Happy Friday! I am very happy to announce an exciting giveaway from Lindsay’s Necklaces!!!  These beautiful, handmade necklaces are more then just a fashionable piece of jewelry, there is an inspirational story behind them.  Click HERE to read how the idea behind these gorgeous, hand crafted necklaces was born.  Special thanks to Lindsay for sponsoring this giveaway, and giving one of my loyal followers a chance to own this chic, leopard print necklace!!

As my readers know, I LOVE animal print!!  This necklace is great because it’s bold, but neutral at the same time.  I decided to pair it with bright yellow to welcome in Spring. (Any day now NYC!!)

Dreaming of warmer days….My Miami Photos!!!!

MiamiI finally had a chance to gather together my photos from my recent trip to Miami.  The weekend was incredible, and the occasian was my best friend Debbie’s bachlorette weekend. We went to South Beach, and the weather, food, and beach was amazing. With the tempeture being so insanely cold in NYC lately, these photos definitely keep me dreaming of warmer days! The thing I love about South Beach is that you can’t wear enough bright neon colors, metallics, or animal prints. “The bolder….the better” is always my motto while there. As you can see from the photos, my friends don’t shy away from color either.   I hope you enjoy the photos!!! Try the Miami look with the links below!

Trending for Spring: Bright and Colorful Statement Jewelry

Hot Jewel encrusted items for Spring

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am jewelry obsessed. No outfit feels complete for me without a eye catching bracelet, or statement making necklace.  You can totally update your look, or make an old dress feel new again with the right accessories.  With Spring coming, (soon I hope!), I am seeing more and more jewel centered pieces.  I love the organic feel of a huge stone ring, or a bold necklace with multicolored stones.  It makes me think of the warmer weather, and definitely brightens my mood.  I have put together a collection of current items that I am lusting after.  I recently discovered Katie Dean Jewelry, and I have included some of her gorgeous creations on this list.  I love her use of different shapes and colors in her pieces, and I especially love that most of her bracelets are stackable. Links to purchase each item are below. Which are your favorite?
XOXOXO
