Treasure Tuesdays: Keep It Indie

KittenCouture — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 05:00:00 -0700

Many of my most treasured pieces were not mass market items but those that were one of a kind or made from a limited production. If you have held a conversation with me, read my blogs or had me email you about your products, you know how much I believe in supporting indies as I feel that they aren't making something that they believe will be on trend but what they are passionate about! I want to be able to wear these passion filled pieces that are from Designing Diva! I love the fact that you can still see hammered look that is reflected in the pieces. I love the pops of color and the time taken to think about comfort in terms of her sterling silver rings that can be adjusted for maximum fit! Enjoy these pieces and then visiting Designing Diva in order to see other fab items for yourself and to gift to others!

Fashionable Fridays: K. Amato is Always an Option

I don't like to play favorites in some things but when it comes to my accessories, all bets are off. I have my go to pieces that I wear without even thinking about it and although I try a number of items - it's not an instant access into my tried and true collection. This is a hard decision and one that can't be taken lightly. You want pieces that scream you without suggesting that you were trying to hard when putting everything together. So when deciding upon new jewelry, I like to go with that which has a lot of style and I have to say that K. Amato is one of those designers.

No matter what piece you're looking at you get the notion that the pieces are classic while also being on trend. This isn't exactly an easy balance to strike but you will find it here! One of my favorites is The Chicago. Those of you who know me and have been out with me know that I am a sterling silver girl at heart. But there is something about this Oval Filagree piece that brings out your inner regal sensabilities and makes you want to pair it with cowl neck boucle sweaters, tunics paired over leggings and so much more as we go into the fall. At the same time, it's also perfect for the summer or any vacation spot. Ah The Chicago with all its Jazz, it just might be one of the tried and true that you've been looking for. Take some time to check out more pieces to fill up your jewelry case!

Wearable Wednesday: Single Life Can Be Celebrated Too

Terrence Howard, Naomi Campbell and various members from the cast of High School Musical and Heros have something in common! They are all members of the Singelringen community. Many of us are familiar with those that have recently become engaged or married. It's easy to tell as we can look at the rings to see what phase of their life that they have shifted to but what about those that are single? Singelringen was created as an answer to what is going on with those that have yet to be married.

This ring has blue acrylic that wraps around the sterling silver ring and exposes a small portion of it in a crescent shape. This crescent shape can be worn to face others stating that the person wearing it is open to love while others choose to wear it inward to show that they are not open to this whether they may not be interested or involved with someone. As I am involved with someone, I wear my crescent closer to my heart signifying that I am already in a relationship. Singelringen are unisex and many wear them on the right hand but you can choose or you can place it on a chain! In addition, there is a unique number within your ring that allows you to log on to the website and to register to link up with others in this community. Being single by those that join this site, is seen as a period in life that this concept is embraced. Although we may not be prepared or be ready for that next step, we can enjoy the benefits of looking, searching or being with someone that means a great deal to us. In addition to being a great concept, I enjoy wearing this ring because I think it looks cute and I love how light and simple it looks.
