1. Mismatched Triangle Studs

Little triangles seem to be all the rage in terms of accessories this Winter. Although I no longer visit brick and mortar stores, and am visiting proper online stores less and less frequently as of late, I can report that this is at least the case on Etsy. I have favorited many a triangular necklace, ring or, in this case, earrings. Not on Etsy (& coming with a major price tag), this mismatched pair of studs just makes me smile. I think it would make the perfect gift for a fashionista wife or sister, what say you?

1. Cloud hangers

I wish I could tell you I know exactly where you can find and purchase these adorable cloud hangers, but unfortunately, this was one of those random Tumblr finds. However, after some Internet research, I found similar ones from one of my old favorites, Fred Flare. How cute would these look in a child’s closet or just to display some special frocks? Sigh!

1. Glitter animals

Figures this lovely image came straight from Kate Spade’s Holiday shoot – why is all her stuff so perfectly fun and chic? I almost can’t stand it. Despite how gorgeous and glittery the model’s dress is, my eyes went directly to the matching sparkly penguins! How fun would these look, not only as cake toppers, but as fun centerpieces or card holders for a festive holiday cocktail party or dinner? I’m definitely going to scribble this one down as a must-do holiday project. Best part is, you can just head over to Target, and pick up some small animal figures, loose glitter and some sort of adhesive, and be ready to go! Perfect!

1. Harajuku for Target

I love all things Gwen Stefani (I kind of want to be her when I grow up), so naturally I’m a big fan of all her fashion lines. You can imagine how excited I got when I found out she was not only making a more budget kiddie line, but that it would be exclusively sold at Target stores! Sure, I don’t have any children just yet, but it’s not too early to start collecting swag, right? OK, so that might be a little crazy, but this girl right here does not care. I just may try to squeeze into that perfect little tutu skirt! {God help me if I have a daughter.} Let’s just hope it doesn’t result in another Missoni debacle.

1. Initial ring

I really love nameplates and initials on jewelry. I like the personalization and the simplicity. Believe it or not, despite my loud wardrobe, I prefer simple jewelry. These initial rings by Laladesignstudio on Etsy scream understated perfection. And it seems I’m not the only one that felt that way, due to overwhelming demand, she had to close her shop to catch up on orders. No worries though, you can ask to be notified when the shop is ready to be opened once more!
