALL! :)

4. Use more pins to hang jewelry in whatever order you'd like!

5. ENJOY and more importantly... 

Accessorize.
