NEW IN

Here are a few new items bringing a little spice into my pre-fall warderobe these days:

My new must have shoes for fall, the Heda Wedges! I love the hidden wedge and that it's super comfy and can be worn with anything. You still have a few hours to enter my giveaway to win a pair of your own! ;)

My jewelry box was missing golden cocktail rings and I was more than happy to get some new goodies. The fox ring is from Romwe, the rest is from Pennies/Primark from Dublin.

What a cute beauty bag! It's full of mineral goodies from Allechant Designs. I promise I'll give you a detailed review soon! ;)

I wanted a military green bag for some time now and this Romwe beauty fits the bill perfectly! It's actually pretty big, so there is more than enough place for my daily knicknacs. LOVE!

Have you bought any fall items already?

My Jewelry Box

It's funny how my taste has changed over the years. I used to be an earring person, wearing big gypsy jewelries throughout my collage years, while I didn't even own a watch or any sunglasses. These days I'm leaning much more towards statement watches and shades and hardly ever wear my beloved earrings anymore. Most of my jewelries and accessories are souvenirs from various trips, including my two jewelry boxes from Egypt and Tunisia. Some people collect magnets I prefer necklaces and bangles! :D It always feels like I take a piece of the culture with me through these jewelries and I love to be reminded of the beautiful places and friendly people I met during these journeys. Lately I've started to enlarge my collection with some vintage pieces and I've got a feeling that it's just the beginning! :) Do you have a special piece of jewelry that you treasure above everything else? I'd love to hear its story! :)

This post was brought to you by My Jewelry Box.

What I wish I was wearing in Barcelona

I have been a very good girl lately and basically haven't bought anything since the January sales. Not that my unemployed budget can afford much, but after a somewhat longer shopping diet my apetite is slowly creeping back. :) One of the things I love about Spain is how people love to dress up and how they make an effort to look good each and every day. These are just a few of the pieces I wish I had in my carry on to Barcelona.

1. RayBan Wayfarers - My golden aviators are one of my favorite accessories and even though I have wayfarer like cheapo sunglasses (seen here) I wish I had the real thing too! :)

2. Rick Owens Leather Jacket - These are an absolute dream and if I had unlimited funds it would be one of the first things to invest in. In the meantime my search for affordable alternatives continues. Any suggestions?

3. Michael Kors Black Ceramic Watch - I love my golden Michael Kors Jet Set watch to pieces but sometimes I do wish I had a lower key model as the gold can easily overpower the rest of my outfit. I think this black ceramic version would be a perfect alternative.

4. Hunter Original Tall Wellington Boots - On the second day of our stay it was raining the WHOLE ENTIRE day without a break, so I really did wish I had these classic rainboots with me.

5. Mulberry Alexa bag - My Mulberry obsession is out of control. I wish I could have every single colors from both the Alexa and Bayswater models :)

6. YSL Arty Wood Ring - I've been obsessing over these rings for some time now, but the new wood and black models make it even harder to resist.

7. Le Mode Accessories Dramatic Links Bracelet - I love the combination of gold and black leather. This bracelet would surely pump up the volume on any outfits and would have completed my Barcelona look perfectly. 

What are you drooling over these days? I'd love to hear! :)

Dice Ring

Normally I'm not one for quirky jewelry, but when I spotted this dice ring on a design fair I simply couldn't resist. I don't know if it's the childhood memories, the 3D design or the fact that it makes me feel very artsy but it's certainly one of my new favorite pieces to spice up a simple black outfit for school!

Blogtrend*Turquoise Statement Necklace

I just recently discovered that just like in clothes there are major trends in jewelry as well. (duh!) I know we are all smitten with buttery leather shorts and creamy camel coats, but one accessory that cannot miss from any trendy girl's fall wardrobe is a statement turquoise necklace. There are plenty of ways to wear it, with a simple white dress/cardi or even with a blast of color, it is truly a piece to invest in!

Or... join my giveaway (if you haven't yet) to win one of Anna's many beautiful turquoise  pieces. Hurry! Hurry! The giveaway closes at 8pm GMT! ;)

Egyptian Treasures

{Ankh silver medal, Ankh = the mirror of life/the cross of life, one of the most well known hieroglyphs} 

I almost forgot to post about my new treasures found in Egypt. In the last few years I have developed a habit of buying jewelry wherever I'm traveling... (remember this?) I think they are the perfect souvenir and I'm extra excited for my trips knowing that I'll come back a few sterling heavier.... :) you know some like fridge magnets, some like silver :D In addition to two new pieces I have also indulged in this amazing leather jewelry box this time. 

Do you collect souvenir pieces from you travels? I'd love to hear what they are! ;)
