Trend Alert : Oversized Links and Color blocking

I am not sure how I feel about color blocking yet but I am over the moon for oversized links. Blame it on the 80s. According to Accessoriesmagazine.com, the trends for the Spring and Summer 2012 are color blocking and oversized links.

Accessory Personality: Bangles and Music

Ever noticed when wearing bangles that it sounds like music in the background? These Asian inspired bangles are just the right amount of bangles to make music and introduce you into a quiet room...lol.

Designer Tuesday: David Yurman

 On one of my many excursions abroad, I went to Barcelona, Spain and found this David Yurman inspired bracelet at a Barcelona market place. As shown in the pictures above and below. I seriously was not looking for anything that looked like a designer bracelet or inspired by a designer. When I go shopping, I typically look at the style and make of the bracelet and whether it is a good buy, especially as a souvenir for friends.

David Yurman is American designer of jewelry for men and women and is sold in approximately 18 David Yurman boutiques across 10 states.David Yurman began his trade as a sculpture, selling his designs in high school and at the early age of 16 was introduced to Cuban welder and sculptor Enesto Gonzales.

In 1982, David Yurman introduced his signature, a twisted helix cable bracelet with gemstones on its ends. Other notable collections include Silver Ice, the Buckle Collection (pictured below) and the X collection. His collection prices range from $450 to $32,000. Yeah, $32,000, that was not a typo.

To view more of David's collection, go to www.DavidYurman.com

So what do you think? Was my find a good buy?....

What is your Accessory Personality? ...Bohemian Chic

There are just some days I want to sling my bag on my back and keep it moving. You know the feeling when you want to be able to navigate the day with your hands free and be able to hold as many bags as possible without your wallet weighing you down as an extra bag. And that is what this bag accomplishes.

This bag is perfect for those shopping trips when on vacation and you have your negotiating nancy hat on, or hanging with friends for the day. Seriously, I picture myself with this bag on a trip in the jungle and ,WHOOSH, whipping out my bug spray or sunscreen. Or walking through the leather market in Florence, Italy, ready to shop till your wallet has battle scars....lol

The bag above would best be described as Bohemian Chic, because the Chic wearing this bag is definetely not wearing it out of convenience but because she is on a mission.

It may be found on our shopping site: http://www.accesuality.com/, for $30,in the handbags/fashion section and it is called: "Busy Bee".


Enjoy!

Hmmmmmmm, now what will I take a picture of first?

Who gone check me Boo?!?!

Time and Time again, when I go out with my friends, we always check out what the other person is wearing and not only because we like the outfit but because we want to make sure there isn't someone in our group that looks a hot mess! So what's up with these other girl friends that go out!? I have seen it all and wondered why some women don't tell their friends that the outfit DOES NOT go together OR that the outfit is just not for their body type. It makes me wonder that maybe the reason no one tells the friend that her outfit is socially challenged is because a) they told her already and she completely ignores her friend's advice, b) they picked her up and didn't see what she was wearing before she got outside, or c)they are some real mean friends and figure the worst she looks the better for them. Who knows??? But I think every girl needs a friend that would literally say:No, or go back and change, real quick! So the next time you go out and you ladies are checking each other out or looking in the mirror shout: "Who gonna check me Boo?!".

Clothes and shoes can be found on asos.com, and accessories can be found on accesuality.com

In honor of St. Patty's day and Spring, the outfit above is perfect for backyard parties or bar hopping with friends. I understand green would have been the color of choice for St. Patty's day but a diva never follows the crowd neither the trend, so wear a different pop of color instead. Also the chained cuff and silver triangle necklace can be worn to dress up this casual outfit and set you apart from the crowd of people out enjoying the night. The accessories may be found in the diva collection of Accesuality at www.accesuality.com

Trend Alert: Studded Glory

For 2012, I just have to talk about the new trend of studded bags, bracelets, rings and earrings. But let's start with handbags. Versace Spring 2012 sets the trend with a white gold studded bag (below) that retails for a whopping $3,214.

Now unless you're making dough like that, http://www.accesuality.com/ carries a similar bag in black (below), brown and yellow for $55! I just saved you over $3,000!!! and you can still be rocking the latest trend! Also the hobo version above for $60. You can thank me later.

These studded handbags are all the rave because it's like your bag is also wearing it's own accessory. No need to embellish or add anything extra to it, the bag already speaks for itself. This trend of course may be considered a fad but only to those that will only limit it to where, when and with who they wear the bag with.

A few suggestions, this bag can be rocked either on your first date with your babes or out and about with the girls. I rock mines to work (please, only the brave may attempt to).

XOXO

Awwwwwwww yeaahhhh.......Website Launches today!

Jump into Spring!!

So it is finally here and my sister and I have been working on this for quite some time. We decided to launch a site that sells unique and premium accessories. We got sick and tired of the cookie cutter accessories that were available today or accessories so expensive that you couldn't fathom spending your mortgage or rent money to have the latest fashions.

We researched and found suppliers that were willing to sell us premium and unique accessories at affordable prices so that we could pass those savings on to you. We are so dedicated to getting you the best accessories that we travel the world and bring them back to you. However, since our supplies are limited, if you see it get it before it is gone.

You may access our site at : http://www.accesuality.com/
Follow us on Twitter or like us on Facebook for special promotions and information on the latest trends, designers or products in store. We have a special promotion going on now once you add us to Facebook or Twitter. Like us and get the code!

Accesuality: What is your accessory personality?

Death to the large hoop earrings....

I am not sure if I will still be rocking this trend in the future. I wore these the other day around town and it was such a nuisance when I was trying on some cute dresses and tops. Hindsight is 20/20 but I'm thinking they are not good to wear for if you're going to scavenge for boutique or vintage finds. I literally kept taking them off and hanging them up on the hanger where the clothes belonged in the dressing room. Next time I am going to wear these bad boys when I am literally sitting for more than 3 hours, not doing anything. lol
