Knock out Knock Offs




Well, I had a blast of inspiration this past week after watching MTV's The City! Watching Olivia Palermo search the streets of New York for knockoffs made me want to scour the web and local stores for the same thing. As a frequenter of Forever 21, Wet Seal and Charlotte Russe, I have notice the stores bringing in some pretty impeccable look alikes. This installment of the style file will focus on some recent knock offs I have come across! The showcased pieces are the new Tiffany's Keys and forever 21's "antique" key necklaces :). Check em out for yourselves and let me know your thoughts!

Statement Making Jewelry (rings)


The best way to complete an outfit is to pull it all together with your accessories. A set of bold bangles, a belt at a cinched waist, beautiful drop earrings with an updo--all these pieces make a woman truly pulled together! This week, I have been on a ring kick! I love making funky pieces with metal bands, interesting beads and hot glue!

I have pulled in some great funky rings that I thought might add some flair to that LBD, simple chic day look or that will glam up a funky outfit. Each of these pieces can be found at forever21.com. Utilize these pieces as sparingly as you want OR pile 'em on. I love the vintage chic, almost grandma looking jewelery, combined with modern pieces.

Have fun with this!
