Date Night with Kendra Scott

if there’s one thing i feel like i can never have enough of, it’s jewelry. i rarely leave the house without something, whether it’s simple studs and my favorite delicate necklace, or something a bit fancier like these statement earrings. especially on weekends where minimal makeup and ponytails are standard, i like to feel a bit more put together by adding some jewels to the mix. 

i’ve always been an admirer of Kendra Scott jewelry, but that admiration was taken to a whole new level when i visited the brand new store in Chicago. bright lights, all white cabinetry, mirrors all around, and endless gorgeous jewelry placed throughout the store. basically, it’s every jewelry-lovers dream. i was particularly struck by the collection of white howlite jewelry, like this necklace and these studs. 

when it came to picking a date night outfit last weekend, i planned the clothes around the accessories. and that’s when you know the jewelry is good. a simple lace top, my favorite maxi dress (repurposed to be a skirt!), embellished sandals, and a simple clutch were the perfect match for these ear cuffs, my favorite double ring, and this bangle set.
