As the final days of summer approach, we are soaking up every last sunset and sucking up every last bit of inspiration. With the Olympics in full swing we are all over a roman gladiator theme and artisan, craft inspired accessories. If you go for a subtle take, you can pile it on but if your accents take a more bold approach (like knee-high gladiator sandals…) one piece is likely enough before you’ll start to look like a Russell Crowe co-star. We would also recommend pairing stronger statements with soft feminine clothing like soft, flowy fabrics or skirts and dresses.
