Right now, I’m coveting:

  • Stingray-print pumps in a lovely shade of blue
  • Estee Lauder’s spring nail polish collection (I already own the blue one)
  • Serious fabric in candy colors, like this Milly dress
  • Elephant glasses
  • A gold stapler
  • The interesting cut of this blue topaz ring by Katie Rowland

Review: Stella Valle Earrings

January 23, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

Let’s get this out of the way right now: I love these earrings. I first learned of Stella Valle earlier this month and admired the brand’s mix of feminine details with strong, masculine elements. This pair of earrings showcases the strong Art Deco influence of its latest collection. 

The earrings retail for $125 and are definitely worth the investment. They’re well made and each of the earrings are adorned with 11 attention-grabbing, rhinestone baguettes.

One word of warning: the earrings are heavy. I actually switched out the standard earring back in favor of a plastic disc backing to distribute the weight evenly and prevent drooping. With that simple switch, they’re comfortable for all-day wear. (One of my irrational fears is becoming an old woman with drooping earlobes. Given how much I love big earrings, it’s a very real concern!) 

You can learn a bit more about the brand here, where you’ll also find details for a giveaway!

Outfitted

January 21, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

Saturday was unseasonably warm and I took full advantage of the 40-degree weather with spring accessories: my favorite Kate Spade shoes and a new J.Crew necklace. I was unsure about this necklace when it first arrived because the color is much brighter in person than it appears in the stock photo. It has been a bit of a styling challenge, but I love how it looks with mint accessories.

I painted my nails last night, but I can’t wait to use the new Estee Lauder polish I picked up a few hours ago. It’s the most lovely shade of robin’s egg blue. Have a wonderful weekend!

Right now, I’m coveting:

  • An oversized gold lamp would make an elegant statement piece in an entryway
  • A pair of Tory Burch perforated sandals in a lovely shade of terracotta
  • A vibrant rug that’s also affordable
  • Jewelry by Julie Vos – I’d love to wear her beachy pieces on our next seaside vacation (this necklace is also stunning)
  • Name your own nail polish makes for a fun bridal shower favor
  • Whistles’ sleek lookbook, especially that striped dress
  • A pair of tweezers in glamorous gold

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.

Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Hal Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Halloween spirit. While it claims to be the most haunted place in Europe and is dubbed the city of a thousand ghosts, we only encountered the wire-mesh sculptures of Ghosts in the Gardens (@the_york_bid) and the family of souvenir ghosts I brought home from @yorkghostmerchants.
