paris fashion: New Fall 2012 Jewelry Collection In the Making and more...

Beauty Is Within Header

I can't believe that September is right around the corner!

I'm very excited about fall because it's my favorite season of the year, so it's only fitting that I relaunch my jewelry shop on Etsy next month. For the past couple months I've been working on a new fall jewelry collection that I'm calling "Industrial Chic".

I've always been fascinated with circles, and as I was going through my jewelry supplies, I came across these washers that I found on the ground a couple years ago. As I was making bracelets out of these washers, the idea came to create a whole collection based on the theme of industrial "chic". So I went to the store and bought small washers so I could make earrings and more bracelets.

What I like about this collection - besides the washers - is the mixture of metals. I've mixed gold, sterling silver, and copper in many of the pieces.

I've only added one of the pieces of this new collection (pictured here) to my Etsy shop as a teaser, but I will be adding the whole collection within the next couple weeks.

Classic, Everyday Fashion For the Curvy Woman

Source: Uploaded by user via Simply on Pinterest

Today I came across Simply Be's Pinterest page, which has some beautiful black and white photos from their Runway Collection. My favorite photo is the one shown above. I wish I had the bangs to duplicate that look!

By the way, if you haven't been exposed to the addiction called Pinterest, let me warn you now...

Browsing through Simply Be's boards, I was inspired to share my classic fashion picks for those of you who have a curvy-licious, bodacious body:

The LBD
The little black dress is a staple piece for every woman, but I like that this dress has studs, which creates a little interest...

Leopard Print
A woman can never go wrong with a little leopard print in her wardrobe. I like that this dress cinches and accents the waist so it doesn't make you look frumpy.

Kimono Tunic
I love Kimono style tops because they allow for wiggle room, plus they're airy for those hot summer days.

Jumpsuits
I don't see jumpsuits going away anytime soon. Whether they're shorts or pants, I love jumpsuits because, just like dresses, you can throw it on and go.
