Bright Blue Dress + "Voodoo" Accessories

 
bright blue dress - thrifted
black suede booties - DSW (one of my birthday purchases)
tribal clutch - Target
beaded necklaces, ribcage necklace - Target
Mexican Sugar Skull earrings - DIY
blue bungee cord bracelet - DIY



October is a great month to check out your local Target, Walmart, Kmart etc. for funky accessories.  I bought my ribcage necklace and skull earrings at Target (they had all kinds of spooky jewelry in their Halloween section).  The earrings originally were silver, but I spray-painted them white and decorated with acrylic paint to resemble Mexican sugar skulls.
My kids are on their Fall Break from school, so I will probably not be posting this week much...



here is a cheesy shot of my new highlights ;)

    I would wear that necklace all year long (and that dress-LOVE that color, especially on you and with the bright accessories)! Also, your boots are super cute and look pretty comfortable too. Don't you love DSW? Even though there isn't one where I live, I've found so many great shoes on their website.

    Great dress! I always love blue on brunettes - looks amazing!
    I really need to try and do a pair of scull earings too - I've been fascinated by Mexican sugar sculls for quite a while.
