The key to a casual summer

DSC0646 DSC0649 DSC0647 DSC0652 DSC0643

July is always an interesting month. The weather hovers in the 80’s and 90’s while stores begin to stock fall merchandise designed to keep you warm when temperatures fall below 50 degrees. As my eyes grow accustomed to a fall color palette due to my line of work, I start looking for warm weather clothing in colors which blend well with fall. This dress caught my eye at Target. For only $29.99 I could have a lightweight summer dress in a beautiful fall hue. Love! I also knew right away it would be perfect to pair with Twisted Silver’s new “Key” necklace.

Twisted Silver’s new “Key” necklace is a long, casual necklace which features an authentic vintage skeleton key. I love long necklaces in the summer because they spice up warm weather, casual ensembles. Summer is always a difficult season for dressing since the weather is so hot! Twisted Silver’s new “Key” necklace is the ultimate key to adding style during the summer when wearing lightweight, warm weather clothing. Love!

Since we have fog in the morning here in the San Francisco Bay Area, this denim jacket topped off the casual look. Of course, the jacket comes off as soon as the fog burns off and temperatures soar past 80 degrees!

California casual and Twisted Silver’s new Eureka earrings

DSC0439 DSC0444 DSC0450 DSC0456

Temperatures have been in the mid to high 90’s this week, so of course clothing made from lightweight, summer fabrics are the most comfortable type of apparel. This dress from Calypso St Barth at Santana Row worked perfectly on a recent, 96 degree day! I decided to play off the golden sequin details on the dress with Twisted Silver’s new Eureka earrings.

Twisted Silver’s new “Eureka” earrings are the perfect staple for summer. The golden, antiqued brass hue combined with sparkling rhinestones make these earrings very California; and full of sparkling sunshine! Inspired by the California Mother Lode, Twisted Silver’s new “Eureka” earrings mimic a gold pan filled with sparkling nuggets found in a Gold Rush country stream. How perfect is that for a warm California day! Love it!

The “Eureka” earrings are also lightweight which makes them easy to wear from morning until night. The antiqued brass makes the “Eureka” earrings blend well with daytime attire while the sparkling rhinestones allow the earrings to be paired with a warm weather, evening ensemble.

Tweet Tweet! That is the fabulous new necklace from famed Bay Area jeweler Twisted Silver. This beautiful new necklace features a vintage charm circa 1980’s which evokes a “nature” vibe and instantly put a smile on my face.

The “Tweet” necklace from Twisted Silver is a perfect, golden brass pendant on a petite, 17″ bead chain which is easy to wear with almost any neckline this summer 2013 season. The “Tweet” necklace also blends well with the current trend towards smaller, more petite jewelry we saw in the fall/winter 2013/2014 runway collections around the globe. I also envision the “Tweet” necklace as the perfect way to spice up a turtleneck during the fall and winter seasons. Love this!

Twisted Silver’s “Tweet” necklace is priced at $40 and can be found online at Twisted-Silver.com. Use coupon code INSIDERS for a 15% discount. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous
