Trend Forecast: Corset Tops

Published on by KaylaLeave a comment

I feel like I had been hunting for secondhand corset tops forever and finally found this one while shopping at Uptown Frisco a few weeks ago! I absolutely love the brown for fall and it pairs perfectly with my leopard skirt. Outfit made in thrifted heaven!

Even though the skirt has white in it as well, I chose to accessorize with black to give it more of a fall look. I feel like the gold accents on my accessories really pull everything together, especially my belt and shoes.

I’m going to have to get creative if I want to keep wearing this outfit once it gets cold- it’s not exactly winter weather-friendly! Luckily, if you’re just now hopping on the corset train you can keep wearing it through to spring with some creative layering. My next challenge for myself is to style the corset with a turtleneck underneath. I’m not going to let some cold weather cramp my style!

SHOP THE LOOK:

Sunglasses: Round Plastic Metal Combo Sunglasses – Target
Earrings: Charlotte Earrings – 512 Jewelry
Top: Brown Corset Top (similar)
Belt: Black Belt with Rectangle Buckle (similar)
Skirt: Cheetah Midi Skirt (similar)
Shoes: Amulet Black – Steve Madden

If you own a corset top (or two, or three) where did you get them from? I’m looking to expand my collection to include a black one or white one and I don’t know the best place to shop. Any recommendations are welcomed and appreciated!

Repurposed Designer Pieces from 512 Jewelry

Published on by Kayla5 Comments

One of my favorite movements right now is repurposed designer jewelry. Essentially, jewelry designers take buttons, charms, or other hardware from vintage designer pieces and repurpose them to create a whole new look. This is great because it means that pre-loved pieces can have a new life as a different accessory, minimizing waste. It’s also great because repurposed designer pieces are often a fraction of the cost of the originals!

I found 512 Jewelry through social media and immediately fell in love. I had been looking to add some repurposed Chanel pieces to my closet, and all of the designs on their site were so gorgeous. I patiently waited for a restock on some of my favorite pieces, and managed to snag all of them the same day! Score!

I bought a pair of gold hoops, a lock necklace (which I had been on the hunt for lately anyways, with or without the Chanel logo), and a rhinestone-studded Chanel charm made into a necklace. These pieces instantly spice up any outfit, and I’m looking forward to wearing them all season long!

My Tips for shopping 512 Jewelry

1. Act fast

If you’re on the 512 Jewelry website and you see something you like, buy it right then. Their super popular pieces can sell out in minutes, so don’t waste time if you know you want that piece. Otherwise, you’ll be stuck waiting and hoping for a restock on that particular item.

2. Missed out? Follow along on social

Did you miss a restock? Follow along on social to see when the next one will be. 512 Jewelry is good at announcing restock dates in advance, so if you know you’re looking to add a special out-of-stock item to your collection, keep your eyes peeled for any update announcements.

3. Check back often

If it’s a small restock, it’s possible they won’t announce it on social. Check back often to see if what you want appears in-stock again. And again, if you see it- buy it!

4. Orders $100+ qualify for free shipping!

Orders over $100 (typically 2 or more pieces) qualify for free shipping! Save your $$$ and buy in bulk, if you have your eye on more than one piece, of course. Happy shopping!
