Mixing It With Grey

Lately I've been really into experimenting with grey, I used to think that it was a pretty boring color, but it really has a huge potential. You can match grey with yellow, purple and bright green for a really refreshing and fun look, go more traditional with white or try grey on grey like I did. This look really came out great because of the mixing between the shades of grey and the added visual interest from the print on the blouse. The necklace was the key finishing ingredient, it added a huge tribal flair that tied in perfectly with the blouse. Grey no longer is a boring color in my book and it's ability to be mixed with a variety of colors makes it perfect for every season. Hope you liked this look!

Let me know!

Wearable Art- Statement Necklaces

With the Christmas season officially in sight the party invitations begin to roll. Unless you have an infinite wardrobe you must repeat some dresses; be it last Christmas party or the Christmas before that. Get your inner stylist out! The trick is to change it up and that’s where the statement necklaces come in hand and the closet staple, a basic timeless dress.

A statement necklace can make last year dress this year’s “new” dress. A glorious gold necklace can make any LBD a stunning LBD; be it completely gold with a hammered finish or with crystals or gems. A red dress could look marvelous with various lengthy necklaces, especially ones with a Turkish flair from the Bazaar and a green dress would look spectacular with a short necklace full of colorful semiprecious jewels.

The best thing? You don’t have to break the bank for this. Here I leave you with some of my personal necklaces & other that I just love!
