Holiday Jewelry Trends

I don't know about you guys, but I'm already thinking about the holidays! I've started my Christmas shopping, and I'm already planning my holiday party outfits!

So what is everyone going to be wearing this year?

Here are a few of the top trends in jewelry for this holiday season.

Bling Bling!

"Bling" is always in for the holiday season.  It brings glitz and glam to any of your holiday outfits. This one by DBMB can be worn with just about anything.

DBMB's Strut Your Stuff Necklace $14.00

Colored Stones

Colored stones are getting increasingly popular going into the winter season.  I love this one in blue, because it reminds me of winter.  I would wear this with a black or grey dress.  You would only need one piece of jewelry with this jewel, it steals the show!

DBMB's  Sapphire Blaze Necklace $14.00

Cocktail Rings

 Cocktails and cocktail rings are a must during the holidays! Don't forget to decorate your fingers too!

DBMB's Dragonfly Bubbles $16.00 

Dark Diamonds

Dark diamonds are going to be very popular this season.  I like them because they have a more edgy appeal.

DBMB's Forget Me Knot Necklace $17.00 

Pendants

Pendants are the easiest gift to give! Everyone loves them and they are a classic piece, especially during the holidays.

DBMB's Silverlight Petal Necklace $12.00

Sterling Silver

The best thing about sterling silver...it lasts forever! Enough said. :)

DBMB's MoModern Envy Ring $32.00



Five Friday Favorites

A few of my favorite things from this week...

Matthew Williamson's Dress

Cat Deeley looks amazing in this Matthew Williamson dress.

I love everything about this look. The cut of the dress, the fun colors, the rock and roll clutch..fab. I would definitely wear this.

Revlon's Strawberry Electric Nail Polish

Strawberry Electric nail polish from Revlon. Perfect for summer, and very pretty on tan toes!

Cold Stone's Birthday Cake Remix

 I cheated on my diet this week with a yummy scoop of cold stone birthday cake ice cream with sprinkles. (I usually get it without the chocolate and the cone) My most favorite ice cream ever. YUM.

The song I've been dancing to all week- Lady GaGa's Alejandro.

I have to admit, I'm kind of infatuated with Lady GaGa. Her "out there" fashion sense defiantly intrigues me. I've had her new song Alejandro in my head all week. I would love to see her in concert, I bet she puts on a great show.

Favorite App - QRANK!

I'm pretty obsessed with playing Qrank on my iphone right now.  Its a trivia game that takes news headlines from the day before and asks you questions. The harder the questions, and the faster you select the answer the more points you get. (My highest has been 6,000) It only lets you play once a day, but trust me..its addicting!

Must Have Vaca Fashion

In a couple weeks (14 days actually..not that I'm counting) My mom, boyfriend, his mom and his sister are all heading to the fabulous city of New Orleans for a four day vacation, complete with a whole weekend of country concerts.  I'm super excited and have been trying to find some cute vacation outfits and accessories. Here are some of the things I've found so far.

Headbands

http://www.freepeople.com/

I love headbands, especially Boho ones like this one from Free People, and its only $9.95 They are great on vacations because they are not only stylish, but keep your hair back and out of your face, so you can concentrate on important vacation activities...like getting your tan on, or shopping. :)

Light Summer Bag

A light summery bag is almost essential for vacation trips in the summer. No one wants to lug around their leathery handbag at the beach.  I found this one from Nordies for $34.00

Cover Up Dress

A cute cover up dress is great for vacationing.  Not only can you throw it on before you head out the door to the beach, you can also wear it with a cute pair of wedges, add some jewelry, and your ready to head out to dinner.  They are very versatile, very easy, and very comfy.

Gladiator Flats

I have a pair of Gladiator flats similar to these from Steve Madden and love them in the summer time. (I got mine for only $20.00!) They are easy to slip on and off, and are way more stylish than your regular flip flops.  Plus you can wear these out on the town all day without your feet hurting like they might in wedges, and still look fabulous.
