7 Days of Statement Necklaces

May 31, 2012 in Fashion

A while back, we had a look at an imaginary week in my life with ’7 Sparkly Days of Cocktail Rings’. Today, we’re playing make believe once again. But this time with statement neklaces. The statement necklace is a fabulous way to add some sparkle and interest to a simple outfit, to distract the eye from areas we aren’t quite thrilled with, or to design an entire outfit around.

Monday

“I hate Mondays,” Puss In Boots uttered in the movie ‘Shrek 2′. Turning that hate into love is as easy as picking up a beautiful statement necklace and letting it inspire an outfit. Even if that outfit is as simple as a little black dress.

Tuesday

Besides a much needed coffee, the only other thing putting a twinkle in my eye is this gorgeous necklace. Who says you have to save sparkles for the weekend?!

Wild Bling ‘Acrylic Crystal Bow Necklace’ ($69.00)

Wednesday

Hump Day. One of those days that can go either way. The only way I’m going to guarantee a great day is to style myself up with a great necklace. Works a charm.

Miss Trudie ‘Braided Rope Necklace’ ($29.00)

Thursday

A spot of late-night shopping calls after work, which means it’s time to find some new outfits to match my necklace. Perfect shopping logic, don’t you think?!

Nerine Anne Designs ‘Marine Goddess’ Necklace ($38.00)

Friday

Friday nights are nearly always spent catching up with friends for dinner and/or drinks, so an outfit that transitions from day to night is essential. And so is the necklace that goes with it. Time to amp up the glamour.

Diva ‘Gold Enamel Glamour Necklace’ ($14.99)

 Saturday

A big Saturday night out calls for a big necklace. Looks like the wattage has been turned up to full shine with this number. Love it!

Forever New ‘Nietta Chainmail Stone Necklace’ ($59.99)

Sunday

A ladies brunch means a ladylike outfit with accessories to match. And what better choice than the metal of the moment, rose gold. So elegant.

 PeepToe ‘Goddess Isis Necklace’ ($119.00)

Do you collar a great outfit with a statement necklace?

Stay Chic,

Colour Me Chic…Turquoise

April 19, 2012 in Beauty, Fashion

This is a brand new post in the Shop Me Chic collection!!

Colour Me Chic will take a different colour and pick the very best fashion, accessories and beauty products in that particular colour.

Today, we’re colouring your world turquoise!!

The gemstone turquoise represents the star sign Sagittarius. The phrase “The Turquoise” refers to the waters of the Caribbean. In holistic medicine, the colour turquoise purportedly has a calming effect on patients. And the colour turquoise plays an important role in the Shop Me Chic logo.

Who knew this gorgeous little colour had so many purposes?!  Now let’s put it to good use the best way we know how…

OPI Nail Lacquer ’Fly’ by Nicki Minaj from Salon Style ($16.96)

MAC ‘Aquadisiac’ Eye Shadow ($33.00)

Illamasqua ‘Strike’ Nail Varnish (approx $21.43)

Turquoise is such a striking colour that really pops on nails and eyes. And if you’re feeling particularly daring – Illamasqua also does a turquoise lipstick. Would you??

Shabby Sisters ‘Turq Drop’ Earrings ($50.00)

Wild Bling ‘Lucite Crystal Choker’ ($49.00)

Luxe by Lulu ‘Cara’ Bracelet from the Amalfi Collection ($13.20)

It’s so easy – and fun – to rock super bright turquoise jewellery. And it was for this very reason I chose more subdued pieces, with the exception of the amazing Wild Bling choker, which I would save for weekend fun. The more understated pieces can be worn to work…as well as on the weekend.

Agent Ninetynine Slouchy Beanie from General Pants ($19.95)

Billabong Beanie Band from SurfStitch ($19.99)

NewUrban Mia Felt Fedora Hat (approx $68.75)

A fun and unexpected way to incorporate turquoise into your outfit is with headwear. A beanie, a headband or a hat…pop it on your head for a pop of colour!!

Forver New ‘Maley Paper Bag Short’ ($59.99)

ASOS Mini Dress With Contrast Piping ($58.00)

Sportsgirl ‘Cocoon Coat’ ($169.95)

Turquoise is one of the beautiful jewel tones hitting stores this winter and here are three different ways to incorporate this colour into your wardrobe. Such a gem of a colour!!

Tony Bianco ‘Fryer’ Heel ($169.95)

Wittner ‘Lee Lee’ Ballet Flat ($99.95)

Zu ‘Empress’ Heel ($150.00)

I love a coloured shoe to add a point of interest to an outfit. These gorgeous heels would be the ultimate exclamation point at the end of a fashion sentence…!!

ASOS Paul’s Boutique Satchel ($115.99)

Forever New ‘Sigourney’ Clutch ($24.99)

Colette Accessories ‘Minnie Square Turnlock Crossbody’ ($29.95)

And finally grab the finishing touch to your outfit before you head out the door – a lovely turquoise bag to carry you through Winter.

There you have it ladies. Are you all turquoised out now? No? Good!! Make sure you get into one of the most beautiful colours of the season.

What colour do you want to see featured next in Colour Me Chic?

Stay Chic,

Sonia. xx

7 Sparkly Days of Cocktail Rings

March 14, 2012 in Fashion

Stylist extraordinaire Rachel Zoe and her fab TV show ‘The Rachel Zoe Project’ first introduced me to the sparkly world of cocktail rings. Rachel will often keep her clients’ outfits quite simple and let the accessories do all the talking – in particular a statement cocktail ring (or 2 or 3).

I love that cocktail rings can have such a spotlight effect on an outfit and can make you feel super glamorous so easily.

Now allow me to indulge myself you in an imaginary week of my life featuring 7 fabulous cocktail rings to help tell the sparkly story…

Monday

Mondayitis has struck in a major way and it’s not even 9am. No time to think about putting together an amazing outfit, so I throw on an ever faithful all-black ensemble. I add some crystal stud earrings and this Big Bow Ring, which instantly lifts my mood – especially when I’m clutching a skinny flat white and watching it sparkle so beautifully in the morning sun.

Big Bow Ring, Colette Accessories, $12.95

Tuesday

Unsure about whether to go with yellow or rose gold accessories, I embrace them both by slipping on this Harper Pave Oval Stretch Ring. I use the ring as inspiration and design my outfit around it – tones of cream, blush and caramel. I’m feeling fresh and ready to take on the day.

Harper Pave Oval Stretch Ring, Forever New, $14.99

Wednesday

Hump Day rolls around and with it, a day of meetings. What better way to dazzle (or distract) my colleagues than with this Oversize Crystal Flower Ring. The sparkly accessory seems to have the desired effect and is an instant mood lifter.

 Oversize Crystal Flower Ring, Wild Bling, $29.00

Thursday

And so begins the downward slope towards the weekend. Looking ahead makes me want to glam up, so I call upon this stunning Sunburst Cocktail Ring. Taking my cue from Miss Nicole Richie herself, I get the curling wand out and rock some loose waves, a sassy attitude and a wry smile.

Sunburst Cocktail Ring, House of Harlow (from Miijo), $79.00

Friday

TGIF!! I’m in a playful mood so why not have some fun with my accessories?? This Lady Bug Ring is the perfect playmate to get me through the last working day of the week. Isn’t she a cutie?! We’re going to have some fun…

Red Lady Bug Ring, Wild Bling, $25.00

Saturday

Ahh Saturday, my favourite day of the week. The only day where you can do exactly as you please all day and all night. I want a versatile cocktail ring that can be worn casually during the day with a denim jacket and leopard print scarf, and dressed up with a gorgeous little black dress and heels in the evening. Enter this Angel Wings Ring in rose gold. Divine.

Angel Wings Rose Gold Ring, Wildfox Couture (from Miijo), $59.00

Sunday

It’s a beautiful sunny Sunday – the perfect reason to have a picnic in the park with some friends and their kids. Keeping my outfit cute and casual, I slip on this Minnie x Mawi Ring, knowing it will be a hit with the kids. Not to mention the adults too. Happy days…

Minnie x Mawi Pave Ear Dome Ring, Disney Couture (from Miijo), $99.00

When do you rock a cocktail ring?

Stay chic,

Sonia
