Inspired by

I wore this dress in my last outfit post, but I saw how Julie styled it and I wanted to give it another go by styling it similar to how she did. I got this gorgeous top from Olive Green Anna a couple weeks ago and this outfit was perfectly suited for it! I've been wanting to invest in some belts lately because I use them really frequently and I've had the same four belts for years. I really want some wider ones because all of mine are really thin. I think I would've liked this outfit better if I'd worn a wider belt like Julie's. I'm pretty frugal so I don't like spending money on stuff like accessories, but I'm trying to invest in them because they really do add that bit of interest to an outfit. I've also been wanting a new messenger bag because I use the same one all the time for my camera and laptop, but it's not really suitable for either. I wrote a post a while ago about Kelly Moore Bags and I'm really still thinking about getting that Libby bag because it's just perfect for what I need. Just gotta save up some money!

This lovely little fox necklace was sent to me by Sarah from A Lost Feather. She's coming out with her own little jewelry line inspired by this piece. She sent me a little info on the line:

"The Framed Fox Pendant was one of my first jewelry designs and was the inspiration for my new line, Of the Earth // Of the Sky (available early May) I wanted to create pieces that spoke to my love of the great outdoors- animals found in the forest, designs created in nature, stars that light the sky. I'm so excited to share all that I've been creating!"
