Style Radar: Statement Necklace

The trend started in 2011, but is going to be even better in 2012. 

Personally I love this style and am always on the search for a great 

statement necklace! Below are some great examples and photos!

Enjoy! ( I know you will!)

Isn't this beautiful (above and below)

And an even newer trend that followed is the under the

collar necklace trend, and I love the way it looks!

HOW TO: UNDER COLLAR NECKLACE

1) Pick your favorite collared shirt. Button up...all the way

2) Pair with your favorite statement/short necklace & make sure

your collar lies over it.

It's A New Year!

It's already a week into the new year, and I had yet to come up with my list of resolutions. I think part of it was because I believe that change can happen at any time of the year but New Years is a great time to reiterate those points and if you haven't thought about them yet, now's the time to really put them into action! So I thought and reflected and came up with a couple interesting resolutions/goals for my self:

 

ACCESSORIZE MORE

I love accessories and always tell my self to enjoy

them on a daily basis but fail due to laziness. This time, it's for real!

WORK ON MY RELATIONSHIP

...with food that is! We have seen healthier days!

TRY OUT MORE DIY CRAFTS

I get a fare share of DIY type stuff with my accessories business, 

but I would like to try new stuff, décor, other jewelry, fun art pieces, etc.

COOK MORE

I love food and cooking. I bake a lot, but fail to find time to cook

a good meal. I want to try to cook once every two weeks at the least!

BE KIND

more than normal that is! I would like to comment on

blogposts, and to people in person more often. I always have

great thoughts about a post, or about what a person is wearing

or doing, but fail to actually make the effort to let them know

the positiveness (<-- if that's a word) of what they're doing, 

so I would like to do that, because there's no harm in a nice

gesture like that, and everyone loves/deserves a compliment!

DRINK MORE WATER

I really need to do this! I'm so far away

from the daily amount of 8 glasses!

Water has so many healing properties and essential 

nutrients/minerals for your body, and it makes your 

skin look real smooth and clean!

I'll leave you with this cute video from Kandee Johnson on Youtube! Happy 2012! See you tomorrow.

What are yours? It's always interesting to read other people's resolutions. Sometimes they remind you of ones you need to add to your list, but hadn't thought of beforehand. Leave your resolutions in the comments? I would love to know!

Style Radar: Jewel Tones

One of my favorite things about (this) fall is jewel tones!
The bright, punchy colors are so much fun, but have a more sophisticated and almost 'warm' edge in comparison to summer bright hues

Here are some of my faves this season:

(click image to enlarge)

From top-left onwards:

BLOUSE:

Equipment blouses: The place for your perfect blouse. Love these bright ones. The sheer one is quite nice but please please please do wear a tank top underneath! The whole sheer top, or bright bra look, is so tacky! please don't. Keep your self respect. Even if you don't care about that...Wear something!

PHONE CASE:

How amazing is this miu miu phone case? So gorgeous (Love the navy-gold combo)

 and so versatile, perfect for fall and winter

SWEATER:

Roberto Cavalli Sweater: with embellished shoulders! via net-a-porter. 

Love all of it!

SCARF:

Yves Saint Laurent berry colored scarf. via net-a-porter. Love this color, and can add 

instant 'pop' to any outfit. Perfect for keeping you warm or even just because!

RING:

Charm & Chain green onyx ring by Kendra Scott. 

Brighten up any outfit with this jewel!

NECKLACE:

Lauren Elan sunshine necklace. Full of bright beads and satin. 

A great chunky necklace for over a turtle neck, sweater, or blouse.

SWEATER:

J.W.Anderson Sweater in orange, via net-a-porter. 

I would say, an orange sweater is a staple this season

SHOES:

Brian Atwood Pumps in (marcella) electric purple, complete with gold heels! 

What's not to like about the color and shape? 

(we're not so sure how we feel about the 'real snake skin' though)

PURSE:

A.P.C. textured leather shoulder bag via net-a-porter. Nothing like a classic leather shoulder bag. Accessories other bright elements of your outfit with a neutral black hand bag.
