Bangs and Bracelets

First, I want to say thank you for all the wonderful support I received with Friday's Beyond The Blog post. It really warms my heart to know there are people who genuinely take an interest in House Of Jeffers. This makes me so much more excited to push myself on so many levels, and I'm uber happy to hear that the new additions are welcomed! 

But enough about that... Let's talk accessories!

One website I fancy stalking is Ettika. Filled to the brim with decked-out bracelets adorned with chain links, crystals, leather, and pretty much every spike, bead and color under the sun, I often get lost in their assortment of stacked bracelets.

Violet Vintage Ribbon Bracelet with Pyramid Studs

So when Ettika invited me to create a stack of bracelets named after House Of Jeffers, I was beyond giddy! I chose three dishy bracelets that incorporate my favorite colors (pink, black and pink), gold chains and of course, spikes. To me, it encompasses what I love in any outfit: a bright colour, some badass spikes and fem details. Check out the House Of Jeffers stack on their site, and get inspired to create one of your own!

And as you might have seen on my Instagram account, I cut my hair last week. While I get that it might not be that noticeable to ya'll, to me, I feel like 4 inches was chopped. You know that initial shock you get sometimes when you cut your hair? That was me for two days. It's hair, it'll grow back ... but it looks like I probably won't be telling my hairstylist to "cut off whatever needs to go" again.

Never, ever waste a good hair day. Like, ever.

Listen folks - I didn't just spend 45 minutes curling my hair to sit on my couch. I don't need to make a total night of it, but if I at least hit up my favorite Mexican place for a burrito and a frozen margarita on a Friday night, I'm one happy lady. Simples pleasures, people. 

Ever since my little trip to the hospital last week, I'm definitely making some changes - both mentally and physically. Until I figure out what is causing my migraines to be so severe, I'm drastically cutting out a lot of things in my diet like caffeine and one of my favorites, chocolate.

Also, I'm more determined than ever to really start pushing myself on my blog - and hopefully, branch out in terms of opportunities. Being a blogger isn't something that I would consider a hobby for myself, and I really want to be able to reach as many people as I can with my words. I also hope to work with brands that I can really contribute something to, whether it be collaborating on designs, being a part of marketing in some capacity, or my ultimate dream - being a brand ambassador. So if you're a brand, feel free to reach out to me.

Until then, I'm taking things one day at a time.
