Unique Style Inspired by Your Favorite TV Shows
One major thing about my personality is that I like to be different! I have been this way for as far back as I can remember. It seems that as soon as something becomes really popular, I unintentionally lose interest! That being said, I constantly have my eyes peeled for unique pieces to add to my wardrobe. I’m inspired by a lot of different outlets but my biggest source of inspiration is through my favorite television shows.
There are so many scripted shows that have amazing costume designers! Gossip Girl and Revenge are two of my past favorites but out of all of the current shows, my favorite- by far!- is Pretty Little Liars. The fashion on that show is really applause-worthy! The costume designer, Mandi Line, is incredibly detail-oriented and she has this amazing balance between being true to each character and taking risks when it comes to their style.
At the end of the fourth season of Pretty Little Liars, one of the characters- Spencer Hastings- received a gift from her boyfriend. It was a gold Scrabble letter initial necklace! Spencer is a very smart overachiever, who often plays the Scrabble game with her boyfriend so the gift was really fitting.
I loved the necklace and as someone that has always enjoyed writing and vocabulary, I thought it would be fitting for me too! Macy’s sells a pretty 14k gold Scrabble letter necklace but it was too expensive for me. So of course, I took to Etsy and managed to find a shop that sells Scrabble letter pendants. I love getting jewelry on Etsy because everything is so unique! I always feel like I’m getting something one-of-a-kind and I love that.
There were a few versions of the Scrabble letter necklace to choose from on Etsy, but I chose this one because it’s an authentic wooden Scrabble letter in a silver frame. I liked that it was an authentic game piece and the frame made it a little less ‘raw’ and more like how you expect jewelry to look.

Such a cute feminine look! Love the necklace. Pretty Little Liars is always great for outfit inspiration. Lately I've been rewatching Gossip Girl and it's a pretty good source for that too.
