more is more

continuing my metallic trend, this post is dedicated to gold. i love anything shiny, but i especially love gold. it's so luxurious, grand and down right classy. it's both modern and traditional.

as the weather in new york is starting to cool down, i'm forced to add more layers to my outfits. thus, i am transferring this same mentality to my jewelry regimen. my tip: place a pretty bowl filled with baubbles next to where you keep your keys. thus, you are always accessorized! no excuses.

check out Gallery Atlantic for some baubble bling! 

trend alert: metallics

metallic, specifically silver is going to be huge this fall. so many silver/metallic jeans are out right now, but i like my metallics more in my accessories. i think more is more when it comes to layering accessories. but then again, i do occasionally do like to look like a disco ball. 

i am one of Gallery Atlantic's new blogger stylist! so happy to be part of the team! below are some of my top picks incorporating the metallic trend. i tend to fluctuate between being really girly and pretending to be hard core. hence the mix of sequins and swords. 

1. sophia silver sword pedant necklace  2. madagascar cuff  3. karina silver dagger earrings

4. egypt three silver ring set  5. sunset boulevard cuff  6. silver antler cuff

marni x H&M

ok, back in 2009, designer collaborations were the tits. now i think they are personally overplayed and make the designers less aspirational. plus, these collaborations are often translated to poor construction and horrible fabric choices. with that said, i am normally a marni fanatic. i am lucky enough to own one marni bag and i love it so much. the new h&m collaboration (launches march 8) will not have me stalking h&m slash ebay since i will not stand in line for ridiculous amounts of time. i think i have ADD.

the only pieces i would buy are the following jewelry pieces:
