Pendants That Pack A Punch

Sometimes going bold with your jewelry doesn’t necessarily mean wearing multiple bracelets upon one another, dazzling earrings, a cocktail ring and a necklace all at once. That might be going a bit overboard. Sometimes bold means getting one piece of jewelry that is captivating without overpowering your outfit. A fine balance that at times can be hard to achieve. Featured below are pendants that make a statement whether worn for everyday use or a special occasion. From colorful and muted gems to wooden accents, there is a piece to fit your personal style. To the right is Erica Molinari’s Multicolord Pendant. Made from a mix of colorful sapphire briolettes, it has a playful yet elegant appeal. Price: $6,250 availabe at fragments.com

Bottega Veneta has been making exclusive high quality couture since the early 1960’s. After merging with Gucci a few years ago I have noticed their designs appeal to a younger crowd and seem to be getting more stylish with each passing season. These new python sandals are perhaps their most popular shoe to date and are available exclusively to those willing to pre- order and join the waiting list. With a four inch heel, gold hardware and python straps these sandals aren’t cheap, they retail for $1,170 and based on their popularity nobody seems to mind!

Irregular Choice Patent Leather Shoes

 Irregular Choice Patent Leather Shoes

Irregular Choice is famous for their outrageous designs, some of which go a bit over the top sometimes. Not this though. It’s great that they made the same style of shoe in Hermia Wedge high heel and Countess low heel, this way you can choose if you want them for the night out or just for every day. And I want both! The patent leather will dress up any look, and the contrasting white or pink piping, and button, and especially the diagonal Mary Jane meet T-strap make the shoes so unique. Plus, as always, the funky graphics on the lining and soles. Both pairs are at about $100 at Zappos.com and endless.com.

Friday, March 28th, 2008

For spring and summer 2008, shine is everywhere in terms of fashion accessories. From the purses we carry to the clothes we choose to the shoes we wear, the newest trend is all about shine from head to toe. Jewelry is one accessory that will never go out of style and can last a lifetime with the proper care.

This unique design has lots of character, and it just so happens that blue and yellow are two of the hottest colors for spring and summer:

Bracelets for Spring
The key to combining jewelry with the richly patterned frocks and tops for Spring 2008 lies in analyzing the neckline and the sleeve length. Spring 2008 garments are shown having at most 3/4 length sleeves - making bracelets a more visible jewelry accessory. This sleeve profile makes precious metal bracelets the perfect backdrop for heavily-patterned fabrics.
