Gone Shopping Part II
Not that I actually have the money to purchase all these things, but a girl can dream. Hell, it's why I read catalogues like magazines. I started out just looking at the earrings at Urban Outfitters--I'm a sucker for earrings--and ended up hopping around to various stores.
Some notes on the items:
• I'm a sucker for all dangly or delicate jewelry.
• Fabulous Fanny's and Screaming Mimi's are two of the places to go for sunglasses or vintage frames.
• I like the concept of jewelry cabinets in addition to jewelry boxes. Boxes are great for rings, some earrings and bracelets/watches, but really a cabinet helps make sure those necklaces aren't getting tangled. What a pain in the arse it is to attempt to untangle (but not succeed) a necklace when you're running late for work!
• The BCBGMAXAZRIA skirt caught my fancy when I ran into an old friend from HS at my store. Her friend came in to find a body suit to match with this skirt (she bought it in MOCHA) and can I just say it's FABULOUS and worth every darn penny...
• That night stand might be hard to see since it's white-on-white, but ooooo the pattern is cute as well as the overall structure of the dresser itself.
• The GUAM jewelry reminds me of the monkey bone jewelry my dad made for my aunt when he was going to school for jewelry design. I've inherited those lovely thick beads... everything makes a come back I guess... Brian Crumley's design for the earrings is reminiscent of the fake plastic jewelry you made as a kid growing up in the late 80s/early 90s. While I'm intrigued... I'm not sure I'd fork over my hard-earned money.
