Top Shop, Here I come!


Hey BBB readers! Happy (early) Thanksgiving. I'm headed to Europe tomorrow for a work event and a trip to my favorite city - London - to visit my little brother who is studying there. Needless to say, there will be many a trip to Top Shop!

There won't be any posts for the next week but fear not, we return on Monday, November 29th with a special post/haul with all the European treasures (can't wait to jewelry shop at the markets) and my full London "trend report."

See you soon and until then here is a little bling, courtesy of Top Shop UK, of course, to hold you over.

Daily Bling - Thursday, November 17



I am loving Fallon's collection of statement necklace's available right now at Barney's. Bold, fun and all definitely show stoppers, you are sure to stand out in the crowd and make your little black dress pop with one of these stunners.

Our current obsession from the collection? Today's Daily Bling called the "violet mesh bow necklace." We picture Katy Perry rocking this with one of her signature corset satin tops and a fringe skirt but you can also pull it off with a pin-up inspired all black satin dress or really any strapeless little number you have in your closet.

Fallon's Violet Mesh Bow Necklace is available at Barney's for $255.

Daily Bling - Tuesday, November 16

Antique Metal & Pearl Clip

I love hair accessories and especially love to rock little gems, like today's daily bling, during the Holiday season. Why? These festive little doo-dads can easily dress up a look and put you in "party mode."

Today's bling, from Urban Outfitters, is sweet and pretty and could really add some polish to your look. This antique pearl and metallic flower clip is very feminine and soft, but also has a vintage vibe thats just a bit sexy and "pin-up" like. We'd wear it with a black a-line cocktail dress to a holiday party or with a more casual skinny jeans and chunky sweater looks all winter long. At only $12 its is a stylish steal!

Comfy, Cozy Winter Wear

Something about the cold weather and holiday season upon us makes me crave the following: Starbucks peppermint mochas, baking cookies, online shopping and of course wearing comfy, cozy sweats! The holiday season is definitely a time to hang in with the family, decorate the house and watch holiday specials on tv! Just because you are staying in doesn't mean you shouldn't look cute doing it, though! This year our favorite "mall stores" like The Gap, J. Crew, Victoria's Secret and the LOFT have cute "stay in" looks that would even do well out of the house!

  • J. Crew Metallic Jersey Stitch Hat, $32
  • Victoria Secret PINK NFL Collection New York Giants Bling Boyfriend Sweats, $59.50
  • Gap Floral Applique Slippers in Lipstick Red, $29.50

Daily Bling - Tuesday, November 9

Emerald crystal cuff

S0 I must be in a gold cuff mood this week but it must be said: this cuff is fab.u.lous! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Where is it from, you ask? J. Crew! I mean, its no secret I love me some J. Crew jewels but I was oh so, surprised when I saw this true art deco inspired cuff while website window shopping last night. The emerald detailing is divine (as is the juxtaposition of the gemstones). It's definitely a special piece; fit for Holiday parties and winter weddings.

The Emerald Crystal Cuff is $98 and a J.Crew.com must have of the season!
