I think I spent my entire 20’s wearing ZERO accessories.
In fact, I can remember thinking how much I hated when my mom would wear pretty earrings and necklaces that looked so glamourous. I didn’t understand how much a piece of jewelry could make or break an outfit.
I guess I was too into boys at the time.
Which is ironic, since you ‘d think that I would have realized that jewelry enhances your fashion which makes you more attractive in the eyes of a man. Or at least in the eyes of a college aged man.
Oh to be in college again.
Flash forward to my 30’s and I seriously hardly ever leave my house without my accessories. Necklace, earrings and watch…are in my every day attire.
And I love how by just adding one piece of jewelry that you can change the look of so many different outfits.
Make them dressy. Or casual. Or flashy. Or simple.
I absolutely love this teal statement necklace by Caroline G Shop. I have so many different pieces from her jewelry collection and I wear them all the time. ALL THE TIME.
So much, in fact, that she has been one of our featured brands in Happy Mommy Box on two separate occasions. Yes, I love her that much that I begged her to share her jewelry with all of our happy mommies.
I met Carrie at Blissdom a few years ago and instantly fell in love with her. She has the biggest heart and the best sense of style!

I love accessorizing, too! And I absolutely LOVE your blog!
Angela says
I’m on the verge of my 29th birthday and I just thought the other day how I always look frumpy now that I’m a SAHM. A few jewelry pieces would be amazing! I need to invest in some quality pieces and some cute flats!
Susan says
I am a little lazy when it comes to accessorizing, but I am trying to up my game and wear at least one statement piece a day. It’s amazing how it adds so much to an outfit and I always get compliments!
Whitney says
Accessories complete an outfit and help you to look put together. They are a MUST for any season!!
Melissa Lee says
I ALWAYS have earrings and the ring made in honor of my stillborn son, Simon, on before I leave the house. I also like to accessorize with necklaces and scarves. I am in some serious need of some cute bracelets and a watch though!
Katheryn says
I’m 32, and still not good with accessorizing. I love others’ style, and want to be better though. This giveaway might help me jumpstart!
Chelsea says
I also have never been big into accessorizing. Until the last two years, I wouldn’t even wear simple earrings. Now that statement necklaces have become so popular I have started a collection of my own and now LOVE wearing necklaces!
Susie says
Choosing accessories is one of my favorite forms of entertainment. My outfit is not complete until I have put on my earrings, bracelets, necklace and/or scarf. I also have watches in a variety of styles and colors.
I need more statement necklaces to round out my wardrobe.
Elisabeth says
I wear the basics everyday… Earrings, watch, necklace, and wedding rings:)

I wear the same accessories every day – I’m even bored with myself and need to mix it up!
Suzan says
I love recently starting wearing more bright necklaces and am loving how they can change the look of an outfit!
Suzan says
I have recently started wearing brightly colored necklaces and love the look and change it can make with a simple outfit!
Amber says
I went through a period that I never wore accessories, high school and college. Before and after, I would never leave the house without at least one necklace. I wear necklaces or a scarf at all times now!
Cate says
I don’t wear accessories too often! I have a rosie posie necklace from polka dot posie that i wear occasionally. I try, but I’m just not as fashionable as others! I’m working on that though!
Page says
I’m all about the statement necklaces!
Paige @ Reasons to Come Home says
I love accessories but seem to have a hard time picking them out for myself. I see them on other people and love them but when I go to buy them I start asking myself if I would really wear it or what I would wear it with and talk myself out of buying it. I think I just need to buy a variety of colors so I will always have something to match ๐
Lindsey says
I’m working on adding more color to my life – with fun jewelry!!
Susan Jeffries says
I think it was well said in that movie Steel Magnolias- “Accessorizing is what separates us from the animals”;) I follow Carrie on IG because of her kind heart and positive posts. She has a great jewelery business going on too! I love the double strand necklace in turquoise – perfect color for summer! You look lovely! Thanks for the fun! Susan
Jessica V says

Oh to be able to accessorize! Happens rarely in my house, lots of little boys.

I try to wear more accessories, but sometimes I think they don’t look good on me. I am going to challenge myself to do it ๐
Liz says
My favorite accessory is my fuchsia Kate Spade purse. I always wear a watch, necklace, earrings, and bracelet.
Katie says
I love to when I go out or get dressed up.
Amanda C says
I love adding in chunky bracelets and a fun necklace to accessorize! My everyday staples though are my earrings and cross necklace. Never leave without them.
Rhonda says
I very lightly accessorize but love that necklace. Would love a chance to get one of my own!
Jody says
I LOVE accessories, especially a statement earring or necklace, but still mastering the art of pairing just the right ones with my clothes ๐
Lisa says
I didn’t really start accessorizing until my late 40’s. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Sam M says
I love accessorizing! Especially statement earrings and I always have a bright purse!!
Marie says
I have such trouble with picking out accessories! I don’t know what it is. I’m 31 now, so hopefully it will kick in for me soon?!? I guess I have a hard time paying for accessories, so I buy cheap accessories that I end up not liking enough to wear.
Megan Garner says
Necklaces have become my new obsession!
Emma says
I love wearing scarves!
Erin says
I wore a lot of jewelry in my late 20’s when I was a working girl (now, not THAT kind of working girl!) but then had kids so I kinda stopped wearing it so the babies wouldn’t swallow my earring or scratch up their faces on my necklaces…but now I am finding myself getting back into it. Makes my boring clothes have a little more WOW!
Beth M says
I Love to accessorize and that necklace your wearing is 2 die for….Beautiful!
Gina Bean says
I used to work at Claire’s, so I have tons of accessories. I love them! Scarves are my favorite!
Alyssa says
I love Caroline! I follow her IG, she’s amazing! I usually accessorize with just my wedding ring and boys, but I’m trying to add more on the days I actually get dressed. You know, when I DONT wear yoga pants!! ๐
Jessica w says
I am slowly learning how to accessorize now too at 26 ๐
Allison Martin says
I love the turquoise necklace!
Kim says
I rarely accessorize – but when I do I love the look. Could definitely use more variety (and a reminder that it IS worth it!) ๐
Alisha says
I am boring. I don’t have a game plan for accessorizing. Definitely could use some ideas/help!
Kelsey Anderson says
Love your style Mandy!!
Jessie says
I’m 31 and still lazy about accessories. Maybe 32 will be my magic age to get it together??
Marilyn says
I have a couple of her necklaces and love them!
Jamie L says
I have desperately been wanting to get into the habit of accessorizing. I love both you girls. Carrie seems like such a sweet and kind soul!
PoisedinPrint.com by Reginia Cordell says
I need pops of color for my bland palettes of grays, blacks, and tans.
Elizabeth A says
I am also just realizing how important one or two great accessories are to making an outfit!
I love a fun necklace or dangling earrings for a pop!
Kaitlin says
I love accessorizing!! I ALWAYS have to wear earrings, even if I’m running out for a second. I’ve also started to fall in love with the big colorful necklaces I see everywhere! Can’t wait to get a few for spring ๐
Angela says
I need help with accessories! It still hasn’t come to me ๐
Jenn @ Squishy Cheeks & Cupcakes says
I love accessorizing!! But, as I’ve gotten older I have come to realize a little goes a long way. I love a statement necklace or some great dangly earnings, but will pick one or the other – not both. And as far as rings go, I find myself taking off large, clunky rings throughout the day anyway, so I’m more interested in finding some quality, dainty bands that I can wear on a daily basis. I love Caroline’s pieces!!! Thanks for the giveaway!
