After purchasing a Tory Burch necklace* and a Karen Hsiang ring in December, I need to hold off on adding another piece to my jewelry box. However, I’m bookmarking this gorgeous ring for when the urge strikes. I can’t resist an unconventional way to wear pearls.
*I ordered it through Net-a-Porter for 70% off, but it arrived badly damaged. They were able to locate another one through their Asian store. Hopefully the new one arrives safely from Hong Kong.
Based in NYC, jewelry designer Sarah Magid has 15 years of experience designing for brands like Henri Bendel, Coach, J.Crew, and Etienne Aigner—but I think we can all be grateful that she eventually branched out on her own. She masterfully mixes brightly colored stones with sculptural metalwork to create pieces that can best be described as art. (Heck, I’m just as crazy for those pink crazy lace studs as I am for the larger jewels.)

If I really had to edit my wishlist for spring and summer, this would be it: simple silhouettes in neutral colors with unexpected accessories. (Although, I’m also itching for a Clover Canyon dress this spring. The bold patterns are just too good.)

I hope you had a wonderful evening of champagne toasts with your loved ones! Dave and I cozied up on the couch with the cat, Thai food and plenty of bubbly. In short, the perfect way to start a new year.
And what would a New Year’s post be without a list of resolutions for 2014? This year, I will:
I can’t believe another year has passed! Here are a few of my favorite snapshots from the last month of 2013:
