This Spain-based retailer's designs are right in tune with how I love to dress; clean, modern lines with special little details, and interesting color combinations and patterns, that keep them from looking too traditional.

Elaborate Simplicity
I love how the successful balance between the elaborate nature of these pieces with the nude, minimalist clothing really lets the accessories shine.

Gotta Have It!
These Colorblock Tights by MeMoi are so perfect. With these, it'll kinda look like I'm wearing those damned impractical thigh high socks that are all the rage, while still maintaining my dignity in public by not having to stop and pull them up every 5 seconds.

Fall Feeling
Something about these two photos make me want to put on some "grandpa pants" a comfy form fitting sweater and some interesting accessories. Note the argyle socks in the first pic and the fedora and animal print clutch in the second. DIVINE!

The Well Accessorized Woman
Midge from the blog Wasted Wardrobe took a dress from H&M and infused it with loads of personality via accessories. The bright pink vintage necklace is gorgeous against the taupe while the belt gives the dress shape. Her shoes are without a doubt fabulous on their own, but also work on another level, by pulling in tones from the belt and dress. The addition of the hat is just the bit of sass the outfit needs to keep it from being too ladylike.

Caring For Your Fashion Jewelry
Fashion jewelry, also referred to as costume jewelry is a fun and inexpensive way to express your individual style. It allows for a much greater variety of bolder, attention grabbing styles and colors that can be mixed and matched according to your mood or wardrobe.
Although fashion jewelry doesn't require much of an investment, it is still important to get the most bang for your buck by taking proper care of your costume jewelry by following a few simple steps:
- NEVER allow fashion jewelry to come in contact with oils, soaps, perfumes, or any harsh chemicals which can fade or even ruin the item.
- ALWAYS remove jewelry before sports, swimming, exercising, washing hands, showering, cleaning, doing laundry, or applying lotions or creams.
- NEVER store jewelry wet. Always dry with a soft cloth before storing.
- When cleaning, be gentle! Use a soft toothbrush and jewelry cleaner that specifically states that it is safe for costume jewelry. Make sure it does not contain acid, alcohol, or ammonia. Only use jewelry cleaner as directed. DO NOT over scrub.
- Store jewelry in a plastic ziploc bag or soft jewelry pouch away from other objects and jewelry items to avoid scratching.
- Store jewelry in a clean, dry, cool, not cold place away from heat and dust.
- Use a jewelry cloth for buffing.
- Regularly check for loose stones.

ooh! I Love...
this blouse from forever 21's line, love 21, it sells for $24.80. The color, the shoulder detail, and the cut make it just my kind of sophisticated funk. Perfect with jeans and a cool pair of earrings, like the Tangled Web Hoop Earrings we just got in at oohboutique.com which sell for $8.00.Thursday, June 17, 2010

Words of Wisdom
"Sometimes I think our society needs one big collective hobby. Just a group activity to calm our nerves. We're all so angry. Seriously, what do we have to be so angry about? My supermarket sells eight different kinds of salsa." -John Devore
