For the bohemian in me

Favorite color? Check.
A little bit of shimmer? Check.

I think I’m totally in love with this one from Milly.

Darling! Where’ve you been all my life?

New jewelry is in at JCrew. This bracelet in metallic blush, especially, caught my eye. More and more, I’m attracted to these pale, pretty colors.

Inspirational Makeup

Anne Hathaway is looking even more fabulous than usual in this photo. I can’t remember if this was the SAG awards? Or maybe some fashion event? Either way, she’s stunning.

And Drew Barrymore’s overall look from the SAGs is too cute. I love her messy updo and her soft makeup. And the Monique L’Huillier gown is one of my favorites from the recent awards season.

Dior

I’m bowled over by the gorgeousness at Dior. If only…

Quite possibly my favorite – but I think it’s because I’m blonde and I think there’s nothing prettier than a blonde in pale yellow.

Lovely stuff from Reem Acra.

Art Deco by CCSkye

Coco+Kelley talked about these pretty Art Deco-inspired bangles the other day, and I had never heard of the designer, CCSkye. While most of it is a little too punk/trendy for me, the Art Deco pieces are truly unique. It’s those glamourous baguette crystals — they transform anything sparkly into a whole other level of fabulousness.

Uber-chic, and sure to dress up the simplest of tank tops and skinny jeans.

Attainable Statement

If you’re looking for a striking piece of jewelry at a reasonable pricepoint, this might be for you.

By a line called Sequin over at my jewelry fave Charm & Chain, these chain links are formed from loads of individual turquoise glass beads. This is the piece that is guaranteed to turn any basic outfit from blah to out-of-control fabulous. At $60, it’s not an out-of-control price, either.

Splendid Gifts

I am a total Splendid devotee. Look no further for someone who adores Splendid. Anyway, I was surfing their site the other day, and they’ve got some fun gifts right now.

For men, I love these striped rugby tees. Their thermal weave is so soft, and unlike any other thermal I’ve felt. You can wash it over and over, and it still looks as good as new.

Yay for leggings! And even better, a 3-pack in a cute matching bag! (Shhh — looking for a deal? Search for Splendid leggings on eBay. I got mine for $20).

Here’s another great set – a 3 pack of their thermal henleys. I’m dying. These are TOO fun, and it’s hard to say which is the best color combination. They’re both so cute!

The soft colors and subtle shimmer of the Lurex rugby kimono cardigan make this so chic.

I also love the Splendid Littles, their kids’ line. The girls’ stuff is adorable, and the boys line is perfect. Not too “trucks-and-dinosaurs” if you know what I mean. I loved dressing Jude in their pajamas when he was a baby, and I would’ve been thrilled to get this 3-piece gift.

Of course, there’s all of their gorgeous cardigans and super-soft modal tees, too — get shopping!

New to Me: Tucker

Have you heard of the line called Tucker? It’s new to me. I caught a glimpse of it over at Piperlime, who is now carrying apparel in addition to their fun handbag-and-shoes shtick. However, I am now sad because when I went back to blog about this amazing blouse they had, it is, I guess, sold out. It does come in other colors, though, although the one pictured here from their header was my favorite. There’s also a gorgeous dress in a similar cut, albeit frumpy-patterned fabric.

But wait! I just googled them, and ShopBop carries them too. I’m dying – that print comes in a dress too! TOO CUTE!
