Chunk-A-Fy My Bangles

 

I bumped into this picture of Nicole Richie and I wanted to share with you.

Throwing on tons of bangles to liven up any outfit is a total DO!

 If you don’t have chunky bangles like this, just take a handful of regular bangles and put them on together.

I threw on a mix match of bracelets this morning to have a similar effect:

I got these at Forever 21- less the 6 bucks.

 Add as many as desired…

Xoxo

Love Studs

I wanted to dedicated this post to my favorite accessory of the month… Earrings!

If you have an extra $12-$16 to spare do yourself a favor and stop in at Urban Outfitters for a cute pair of earrings. After falling in love with a pair my girlfriend had on I stopped in and now I’m going back for more!

Flower with Rhinestone Post-$14-urbanoutfitters.com (these are the ones I have)

 

Small Pave Dome Studs in Blush- $12


Small Pave Dome Studs in Blue- $12


Blue & Green Rhinestone Post- $16


Shell Post in Brass- $12

 

These earings  have a vintage feel to them so wearing them even with a t-shirt feels so effortless but looks so chic. And the price is reasonable especially because you will get so much use out of them believe me, I’m living it!

Happy Shopping!

Quelle langue parle votre chapeau?

I was getting dressed for lunch and a matinee Saturday morning, and I couldn’t decide what to wear on my head. The predictions of the day… snow in the NYC Metro area.

What to wear on my head???

After trying on a few hats I realized, my hat collection is multi- cultured!

 In a matter of a few minutes I tried a look from three parts of the world…

I tried my Russian hat:

 Ohh La La the French inspired Beret:

The very mysterious scarf wrap, like women from the Middle East:

The final verdict???  The scarf wrap!

Pay attention to what inspires us, many cultures, and corners of the world make up the art of Fashion.  I am proud to be opened to the diversity of it, Fashion doesn’t have a culture…

If your feeling multi-cultural try web sites below for good deals:

I Love you to Infinity

Can’t get enough of infinity scarves! I know, I have already posted a blog about the infinity scarf BUT I had to put this one on a blog of its own.

pROXY1-6072761_alternate18_t382x444

I was at Macy’s (25% off Friends and Family this weekend only) headed for the door, when this scarf yelled at me, from the display table, to try it on.

Animal print is really cool, especially in the winter months, and the fact that they put it on an infinity scarf  (my obsession still) was a no brainer, it was a must add to the collection.

Or go on over to Macy’s and get an extra 25% off like i did!

Canal Street, NYC

f546c49e6754b882_whitney-headband_larger

Last winter while watching The City, I saw Whitney wearing this winter headband you see in the above picture.

This a great way to keep your ears and head warm while not really messing up the hair. After searching for it on the Internet with not much luck, I found it on Canal Street!

If you have a couple extra dollars, and want to update the accessory closet, Canal is the place to go. They have very cool scarves, hats, gloves, earrings, necklaces, watches and so much more at totally reasonable prices.

I paid $8.00 for my winter head band, and it was exactly what I’ve been looking for!!!

Of course, try to avoid the knock off handbag dealers. It’s a bit of an underground, shady industry which takes away from the economy (Counterfeit products represent 7% of world trade. That’s more than $350 billion, according to the International Chamber of Commerce.) Just something to keep in mind.

Take a trip to Canal, you will definitely find some cool pieces to add to your collection.

Good Luck!

To Infinity and Beyond…

Obsession of the week: My Infinity Scarf…

I got a red (tis’ the season) infinity scarf at The Gap for $19.50. Of course I had a coupon for 30% off and paid less then 15 bucks for it!!! Yay!!!

I walk into my mothers house with my new infinity scarf and she’s like… what is that???  So I take it off, I wrap it around my mothers neck and shes says it feels cozy, it wont fall off, I like the color, I can cover my head too!… Can I keep this one???

Absolutely comfortable and completes any outfit, doesn’t matter the look you are going for, your age, this scarf is a must!!!  Get it for yourself, get it for a friend, you wont regret it…

Why so Plain, Jane?

Are you a Plain Jane?? Are simple t-shirts and jeans your look?? FF says that’s okay! All you need is a simple accessory like a scarf to spice up your wardrobe. Add color to sass up your style, not only will you look cute in your new scarf you’ll be super cozy on cold days.

To all my Jane’s for $15.00 or less you can keep your plain tees and add one of these to liven things up a bit!
