There are times where wearing a piece of designer jewelry is great. You can appreciate the beauty of someone else’s creation and enjoy the effect it creates in your ensemble … and basically move on. But what if YOU had a hand in the design of your piece? What if you could apply some creativity [...]

Oh, YOU GUYS. My love of stationery and paper knows no boundaries, but LOOK AT THESE! I found them in lettergirl’s etsy shop. Each of these (and others!) are handcrafted at her studio and available in self-inking or wood handled styles. She can even make one using your own handwriting. Neat. Never again have a [...]

I have to admit I’m sort of losing my mind over this whole line of jewelry. I stumbled upon Oliphant on Eddie Ross’ blog yesterday and I’ve been stalking the site ever since. I LOOOOOVE their use of color. And all the vintage nods in style are just slowly killing me in the best way [...]

It appears I am having a love affair with silk flower corsages of all types these days. This is the grandaddy of them all. I found this Blakegodbold Oversized Silk Corsage on the ASOS site as part of their clearance sale (HURRY!). It’s a lot of flower, I know, but it’s just so magnificent. I [...]

I will admit that this was a trend I approached with a raised eyebrow. Visions of street thugs and Rocky Balboa flashed through my head when a multi-knuckle and multi-finger ring was described.

Please meet, Maurice, Chloy, Howard and Pearly. Are they not the cutest? These little creatures are Swarovski crystal-encrusted 4GB USB drives that also double as charms.

I am forever looking for cool little gifts that are interesting and, well, different. And, as you know, I am a big fan of the vinyl decal. Really I’m a big fan of anything that has personality and snap, and nothing says snap like Jules looking at you from your laptop cover. I’m thinkin’ the [...]

Photo via ButterBoom Karl’s done it again. This tiny, PVC and faux-fur bag is smaller than your hand and at roughly $8,000 commands a price greater than an around the world airline ticket. Seemingly carved out of the most expensive glacier on the planet this sweet little bauble reflects his love of all things snow [...]

Well, it’s offically hurricane season here and today our fair city is enjoying the less than sexy “dirty” side of Hurricane Alex currently slamming through south Texas and Mexico. What this really means is chance to slap on some great wellies and be sure to have your umbrella handy. But, you know, after not seeing [...]

These jewels were sent in by the lovely Knighton, who y’all should follow IMMEDIATELY not only for her wit but her great inexpensive wine blog as well. Plus? She finds stuff like this ALL THE TIME. This makes getting organized and the basics in communication SO MUCH EASIER, doesn’t it? I see stocking stuffers and [...]
