Fun Stuff!

We know how jewelery can add definition and style to an outfit, but it doesn't always have to be so serious.  Fun jewelery, when worn properly can add a touch of whimsy to any outfit.  I am dedicating this post to all the delightful trinkets out there!


When I was off on holidays I turned on the TV to the Tyra Banks Show.  She was demonstrating her talent to give beauty and fashion advice in less than 60 seconds - clearly the questions were given to her in advance as she not only had the responses down, she had the items to show off.  One girl had a question about jewelery and about pairing earrings and pendants (to be honest I sort of lost interest in the program by this point and started checking email, wondering why I still had the TV on) and Tyra showed off Pop-Out Jewelery.  I was fascinated!  They come as earrings and pendants and are in gold-tone, red, blue, green and black.  Check out Melissa Borrell Design on how to secure one of these bad-boys of your very own!
She also has a bunch of other cool items for sale including housewares, so be sure to take a peek.


Scouring the web for cool, fun and funky jewelery isn't very hard as there are so many options out there!  Rare Bird Finds was a great source for inspiration and they have different designers featured all over their website.  Here are just a few examples of the funky jewelry items they showcase:







There are so many options available both in shops and online so don't shy away from the fun stuff, we all need a little reprieve every now and then :)
