Last week, I went shopping with some of my lovely ladies. I spent a good amount of time looking at accessories and jewelery - which is one of my absolute favourite things. I put together this little set below to highlight the different trends I noticed while shopping. There seems to be a contrast in trends this season. I saw lots of earthy, light, neutral tones (natural feathers, gold, pearls) and then lots of very bright colourful pieces as well (peacock feathers, bright beads).
I think I am definitely a more bright and colourful person when it comes to my clothing - neutrals make me look washed out - except of course the always flattering go-to black which I will always have the most enduring and passionate love affair. When it comes to jewelery, however, I am usually drawn to the shiny and earthy with light splashes of colour.
My favourite from this series has got to be the Alexander McQueen skull necklace. I love this kind of pendant and I have always had a huge love of skulls. I also adore all the feathers. Simply gorgeous.

The next day, I picked up some things from each of the two categories: I got a set of three different colours of plastic crystal earrings ($8 from Aldo Accessories) and a beautiful gold peacock pendant necklace with jewel coloured stones in the tail ($15 from Aldo Accessories). I have become obsessed by this necklace. I want to wear it at all times. It hangs low and it looks good with every solid colour I own. I wore it four out of five days this week. I probably need to put it aside for a bit. I will try.
Here it is: Isn`t it beautiful?

P.S. my obsession with peacocks is slightly dirty sounding, isn't it?
