Carly’s Cut, Vol. 8
March always feels like a turning point in Charleston. The start of spring can go one of two ways: either the weather is impossibly perfect, light and breezy with no humidity in sight, or the pollen rolls in and takes you out for a week straight. No real middle ground. Still, it’s one of my favorite times of year. It reminds me of that first real shift in New York, when everything softens and comes back to life. The blooms are brighter, people linger a little longer, and there’s a renewed sense of energy that makes the city feel full again. Hibernation is over, and I’m more than ready to rejoin the world.

The Best Jewelry Boxes + Storage
This was a big reader request! Whenever I share my little jewelry nook, I get tons of questions about what each of my jewelry boxes is. So, I wanted to get a post up with my favorite jewelry boxes, plus a bunch of other favorites. My personal collection looks like this. My ultra special green velvet box from Aerin (I bought myself this for Christmas a couple of years ago), and my beloved Ariel Gordon jewelry box (this color combo brings me a lot of happiness). On the walls are these Command hooks (lots of them!) to keep my longer beads and chains from getting tangled. I have gotten several little freebies when I’ve bought nice pieces of jewelry (that cobalt case above came from HOWL). Plus lots and lots of pretty little dishes like this gorgeous antique shell!

My Favorite Beaded Jewelry for Spring
If you ask me, there is no better way to add a little color (and texture) to your outfit than with beaded jewelry. The chunky Lizzie Fortunato necklace that I am wearing in the photo above is one of my favorites, but there are so many incredible options in stores right now. I’ve rounded up what I think are the very best, whether you are looking for something subtle or want to go full-on rainbow bright (this BaubleBar strand is an absolute gem, in that case!) This round-up is full of beautiful beads in an array of colors, but I also had to point out these gold beads: cool and unexpected!
