Chelsea Hall Girl

When I was a child, I used to pretend I had to wear glasses. Poking the tinted lenses out of sunglasses, I'd put them on and imagine I had an alter ego. Hey, if Clark Kent could do it, so could I.

As an adult, I still love the idea of wearing glasses, even though I'm fortunate to have good vision. Glasses are just as much an accessory as jewelry, and for me, they let me have fun with my look.

Lucky for me, Rivet & Sway asked if I would show off my Chelsea Hall style inspired by their new Chelsea Hall Collection. Giving a nod to the 70s vibe of androgynous style and the fearless women who defined this decade, a #ChelseaHallGirl is all about being daring, edgy and breaking the rules when it comes to style.

Thanks to Rivet & Sway's try at home program, they whisked 5 frames, a combination of optical and sunglass styles, to me to test drive for 5 days. The frames come equipped with clear lenses - perfect for accessorizing and experimenting - but you can purchase prescription and non-prescription frames. 

I immediately loved this purple frame called Pantsuit. Its interior is lined with a lighter purple. Sold!

 I could see myself rocking these on a daily basis because the frame fits in well paired next to my bangs, and the I love how they have a stylishly-smart feel. Plus, I needed a sunnie, and the oversized round-frame Superfly in True Blood was perfect for a bright and sunny Sunday.

Sealed With A Kiss

 

Given my penchant for pink lipstick, there was no doubt in my mind I needed this sparkly sequin lips sweatshirt from Forever 21. I first saw it in November, but it was sold out. I gave up that it would hit the store again...but right before Christmas, it popped up again. Besides for it being doused in sequins, I like the fact that while it's a sweatshirt, it can go casual for dressy. A shirt this sparkly deserved to be paired with other bold, bright and ridiculously pink accessories. 

By the way, it was so stupidly, obnoxiously cold when I took these photos. Well, it's been this way in New Jersey for two weeks. We hit 9 degrees the other day... so yeah, I'd say that puts a damper on taking photos outside.

It would appear that I'm on some type of a shopping roll, since I also scored this purple satchel from Poshmark! This was another one of those blink and you missed it styles that I held out hope on finding.  Reunited... and it feels so good.
