Friday's How To: The Art of Cartier Stacking

Hello bloggies! Instead of Friday's Five, I will now be doing a Friday How To! Today's is all about the Cartier Love ring. These are really out of my comfort zone, so bare with me!

I fell in love with them when I saw Kylie Jenner wearing them like this:

We can all learn from this, she is a great example of how to stack them. Two or three works great!

I don't know what it is I like about them, I just think they're different and fun! Here is the one that I would like to wear someday! I feel like you can dress it up, or down like Kylie is doing in the picture above. Something that feels so carefree about it, like you just throw it on and go. Throw on a white t-shirt, jeans, boots, and a scarf- you'll be good to go!

Well that was today's Friday How To! Hope you enjoyed it and took some notes! Be sure to check out my Pinterest, and email me at jackcurlsandpearls@yahoo.com if you have any questions! Thanks for stopping by!

"Organiza-what?"

Hey bloggies! Today I'm going to talk about being organized. I know! It's a concept that not a lot of people can grasp. Well, I'm just the girl to help you! With the new semester ahead of us, it's nice to have things sort of planned out. Okay, let's get crackin'!

1. The Organizer, Itself.
I prefer a cute agenda, it's more fun and it sometimes motivates you to accomplish tasks! I am right now using this gem from Lilly. I know right, so cute.

2. Then there's the actual activity of writing it down. This is where people get confused. A lot of people color code, or just write. Here's and example of what Shelby thinks on collegefashion.net!

• Get colored pens/pencils! 
• Color-code! (In reference to above bullet)

3. Actually complete the tasks that you wrote down! 

Have a good Tuesday! 

Trend Watch: Spring 2014

Hey ladies! How has y'all's Monday been? Today we will be discussing trends of 2014. Now, I normally don't follow trends, but I think that there are some things that are going to be really cute! Let's get started!

1. Pastels. Pretty lights have always been a staple for early spring and summer, but now even more!

2. Wide-leg trousers. I'm not so sure about this one, but something is grabbing me about it. I like how they look so light and airy!

3. Tea-length skirts. Now these I sure do like. There is something so bohemian about them, but you can make them look super-duper preppy as well! Maybe add some Jacks and a button down, and you've got yourself a pretty outfit!

4. Tuxedo/Athletic Striped Trousers. I think these would do a great job at accentuating your thighs, and even making them look smaller! It would help a lot, too, with lengthening your legs! 

5. SHIFT BLOUSES. This is probably one of my favorite 2014 trends. They scream Lilly, I don't know why!

6. Collarless Coats. I always have the problem with layering with a collared coat. Sometimes it looks really awkward when you place your shirt collar over your coat collar. But with these, that is no longer an issue!

Well, those are the spring trends of 2014 that I am most excited about! What are your's? Have a marvelous Monday!

SAG Awards: The Best and Worst Outfits of the Night

Hey y'all! Well, it's awards season! I love this time of year because you get so much stylespiration (style+inspiration) from so many stars! We'll let's get started with my favorites!

I think my favorite was Jennifer Garner in MAX MARA and Brian Atwood, she looked gorgeous y'all. Usually with awards, the bolder the better. But I always lean towards the more simpler looks.

                                     

My next favorite was Elisabeth Moss who wore Michael Kors. I just loved the bright red, even though I wasn't too crazy about the black belt, I thought it was perfect! 

                                       

Sarita Choudhury looked so pretty in the black Nanette Lepore, it was so simple, yet so incredibly chic! 

                                       

And now the moment that y'all have waited for: THE WORST DRESSED. 

I think the most worst dressed last night was probably Mayim Bialik. I wasn't a fan of the lavender and black lace ensemble that she had on. It was rather gothic.

                                       

Another worst dressed of the night was Stuart Brazell. I don't know, I just didn't like the floral high-low look that she was sporting. 

                                        

This is the one that I don't know about, there's something about it that I like. Betsy Brandit looked fabulous in this alice+olivia, I just loved the elegance of it. 

                                       

What were y'all's favorite looks of the night? Thanks for stopping by, have a sunny Sunday! 

Phone Cases!

So today I am discussing phone cases. For me, there is practical and then there is fun. I haven't found the in-between-case yet. That's where y'all come in. 

I really want a fun case, that also offers protection. Right now, I am typing this post with a silicone case on my iPhone 5. It's cute, navy and white striped. But I want something fun. 

I have an idea, and I need y'all's feedback- ASAP. So, do y'all have any comments on the Otterbox Commuter? I have heard that http://www.personalizedfrommetoyou.com has cute monogrammed ones! This is the one that I am thinking about getting: 

 It's fun- yet simple and protective. What more could you ask for? If y'all have had any issues with these cases, please comment below and tell me. Thanks, and have a super Sunday! 

New Year, New Me!!! (2014 Edition)

Well, this might be a tad late. But hey, better late than never! This year, I want to turn over a whole new leaf. So I have squashed all of my resolutions into one post for y'all. Let's get started! 

1. I want to become a better blogger, I know I don't have tons of readers out there. But for those of you who used to read "Jacks" back in the summer,  I'm truly sorry I left y'all hanging! I promise to at least blog once a week, if I can! 

2. I want to become more cultured. I need to be exposed to new things! So if y'all have any suggestions, please do tell. 

3. I don't want to become too materialistic. Us girls have it naturally in us, and too be honest- I'm tired of it. I have just started to realize that I am truly blessed for the things I am given and for the people I have in my life. I need to start appreciating that more. 

4. And with that said, I need to start spending more time with my family. Not everybody has the type of loving and caring family that I do. 

5. I need to give back. There are so many great causes in my community- and I bet yours! Even if it is just spending time with the less fortunate or helping at the Children's Hospital, I just want them to know that they are loved and are truly special and have someone that cares about them.

So those are my New Year's Resolutions, what are your's?
