Well hello, friends! You may have noticed that Medicine & Manicures got a little face lift today (insert happy dance here). I thought it was time to freshen things up and I hope you enjoy the new look as much as I do! For today’s #trending I wanted to talk about one of my favorite accessories, the tortoise shell. Whether it’s summer or winter, rocking this mix of black & brown is a sure way to class up an outfit. You may have noticed that I layered on the tortoise in this post and my two staple pieces would have to be this watch (even though everyone has it) and these earrings.
Oh, and this material isn’t only found in jewelry. I spotted THE cutest clutch on Life with Emily so I had to share! If you don’t already have a stash of tortoise, these pieces would transition perfectly into fall, not that I’m wishing away summer or anything.
Here’s a fun fall look and you can find a similar necklace here!

Love this, I don't have anything tortoise myself but I always fancy it, it looks so classy and sometimes quite vintage.
