Inside the January issue of SELF magazine, there is a Kate Beckinsale photo… what I noticed right away are those ultra-chic bangles she’s wearing! All the sparkling gems & gold were screaming for the warm & beautiful spring time!
The bangles are from the Skittle Collection by Gurhan. An investment piece for your luxe jewelry collection for sure! They look lovely on the arm stacked up… the more the better… if we can only afford so many of these!

Lately I’m falling hard for costume jewelry… they have distinct designs and colors especially the vintage fashion jewelry with exquisite, fancy details.
Case in point, this delicious floral crystal with white simulated pearl collar necklace ($350) from Carolee.com. Create your own trend with this necklace to take your look to the next level! I usually go for a laid back look (jeans & bomber jacket… ) with such a statement piece like this one for a casual elegance.

I also spotted a similar necklace (below) – wing and flower necklace that is only $29.99. A fun glam piece to add some drama – day or night.

My favorite accessories are big earrings. Size matters when it comes to earrings. LOL! I usually wear huge chandelier earrings for a night out. They are just so much fun that I find myself caressing them throughout the night.
I LOVE the antique/vintage style earrings like the ones Kate Moss is wearing. These huge Turkish earrings give her wardrobe a totally different feel… and not like the tiny ones, you can’t possibly miss them!
Big earrings don’t necessarily have to be heavy. There are many lightweight danglers available. I don’t recommend heavy earrings since they can stretch your earlobes and possibly cause irritation.
So, get your own statement earrings… have fun with them! How about these smashing silver Chandelier Coin Earrings? Aren’t they gorgeous?

Huge earrings were also a hit on the Spring 2009 RTW runway. Wow, some big earrings for sure!

It will be impossible not to notice when you wear one of these bold & fancy Octopus Rings by Roberto Cavalli! I admire the gold tentacles… bursting with radiant color & style! I prefer octopus tentacles over the snake design that we see quite often. Turquoise or amethyst. Yours for $335. Click on the image for a detailed view.
