Make a statement

It’s been too long since I last blogged, but I’m finally back. Today, I’m talking about making a statement – a statement with bling!

A classy girl can never have enough pretty baubles and jewels. My favourite shop for statement necklaces is Anne Emma Jewelry, a shop on Etsy. But there are many stores that have fabulous and divine statement jewelry, from necklaces, rings, bracelets, and earrings. The trick is knowing what your style is. Ask yourself, how far are you willing to garner attention? Then, once you’re clear on what you are willing to wear and your price point (statement pieces can get pricey), pay attention in stores to what they have and carry – the sizes, patterns, shapes, colours, quality, etc…Additionally, think about the outfits that you wear or have, at the same time that you are looking around.

From sparkling and shiny gems, to colourful beads or stones, a gorgeous statement piece is sure to make an outfit. As long as the statement piece is the only thing screaming for attention, and not competing against colour, pattern, or the style of the outfit, it’s sure to be a winner.

Amp up the most plain white t-shirt and jeans with the right statement necklace. Then, throw on a classic and tailored blazer. Pair this outfit with cute ballet flats or strappy sandals, if you are on the go, or match it with high-heel pumps or trendy wedge shoes, and you’re sure to look like a million bucks.

Easy style with a touch of bling will make any girl’s day a fab day!

That’s it for now. Happy Shopping!

A gem for your gems

Jewelry stand

I’m absolutely in love with my one-of-a-kind handmade jewelry stand courtesy of my good friend @daintystyleblog.com. This gem has everything a Chic Stylistics girl would want in a jewelry stand for her gems.

My three piece stand is handcrafted using two different size white plates and a candlestick holder, hand-painted in my favourite colour – tiffany blue/robin’s egg blue. The unique design on the centre of each plate is hand-painted in a black.

It’s design and function is simplistic, yet practical. It’s modern and contemporary, yet timeless. This great find provides a chic way of displaying your beautiful jewelry pieces and accessories, while providing a quick and easy access to them.

 The best part is, as a DIY project, you can make it as high as you want, and in whatever colours you desire. So, head over to @daintystyleblog.com for more details on how to make this fabulous jewelry stand.

Until next time, take care…
