HAIR CABOCHON

The tasty headpiece above reminds me, I need to searching for a unique head piece of jewellery to wear to a wedding in June, the search is on! and I think I may start browsing  on Etsy, and  I nearly forgot to mention, I have had some comments and an email wondering about the wall decorations on the photos I have taken. On the photos shown, they are both wall decals I brought from a French online store called Acte Deco, one of the reason I ordered from them is, they can customise wall decals for you and you can request what style design colour you prefer. 

Anyway hope you all have a Scintilla of a Sunday! Much Love to you all..........

Ring Horned Student Liberty

STUDENT LIBERTY MINIMALISM

   

My room is a agglomeration of mess!.... a mound of clothes thrusting against my wardrobe doors, I have never been one for neatly picking out an outfit the night before and having it ironed and neatly folded ready to be worn for the next day, the only time I have ever done this, was for my first day at high school! The most prep I have ever done since then is, is to subconsciously imagine a rough guide to what I could wear. the night before, The trouble is some of them items I imagine don't live in my wardrobe but are neatly hanging in some boutique or department store. 

Anyhow these photo's taken by Gianni Mosella are called slug passion and the rooms have a curiously scrambled expressive charm to it, evidently this room is not spic and span, but has a ambience of liberty and filled with free spirited expression. My room looks nothing like this! when its a mess, it is simply a mess and nothing more! no expression of liberty just an expression of dishevelled disorder, sadly.  

  

JENNIFER BEHR HEADBAND HORRIPILATION

Some of you may already be aware of Jennifer Behr's previous accessories collections,  her signature headbands have been worn + adorned plenty by Gossip Girl Blair Waldorf and her collection has a healthy dose of studs gems spikes and other tasty embellishments. Her bridal collection would on the nose add a touch glint and glamour to the day. 

I unequivocally have botheration wearing headbands, as to plenty of the time, my hair lacks volume and planting a headband on top would just seem I've suppressed my hair to thin vermicelli, but I would still smack my lips together and snap up these hair couture chandeliers.    

This 23-karat gold-plated silver ring set from Maison Martin Margiela will give all your urban looks an Acapulco gold directional twist. Wear them across your fingers for a nod to the avant-garde. Or hint hint to your other half, Feb 14th not long away!! To the price of £185 valentine pounds. mmmmh would have to skip the dinner + the chocolates + flowers.

Hotel Gluttony

In love, as in gluttony, pleasure is a matter of the utmost precision

Drinking and eating in excess is always accused of gluttony, taking me back to Joey from friends unwilling to share food with anyone! But likeable nonetheless...I wouldn't mind being accused of Hotel Gluttony, although if I wore the mask below I would be a glutton for punishment with my recent dismal eyesight , due to probably staring at the computer screen for too long because of work. 

Although Lady Gaga had no problem wearing her mask commissioned by H Gluttony itself to wear the captivating mask for in the dark photo shoot for Vogue Hommes Japan. Hotel Gluttony is an 'elegant erotic powerful and delicate jewellery and art', described by the chief designer of Hotel Gluttony, who also worked at Yoshika Creation Paris a well liked creative jewellery brand in Tokyo.

Here are some of my best loved designs from Hotel Gluttony or go here to more designs from there blog

Interior Exterior Hysteria

The other day I posted about searching the portal for interior design, a gateway for design lovers, and found the designs by 

Eunsuk Hur were something that

was looking to push the boundaries of fashion and interior decorating by exploring different materials an methods making them multifunctional and interchangeable modular textile pieces allowing you to create different outfits that you desire.

  The collection is called Nomadic Wonderland, 

Eunsuk Hur used wood, wool felt, and leather. You have a choice of colour, shape and textiles that can be altered as many times as you want.

There was a time when a string of lighting – the electrical product and a pearl of jewellery the elegant piece of accessory – were easily distinguishable: one functional, one fashionable. That was until I saw the Baroque Pearl String Lights, these indoor string of lights add a stylish unique lighting to your home. As soon as they are back in stock, I'm going to buy them flat out like a lizard drinking, from Glow. 

These Stanton James Armor funkdafied Jewellery strictly made for your exterior

Silver Black Stone Armor Ring + Multi Chain Cross Connector Bracelet 

January feels like an odd month, if January was assigned to any day of the week it would be a Monday, the festive season is over , add to that freezing weather, but it is a chance for a fresh year! Although the credit card bills will be piling in, I am on a semi shopping ban, but not including accessories, as you all know just by accessorising and styling alone, can change a whole look of an outfit. Fashionology.nl has some lovely bits and pieces for reasonable hyena change, especially if you live in the Netherlands and Europe as I noticed the shipping price is dirt cheap. =]
