Autumn Earring Aesthetics You Need to Try Soon

When the weather begins to turn, the wind stirs, and the leaves start to fall, it’s time to bring out the best of your autumn wardrobe. No outfit is complete without accessories, and who doesn’t love a good set of statement dangles for pizzazz?

Whether you are looking for something simple or for a statement piece to add to your collection, there’s plenty of inspiration to draw from these dangles!

Keep scrolling to see a few of my absolute favorites to wear this time of year, including some designs you can find in my online shop, Salvaged by Shannon.

These ghosts and ghouls are some of my favorites that I’ve added to my shop this season. I love the simplicity of a single charm paired with glitter or metal flakes for a look that still stands out.

If you’re lookingn to snag a pair of these for yourself, head over to Salvaged by Shannon and order a pair before it’s loo late to rock them this season!

If you’re looking for something a little more down-to-Earth, these terrarium earrings are just what you need.

The vial charms could be filled with any number of small things, but I think they look best with natural-looking faux moss and some river stones.

For those of us who prefer a neautral metal look, these vintage screw-on earrings are just what you need.

Unfortunately I only found these at a thrift shop and there isn’t another pair I can link to, though there are plenty of other options out there that take inspiration from this mid-century style.

Clip-on earrings are great for people who want to wear some extra bling without the commitment of a new piercing, but twist-ons are even better in my opinion. If they’re a curved shape like these, you can experiment with where you put them on.

I already have my first holes pierced, but don’t have any plans to get more piercings in the short-term. Instead of covering up my current piercing to wear these, I’ve chosen to place them higher on my cartilige which creates the allusion of a second piercing.

Warning: these next earrings may cause you to experience FOMO or the feeling of missing out if you don’t have at least one pair for yourself. Yes, they’re that cute.

Seriously though, how adorable are these?!

If you’re wondering if they work, you’ll be happy to know that you can in fact use them to hold lightweight items.

However, it is not recommended that you attempt to hang things from the clothespin while wearing them as this could cause unintentional stretching of the ears.

Who remembers these journals? They were the very f Who remembers these journals? They were the very first product I ever made with my TUO photography on it and I still have a couple leftover 💕 I of course kept one for myself and have since filled it almost halfway full of journal entries straight from the heart

What would you use this journal for?
Alright y’all, who’s ready for my Italian herb Alright y’all, who’s ready for my Italian herb cracker recipe?! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I made these for our trip to Deep Creek as we always stop by @fireflymarketdeepcreek and they made the perfect base for all the different flavors we got 🤤

I’m in the final stages of getting this posted, so keep an eye out!
I’ve been considering an update to last year’s I’ve been considering an update to last year’s post on fall earring inspiration… these definitely need to make it on there!
There’s always something to admire in the space There’s always something to admire in the space around us. This little guy was happy buzzing around (quite loudly) while I washed my car and I couldn’t help but watch him for a while. If you’re lucky, you can catch them leaping from one flower to the next, letting their wings dance around in the wind rather than putting them to work.
In case you didn’t know, the Untamed Optimist is In case you didn’t know, the Untamed Optimist is 7 years old as of August 2023 and I couldn’t be more proud of where it’s come in all these years. I know it’s been pushed to the back burner recently as my other business has picked up, but I can’t wait to make more TUO content for you in the coming weeks ☺️ thank you for sticking with me all this time, and get ready for new posts by #theuntamedoptimist coming soon!

I’m definitely sharing my Italian herb cracker recipe with you cause it was just too damn good not to, and I’ve got a few new ideas brewing for my local readers 😉 you’ll have to stay tuned for that one though!
There’s something so special about the wildflowe There’s something so special about the wildflowers that pop up around our garden spaces. The ones that are planted by the birds and cultivated by only Mother Nature’s touch.

Some might consider them weeds, but I know they serve a purpose. Take a moment to appreciate the ‘weeds’ in your yard today.
Our Hostas are blooming and I’m feeling grateful Our Hostas are blooming and I’m feeling grateful for the long lasting blooms we get this time of year. I made a point to scatter the Hostas around the garden beds earlier this season in an effort to do two things:

Toward the end of last summer, the hostas had completely outgrown their space and weren’t living up to their potential. Dividing them filled the otherwise empty spaces in our beds whilst allowing each individual plant to grow bigger to fill it in.

While the largest section of Hostas wasn’t quite as showy as last year, our garden is already fuller and will only fill in more as the years go on. Turns out, plants and people aren’t so different if you think about it 🤔
It’s important to be present in each moment as i It’s important to be present in each moment as it comes. I try to remember this as often as I can and my garden is often the best reminder.

Each bloom changes day by day. The colors and conditions are always a sight to see and I don’t think I’ll ever not look forward to it. Nothing beats an evening stroll during harvest season.

Ask yourself, how do you ground yourself in the present? There are more opportunities than you may expect.
