HOL INSIDER STYLE TIPS: 

"I love pairing a bold necklace with a casual tee, for a high-low vibe. Adding a contrasting lip color gives the look a fresh, unexpected feel."

"Color-blocking is my remedy for rainy days or sleep deprivation. It's an instant fix!"

"Another go-to is layering: I like to either go over the top with several chunky pieces, or instead wear a few delicate necklaces messily intertwined."
