Gorgeous Maya Handbag!

I ran into this lovely couple over the weekend and the woman had the most beautiful bag!!! I just had to take a picture of it. Its by Maya and its just breathtaking! She bought it at a annual crafts fair in NY and I must go to next years!

Take a look! : )

Beautiful details and get this: the shoulder strap comes off and can be worn as a necklace!

Now that’s how you multitask in fashion!

“Animal House”! I Love Erica Klein Jewelry!!

Hi All!

I had the awesome pleasure of meeting fab jewelry designer Erica Klein while she was hosting  a trunk show at Henri Bendel! (I also met her mother who is quite lovely!) I was immediately drawn to Erica’s fun use of animals in her line. I hadn’t seen anything like it and I knew I had to feature her on my blog! And I love the fact that she makes it all by hand! What a talented chick! Erica launched her collection 6 months ago.  It has gotten rave reviews and has been featured in Ocean Drive Magazine, The New York Times and Time Out New York!

I love introducing my fans and viewers to hot new jewelry! Take a look!

Monkeys and Leopards and Horses!!! Oh My!!

wearing the bulldog, leopard and horse necklaces!

Mixing gold and silver metals while layering is one of my fav trends right now!

very chic!

Just monkeying around in the monkey necklace!

This is a super fun piece!! It makes you smile : )

The baby owl necklace!

Owls are the hottest jewelry accessory right now!

(I will do a post of my fav owl pieces!)

leopard necklace : )

Fierce!


My lil horsie! What a fab necklace!

wearing the Buddha bracelet, ram cuff and lion door knocker ring!

The ram cuff has been featured in The New York Times and Time Out New York!

and the lion door knocker ring has a mini door knocker that makes a fun jingle sound when it moves : )

And the piece that started all the excitement: the super adorable monkey bracelet!

LOVE!

And just lil ole me:
