Bling Fest

It's been a while since I have done a daily bling post - been busy, busy, busy with my day job this winter and just exhausted at night. Such is life I suppose, and no real excuse, but for my loyal BBB readers craving some bling - this post's for you!

I thought I'd break down some of my favorite pieces for Spring - so check it!

These Hexagon Hoops are the perfect compliment to any 70s inspired, wide legged denim look. Good job, Kim Kardashian, we are loving your Belle Noel jewelry line including these gorgeous simple hoops for only $20 at Singer22.com

The original "celeb-socialite-jewelry designer", Nicole Richie, never disappoints with House of Harlow. Her aztec pieces for Spring/Summer 2011 feature a lot of turquoise and black - I'd wear this pendent on a fresh all white look.

Two things I love? Bright colors and wrap bracelets you can pile up your wrist. This Tory Burch piece embodies both with a girly flair. Perfect for the office, Sunday brunch , a tennis match - whatever!

Did I mention I love neons? Tory Burch is certainly bringing the fun with this other lust-worthy piece from her Spring line. Bright pink, yellow and turqouise beading and rubber knot "charms" makes this necklace unique, fresh and a perfect bathing suit compliment!

Daily Bling - Tuesday, October 26

Oh how I love Nicole Richie's killer style. A boho queen, she is who I want to be when it comes to dressing in real life. Unique, chic without trying to hard and just effortlessly cool. We are so proud that she ditched Paris, drugs, and those scary hair extensions for a life of mommyhood and fashion superstardom.

If you are not a stranger to BBB then you know how much I also love her House of Harlow 1960 accessories line. Nicole's latest additions to the line are all awesome but our favorite, you ask? The new Tribal Drop Earrings. We see Nikki herself wearing them with a printed tunic, tights and some vintage camel riding boots from the 197os.

The Tribal Drop Earrings are 14k gold plated and dangle 3 inches in length. You can scoop 'em up at ShopBop for $100.

Daily Bling - Wednesday, April 14

One of our fav. fav. fav. designers and celebrity socialites Nicole Richie debuted some new Spring items for her House of Harlow 1960 and Winter Kate lines this week and we couldn't be more excited. We will talk about her new House of Harlow items today but look at later in the week for a full review of her new Winter Kate Collection shoes!!

Our fav. new jewel in her Spring line and today's daily bling is the Enamel Sealed Cuff above. Nicole knows how to do a great bracelet and we cant wait to try on this one in real life. At about 3 inches long this cuff will definitely provide a boho, vintage statement to any look! It's also got a decidingly Ancient Greece thing going on in its construction and detailing (even the seal is reminiscent of some sort of ancient family emblem). We could totally see some beautiful greek goddess would wear with a white flowy dress and gladiator sandals. Come to think of it that sounds like a pretty chic look to wear even in present day.....

At $220 its a bit of a pricey piece but with the right outfit will pull together your whole look! Check out the Enamel Sealed Cuff and Nicole's other new jewelry additions to House of Harlow 1960 at ShopBop.

The Daily Bling - Friday, March 19th

I'm in an LA state of mind. And that being said, I bring you a daily bling from one of my fav. LA based lines designed by one of my fav. LA based celebs - Nicole Richie's House of Harlow 1960 line.

We have been hearing that "sideways" rings are very hot for Spring. (Note: We are defining sideways rings as those rings that have large charms that go left to right rather then straight up and down.) We have seen a few that actually have two ring holes - they are meant to wear on two fingers but are connected by a large sideaways gemstone or charm. The problem with these two finger rings is comfort - they just look TOO uncomfortable for us. We don't need to have our fingers connected and our hands tied down. Even for the name of fashion. If you want to get the "sideways" look of the two finger ring without the hassle, then you should def. check out the House of Harlow 1960 Key Cocktail Ring in Gold. It has a real antique feel which we love - it seems like a vintage Chanel piece! The oversized key is cool and very right now. It would be a great complement to a chiffon tunic and leggings look or boho chic maxi dress.

The House of Harlow 1960 Cocktail Ring is $55 and available here at Singer-22.

The Daily Bling - Thursday, February 18

I have a confession. I wish I was a hippie at heart. Boho Chic Style Moment? I was all over it. Yoga? I totally dig it. Sienna Miller? She is my girl crush. Organic Food... well maybe that's where it stops.

The inner hippie in me absolutely loves Nicole Richie's House of Harlow 1960 collection for this reason. Beyond being the ultimate boho chic icon, Nicole has created a wearable, high-quality and absolutely irresistable line of jewlery and accessories that we are all over (who didn't love her orginal gladiator cuffs?).

Today's daily bling is the House of Harlow 1960 Abalone Station Necklace. Part hippie chic, part sante fe, this fab choker necklace is a great transitional piece that could be worn over a turtleneck sweater dress now or with a tan and simple white sundress come spring/summer. Shopbop.com (where its available for purchase at $150 price tag) describes it as a piece to pull your whole outfit together and I couldn't agree more. This little beauty is a classic example of how an accessory can transform your whole look!

The House of Harlow 1960 Abalone Station Necklace can be purchased at http://www.shopbop.com/abalone-station-necklace-house-harlow/vp/v=1/845524441860622.htm?fm=search-shopbysize.
