Gold Rush

I am SO obsessed with gold accessories these days. Fad or fashion?

-MMS studded bottom satchel (own it - love it - TJ Maxx)
-Champagne transformer iphone case (word of warning: it's aluminum and kills your signal, but chis as hell)
-Starbucks electroplate gold mug (30% off right NOW)
-Kenneth Cole gold multi-chain toggle bracelet
-gold paper clips, Acco
-spray painted bulletin board

It's My Birthday!

I wish I could share some cake and champagne with you all! But you'll have to settle for pictures *sigh*

Green and Gold Necklace

Via PearlandShine

This thing is all over the blogosphere but not a designer name for me to share with you in sight. Go figure. But it's marvelous anyway so it's making an appearance here. And if anyone knows who makes this or where it's available, leave a comment!

Sparkly Romper

Via MonicaRose

I adore this look. How cute and innovative. The glittery romper is fantastic but that sleeveless cape/blazer/cloak is perfect for some trendy warmth. The jumper is by Son Jung Wan and the cape is Cameo. Love!

Smokey Gold Eye

I love gold glitter for eyelids. It's festive and fun and, if you do it right, not at all obnoxious. I would say that the key is to keep it only on the lid and not go up to the brow bone with the shimmers, which is actually a good rule of thumb, but if you have deep set eyes like me, you know that it will never ever get seen just on the lid. So it depends on the look and style you're going for. Smokey eyes with gold is nice because it softens the drama of a full-on smokey eye and makes it a little more playful. I like Give Me Gold by Maybelline and Revlon Illuminance Cream in Precious Metals. I believe the gold pictured above is MAC.

Designer Dog Collars

If you're dressed to the nines, there's really no reason your dog shouldn't be too. These glittery, sparkly leather dog collars with gold colored hardware are really quite eye-catching. I'm tempted to buy a small for myself and wear it as a bracelet.  Available at DesignerDoggieCollars for $20.
