Street Style NYFW 2013

What to wear with lapis

1. For a cool, unexpected contrast, accessorize with a lime-green piece like the Calypso necklace, made from bombona seeds.





2. Irma Guzman Eco Jewelry's Gaia wrap bracelet in berry adds instant polish.




 
3. The Flavia earrings in jade are a soft accent against a bluish hue.

  1. Got the bag as a gift at cwmalls.com and everyone will love it..leather hobo bags have the perfect size for what you need without having too much extra room, with a nice pair of jeans and heels, the perfect accessory to have in the closet.
