I love meeting up and coming talent and today I am proud to introduce to you Haitian designer Dominique Vasallo of Domini Jewelry. Each sterling silver wired charm is based on the graceful movements of dancers. Dominique truly captured the essence of a dancer with their flexible and alluring poise.
Be the it girl rockin’ your favorite expression! Like her motto says “Dance! Live it! Wear It!” at an unbeatable price for ONLY $35!
I love the idea of wearing statement necklaces to spice up a monotone dress. Take note of Rihanna nd Kim Kardashian, who both chose to accessorize their exact same pink shoulder-detail dress with a head turning bib necklace, giving their ensemble just the right dose of edginess!
I cannot, for the life of me, figure out who makes the dress…but if you like the look check out some outfit ideas below! Dresses with shoulder detail will be big this spring!

My new obsession is shopping online!!! I love running into these awesome jewelry sites selling body adornments- a new trend I haven’t seen enough fashionistas rocking. I ran across Damesf.com while browsing through a newly discovered blog called “Where Did U Get That”; written by a uniquely stylish London beauty named Karen. I stumbled upon her post “Heady“ and fell in love with her head adornment from Dame. I clicked on the link and to my gratification Dame has an eclectic collection of various head and body embellishments. Their use of chains to drape the shoulders, arms, and back are will satisfy both the boho chic and punk girl within you. I wanted everything I saw! Check out some of my favs below!

Trend Alert! Shoulder Jewelry is going mainstream! Whooo hooo! And I LOVE it! Everyone from country music star Carrie Underwood to pop diva Rihanna are rockin’ them. We’ve been diggin’ this look since we saw the Litter girls sporting them. We then saw shoulder jewelry featured on Jean Paul Gaultier’s Haute Couture Runway, and now everyone is trying to incorporate the trend in their every day ensembles. These chains look great on tank tops, jackets/blazers, and strapless dresses. Check out some of the looks below…

Three supermodels Jamie Bochert, Daphne Guinness, and Agyness Deyn, got together for the Three Women Vogue Italia’s February 2010 cover wearing an explosion of the most preeminent fashion and jewelry designers. After a little translating, lol, I was able to list the specific designers used to style most of the photos.

Freelance New York based designer Juniper Rose of Falconiere is growing in popularity with her medieval armor inspired jewelery. Rose’s proves her amazing talent with the use of chains and wiring in her designs. Her pieces include many chain-mail techniques for her necklaces that create a chic yet hard core look.

The talk of the fashion bloggers is her collaboration with Donna Karen for her tough-luxe accessories collection in 2009 in which she included stones, chains, and leather in many of her pieces, which merges well with the current “rocker girl” trend.
