Style Swellness: Silver summer accessories

Silver jewelry

Although I’ve been wearing gold for years now (not sure when I made the switch from favoring silver), lately some silver accessories have been stealing my affection.

Melissa Gobeil Design

This lovely fringey piece here, for one. Layered over a Tshirt that drapes just how you want it to or floaty summer dress? Perfection. And, oh, it’s made by my very talented friend Melissa GobeilMelissa Gobeil Design Quill Neckpiece, $175.

 Jenny Bird Luna Warrior Wrap

This leather wrap bracelet with dangling chains made me stop in my tracks the first time I saw it. It’s by Jenny Bird (don’t forget to pick up your limited-edition Wild for Bees bracelets and earrings while you can!), and I’m pretty sure I’ll be caving soon and buying this piece (so much for trying not to shop…). Jenny Bird Luna Warrior Wrap, $65.

Pyrrha

And the third covetable piece is by Pyrrha, a Vancouver-based company. A friend once mentioned how good she feels wearing her Pyrrha pieces, and how she often finds herself touching the talisman when she has it on, and I can see why; they have a great weight and pleasing feel to them. I’m partial to this one here featuring a trinity of elk, representing great strength. Pyrrha Intuition Talisman Necklace, $140.

Beauty Swellness: Maybelline Color Show Fashion Prints Nail Stickers

Maybelline Color Show Fashion Prints Nail Stickers in Metal Prisms

Nail-job craving: I removed my V-gap mani at home (by soaking in acetone and scraping it off) and needed something edgy for my quick stop into Montreal Fashion Week tomorrow.

How I satisfied that craving: With Maybelline Color Show Fashion Prints Nail Stickers in Metal Prisms.

How this nail colour make me feel: Flashy. And like any rings or jewelery paired with these nails might be OTT.

Love it or hate it: Love the metal stud look of this print. Application took about half an hour and I found it hard to get the sticker to lie smoothly (especially at the nail tip). Given the slightly ragged edge I ended up with, I’m interested to see how long the nail stickers hold onto my nails.
