It's June 30th.
What the What?
How did that happen?

As always, as the first of the month approaches, I partner up with Shay at Mix and Match Family and Mel at The Larson Lingo to Get Pin-Spired,
and we're hoping that all of you will join in the fun!







Here's my inspiration for today.
HOT PINK and DENIM (minus the white countrified belt, of course).  :)

I couldn't find the original source, but if you know know it, please leave the source in the comments and I will add the info. to the post.

Here's the side by side.

I won't lie.

I loved it.

INSPIRATION                    MY INTERPRETATION

I mean really REALLY REALLY loved it.

Simple.  Cute.

I wanted to zoom in and get an up close picture of my jewelry!  Isn't it fun!?!  All great pieces!
earrings HERE / necklace HERE / band ring HERE/
similar watch HERE / similar bracelet HERE

Here are the sources for the entire outfit in case you want to get the look for yourself!
exact j crew factory shirt HERE / pink cut-offs HERE
kate spade white and blingy watch HERE/ crystal bracelet HERE / leopard sandal HERE
ks abalone earrings c/o Jewelry Nut Auctions HERE (and also available HERE at Nordstrom)
tanner pave bar necklace c/o Gorjana and Griffin but now carried at Nordstrom HERE

Now I didn't have a bright and colorful clutch like the one in the inspiration photo, but I found one HERE that is awesome!

And if you want some more denim shirt options,you're in luck!

a) LOFT shirt HERE / b) another LOFT option HERE on serious sale!

c) hinge shirt HERE with great reviews / d) anthro shirt HERE / e) plus size version HERE

Now I want to take a bit of time to talk about the earrings and the necklace I'm wearing.
First off, the necklace.
I was gifted the necklace by Gorjana and Griffin, and I had no idea how much I would love it.  It just seemed kind of plain, but there's something about it that I just adore.  It sparkles, it's sexy, and the length is a little longer than other simple necklaces I have like this, which I am really liking!
I find myself wearing it all the time!
When I found out that Nordstrom launched a collaboration with Gorjana and Griffin, I was so excited!  I will tell you more about that in a minute......

Next, the earrings.
I was gifted the earrings by Jewelry Nut Auctions.  I've seen the abalone shell online before, but I always thought it would be too dark to show up in my dark hair.  Well, I was wrong.
And LET ME JUST SAY....they are THE ABSOLUTELY PERFECT EARRING TO PAIR WITH DENIM!  And actually, I find they "go" with just about everything!
Here's just one of the 5 STAR Reviews:

Goes with everything

I bought the earrings and the matching necklace. The color works with every color clothing including pinks, blues, aqua, green, and orange. The necklace is a bit heavy but torerable. The earrings are the small size, one and a quarter inch of shell length, which I think are an apropriate size. The large size are definately very large! I would like to purchase this same set in the color red when they make it available.

I mean really and truly, I can't say enough good things about the two pieces of jewelry above.

Earlier I told you about the Gorjana and Griffin collaboration at Nordstrom.
My favorite piece is definitely THIS necklace, but some of my other favorites follow:
a)  pave pendant necklace HERE
If you're not super in to wearing big necklaces and changing out your jewelry all the time, I can see this being a great piece to wear every single day!
b) crisscross ring HERE  /  c) frontal hoop earrings HERE
I have these and love 'em.  You've seen them before in several outfits, including THIS one.
d)  taner bar necklace HERE / e) aurora pave stud earrings HERE / f)  teagan open ring HERE

One more thing to tell you girls before I go!

One more thing to tell all of you girls before you go!

I'm not sure if you follow me on facebook or not (you can HERE), but I posted a question to all of you on Thursday night, and LOTS of you weighed in.

As you can see, I got 346 responses!  THANK YOU!
The two most requested stores were....drum roll please....
Target and Old Navy!

So, in July I'm going to go shopping at Target!
If it goes well and y'all think it's helpful and fun, then I will make
Shopping with Sheaffer: Reader's Choice a monthly segment!
If you guys enjoy the Target post, then I will do Old Navy in August!

Okay, now it's your turn to link up and show us how you were Pin-Spired this month!
