Weekly Favorites: Fab 5

1. Faux Cartier LOVE bracelet- $50

Yesterday, when I was out doing a little damage to my credit card (My name is Jamie Grace, and I am a shopaholic) I stumbled upon this beauty....or so I thought. 

One of the most coveted pieces of jewelry in any fashionistas collection, the Cartier LOVE bracelet, is a item that I've been saving up for what seems like forever. While having this amazing piece of fashion would pull any 'arm-candy' together perfectly, the price tag deters  many (starting at $6,300)! So when I found this at my local Monkees I was in awe, but not of its beauty but the price tag...wait for it...$50!!! It was a dupe/knockoff/replica/fake/faux or what-have-you but you would have no idea. Of course I picked it up because the 6,250 difference was too much to let it slip out of my hands. They also had faux LOVE rings for $35. Definitely check your local Monkee's for these dupes (currently no online) 

2. Lululemon: All Tied Up Tank- $52

Tennis, running, yoga, ect. this top is not only super cute but also super practical for day-to-day use (SUPER COMFY) but also for working out. The open back would look absolutely adorable with a lace bralette with cute strap designs in the back (Free People is my fav!) But also when you tie it up in the back it is perfect for a match or hot yoga. Definitely will be wearing this tennis season on the courts.

3. Kate Spade New York: Beradette 58mm gradient sunglasses- $170

I recently went to the eye-doctor for the first time in YEARS and I found out that I was nearsighted so I would need glasses for driving and sitting in the back of a lecture hall, but my eyesight wasn't bad enough to need contacts so he suggested getting sunglasses.  I picked these beauties up and they put my prescription in the lens and I am absolutely in love with them. Kate Spade has yet again outdone themselves with these Hermes look-a-likes.

4. Tory Burch: Emmy Flat Thong Sandals- $195

I bought these beauties from Nordstrom Rack in the spring and have found myself wearing them so often this summer; super comfortable and chic. Sadly this style is out of stock but you can find some similar ones currently for sale at Nordstrom or Saks but if you are as in love with them as I am, go check your local Nordstrom Rack or Ebay! 

5. Louis Vuitton: Neverfull MM Damier Azur : $1,100

While at Charlottes at North Hills I fell in love with this bag. While I had been eyeing it for over a year, I was looking at the Classic Monogram style of the bag. The vintage look is so beautiful in my opinion, with the worn in leather handles this bag is perfect for the summer. 

Love Always,

"I don't sweat...I sparkle"

While i would love to be able to claim this quote as a fact....it most defiantly is not true. In lieu of my ability to be an Edward Cullen vampire that sparkles in the sun, I enjoy working out or just lounging around in Lululemon athletic wear, which makes me feel almost as amazing!

I've tried every brand under the sun: from Nike, Under Armor, Adidas, Athleta, ect..... I have come to hold "Lulu" as the Queen B of sports wear. From my constant errands, to hot yoga and tennis, lulu has everything you might need. 

Here are some of the lulu pieces I wore this past week for tennis....

Swiftly Tech Racerback Tank $48
Hit Your Stride Skirt- $64

- This tank top is made of the highest quality fabric that keeps sweat off of you! I bought mine in a size up because I like my tennis tops to be loose, but if you're thinking of buying this top for yoga, I'd defiantly go for your true size.
- Every Lulu skirt I own is so comfortable. They run true to size and are made of amazing materials       that keep you feeling clean and dry...even when you're playing tennis outside 8 hours a day

105 F Singlet $52
Tracker Short $54
Free To Be *Wild Sport Bra $48

- My ABSOLUTE favorite Lulu item is the 105 F Singlet with the scalloped edges, so loose and comfortable. Plus has a fairly open back so looks really cute with strappy sports bras like the Free to be *Wild one from Lulu.
- These shorts are 1. so comfortable and 2. fashionable cute chic for athletic wear
- I own this sports bra in 3 different colors and it is by far my favorite of the Lulu ones I own, the light weight and breathability of the bra along with the fun straps in the back make it my favorite

No Limits Tank
Pace Setter Skirt

- So both of these styles (last summer/fall) are not online at the moment: but I'm sure you can find them on Ebay. A lulu top that is similar (with regards to having a built in bra with little padding) would be this.
- A lulu doupe for this skirt would be a newer style called the Pace Rival Skirt ii-- doesn't have the 3 layers of ruffles but it does have some cute pleats.

***My friend Emery in the picture also happens to be sporting a Lululemon (fellow Lulu enthusiast) Swiftly Tech Racerback Tank in grey and another one of my favorite shorts the Speed Short in a beautiful electric coral.

Love Always,
