Hello, Dear: Vera Meat Ring
Hello, Dear
Don't know why, but I'm inherantly drawn to anything with twee little animals on them. Bonus points if they're gold.
Vera Meat is a cray jewelry designer who makes gold and silv little baubles in the shape of extraordinary items- little animals, bones, people- you name it. They just sit atop your fingee and make you smile all day.
This deer looks like my dog.
Vera Meat, $48.
Candy? Necklace: Tory Burch Perez Diagonal Bead Rosary Necklace
Candy? Necklace
I am always drawn to accessories that look like I might be able to eat them. Don't you just want to suck on this Tory Burch Perez Diagonal Bead Rosary Necklace thing?
The juicy pink and red beads are perfect with everything in my wardrobe (black and white clothing) and look like they came out of a seaside gumball machine (in a good way). It would look equally as fab with an evening gown as it would with a tank.
I wonder if it jingles. I hope it does.
Tory Burch, $295.
OBSTCL Course: Steve Madden's OBSTCL-S Black Studded Platforms
OBSTCL Course
I was on my way home the other day, and happened to walk by a Steve Madden store. These were in the window.
I'd vowed NOT (absolutely not) to shop that week, as I'd had a few raucuous dinners recently and was a little over budge on the weekly spending. But needless to say, I was on an obstacle course of a mall wing (see where I'm going with this?) and these little jerks (Steve Madden's OBSTCL-S platforms) stopped me in my tracks.
I stopped, I tried on, I bought. Sorry I'm not sorry.
They look lethal because they are lethal. They make every outfit fierce.
Steve Madden, $149.
Wild & Crazy Pants: TopShop's Morph Native Joggers
Wild & Crazy Pants
Yes, these kind of look like those pants the camp counselors wore on Nickelodeon's Wild & Crazy Kids in 1991.
But these are silky smooth and fun!
I have been obsessed with the whole "silk PJ pants worn in real life" thing that began recently in fashion mags and on blogs, but have been scared. I always felt like I was just wearing PJs, though. Until I found this pair- I don't know why heinous orange and grey silk trousers finally made me go for it, but I bit the bullet. Another one of those "so bad it's good" moments.
I love them with my spike platforms, a black tank top and tons of jewelry. Yes. To dinner. I feel like I'm in bed, at dinner.
TopShop, $70.
SSSSSShoes: Zara's Studded Sandals
SSSSSShoes.
It's such a cliche to say I'm obsessed with shoes. So I won't say it.
But Zara has the best selection of $50-$150 shoes in the world. And even though Zara isn't in AZ yet, lucky Americans can now buy them (and anything else the retailer sells) right online! Aren't these studded sandals fantastic?
Zara, $129.
