YUMMY ITEM OF THE DAY: ERICKSON BEAMON PING PONG BANGLE.

THE SQUARE BIZ.

Square shape bracelets are nothing new to the accessory scene, but they have been seen more recently on the arms of several celebs this year. I came across this square shaped bangle by Erickson Beamon and i loved it. I loved the jeweled tone colors & the crystal decor. This bangle would look fantastic stacked with solid colored bangles or it's even gorgeous enough to stand on its own! As you may have noticed, the embellished/jeweled trend is still going strong. Will it last for 2008? We'll have to see about that. Until then, if your fashionable fingers feel impulsed to splurge on this blinged out bangle - head on over to net-a-porter.com and charge it baby. The bangle will cost you $510.

TASTY TRENDSPOTTER: ANIMAL BANGLES.

WILD THING. YOU MAKE MY STYLISH HEART SING.
My third eye - which I often refer to as my "fashion eye" has been noticing a cute trend for arm jewelry recently. I am morbidly obsessed with bracelets & bangles. So obsessed that I spent $62 on my last arm accessory splurge. What, you thought I was joking? lol. Anywho, I first noticed the animal bangles in one of my many frequented trips to my beloved Urban Outfitters. I tried on the white tiger bracelet which was way too cute & fit great but I promised myself I wouldn't buy anything that day. lol. So today, I decided to browse on over to the wonderful site of that known as, Net A Porter to see if any higher end designers have gotten into the rumble of the jungle too. My finding results = they sure have! I saw a designer by the name of Kenneth Jay Lane (whom I've never heard of) who had some gorgeous animal bangles. Check them out.

Guess what lovies! The Kenneth Jay Lane Bracelets are actually on SALE right now on Net a Porter, 40% off! How lovely is that? I live for the sale.
