As many last minute packing preparations go, I’ve realized that I still need a few key pieces to make my outfits complete for our upcoming Europe trip. I’m trying hard to restrain myself this time around, we definitely don’t need a repeat of two years ago (65 lbs of luggage is simply unacceptable). I’ve made a few post-work trips to the mall (snagged these shoes, this jumpsuit, and this coat as last minute additions…) but still feel as though there is so much left to do (such as laundry, a Target run, and packing… all the non-essentials, you know??). Yet, something I am pretty set on is my jewelry selection.

I love how a piece of jewelry has the ability to tell a story and complete an outfit. A plain black maxi dress is suddenly made complete by simple gold pieces or a statement necklace(all depending on style and mood). I’ve always tried to streamline my jewelry pieces to items that I know I will wear often. Yet, sometimes there are those pieces, where you’re simply not sure how often they will work themselves into rotation, and there in lies the dilemma. To purchase or not to purchase?

Enter Rocksbox.  When they offered us a 3-month trial I jumped on the opportunity. The concept is simple. They send you three pieces of jewelry, you wear them for a month, then send them back. If there is an item that you constantly wore (for me, it’s been this cuff and necklace) you can purchase it at a discounted rate and send back the other pieces. And what if nothing rocked your world? Send it all back and get a new set of pieces 🙂 You can try the first month free by using code shannonxoxo1 when you sign up here!
