Timepiece


I never used to wear a watch. I thought it was a waste of real estate on my wrist, taking away from the possibility of wearing bangles or a cuff bracelet. I also thought it looked too businesslike for me. This negative attitude against all watches is one I held on to until I saw a gold Michael Kors watch on a friend. I was stunned by it's good looks. I've had one for over a year now, and I still love it. It's a heavy, handsome, masculine-inspired watch. It's the first watch I've ever worn that I enjoy looking at. It can be dressed up or down, day or night. Michael Kors watches are manufactured by Fossil, a brand that produces many good-looking and well-made styles of their own. From what I've heard, you can get a decent price on the more expensive Michael Kors watches at the Fossil outlet store.

HRH Collection



Her name is Alexandra. She's on YouTube, she has a blog, she sells her jewelry on Etsy. I just bought three of her necklaces - the Elin, the Coco, and the Sofi. The minute they arrived, they were immediately incorporated into my everyday wardrobe. They were exactly what I was looking for - something bold but still simple and easy, with a classic vibe. Worn alone or together, each piece makes a statement. Alexandra is a beautiful and witty fashion "guru." She has developed an enviable personal style from her light blond locks and bright lips down to her ankle boots (in the winter) and sandals (in the summer). I love her vintage-inspired style - it's pretty and rich looking, but not excessive. She manages to look put together yet effortless - something I aspire to! Reading her blog and watching her videos are such a joy, and have inspired me to have fun working on my own personal collection.

Little Studs


I am in love with these tiny pyramids. Such a cute alternative to simple diamond studs. Check out Bloomingdales for a huge selection in stud earrings.

Beautiful Ring


Take a look at Nicole Richie's engagement ring! She collaborated with designer Neil Lane to create this stunning piece of jewelry. It features an octagonal framework around the centerpiece - a 4+ carat sparkler. It is glitzy, but also sharp, with an Art Deco feel. Nicole's cool dark nails add an edge to the look.
