Tres Bien Ensemble: I {Heart} You

I {Heart} You

The goods:
• striped turtleneck from Forever21
• navy cords from J.Crew
• sequin heart from ban.do
• bangles from C. Wonder, Banana Republic
• nude pumps from Aldo

Statement pieces don't always have to come in the form of a big necklace or collection of bangles, adding a little sparkle to your hair can elevate a look instantly. It wasn't until I discovered ban.do, that I really started noticing hair accessories. Their line of sequin barrettes, gilded headbands and other amazing adornments add a peppy pop to any hairdo, giving my basic navy and white ensemble a whimsical twist. I started small with their mini heart ... maybe next I'll "upgrade" to one of their adorable giant bows.

Très Bien Ensemble (tray bee-en on-som) is French for "put together very well". I see this as a multi-faceted term, relating to decorating my surroundings, pulling together a pretty party, and of course, my daily duds. I will occasionally feature items in round ups or my own outfits that may produce a small commission if purchased through my blog. I only feature brands or items that I honestly use, love, or want. The same goes for accepting products, I will always stay true to my style and turn away items that I wouldn't normally purchase. I can't very well go against my design aesthetic, that would not be très bien.
