Shadowplay

Islands Necklace, $388

This one will have to be filed under the "Look, but Don't Touch" category. Unless, that is, you have $300+ to spend on one necklace. One hauntingly beautiful, etheral, feather-light necklace. Until that day, I'll have to settle with drooling on my keyboard or learning how to knit like Shadowplay's designer. I won't hold my breath.

Septemberist Necklace, $455

Harkness Necklace, $290

On My Wish List...

Vine-Ripened Earrings in Purple, $32

I was browsing through Anthropologie's collection of earrings the other day in search of a pair to give, but instead, I found a lot that I wanted to get! And the best thing about them? The prices are not too shabby.

Scalloped Crystal Earrings, $28

Muted Light Earrings in Yellow, $32

Gilded Berries Earrings, $32

Gifted Bow Posts, $22

UnZipped

I'm in love with all of the tough-but-not zipper details I'm seeing everywhere. Designers are putting lengths of zipper in all of the places they used to put trim. That's thinking outside the box...

Punk up your package with Zipper Tape @ Walker Art.

Zipper Rose Cuff by Adia Kibur.

Rosette Platforms from Topshop.

Zipper Pin @ Walker Art.

I love how the zipper detail makes the sleeves hold their shape. Pretty and practical!

Find Me Something...

It's hot outside and I feel yucky and I just want to find something pretty...

Pretty.

Pretty.

Pretty.

From top: Triple Threat Headband, $38; Night Out Necklace, $45; Ella Rose Belt, $35. All accessories are from Old Soul, New Heart.

Agate-a-Ga-Ga

With the extreme heat of Houston summers, everything here is turning brown. I'm dying for a bit of color. That's why I'm so drawn to agate accessories. Aren't they gorgeous?

Agate Necklaces by Jennifer Fisher

Coaster Set available at High Fashion Home, $59

BFF's 4-eva!

Pick Up Sticks Necklace by The Docent, $105

Quick! What does this necklace remind you of? If you said "Those friendship bracelets I used to make in elementary school!!!"... Bingo! Is this cool again? Are we doing this? Because I will bust out my collection of embroidery floss and get to twisting!

Yesterday, I found these on Apartment 34:

by For You, For Me via Etsy

Oh, it is on (like Donkey Kong).

P.S. After I found those two necklaces, I wanted to see if I still had to bracelet making skills...

Now I know. That skill is permenantly implanted in my brain. Awesome.

So Charming

Pile it on! Get your hands on them at Generate Design

It's about time! I can't think of a more perfect designer to create dainty 18 karat gold charms than the legendary Tord Boontje! Here's the cool part- the charms are packaged in three's. Once they're in your greedy little hands, you can do anything you desire with them. Turn them into earrings, get all four sets and make a killer necklace, or just wear one at a time. And, at only $39 per set, they make a great gift for that design junkie friend of yours (i.e. me).

From left: Package One, Three, Four, and Two and a stylish serving suggestion.

This is more my style. Package Two is my favorite. The deer reminds me of the ones I see on morning runs when the weather is cooler.

Head Games

Why is it that we so often neglect our noggins? Not necessarily what we put in them, but what we put on them. Fancy up your head a bit next time you go out. Your hair will appreciate it.

Eniko Headband by Erin Barr, $40

No. 12 by Ban.do, $130

Speak Low Headband by Bambako, $32

Tessa Headband in Nuclear Explosion by Little Von Loo, $44

I Love the 80's: Neon

To kick off my homage to the resurgence of all things 80's (gasp!), I've collected a few neon treasures that I'd love to sport. I'm not going full on bright with an outfit of neon Units (oh, yeah! Remember those?!), but I could rock a neon necklace with a black dress. The 80's is back... take it in small doses.

Clockwise from top left: Tom Binns "Dumont Noir Fluorescent Earrings", $220; J. Crew "Neon Patent Capri Sandals" in Neon Orange, $39.50; Givenchy Necklace (coming to Macy's); Dannijo "Collage Ring" in Electric Pink, $190.

Key To My <3

I love the new Tiffany & Co. keys collection. They're exquisite for sure. But the smallest one is 250 bucks, and that's a little beyond my budget right now. I might not be able to afford diamonds, but I can afford Etsy. Going with the skeleton key theme, I found several cute necklaces with vintage style that will satisfy my need for keys...

Gold Key Necklace from Cherry Street Jewelry, $26.

This one's my favorite! Skeleton Key & Aventurine Necklace from Jeweled Ambrosia, $26.

Key To My Heart Necklace from Rock Paper Silver, $24.

Summer Romance Vintage Key Necklace from SSSJ, $22.
