H. Stern: Alice in Wonderland Rings …
Nov 22nd
Alice in Wonderland is totally one of my favorite movies of all time! While I might have done a post about Alice in Wonderland jewelry already, this is different! H. Stern is one of the few designers out there that understands the whimsical nature of Alice, understands how beautiful and visual the movie truly is. That is what these rings are all about. They are visually stunning and by far, some of the most beautiful pieces that I have ever seen!
Take these two rings for example — I can just see Alice in Wonderland written all over them! I love the green double-ring for it’s whimsical nature. The mushroom ring would make a fantastic statement ring and can go with any outfit at all!
The Jabberwoky is truly one of my favorite characters and the poem that was incorporated into Tim Burton’s movie? Classic! This ring is awesome. I absolutely dub H. Sterns incredible for capturing the heart and soul of the Jabberwoky in this awesome ring!

Delicate & Dainty Rings …
Nov 16th
When it comes to rings, one of my favorite types of rings are dainty and delicate rings. Whether you are looking to make a small statement or you are looking to just add a little sparkle to your outfit — dainty rings are perfect! These rings are typically cheap, are subtle and are very flirty. They are for the girl that doesn’t like to wear a ton of jewelry and likes to have the no-fuss ease of wearing something simple. That girl popped into your mind right? Well, if you are looking for gifts this Christmas, dainty and delicate rings make ideal gifts!

Victorian Gems & Jewels …
Nov 15th
I have always found the Victorian era filled with beautiful gems, jewels, necklaces and bracelets. I seriously love every single piece of jewelry from the Victorian age, but did you know that there are a few pieces that you can incorporate into your every day life? Just because we live in a new age, doesn’t mean we can’t take advantage to some of the older gems and jewels. Personally, I love adding in a sparkle or shimmer of something a little older to outfits, it really pulls together all of my outfits and makes them unique and different.
Take this piece for example — wouldn’t that look beautiful paired with a tank top and some jeans? It’ll make your outfit look a little more classy and elegant. Even adding in something as simple as some pearls all the way to some polished up gold and silver gems can really change your entire appearance.
Give it a try ladies and let me know what you think about incorporating some Victorian gems into your everyday wear!
Fun & Fabulous Pink Diamonds …
Nov 14th
Sex and the City is by far one of my favorite shows — and the movies are even better! While you are probably wondering what Sex and the City has to do with pink diamonds, but pink diamonds always makes me think of the super stylish and fashionable show. Personally, I think that pink diamonds are so fashion forward and so fun! They can be flirty, fun and super cute or they can be romantic too. I’ve seen so many different pink diamond engagement rings that look beautiful and I’ve seen them in so many different fun and flirty pieces. They are by far one of the most versatile gems in the world.
What do you ladies think? Would you ever buy a pink diamond? Do you think that they are a little cliche or are they trendy and awesome? Share your thoughts with me!
Yellow Diamonds: The Scoop …
Nov 4th
Yellow diamonds are something that I never really thought about until the subject came up in the office. One of the girls was talking about how beautiful yellow diamonds are and how she’d love one for her engagement ring. Yellow diamonds to me, look a little odd. They range from bright yellow like the above diamond all the way to pastel yellow, which seems to be a little too light for me. I’m a huge fan of black diamonds, but that’s for another post!
While I might not be a huge fan of yellow diamonds, the celebrities go crazy for them! Jo-Lo is one of those celebrities that absolutely loves her yellow diamonds — I think that it looks great with her skin tone though. What do you ladies think?
What would you think if you got a yellow diamond engagement ring? Do you think that you’d say yes?M Sound off on your opinions on yellow diamonds! I’d love to know your thoughts!
Sophisticated Antique Wrist Watches …
Nov 3rd
I love a good designer watch. Seriously ladies, I’m not dissin’ on the designers, however, the antique watches from back in the day? They were beautiful. Not only did they have their own style, but they were truly a work of art! Even if the watch interface doesn’t work, you can actually wear the watch as a bracelet and get away with it!
My grandmother was the queen of antique watches! She had so many, I have a hard time counting them. One thing that I noticed about these watches is how delicate they are. They take forever to make, are truly a breathtaking piece and can pull any outfit at all together.
So ladies, the next time you’re looking for the neck Gucci, why not take a peek into your grandmother’s jewelry box! You might be surprised at what you find!
Ideal Stylish & Cute Pinky Rings …
Nov 2nd
Pinky rings are something that we often overlook. Ladies, our pinkies need some love too! Pinky rings are actually the newest addition to the jewelry family and I think that we should embrace them! Whether you are looking for diamond encrusted pinky rings or you are looking for something simple and sweet, it’s a great way to show off your gems and jewels.
For me, I always pick something with a little sparkle. I want my pinkies to gleam and glitter. One of my favorite pinky rings that I wear all of the time actually had a diamond knot in it. You could also add in a ribbon, maybe a bow – really dress your pinky up!
What do you think of this style? Do you guys think that it is just a fad that will eventually go away? Come on, share your ideas!
Art Deco Bracelet Pieces …
Nov 1st
Bracelets are seriously something that I love. I think that they are chic, fun and can totally pull together an entire outfit! The style of the bracelet is important too ladies. Did you know that art deco is back as a trend? Well ladies, it’s time to tug out those art deco bracelets that you’ve been dying to try on!
Some of you might be saying – what is art deco? Well, it’s actually a style that started in Paris (we all know that I love Paris right?), but this type of style is actually influenced by all areas of design. Whether it is interior design, industrial design, painting, graphics, film or even architecture. I actually love art deco. I think that it’s totally unique and different!
What do you ladies think? Do you think that art deco is a little too out there for you sometimes? Share your thoughts!!

I’m still trying to decide on a costume!
Project Accessory, the Low-Down!
Oct 28th
First, second, this season of Project Runway — I absolutely loved it. I thought that it was the best show in the world. Nowadays? I haven’t kept with the times, but this new spin-off show? I’m not sure. I watched the first episode that premiered earlier today, but I wasn’t as impressed as I thought that I would be. The accessory challenge was to find trash and to make it into accessories — but they weren’t up to par. I miss my Tim Gunn, my Heidi Klum and my Michael Kors. What do you guys think though? Do you like it? What was your thoughts on the pilot? Share your opinion!
Versace at H&M — Beautiful Jewels!
Oct 27th
Versace is definitely a household name if you are a fashionista like me. I love everything that has to do with the brand — including their jewelry! Did you know that the Versace collection is now available at H&M? I didn’t, until I saw this ring at my local H&M. Personally, I love it — I think that it’s chic, totally stylish and absolutely up-to-date. It fits right into my jewelry collection and is totally one of my regular wear pieces of jewelry! What do you ladies think? Are you gonna run out and buy up some Versace?
Trendy & Vogueish Turquoise Pieces …
Oct 26th
Turquoise is one stone that I swear, can make any outfit seem so chic and become so hippyish and beautiful. I love the free nature of the turquoise stones, the way that they can be weaved into anything from kick butt bracelets all the way to necklaces that are runway quality. The few turquoise pieces that I actually own are something that I can throw on with a pair of jeans and a shirt or even with my little black dress. It’s a great highlight to an outfit that is completely solid or even with a pattern that compliments them. What do you ladies think? What turquoise pieces do you have that are stylish and fab? Share!!
Juicy Couture Gems & Jewels …
Oct 25th
When it comes to designers and fashion — for sure, my favorite fashion brand is Juicy Couture! They are so rebel, definitely stylish and totally fabulous! Have you ladies seen the jewelry though? I have to say that JC’s jewelry is some of the best I’ve seen. It’s still got that girlish quality that is all rebel and punk rock. It’s the ideal jewelry for any girl that is looking to stand out and looking for a way to spice up their outfit. Take this little piece above — it’s got a bit of a rebellious flare to it and still is stylish and awesome looking. What are some of your favorite Juicy Couture pieces?
Posh & Fab Collar Necklaces …
Oct 24th
Necklaces are totally my thing. I wear a different one every single day and lately, I’ve become obsessed over collar necklaces! Collar necklaces are not exactly chokers, they go up higher typically and can actually be worn as a collar or even under any collared shirts you might be wearing. The one above is definitely my top choice. I love that it’s lace, I love the details and the little beads. It looks like a collar that you can wear with any and everything and for any occasion!
Fashion Forward Metal Jewelry Pieces …
Oct 21st
When it comes to metal jewelry, I have to say that my favorite metal (as you can probably tell from my silver metal post), but that doesn’t mean that other metals don’t appeal to me. Personally, I think that metal jewelry pieces without any gemstones are perfect. Take these things for example — these are just one way that metal can look fantastic and truly pull an entire outfit together. These silver pieces really set off a rocker-chick look and can really make or break an outfit!
Bows, Bows & More Bows …
Oct 20th
While ribbons might be an awesome trend, another one of my favorite jewelry trends is actually the bow trend! Bows in jewelry are so cute, super chic and totally appropriate in so many different occasions! Take this little polka-dotted ring for example. This would be perfect for the office or even for a night out with the girls. It’s a cocktail ring, it’s chic and it’s so stylish! Don’t think that you have to just make bows out of ribbon though, there are tons of different silver, platinum and even bronze bows for you to choose from, you just gotta look for ‘em!
Fun With Ribbon Jewelry …
Oct 19th
When it comes to jewelry, there are tons of different types out there. Not all jewelry has to come in the form of metalwork though, did you know that? One of the biggest and best trends out there is actually ribbons. Ribbon jewelry has been around forever and it’s super simple to create. All you need is some cool looking ribbon, some handy bow tying techniques and you can have a unique and different type of bracelet or choker in just a matter of minutes!
Stylish & Sleek Gem Hair Accessories …
Oct 18th
While I don’t have long hair, I dream of the days (when my hair grows) that I can wear something like this.

It’s got a a little personality to it, a little flare and it absolutely fits with any outfit at all! Whether it is jeans and a tee shirt or you are looking to dress up date night, this little hair accessory is ideal for any occasion at all!
Fashionable Jeweled Up Heels …
Oct 17th
I am so one of those girls that likes to have all of her heels jeweled and gemed up just right. The more bling the better! One thing that I have noticed on the runway lately is completely and totally blinged out heels. I’m talking — gemstones, rubies, diamonds and even sapphires all attached right to the stilettos! I think that is genius and if I could afford it — I’d totally buy a diamond heel! What do you ladies think of the blinged out heels?
3 Exquisite Silver Jewelry Pieces …
Oct 14th
By far, one of my favorite metals is silver. I just love the quality, love that it goes with any color and it truly does make some pieces really stand out. I actually have three different pieces that we’re going to take a look at and I promise, you’ll love them! The first one is above, it’s Chanel (my fav!) and I have to say, I love it. It’s a charm bracelet that is a little upscale and high class.
While I love all designers — I also love the vintage feel of this piece. I like that it has two different charms, that the bow has a little antiquing on it — it’s chic and stylish at the same time! I’d totally wear this piece every day if I owned it.
I think that I totally have a thing for bows. This vintage little silver bow is beautiful! I love the sparkles, the gemstones, the beauty of the entire piece! This one is definitely my favorite and I think that if I owned it, it’d be around my neck all the time!
The Choker Fashion — Love or Hate?
Oct 13th
Chokers are something that I think are so fashionable and that can really taken an outfit to the next level. With all of the different necklaces out there, all of the different trends out there, a simple fabric choker could really transform your outfit to something super fashionable! Take a look at the above choker — it’s a simple bit of lace, some flowers made out of fabric and a bit of fur. Add on some little dangly bits and you got a sophisticated yet fashion-forward look!
Gems and Jewels to Suit Any Occasion …
Oct 12th
I have a ton of jewelry; let’s get that right out in the open. Because I have so much jewelry, it’s really hard for me to pick out the right gemstones and jewels that go with the right occasion. Well ladies, because of my mishaps, you now have an expert! There are so many different gems and jewels out there, it can be a really daunting task to figure out what goes with where and which outfit. Rest your worries, I got your back.
If you are really looking to make a splash, rubies are definitely the answer! Rubies (even if you get a fake rock, as long as it looks somewhat real) are incredible for a night out with friends, a night out with the girls or even a date night. The red color screams for attention and the right piece can be breathtaking all the time!
The next thing that we are going to talk about is pearls. Did you see my last post about pearls? They are making their way back and I love them. They are very old Hollywood and look amazing on any girl. They are perfect for the office, date night or even a night with your parents.
These are just two examples of how jewelry can dress up and make an impact on your outfit. What examples do you ladies have? Share ‘em!
The Best of Bronze Jewelry …
Oct 11th
Bronze isn’t a metal that I typically think about whenever I think about jewelry. When I was looking up pieces for this particular blog post though, I occurred to me that bronze is actually beautiful. It’s very vintage, has a very regal and older look. I personally love the piece above and the rings below — they blew me away when I saw them. While I don’t own anything that bronze right now, I think my next big jewelry purchase is going to be mostly bronze. It’s such a versatile metal, you really can make anything look chic and fashionable that you mix with bronze.
It’s not so much about what the metal holds, but the metal itself. Bronze has such a unique and different feel to it, such an awesome finish and if made right — it can look pretty beautiful. What do you ladies think?
Sleek & Gorgeous Long Earrings …
Oct 10th
Long earrings are something that will always be in style. They are something that are constantly changing and everyone in the world wears them at some point in their life. Celebrities are constantly trying to top each other with who has the bigger earrings — and you know Jersey, they love them dangling things! I think that long earrings are totally fashion-forward and chic — no matter what they have on them! This pair right here is so beautiful and innocent at the same time. You really can switch it up and make the look your own when you’re choosing the right long earrings for your look!
What do you ladies think? How do you wear your long earrings?
What is the Fashionable Filigree?
Oct 7th
When it comes to the metalwork that the jeweler actually puts into each and every jewelry piece — I was clueless! While there are some terms that I know, Filigree was not one of them. This is actually a delicate metalwork that jewelers do on everything from nails all the way up to earrings and necklaces. Personally, I think that filigree jewelry is breathtakingly beautiful. Not only is there a light and airy feel to it, but it’s so elegant and so precise. What do you guys think? Love or hate?
Fashion Trend Alert: Statement Jewelry is Hot this Fall!
Oct 6th
Keeping up with all of the different fashion trends, jewelry trends, food trends — it can be hard to pick out what to wear and eat this season! Well ladies, that’s what I am here for! I am your expert guide to everything good this fall. Autumn is definitely the time to tuck away the delicate and move onto the big and bold! Statement necklaces, rings and even bracelets are all making their appearances on the runway and should be in your accessories drawer as well! I love huge beads, big necklaces and just making a statement with my jewelry.
One tip to remember, whenever you’re wearing a huge statement piece — keep the rest of your outfit kind of tame. You want the attention drawn to your necklace and don’t want to overdo it! What do you ladies think of this necklace? Personally, I love it! It’d look great with any and everything!
Cuff Bracelets, Fashion or Foe?
Oct 5th
Cuffs are something that have become pretty recent and they are constantly gracing the runway nowadays. For fall, there cuffs of every color and style — for me? I like the metal ones that have a bunch of jewels and hems on them. The problem I have with cuffs is that I never know where to wear them! Where do you wear your cuffs? What do you think: are cuffs fashionable or are you sick of the hype and are just looking for the latest Pandora charm? Come on, share your tips and tricks with me!
Punk Rocker Fashion: Studs and Spikes
Oct 4th
I have a little confession to make to you readers — I’m a punk rock girl. I love everything that has to do with the punk rock era, including the jewelry! If you are just breaking into the punk rock style — don’t worry, there are only two real tips that you have to worry about. Studs and spikes are all the rage when it comes to fashion in the punk world. Whether you are looking for studded necklaces, spiked bracelets or you are even looking to throw in some spiked heels — just incorporate them into your outfit. Personally, I always try to wear something leather too, when I am going all punk-rock chic! What do you wear all the time that is punk rocker? Give it up!
Pearls — Chic or Grandma’s Jewelry?
Oct 3rd
The first thing that I think about when pearls come to my mind is my grandmother. She was a lover of all the gems and jewels of the world. She constantly was wearing all kinds of pearls and cocktails rings — I always wanted to grow up to be her. Personally, I think that pearls are something that are totally timeless. There isn’t an age that pearls stop being chic and fashionable — that’s my opinion though. I know that pearls are coming back in style nowadays, but do you think that you’d wear ‘em? Or are they so old that you wouldn’t be able to rock out to ‘em? Come on! Share your style with me!
Rings — the Good, the Bad, the Ugly …
Sep 29th
In this day and age, with all of the different jewelry trends, there are some that are just my style. Fashionable cocktail rings for example, they are just not my cup of tea! Sure they are big, sure they are stylish, but I just don’t think that they actually look good on anyone’s fingers — unless it’s with the right outfit. I love a pop of color on some fingers if you are wearing black and white. Let’s say that you are wearing tons of colors, black and white rings would look beautiful. It all boils down to opinion — so what is yours? Do you guys like cocktail rings? Do you think that they should be a popular trend?
Alice in Wonderland Jewelry — Chic & Fab!
Sep 28th
I would have to say by far, my favorite movie movies of all time is Alice of Wonderland. Not only is it one of the very best movies of all time, but the jewelry is absolutely beautiful! Whether you are trying to come up with a little bottle idea like this one or you are thinking that you are just a little teapot necklace or bracelet. There are tons of different ways that you can actually incorporate Alice in Wonderland into your jewelry. Just adding a touch of mystery, a touch of magic and something impossible is awesome! Personally? I love this little bottle necklace! It’s super cute and absolutely would look great with any outfit at all!
Charm Bracelets — What Do You Think?
Sep 27th
Since there are tons upon tons of different companies all coming out with their own version of the charm bracelet, I wanted to gather some opinions. Christmas is coming up (only 3 months away!) and I wanted to see what you guys thought about charm bracelets? There are thoughts of charm bracelets in my future, but I am torn between getting one that looks like the above or getting one that you buy charms for. What do you guys have? Which do you prefer? Come on, you gotta share with me, I’m dying to know which one gets more votes!
Cute Best Friend Necklaces …
Sep 26th
When you have a BFF, there are tons of different ways that you can show your friendship and love. You can constantly hang out, constantly sleep over one another’s houses and always involve each other in plans — or you can pick up some awesome jewelry pieces! I absolutely love any and all BFF necklaces! I think that they are a unique and different way for you to show your BFF that you love and adore them.
Personally, I love this awesome little octopus BFF necklace, I think that it’s so cute and it’d look great on any and all age groups. What do y’all think? Ever you ever gotten your BFF a necklace?
Bib Necklaces — Fashionable & Sleek …
Sep 23rd
Bib necklaces are something that three years ago, I never would have thought about wearing. They are the perfect addition to any sophisticated outfit all the way to a night out on the town. This necklace in particular is one of my favorite. Not only does it take raw stones (stones that have not been polished and shined to a perfectly round, square or triangle shape) and place it in a beautiful holder, but I love the chains that are around them. This is a great example of what type of bib necklaces are out there and why this particular trend is raging right now! So go on ladies, what types of bib necklaces do you like? Can you share a couple of ‘em with me? I’d love to see what outfits you wear them with too!
Jolie Jewelry Line, do Y’all Like it?
Sep 22nd
When a celebrity releases their own line of jewelry, typically I am the first one that says it is going to suck. What do a lot of celebrities know about jewelry and the ins and outs of it? Yeah sure, they partner up with a celebrity jewelry companies, but still, I am always a little skeptical. Angelina’s though? I think it is so classy and so beautiful. It’s definitely all her and even though she started the line for charity (of course!), I think that she should keep it up! This necklace alone is worth it. It’s flawlessly beautiful, would look great on any neck at all and would bring out any outfit you pair with it! Angelina — you got my vote for best jewelry line of 2011!

Sep 21st
With all of the different 2011 jewelry trends out there, it can be really difficult to keep up with them — no worries though, I got your back ladies! Bracelets, let me go ahead and give you the lowdown on what you should be wearing and what’s in style right now. Currently, it’s all about bangles, all about bulk and all about the beads.

Rihanna – Tasteful & Haute Couture …
Sep 20th
Rihanna is one of the few female artists out there that I absolutely love everything about. Her appearance is constantly polished and she is always so tasteful and has the best style in everything from her gems and jewels to her outfits! Take the above photo — I would have never thought to actually wear a Tiffany scarf as a necklace to a Red Carpet event. This is just one example of how Rihanna thinks outside of the box and really makes herself so appealing to everyone and anyone! I love how she can go from dashingly dangle earrings to a scarf that is so sparkly and breathtaking it makes an entire outfit. She’s awesome y’all!
What do you guys like about Rihanna? Do you think that she has all of the style and grace that an artist of her caliber should have? Come on, share some opinions with me!
Dianna Agron — Posh & Ultrasophisticated …
Sep 19th
Did I mention that I love Glee? Lea Michele is one of my favorite characters, but on the girl’s side (I’m personally a Kurt fan … I’d marry the kid if I could!), I absolutely love Quinn. She’s beautiful, breathtaking and has a ton of personality to her! Not only is her style awesome, posh, chic and sophisticated all of the time, but she has evolved! Take a look at what she might have worn back in January. All gemstones, diamonds and silver. While it’s all beautiful, she has changed since then and now, she is a little bit of a rebel! The picture below proves that little Quinn (and Dianna herself) have changed from a sophisticated woman to someone who is evolving into their own person. I personally love her new shorter haircut — and the jewelry on the picture below? To die for!!
Hilary Duff — Pregnant & Beautiful!
Sep 16th
Hilary Duff is one of those fresh-faced, innocent actresses that I will never forget. Oh yeah, I watched her in all of Lizzie’s adventures and even saw the movies — but hasn’t she grown up beautiful? I always loved her chic yet still classic and classy style. Take this beautiful outfit that she is wearing to the Kendra Scott Jewelry Of Beverly Hills Grand Opening Benefiting “Blessings In A Backpack”. It is understated and awesome looking on her body. I especially love that bracelet that she has on her wrist and how it climbs up from the bottom to the top. It’s unique, different and has a little of it’s own flare to it. What do you guys think of Hilary Duff? Do you still love her?

Sep 15th
Do y’all watch Modern Family? Yanno, the show that won a million different Emmy’s? I used to, the first season, but I need to catch up on it. One of the actresses that is making all kinds of waves nowadays is Sofia Vergara. This little perky chick is not only super famous, but she has come out with her own clothing line and is the front runner on tons of different commercials nowadays!

Just take a look at these beautiful earrings ladies, wouldn’t you love to pull off something like this? They are so bold, so dangly and so sparkly — I love them!!
Lea Michele — Stylish, Chic & Fabulous!
Sep 14th
Glee is a show that I love. Seriously guys, it’s one of the best shows out there! Not only do I love all of the styles, but the stars are friggin’ incredible! Take Lea Michele for instance. She was picked right off of the Broadway stage and placed into Glee and now she is a superstar! Her style though, it is so classic it is unmatched. I love watching her at all of the Red Carpet events and I always try to guess what she is going to wear. This little pale pink piece though, I love it! The full-length gown is awesome but it’s the jewelry that brought it all together. I love the cocktail ring on her index finger. It’s a splash of blue and honestly, it’s the piece that makes Lea Michele the best! What do you guys like? Love it? Hate it?
The Beauty of Amethyst Engagement Rings …
Sep 13th
Not every single girl in the world wants to have diamonds on her fingers when she gets engaged, some girls want a little bit of color added to their fingers. I absolutely love purple and I love the way that amethyst looks all wrapped up in platinum or silver (I’m totally not a yellow gold person, but hey — that’s just me). If you are thinking about popping the question to your girlfriend, you might want to look into something a little less conventional and a little more unique! Take the ring above — this is a beautiful example of what amethyst can look like!
If you are looking for something that is a little bit more traditional but still has a flare of purple, this shiny little ring is the ideal example of what amethyst can look like when it is transformed into a more traditional ring. I love this one and personally … I might end up getting it for myself! What do you guys think of amethyst rings as an engagement ring? Do you think they take away from the engagement itself? Would you be disappointed if you got amethyst instead of diamonds?

While everyone might be in love with Kim and Kourtney, I think that Khloe is the sister that gets forgotten a lot of the time. I love Khloe. She is beautiful, comfortable and she is the most stable person out of the Kardashian/Jenner bunch! Not only is Khloe my favorite because she is so stable, she’s also the most stylish and fashionable! Take a look at this picture below. Not only does she have a great outfit on, but she really knows how to style it up right with fantastic bangles, awesome CC belts and her long, flowing hair. She’s so friggin’ beautiful guys! What do you think? Do you agree? What do you like about this outfit?
