CRYSTAL CLEAR

Sunglasses, one accessory I feel you can't have enough of. I love the transparency of the clear frames. Its a trend that seems to be very risk taking but also in a sense really safe because they are color-less and have a simplicity to them. To say the least, I AM OBSESSED!

FLOWER POWER

When everyone thinks of spring they think FLORAL. Now, I have blogged how black and white made a huge statement for Spring 2013 but we can't forget why we all love the beautiful colors and textures and flowers that bloom during this time. The accessories are collectively a few that I think would add femininity and a little bit of a risk when wearing. I do recommend wearing one piece at a time. You don't want to overflow on the whole hippie vibe, just a touch that differs you from the rest.​

Six Ways to Wear A Scarf

Such Glamour, that has gone unnoticed. A scarf can go a long way. My first pick would to go old Hollywood, as Kim is showing us. Trust me darling, you will be turning heads. The second option, would obviously be around the neck how most people wear them. My Third look, would be wrapped around the forehead, which makes it super hippie. The forth way could be getting a hobo bag and wrapping an expensive scarf around the handle, to give it a chic look. Sort of like the Lanvin piece I pulled. Fifth would be wearing it as a bathing suit cover. Lastly, try using your scarf as a belt to maybe cinch your waist when wearing a loose dress or shirt.

Take A Risk With The Turban

THE TURBAN

OBSESSED WITH THIS ACCESSORY. Hello! how gorgeous does Nicole look? This accessory can be bought in any color or material. It truly makes a statement. I love the indie chic look. Especially, when this look has been worn on royalty and has been around for years. Sophia Loren's look is more bold, more traditional. My picks,  can fit in your everyday sense of style. Enjoy it and don't be shy to rock one. If anyone has anything to say, tell them you feel amazing in it.

LIVING ON A PRAYER

ROCK CHIC ACCESSORIES

Celebrities, like Demi, Kourtney and Blake have been rocking this look for a while now. It's definitely an updated version of the originator Madonna.  I love how edgy it is. I know we are going into spring so the hat might be a little warm for spring but we have a few more weeks left of this frigid weather why not rock a fedora or a floppy hat. The Cross accessory is not a sin, so why not wear it.  I love the ring and the earrings. With this look the more the better. It's a woman's take on rock and roll.

BORN IN THE WRONG DECADE

​HIPPIE HEADBAND

I blog a lot about what I see on the runways and in the streets and what works for many people. Lately, I have been getting asked about my personal style. I think it's about time I tell my readers how obsessed I am with the 70's. You will see through out the next few weeks. From the music, the style and free spirit. The first peek into my 70's inspiration is known as the "hippie headband". I usually wear one everyday. My two new favorite picks for must have accessories are below. ​

EXPRESSION IN AN EARRING

Earrings! Like every accessory, everyone has there own take on them. I know that the hoop earring always stayed in style & now the feather earring is very in. A lot of my young readers raved about how crazy they are about feather earrings. I say which ever fits your personality best. Depending on mood and outfit, you can opt for any style. Me, for instance my earrings are usually vintage or vintage inspired.

IDEAL SET OF EARRINGS

Dear Readers, YOUR SUNGLASSES CAN NEVER BE TO BIG!

Tom Ford "Rhonda" Large Round Over sized Sunglasses.

I have blogged about how I am crazy about nude. Well, this goes for sunglasses as well.I love the oversize and vintage look. I think when going so large with the actual frame, the color should be subdued.

Steve Madden

color frames

If you're feeling bold and you're all for color. Steve madden has so many to choose from. Retail $50, yes I said it only $50.

Knuckle Nail Ring

Tough as nails!...I love a statement piece of jewerly. With this ring you cant go wrong. To the tomboy all the way to the good girl with an edge this ring will be around for a whie.

The Vibrant Briefcase

Structured Cross Body

To all my ladies who love a huge bag, I think the briefcase is so GORG right now. Hermes does this in such a classic way but not everyone has the price tag of 20,000. Yes, I said it 20,000. My alternative was the MK crocodile skin bag price tag at $795. I have it myself and can honestly say I absolutely love it. The typical hobo or huge work bag can be such a drag. Why not spice up your outfit with a beautiful looking briefcase? With this look though, make sure you stick to beautiful hardware and great texture. So it does not seem as if you're going to an office meeting.

Chunky Platform

THE "LITA", what the genius of the platform himself calls it. Jeffrey Campbell known for his higher than life platforms could not be more hotter right now. I own a pair myself. COMFORT, yes comfort hard to believe but I had to have them!
