Mixing Metallics: She-Beads Holiday 2015 “Peace”

December 19, 2015

 

She-Beads Holiday 2015 collection: Peace

For this season, the lovely Alexandra worked with white, gold, copper and a little touch of black, to give us a collection with some gleam and a touch of sparkle – I think she’s really talented…The range of ways that you can wear this jewelry is nearly infinite – there’s nary a color that won’t look cool with these. I like the way they bring an unexpected warmth to colors that don’t usually get warmth…

If you’re going to wear snazzy jewelry, you might as well have a stand-out manicure. While I have really conflicting feelings about nail polish, there are some times when it’s very difficult to resist!

Metallic cardigan – Paul Smith; black pants – J. Crew; Milos nail polish – NARS; black flats – Nine West; green metallic sweater – Paul Smith; Wild Green nail polish –  Dolce & Gabbana; green flats – French Sole

I love all of the textures and patterns in the first outfit, and I think the jewelry gives an unexpected zest to the red dress. Yes, you’ve seen those dark gold pumps before – I’m really smitten with the versatility of that darker gold tone!

 

Lace and tweed dress – Dolce & Gabbana; Baroque Bronze polish –   Dolce & Gabbana; bronze pumps – Bella Vita; red dress – Dorothy Perkins;  fire nail polish – Dolce & Gabbana; dark gold pumps – Sam Edelman

Cool jewelry really earns its stripes when you’re dressed casually, and the jewelry does the “heavy lifting” to dress up your outfit.

 

Olive sweater – Dorothy Perkins; Sloane Ranger nail polish – butter LONDON;  olive boots – Teva; silver sweater – Joanna Hope; Amarapura nail polish – NARS;  jeans – Tommy Hilfiger; silver loafers – Trask

For what it’s worth, I get absolutely nothing but love from the people at She Beads – I share their work with you because I think that they’re talented, and that the jewelry they produce is unique, beautiful, and fun!More about Paris coming Monday…

love,
Janice

    Welcome back to the land of the living, Janice! Jet lag is horrible. Love the Dolce and Gabbana dress!

    The She Beads are new to me – what a great concept. I have a lot of Lagos pieces and I like the mix of sterling and gold. Very versatile.

    Ooh, everything but that red dress would fit wonderfully in my closet. I may need to take a closer look at that necklace.

    It's Saturday and I'm checking in to see if there are more scarves – did I miss the chance to win the floral horse?

    I deeply support the choice of non-mass-produced jewelry, both for ones' self and as a gift. Distinctive, and you are not paying an obscene brand tax. You don't see knockoffs, either. I wish she made a pendant that is not a heart, in addition to the others.
