Summer Nights and Classy Style

Warm summer nights present the perfect opportunity to glam up with some of our favorite designers. Chan Luu's summer line of lightweight cotton-cashmere scarves add the perfect bit of warmth to any outfit. Check out their bright colors and patterned beauties here. We love Alexis Bittar for his pretty pieces made of glowing lucite and shimmering stones. CC Skye is also on the jewelery hot list for their feminine punk style. Pair these designers with your favorite skinny jeans, sassy stilettos and a top and you're ready to go!

What's your Valentine's Day Glam?

What's your Valentine's Day Glam? Rocker, or sweet? Or a little of both? This year I'm all about the fun, stylish pieces that are out there. Jessica Kagan Cushman has amazing cuffs and bangles- the romantic "We'll always have Paris..." is my personal favorite, right next to the "Winged Hearts." Want to wear to the love this year? Sir Alistair's Rai scarves have been spotted on the hottest celebrities, including Lindsay Lohan, Vanessa Hudgens, and Jessica Alba. Check out the Gayatri Mantra scarves in Love and Adore. The Kenneth Jay Lane Clover Crystal Heart ring works perfectly with Alexis Bittar's chunky statement necklace and the Kooba Hobo bag in berry tops it all off!

Make a Beautiful, Bold Statement With Your Necklace!

I love this year's big, bold and beautiful necklaces! They do exactly what they're supposed to- make a statement! Some of my favorites: Alexis Bittar (AMAZING!), Extasia, Kenneth Jay Lane... These pieces work great for going out and look awesome with jeans and a t-shirt too. They're so versatile.

Set Your Silver Dust Bubble Ring to Stun!

I was traipsing through NYC last weekend and was blown away by a very hip fashionista at the Hotel Chelsea wearing this fantastic ring. It was 1.5 inchs high and nearly 2 inches wide of stunning fashion statement. It practically made her outfit. These can be had at Creative Contrast.

Alexis Bittar Floral Pins from "Lipstick Jungle"

Everything floral - from floral prints to flower jewelry are a hot choice right now. Though perfect for Spring and Summer time, floral jewelry can be worn all year. Floral pins add a modern-retro touch to an outfit and can be attached to a jacket or a cardigan, as well as used to accessorize dresses, blouses, knitted tops, tunics, knitwear and waistcoats. However, possibilities do not end here! I love how Lindsay Price in Lipstick Jungle attaches her Alexis Bittar flower pin to a belt, creating a very feminine and sophisticated look. Some other options for wearing floral pins are as attached to a necklace, scarf or a handbag.

In my opinion, Alexis Bittar makes the most beautiful flower pins! His Amaryllis, Anemone and Begonia shaped floral pins are hand crafted from lucite. Each piece goes through several stages of carving, polishing, hand-painting, glazing and decorating with gold-plated elements and Swarovski crystals. Each piece is unique and is a true piece of art. These pins will make an incredible accessory that you can wear with different outfits all year long. They'd make a great holiday gift.
