The Daily Bling - Tuesday, March 16th

Remember those charmed hoops we loved on the "Countess" Luann Delesseps from NY Housewives? Well guess what - we finally found an AFFORDABLE alternative to the look from one our favorite new fashion/accessories lines Rachel Rachel Roy!

Today's Daily Bling, the Rachel Rachel Roy Bird Hoop Earrings, are sweet and funky at the same time. We love how the little birds perch on the hoop (how adorable!) and the little blue crystal details. These are really unexpected and I am just so happy to have found a charmed hoop that isn't over $100.

On to the dets. They are antique gold-tone and the hoop measures at just about 2 1/4 inches - the perf. oversized hoop size. We could totally see us wearing these all summer long with sundresses and studded sandals. And the best part - they are only $38!

Spring Neutrals Decoded

We have been hearing a lot about the neutral, monochromatic trend for Spring. We are seeing the high-end and affordable stores showing a lot of blushes, khakis, lights grays and metallics layered together. As we divert from our basic winter black I thought I'd help decode how to wear these monochromatic looks without looking too matchy-matchy or too clashy-clashy. When done right, you will be looking nifty in neutral for Spring!

Look 1: Golds and Khakis

The key to complementing a simple khaki shift is with touches of white and gold. We've brought this simple Ann Taylor loft dress to life with gold embellishments and a feminine necklace that makes this outfit the perfect updated work look.

Dress: Ann Taylor Loft

Shoes: Miu Miu

Necklace: J. Crew

Bracelets: Kendra Scott

Bag: J. Crew

Look 2: Greys and Silvers

Grey is still an it color for Spring but instead of your winter charcoals it’s a lighter, airy version of itself. White contrasts beautifully against this light grey shade and silver gives the look a punch. Love this for birthday lunch with a group of girlfriends or at a more casual, creative work environment.

Pants: Tibi

Necklace: Ann Taylor Loft

Bag: Botkier

Shoes: Rachel Rachel Roy

Look 3: Blush and Nude

Blush is my absolute favorite color for Spring. It’s a cooler version of pink, feminine yet not girly, this dusty shade looks relaxed and pretty. I love the idea of matching this silk blush top with casual denim shorts and scarf and dressing it up with a pair of sexy pumps and small clutch to take the look into evening.

Top: J. Crew

Shorts: J. Crew

Scarf: J. Crew

Earrings (remember these?): J. Crew

Shoes: Christian Louboutin

Bag: Marc Jacobs
