True to Your Heart

As Valentines Day approaches, we see more and more heart jewelry advertised. My guess, they're trying to create a need for expensive Valentine's jewelry so that the girlies will want it and the guys will therefore have to buy it. It is a tricky system, but nevertheless has continued to work for decades. I'm guilty, I own some pretty amazing heart jewelry that I wear almost as often as I get dressed. Despite the Hallmark atmosphere of this holiday I am definitely a firm believer in jewelry as gifts and there are some pretty fun pieces of Valentine's Day jewelry that people shouldn't have to live without.

For instance, I'm sure we're all hoping we get a little blue box on the special day, after all it's everything a girl should wish for. It's definitely the best of the best when it comes to Valentine's Day jewelry and they know it as displayed in their tagline of "Nothing gets to the heart of the matter like a gift from Tiffany." Personally, my favorite is the heart collection designed by Elsa Peretti. It's just the classic and simple heart cutout pendant that is signature Tiffany. But there's something to be said about the classics.

If you're looking for some more fun not-so-serious heart jewelry Juicy Couture has some fun Valentine's Day treats. The Sweet Shoppe charm bracelet is a treat in itself with it's cute Sweetheart candy inspired charms with messages written on the hearts. It definitely screams Valentines Day, but I bet with some outfit coordination you could pull it off year round. I have to admit, I'm also sucked in by the cute, pink heart boxes that everything comes in :)

Looking for something glitzy and stunning? I really liked this white gold and diamond heart pendant from Zales, it's sure to take a girls breath away. I think what appealed to me most was that the diamonds only wrap around part of the heart because it is different from your typical diamond studded heart pendant. It definitely captures the spirit of Valentine's Day mixed with the fact that diamonds are a girls best friend!

Good luck on your Valentine's Day wishes...I hope they all come true!

Think Pink!

Pink is my new color, it might be a phase, but I'll take it. Pink also happens to be the new spring "it" color...but when does pink actually go out of style :) I guess this time of year is definitely the time to start getting into pink because of the well known holiday we all love and despise at the same time. So I've decided the best way to beat the valentine's day blues is shopping for pink things!!

These shoes for instance, they would knock the blues right out of me. There's just something about pink that puts a spring in my step (no pun intended.) The Kate Spade pair (left) would be so cute with a springy white lace sundress and pink cardigan and the Miss Sixty hot pink pumps (right) would add a spark to the slinky little black dress in the back of your closet that has been dying to be worn all winter!

Accessories wise, these win. The Alexis Bittar bracelets (left) are a must have (and the pink one is super cute.) They are made from lucite resin and are the lightest chunky jewelry you will ever own. The Betsey Johnson scarf (right) will definitely jazz up your typical black peacoat (and the Miss Sixty pumps will match PERFECT!) Why not be warm in style?

Pretty much I'm in love. These pink dresses are brilliant. The ABS Allen Schwartz dress (right) really pops with the bright pink and the shiny satin fabric. You will definitely make an impression, whether out for a romantic Valentine's day dinner or a wild night out. The BCBG stunner (left) is adorable. I love that it's not one of the typical pinks you see in fashion everywhere. It's a little more subdued and very elegant. Love it.

The Salvatore Ferragamo tote (right) is a great bag for carrying books to class (in my case) or as an everyday purse when you want to make a statement...or show off your electric personality. The Coach umbrella (left) is perfect for a rainy day, with the grey sky and depressing atmosphere, a little pink is what everybody needs :)
