Gorgeous in Gold

It seems that every excursion recently has resulted in unintentional shopping. Case in point: on Tuesday I ran a quick errand at Target and walked out with two long sleeve shirts, two short sleeve shirts, and three pairs of pants, all from Mossimo!

As promised, today I am sharing my weekend find from the Nordstrom Rack while I was waiting for my iPhone to be ready at Verizon. I can’t walk into the Rack without glancing at their jewelry, and although I wasn’t looking for anything in particular, I spotted these dainty gold skull earrings and couldn’t resist. I have been crushing on gold this year starting with my J.Crew pavé link bracelet that I purchased as a Christmas present for myself. (This may not sound noteworthy, but I have never been into gold jewelry and typically wear mostly silver.)

I wore my new earrings yesterday and I love how the sparkly stones and the gold setting complement each other. The skulls are petite enough to pass in the office without someone asking you if you are wearing skull earrings, yet are a subtle accessory for an edgy look. This was the best thing to come out of my lengthy wait at Verizon…aside from my new phone with all of my apps, of course!
