DYS in Accessories — December 25th, 2008
I’m not an avid fan of Nicole Ritchie, but I have to admit that since her weight loss (right after she starred on The Simple Life with Paris Hilton), and her dramatic fashion transformation (thanks to Rachel Zoe), her style becomes part of our daily watch list. I definitely like the way she pulls off her jewelries, who could forget her infamous CC Skye leather on golden chain bracelets? Myself, I felt in love with them, they remind me of the gold chains on Chanel handbags, and I bought a stack of cheap lookalikes from Delia’s ;p
House of Harlow 1960 is Nicole Ritchie’s jewelry collection, available online at Shopkitson.com. The collection is mainly influenced by Nicole’s love of the sixties and seventies era, thus the year “1960″ on her label came from, while “Harlow” is obviously the name of her daughter. Her debut 35-piece collection is a combination of tribal, gypsy, and bohemian-influenced accessories. With a friendly price range from $30 to $150, House of Harlow 1960 is targeted to teens and women in their 30s. Click here to see the collection.

Accessories play a major role this season, from hair clips, belt buckles, bangles, oversized clutches to necklaces. They’re big, oversized, whimsical and definitely making a statement to your whole look. With the latest influences of eclectic art, hippie revival and tribal trend, among a few, have somehow contributed to this whole accessory trend. One of the key pieces of this trend is necklace. Over the top necklaces have been seen on the runways since last Fall 2007 and we keep on seeing them on the latest runways of Spring and Fall 08, from Marni, Missoni, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, Philip Lim to Dries Van Noten. So what to expect from this statement necklace trend? They definitely look great on the catwalks and magazine editorials, but what about the real way?

Mir@cle in Accessories — February 27th, 2008

Here comes the new jewelry trends for 2008. This year, one-of-a-kind chunky cocktail rings with deep and bright color are more appealing than shiny bling jewelry. The more exotic the better!!
..go ahead and hunt down the exotic animal or ethnic design from oriental to Egyptian elements. Don’t hesitate to show how unique you are with your ethnic design jewelry with bold color.
Bangles and cuffs which can be worn at the wrist or on the upper arm will be a big hit too. It comes in variety of colors and materials, from chunky silver, gold, lucite or wood with, again, exotic design.
So, what do you think? Are you going to hunt this exotic jewelries down are you just going to stick with the basic when it comes to jewelry?…;)
