On a recent trip to Forever 21, I was amazed by how much sparkle there was in the jewelry section. There were oversized necklaces galore, adorned with huge colorful rhinestones. I picked up a necklace (see above) and wasn't even sure myself if I could pull it off without looking like I was trying too hard. I consulted in my shopping buddy and she said to go for it. The first time I wore it out, I instantly covered it with a blazer because I just thought it was too much (I am not always the most brave when it comes to new trends!). However, this past weekend, I decided to venture and try it out when I went shopping. I wore it with a plain black tee and dark washed jeans (nothing else. No watch, no ring, not even small studded earrings). The verdict? Positive! I had four random people compliment the necklace and I felt better about wearing it out. So, I encourage you to wear that huge sparkly necklace and stand out from the crowd! Below are some more options, which can all be found at Forever 21. If you still feel like these necklaces are too much, then try for a smaller option (first image below).
I recently passed by a Louis Vuitton store and was captivated by this Madonna ad in their store window. Yes, she looks amazing and she really captures the Louis Vuitton spirit--but that wasn't what drew me to the photo. These 4.5 inch tribal heels from the Spring/Summer 2009 fashion show made me want to splurge on the steep $1,540 price tag. I've noticed that many celebs such as Victoria Beckham (seen in the black) and Misha Barton (seen in the red) have been spotted wearing these show stopping beaded and feathered heels. I personally would prefer the red ones because I believe it is designed better and I just simply love the vibrant colors. What do you think?
I was browsing the internet and stumbled across the Swacket (sweater+jacket combined) by Harputs OWN. This usually isn't my style, but I am intrigued that you can create so many different looks using one garment. There are only 4 sets of snaps so you can wear it multiple ways, and it comes in my favorite color for the fall season--charcoal gray. However, the only thing that is keeping me from purchasing it is the price ($445). Below are some of the looks that you can create with this garment. How trendy! Perhaps one day I can get my hands on the Swacket!
