Metallics are all the rage right now, which means gold & silver alike are topping the charts. If both strike your fancy & you’re worried you’ll have to choose one or the other, you can breathe a sigh of relief. Gone is yesterday’s belief that gold & silver do not belong in the same ensemble; in fact, mixing them is encouraged.

Metallics are dynamic by nature, the blend of gold & silver in particular, lends not only an intriguing contrast, but also a sense of visual dimension & texture. With the right balance of the two, you can feel both elegant & eclectic.

Red, White, & Bue

Whether it is because of the American election in front of us, the American Flag seems more popular than ever. We see the famous thirteen stripes & fifty stars on tops & shorts, but there are also shoes & dresses draped in this print. Here is just a few things you can add to your wardrobe for Independence Day!

Happy Voting!!!

Electrifying Summer Style

The second that Summer officially arrives, the city explodes in a simultaneous celebration of thrills like food from food trucks, yummy cocktails, & great company while hanging outdoors- preferably by the water. Sundresses, shorts, sandals or flip-flops, & straw hats are the comfortable summer attire for most.

Lighter & brighter colors, like neon, are everywhere in the fashions, interiors, & even in the outdoors. I think it is a great Summer trend that everyone can try. So embrace these brighter colors & get inspired!

Happy Saturday!

Today I don't know what it is, but I have some money burning a hole in my pocket! Yes, I did just sound like my mother... Anyway, I went to Ikea, which was fantastic in itself, but now I am looking at jewelry online! While looking through my findings, I thought I would share some of the really nice accessories that could be considered art themselves! I hope you enjoy these little yummy treats!



Tiffany & Company's Torque Step Bangle designed by one of my favorite Architects, Frank Gehry
I am obsessed with his whole collection!

Alisa Miller honeycomb line of jewelry is incredible





Grain Designers Chelsea Green and James Minola came up with the electric love ring



NoMilk Today by Eva made from polymer clay jewelry





Mutewatch is a Swedish company in Stockholm designed a simple, intuitive watch that doesn’t even look like a watch at all. It's a sleek, plain bracelet-like design doesn’t function until you tap the flat surface. Then an LED touchscreen will light up & you can swipe through its different functions: clock, alarm, & timer.
