spotlight on: artisan impact

etsy is one of my favorite places to browse jewelry because you always find something different. i came across artisan impact last year and have followed all of their new pieces ever since. they make earrings, necklaces, and bracelets as well, but their rings are my favorite.

new hair, new you

i wanted to wear a blonde wig like kate moss' for halloween but sadly i never found one. i love how it is so easy to change your entire look with a little bit of fake hair.
