Pretty Things at Every Price: Necklaces

September 22, 2010 by

I think we all can appreciate a good piece of neck candy every now and then. Sometimes it’s enough to take a plain old tee from drab to fab! Here are some terrific tipsy girl selections that are sure to fit any budget with the varying price points.

  1. Der: This seems like a very simple (and inexpensive), yet interesting necklace that is neutral enough that I would get tons of mileage out of it.
  2. Court: So necklaces are something of a love/hate thing with me.  Love the look, hate the feeling I am being choked?  BUT, I do try to make an attempt to integrate them more and more, because I know how well they can spruce up an outfit.  I love color and anything floral.  This little locket speaks to me in some many different ways.  TOO CUTE.
  3. AK: I am almost always drawn to bright and colorful necklaces and/or statement necklaces. Obvs I love the turquoise in this in addition to its ability to be dressed up or down.  I’m actually physically restraining myself from buying this necklace as you read this.
  4. Sarah: You can never go wrong with a pearl necklace. I love the layered look of this and the flower adds just a touch of something extra…I could see myself wearing this necklace to dress up a tee or a button-down shirt in the fall!

Pretty Things at Every Price: Bracelets

September 15, 2010 by

Last week was earrings, and this week is bracelets…looks like there’s something for everyone’s taste and budget!

  1. Der: Metal Gem Cuff, I love the distressed bronze color of this bracelet and it’s a statement piece that you can add to a simple outfit for more flair for only $4.00!
  2. Court: Retro Chartreuse Bangle, Love love the resin retro look to this one. I also think that color yellow is a great accent to almost any outfit.
  3. AK: Turquoise Howlite Cross, I’m pretty sure everything I’m going to pick in regards to jewelry is going to have turquoise in it.  I would totally add this bracelet for my pop of color in an otherwise basic black top and jeans outfit.
  4. Sarah: Silver and Leather Wrap Bracelet, This is a really cute and simple bracelet that I could see myself wearing on a daily basis…something perfect and a little edgy for fall!

Pretty Things at Every Price: Earrings

September 8, 2010 by

Up this month for PTAEP, jewelry! I mean, a girl can’t get enough…can she? (Pssshhhh…who are we kidding, NO we can’t get enough!) First up, earrings:

  1. Der: Lacquered Crescent Earrings, There is a contestant on Project Runway that has been sporting some earrings almost identical to these and I’m crushing on them HARD.
  2. AK: Organic Oval-Blue Turquoise, I tend to be drawn towards earrings that are bold and have turquoise in them…so these are right up my alley!
  3. Sarah: Crystal Pebble Earrings, Sometimes you just need some studs right!?! I LOVE the simple elegance of these earrings, and I actually have a few weddings in the near future and these would certainly jazz up my ensembles!
  4. Court: Matte Drop Leaf Earring, Shaped like leaves.  Love anything nature related especially earrings. Love that they are drop/dangles (whateverthehellyoucallthestyle) cause those always tend to be pieces you can wear with anything.

An Unexpected Outfit

September 6, 2010 by

So as I was browsing the catalogs and the internets the other day, I ran across all of these items separately and then realized that they all WENT TOGETHER, like as an outfit. Just add jeans, DONE!

  1. Sundance, Sweetheart Gathered Tee
  2. Etsy, Condescending Post Earrings
  3. Zappos, Cole Haan Air Bandon

Of course you do see the problem here right? I mean it all came together so easily, of course it would all be a bit more than I wanted to spend for a casual outfit.

RingMaster

August 10, 2010 by

A few weeks ago I wrote about these after I fell in love with the delicate look that electrical cord could have when made into a ring.  Same concept here.   A tad more industrial looking, but I am sporty spice, so it’s all good.

VERY cool rings made of high tech material just calling my name.  The solid titanium is calling my name.

I’d Like to Make a Statement Please

July 26, 2010 by

I’m all over jewelry if yall haven’t noticed already.  I think a piece of jewelry can turn a whole outfit around.  Especially a pair of earrings or a necklace.  I was perusing Anthropologie and happened upon this necklace that I am totally in love with. I think it would be perfect with a short sleeved maroonish red dress I have…

Are you statement jewelry peeps? Would love to know what you are wearing lately that falls in that category!
