How to wear jewelry…

Hello Darlings,

When it comes to jewelry I am as clueless as it gets. It can be said that I suck at accessorizing. I am just too intimidated by costume jewelry, too obsessed with pearls to even bother wearing them because of a fear of going overboard, too reluctant to mix silver and gold jewelry, too nervous to look like a walking freak-show, too scared to wear fake as not to look like a phony. In one word, I am CONFUSED! I adore collecting jewelry but I never really know how to put it to a good use, in a way that could transform a look from drab to fab. In order to tackle such a dilemma, I went ahead and decided to turn to professionals and gather some visual inspiration.

" A woman's relationship with her accessories is important and elemental. Because, your accessories... tell the world who you are." - Nina Garcia

This is my first attempt at trying to lean how to wear jewelry in a way that truly does make a statement. Hopefully this little 101 to jewelry is going to help me overcome my fear as well as inspire you to either face your fear as well or to try something new. It's not possible to know or be inspired too much! S0 shall we :)

What is beautiful to you…

Hello Darlings,

Following a surprising arrival of stunning flowers and a fabulous gift from Calvin Klein—which I am going to farther discuss in my next post—I could not help but ponder upon the idea of beauty. By definition B-E-A-U-T-Y is "the qualities that give pleasure to the senses." And to kick off the Calvin Klein BEAUTY It Touches Everything Contest...

...I would like to share ten things that gave pleasure to my senses today :) Although I could probably make an endless list...there are those ten things that really did make me experience "beauty"!!!

That hug

MMJ Additions and Transitions…

Hello Darlings,

Whew, it has been a crazy summer...full of unexpected events and never ending study sessions! As the summer is coming to a halt and I am counting down the days to my birthday...I must admit that I am looking forward to a start of a new season.

It is not only because I adore fall fashions, but because fall is a beginning of something new. It is the time to pack away summer closet and unpack the fall attire, decide on a darker and richer hue for the hair do, switch from sherbets to burgundies on your nails, tone down the pink lip color, take out the cashmere reserves, and of course step forward with booties and boots! How can it not be exciting?The beautiful coats, the stunning scarfs, a million ways to layer a cardi, the opaque tights, and of course the leather jackets! Just the thought of a beautiful fall day, with a hot coffee in hand, absorbing the last rays of sunshine, surrounded by the falling leaves and the golden colors..makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :)

Because we can make a difference…

Hello Darlings,

In the midst of studying, I constantly remind myself to take the time to relax and indulge just a little. Yesterday, I not only got the opportunity to indulge but to also show my support for Canadian Cancer Society Girls Night In program by spending some much needed quality time with my mom. This amazing program focuses on funding leading-edge research for women's cancers, specifically breast, cervical, ovarian and uterine. Every little bit of support helps, so why not sign up and host your own girls night in or out! It can be as little and intimate as mine or a big fiesta...it is your choice. For more information on the program check out, Girls Night In.

Also for my fellow Torontonias, there's another great way to get involved and save a life by participating in a North York General Hospital's Underwear Affair on August 28. The mission of the Underwear Affair is to bring awareness to down there-ness and to uncover a cure for underfunded below-the-waist cancers. It is not only a great cause but also a great time. Following the 10K/5K walk is an EXPOsed Afterparty. With Love…readers can sign up for The Underwear Affair for only $15! Just enter the following discount code when registering: With Love

Regardless of the cause that you chose to support just remember that every effort courts, so please show that you care and get involved!!! Not only did I have fun expressing my support but I am back with an outfit post and seven steps to stay healthy :)

Finishing Touches…

Hello Darlings,

As we all know a perfect accessory can either make or break an outfit! With right accessories you can make a simple LBD look extraordinary.... OR simply tacky! Well, what if accessories are not the only thing that can make or break an outfit? What if every detail that goes into your look matters? What if every little thought that you put into getting ready is what "distinguishes you from the pack" ?..... Which comes down to: DO DETAILS MATTER?

Although this is a personal blog and I just rant about my random thoughts, I am very eager and interested in hearing yours. So please do not hesitate to agree or disagree! But at the same time, I would like to add that in no way do I apply my views to every individual, but only to myself.... I figured that I should state this before sharing my opinion on this topic :)
