FASHION ESSENTIALS + CRA GIVEAWAY

It’s time to break out your favorite bright statement shorts! I am obsessed with my new J.crew Factory blue and white striped shorts. They are a classy edition to my spring/summer wardrobe and pair nicely with a bold lipstick, something we all look for in our clothing choices I’m sure…

I tucked in a sheer Nordstrom BP white top into my shorts and added a Rocksbox statement necklace. I am obsessed with this necklace because it has two of my favorite things, tassels and crystals! If you are interested in getting a month free use the code “xocatiebethxoxo”. I recommend you trying this necklace! It is delicate but still creates a statement.

For accessories, I grabbed my Marley Lilly monogrammed cross-body bag. Again, I stayed with the tassel trend, but I love how it adds a little dimension to this outfit! With this sassy hair style, I decided to show off some of my favorite Urban Outfitters sunglasses. I’m wearing a MAC lipstick and pearl studs. For my shoes I chose brown Sam Edleman sandals. If you don’t have any of these sandals, I definitely recommend them! I have this neutral brown shade as well as a cork pattern. They are adorable and very comfortable.

If you’re like me, you get cold EVERYWHERE! That’s why I decided to style my Charles River Apparel cardigan with this look. For example, today’s weather was freezing in the morning and hot in the evening. It saved my life in the morning and was also nice in the evening for when I stepped inside. The dark charcoal color makes it easy to pair with any color combination. To pair this with more of a causal trendy look, trying wearing high-waisted black cut off shorts and a detailed top,or throw on your favorite casual black dress and add the cardigan! I teamed up with CRA and because of that, I’m hosting a giveaway so you have a chance to win a $100 gift card! To enter, find the original picture on my Instagram and follow the rules listed below.
