Wow Wednesdays: May 27, 2010

I'm sitting here surfing for new pieces to add to my costume jewelry collection and I found some designers who have escaped my radar...and I don't know why! Their collections are beautiful!

Take a peek:

Alex Bittar's gold hinged bracelet

Miriam Haskell's Pearl Cocktail Ring: oh so scrumptious...

Chamak by Priya Kakkar Set of 6 Bangle Bracelets

Snippit Sundays: May 23, 2010

As I begin blogging (and thinking of a title!) I realize the importance of putting my ideas to paper...like, wth was I supposed to be on here blogging about lol!! My old brain finally kicks in...Snippit Sundays *plucking side of head*

Here are two shoes I enjoyed this week...hope u like just as much as I do:

Bravo TV's "9byDesign" and Ann Carrington

This piece by artist/scultor Ann Carrington is featured on an episode of Bravo TV's "9byDesign". Although it appears t be a large artpiece it is beautifully displayed in the master bathroom of mom and pop Novagratz.

Here is Ms. Carrington's website for more details and other fantastic pieces!

Bravo TV's "Real Housewives of New York"

So one might think I'm a Bravo channel junkie...ding, ding, ding. Ring the alarm. For some reason I am obsessed with this show (& the RHONJ, strangely). Maybe it's the voyeurism into the world of privilige or is it Team Bethenny vs Team Jill vs Coo Coo Kelly- did you catch her infamous season finale meltdown? Well, here it is:
...whatever it is this show has a sensible diva like myself hooked!

Plus, supposedly the McCord/Van Kempen duo may not return for Season 4...does it have anything to do with Alex McCord telling Jill Zarin off? Hmmmmm...stay tuned folks!
