Jewellery Inspiration: BLAKE LIVELY’s Layered Bracelets
Once again we are coveting Blake Lively’s style (check our post on her earrings). It helps that she is always wearing gorgeous Chanel gowns and perpetually looks perfect. Here she is at The Green Lantern premiere accessorized to the nines with multiple layers of silver and gold bracelets by Lorraine Schwartz.

FALL/WINTER BLUES… from runways to Sophie’s Closet

AndContinue reading “SUMMER BRIDES”

She has a thing for emeraldContinue reading “Jewellery Inspiration: BLAKE LIVELY’s Earrings”

Yellows, reds, pinks, greens and blues — the brighter the better! ERICKSON BEAMON ‘Schiaparelli’ earrings KENNETH JAY LANE Enamel Cabochon bracelet Freshly atContinue reading “CRAZY COLOUR!”
