Weekend Bling - 7/24 - 7/25

One of my "simple pleasures" in life is enjoying a good magazine at the beach. Luckily, I got to do that this very weekend. Hamptons Magazine reminded me why Kara Ross is such a cool jewelry designer with a feature on exotic printed accessories and a gorg. pick of a turqoiuse Kara by Kara Ross cuff. Exotic leathers are hot for both summer and fall and we think this pink cuff by Kara Ross is just the ticket to transition you flawlessly from season to season. We could picture it with an all white ensemble now, as well as with an all camel (one of Fall's key colors) look come autumn.

What's better is this Kara by Kara Ross Cuff is currently seriously discounted from $415 to $166 at TheOutNet.com.

Weekend Bling - 5/15 - 5/16

We are seeing these horizontal charms everywhere and at first we weren't sure how we felt. Of course this new jewelry trend is cute but is it needed? I mean, do we really need another charm necklace in our lives? Well, the answer is most probably no, but unfort. charms are sort of like potato chips. You can't just have one.

We first saw these horizontal crosses when we were in LA in March and now we see them popping up everywhere - not just in necklaces but in rings, bracelets and even earrings. We have to admit there is something really cool and unique about the style and what we love even more about today's bling - Jennifer Zeuner Mini Horizontal Cross Necklace - is the simplicity of the style. You can easily layer this piece with other charm necklaces (our fav. look) and pair with all your favorite statement earrings and cuffs of the season.

We are partial to the necklace in silver as shown, but it also comes in gold. It's 16 inches in length and available at Singer-22 online for $110.

Weekend Bling - 4/10 - 4/11

I'm counting down the days to my vacation (six, yay!) to St. Lucia and just can't wait! I could use some sun, a good tan and a (couple of) Pina Coladas. The Kenneth Jay Lane earrings above naturally caught my eye for their island flavor!

We really, really love these earrings and not just because we are going on vacation, but because they would add an instant just-came-back-from-the-Caribbean vibe to your Spring look regardless if this was the case or not. The Kenneth Jay Lane Multi Stone Earrings feature assorted Swarovski crystals, two-tone resin beads, and metal beads at the scalloped panels. At almost 5 inches long they are the quintessential statement earrings. Clip these on with a bright colored maxi dress and a pair of gold gladiator sandals and you are set for the summer!

You can find these at ShopBop online for $242.

Weekend Bling - 4/3 - 4/4

Happy Easter All! We were visting our brother upstate at college and unforuntatly didn't have the time to blog (gasp) but did have a lovely time with our family! We even had a little time to shop at the Rochester mall and bring back a beautiful bling for you all!

In lieu of an Easter basket my mom bought me a few goodies (okay including a chocolate bunny) including some super fab banana republic "rocker chic" chained earrings and the gorg Laurete Headband featured above! The Laureate Headband is from Anthropologie and is just another reminder why we need to shop their more often!! They have a truly adorable collection this spring and we really had to hold ourselves back from wanting to buy everything from the hippie chic sundresses to beaded belts and crystal drop earrings.

The Laureate headband is a true gem blinged out with gorg beaded and crystal detailing and super comfortable to wear. It was what we wore in place of the typical "Easter bonnet" today and looked pretty chic if we do say so ourselves...

Hope those who celebrated the holiday today had a lovely one!

Fashionably Yours,
