Last Friday, Beyoncé shocked the world and quietly released a visual album with 14 new songs accompanied by 17 (!) stunningly beautiful music videos.  The videos showcased the gorgeous performer as a style chameleon, effortlessly switching from sultry to sweet, serving a Naomi catwalk strut to 'Yonce sidewalk realness with artistic to retro-inspired fashion.

Accessory Shopping: My Favorite Stores

World Market: I first visited World Market to look at the unique furniture and interesting home accessories that the store offers. I quickly learned that they had a jewelry selection that was just as eclectic! The jewelry comes from all over the world and features intricate beading, beautiful stones, and vibrant colors.

Charming Charlie: You know how people talk about love at first sight? That pretty much sums up how I feel about Charming Charlie.  If you've never visited the store, let me paint the picture. The store is wall to wall jewelry and accessories that are arranged by color.   The items are on trend and affordable with most jewelry priced under $15 and handbags priced at about $25-$40.  If I could afford it, I would stop by the store everyday after getting dressed to pick out items to complement my outfit!

What are your favorite places to shop for accessories? Let me know, I'm always looking for a new place to shop :)

JC Penney Jewelry Haul

I scored a few items from JC Penney's after Christmas sale.  I've had my eye on jewelry from the MNG by Mango, but it had been out of my price range until now.  If only the clothes would go on clearance...sigh.  Anywhere, here are the items I picked up:

Accessory Haul

I went out shopping with hopes to find an animal print scarf.  Most of the ones I found online were way too expensive so I figured I would try to find one locally.  I started off at the mall, and stopped in Body Shop/Body Central.  I don't usually go in there, but every time I do I always find some cute jewelry.  This time was no different, and all jewelry was on sale for $3.90!  I scored a few items, and then made my way to Ross where I found a cute scarf like I wanted for only $9.

Here's a close up of what I got:
