Classic pearls!
Gorgeous turquoise!
Vintage everything!
Vintage pieces come to life with a little sprigs of newness! Mix bright with darker plaids, add a sparkle of charm to a plain ballet flat by making shoe clips from vintage clip earrings!
Add silver sequins to houndstooth, cashmere cardi to mod-print skirt!!
Choices are infinite!
{style inspirations, think JCrew & Anthropologie!}

I love this necklace from one of the most talented, Swedish jewelry designers of our time, Gerda Lynggaard!
Known for turning natural materials into large, wearable masterpieces, The Monies Copenhagen Collection has been around since 1973 & pieces from the 70s & 80s are rare and hugely popular!

Collecting vintage jewelry is a BIG passion of mine! Genius design & construction are what I look for, and the nostalgia & exclusivity of a piece makes it even more special!
Oh, December! You carry so many emotions....the holidays, the end of another year, the stress of the holidays!
What will we do to stay calm? The spiked eggnog & over indulgence of cocktails are just not enough!
Let's start with a list of three little things to keep down holiday hysteria....free, tiny indulgences....
1. Cosmetic counters are your friend! Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, Neiman Marcus....the list goes on!
Schedule an appointment, go sit & enjoy! You may learn a new thing or two, and it will cost you nothing!
I suggest three things! Make sure to call in advance, go alone & let a professional make the call!
If you don't like, you can always remove!
2. In the Closet, GO!
You probably have a million new looks in there! Remember when you were six, frolicking in Mom's closet & making up outfits....you can still do this! You can! Grab a girlfriend or two! Swap clothes & accessories! {Champagne optional & donate the no longer liked!}
3. Quiet time....it's free! Outsmart your smartphone by turning it off. Give the iPad a rest!
Shut it down! Turn off & Tune out! If you can try it for a day!
Great! If you are a junkie, put aside a few hours....seek help in the new year!
Happy Calm!

This holiday season get ready with style by avoiding the uncomplicated!
1. Think fresh dewy face with a bright lip.
2. A dress that is pulled on with ease.
3. Black or bright tights give your outfit an urban edge.
4. Gorgeous textures, and rich colors add just enough dimension & contrast.
5. Most importantly, be comfortable & be yourself!
Happy, Happy!
Enjoy!
