This year I have two extra events to attend than I normally do so I’ve been trying to plan ahead in terms of outfits I’d like to wear. Two family Christmas parties, a brunch meetup, and a business dinner. Another issue is that New York is awfully cold this time of year. My inspiration began …
Just for Equestrians!
My love for horses and horseback riding has led me to three websites of interest I’d love to share. Silver Pony Designs (jewelry), The Equestrian Corner (gear), Back in the Saddle (gear), and HorseLoverz (gear). I received two lovely pairs of silver earrings and a gorgeous silver necklace by Silver Pony Designs from my mother-in-law …
London Accessorize Haul
One night after a nice dinner at The Platform Bar & Restaurant in London (which I highly recommend), my husband and I walked across to admire the beautiful view at the promenade. Unexpected to me, sandwiched in-between was a large shopping arcade. I peeked into the store’s windows wishing the shops were still open (Boots, …
Rachel Roy’s Koala Bear Ring
I’m still forming an opinion on Rachel Roy (not too familiar with her brand yet). Her Koala Bear Ring has definitely given me a great first impression. Koalas are dear to my heart; they are furry little lovable creatures. I’ve never seen such a cute statement piece before; rarely has a koala bear appeared in …
The Amias Project: The Barabaig Tribe of East Africa
I found out about the Amias Project and the Barabaig tribe about two years ago as a result of a Google search for something relatively unrelated. Below is an excerpt from the Amias Project website about the organization, their mission, and the Barabaig tribe: “For centuries, the nomadic Barabaig tribe of East Africa has roamed …
Jacquie Aiche Rings for a Layered Look
I love her Diamonds & Gold Collection for a layered look with mid-sized floral or pyramid rings. Her twisted waif rings look especially great for this purpose (third pic). *Photocredit: Jacquie Aiche
A Touch of Gothic
King Baby Studio is a little gothic to me. Their aesthetic may not be for everyone but I do like it a lot… So I have my Anthro side and my gothic side (classical Gemini complex). I can’t say I have the pleasure of owning anything from KBS but maybe someday? I also think their …
More From BoChic
Here are some more gorgeous BoChic. Mixed media jewelry at its best *sigh* *Photocredit: Gilt
Miriam Salat
Another great mixed media combo. Sort of strange but the black resin reminds me of vintage mourning or remembrance jewelry? Featured below is also a side-to-side comparison of the two. *Photocredit: Gilt & Rubylane.com
Isharya Accessories
Really terrific mixed media. These wood and metal accessories make a nice combo. They are more of “casual dress” items for me but I do suppose one can dress them up by pairing them with a solid black dress. There’s also a pretty collection of turquoise jewelry by Isharya. I’m very particular about turquoise jewelry …
