Lost?

Living in a city is great when you know it inside and out- but every once in a while I get lost. Especially when it's the holidays you find yourself running around and forget where the perfect little gift shop is. I think I am also drawn to this piece because of my love of the sea. Either way kudos to LeeAnn Herreid who creates all the wonderful pieces at Individual Icons.

Brrr.

It's freezing in Chicago today. Snowed a little bit yesterday. Boo. Then there is Lizzie Fortunato's jewelry... just warms me right up. This is the La Punta.

It's actually a poker chip from Uraguay. I just love the ships wheel.

Keep warm!

Zip me Up!

I've been on quite the Arrested Development kick. Since it's Friday I thought I would honor this amazing show with this fabulous necklace by Miss Bibi. Or maybe you'll like Tatty Devine's better. Now I might be going on a tangent with zippers but remember Jeffrey Sebelia's signature piece from the Project Runway finale? I love the way he used zippers in this...

So incredibly sexy

I love Charlize... but take a gander at the Breil Milano necklace from the Soffio collection. Those are rose gold nuggets. In the lastest Harpers there is an ad and she's wearing them with a deep v neck dress... very sexy!

Victory

I was very privileged to be able to be in Grant Park last night celebrating Obama's victory with my good friends and boyfriend. I feel very inspired by his words and am looking forward to Change. I will also mention that we got to not only meet but high five some other amazing people.

This wreath is from Dogeared.

I love the organic composition of this wreath and would love to see it hanging on my front door. It's hard to believe that it's from Dogeared! They are famous for simple statement necklaces on gold and silver. They also just signed a deal with Nordstrom!I hope someday my jewelry to someday share the fame of this fabulous company.

Oh La La.

Check out this vintage blue diamond earrings by Tiffany and Co. The deep blue is so sexy! I also love how they are set with just 4 posts making it all about the stone. They're definitely on my fantasy Christmas list.
