Accessorize with Earrings

Monday, September 15th, 2008

One of my favorite things to do in the world is to collect earrings! There are pairs I own that I don’t even know where I’m actually going to wear them but I bought them because I really like how pretty they looked. Whether it’s a fancy pair or the genuine thing, earrings are a great way to complete the wardrobe.

Where do you get those Sarah Palin Glasses?

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

I’m in need of new specs and more than anything fashionable, I’m drawn to frameless eye-glasses because I think they don’t this is the kind that won’t age me too much.  

Maybe it’s because I keep seeing her on TV and in the news a lot, I’m wondering what those glasses are on Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Sarah Palin!

A quick search has brought me to this site

Sarah Palin is wearing Japanese designer Kazuo Kawasaki’s 704 available from Vision Glasses and it says so right there in the product description. The glasses come in five different colors and Sarah Palin’s had hers in gray. This prescription glasses is said to be a top-seller. And well, I would imagine that it should be selling like hotcakes right now.

The glasses cost $349.99.

Mary Kate and Ashley’s 2008 Jewelry Line

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

mary-kate-and-ashley-jewelry-2008

Okay a lot of their items go for about $65- $500 but I guess you’re also paying for the name and for quality.

In collaboration with Robert Lee Morris, one of the premiere jewelry and accessory designers in the US, famous celebrity twins Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen unleash their latest product line — five fiercely designed jewelry pieces from the Elizabeth and James Collection. The pieces are currently up for pre-order at Intermix. They will actually be available come September.

These are frankly not my style and I would imagine, not everybody’s style as well. Daggers in necklaces? I’ll pass. But then I’m also not hip and kind of old. It will be out of character of me if I wear pieces with snakes on it.  These definitely fit a much younger set. The pieces are very trendy.

The jewelry looks good when worn by itself but I think they do pair much better when mixed with other accessories.

I do have a favorite piece though. It’s the Cross Chain Necklace which is designed bit more subtly than the rest of the jewelry line.

Elizabeth and Jane Cross Chain Necklace

About 40′ long, this golden bronze necklace is designed with small crosses with interlocking links. To me it’s quite a versatile piece. I imagine I could wear it at a semi-formal function and yet I can also wear this when I’m in jeans.

The Elizabeth and James Collection carry about eighty or more styles of rings, earrings, necklaces and metal cuffs. Some are designed with beading or daggers and crosses.
