to begin with...they are MY colors...and how perfect would they be...those luscious fall colors...adorning the ears...les sigh...oscar...you never disappoint...

fashion funnies: not bragging but...

I don't want to brag or make anybody jealous or anything,

but I can still fit into the earrings I wore in high school...



this funny email has been circulating quite a bit...and still...everytime i receive it...i laugh...

make it a fabulous weekend...

you had me at hello: down to there...

so what could stop me dead in my tracks? an awesome pair of shoes...a stylish handbag...throw in some vintage...or...some nice long dangling earrings...down to there...les sigh...

as i was perusing my april issue (yes...i'm behind) of california style...after all...i am a california girl through and through...this page...stopped me dead in my tracks...i mean really...how can you choose just one??

my favorite is the top right...after all diamonds are a girl's best friend...bulgari high jewelry earrings...i can tell you right now...without knowing the price...i know they are out of my budget...but a girl can dream...right?

second choice...the bottom right...ca & lou earrings...at saks fifth avenue
and third...for my running around town pair...i'm loving the bottom left...david yurman earrings...

hoop dreams...

roman women thread them with a single precious or semi-precious stone...pirates were known to wear just one....gypsies and fortune-tellers always seemed to display a set beneath their kerchiefs...

and now?

larger hoops go with the more casual look of summer and resort dressing...smaller hoops are more versatile...as easy at the office as they are at a party...the classics are done in gold or silver...either way...they are a great standby for day or evening...

and yes...hoops should be chosen in proportion to your face...and your neckline...want sexy? go for bigger & slimmer...want classic? go for smaller & chunkier...either way...hoops are an accessory staple...
