This weather is crazy. And to say it poses a challenge to getting dressed in the morning is an understatement. I don't know about you but I still have sweaters in my closet! And it's 90+ degrees outside. I don't exactly have all my summer clothes out and ready to go. However, this is a short lived heat spike and we'll be back in our light weight sweaters by the end of the week. So it's hard to motivate switching out my wardrobe.

Even retail isn't all caught up with this weather. We're just starting to see the new summer arrivals. Most of us are relying on what we already have in our closet to get us through. With that said, you might be wondering what you should be buying now. Spring wear? Summer wear? ... in this heat, maybe just a bathing suit!?! Considering the rollercoaster of the forecast, you may not want to buy any new outfits until summer really decides to settle in. In which case, how about some accessories to brighten your transition wardrobe?

Earrings are the accessory of the moment and I've found a few that I love from J.Crew and Ann Taylor. A long or dangly earring can draw attention upwards to the face and add a little something extra to your outfit. Earrings can frame your gorgeous face so pick ones that bring out the color in your eyes or complexion. Adding a little color in your earrings can also help your complexion glow!

So it might seem like you're already rushing to get dressed and the idea of adding jewelry to an outfit requires the extra minute you don't have. But believe it or not, a statement pair (similar to those below) will match with almost anything in your wardrobe. And even if you only get to it for evenings out or special occasions, it will be that extra touch that might make the whole outfit!
