I just have to say how in LOVE with PPP's new line I am. Her 'Grounded' line is so beautiful, so simple and so comfortable. I love the use of solid colors which is something very different for her. And the velvet pieces are allllll so swoon worthy. As much as I wanted to get a velvet piece, I decided on a knit top since we are the middle of summer here. This will be something I can transition easily into my fall wardrobe. She is also coming out with some super cute new styles right now for the rest of her line. And it's all got my heart beating fast.

I really enjoyed all the colors in this outfit. Earthy tones and jewel tones are my favorite, and when they are mixed, its just heaven to my eyes. I'm a big color girl. I love the muted, dusty or earthy tones of most colors... Or if its a rich color, it can't be too bright... I make exceptions of course... but yep, I'm kind of a color snob. I almost wasn't sure how much I would love these bells b/c I'm not a red fan... but it mixes in with all the other colors so well, I'm very much in love. (and they feel really good on too...)

Ive also been enjoying pairing unexpected jewelry together. These 3 necklaces might not seem like they go together, and to many, they probably don't... but I love them paired next to each other. It's fun to experiment with your wardrobe... and sometimes even when you think something might not work, try it on anyway... you might surprise yourself!

I love that almost everything I am wearing has been handmade, and most of them by artisans I have become good friends with. Makes my heart swell up.
