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

Silver and black with Rose Royce jeans

DSC0371 DSC0382 DSC0386 DSC0389

Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, we love denim. Let’s face it, San Francisco is the birthplace of the denim pant as know it! Therefore, anytime there is a fabulous new denim company in the world of jeans, I have to try them out!

Rose Royce jeans is a hot new denim company who designs unique styles with fabulous pockets! I love this! No-one wants boring pockets, denim pants are ALL about the pockets! And the fit too 

What makes Rose Royce unique is the fact that the pockets vary on each style of denim the company makes. This means you can buy multiple pairs of great-fitting jeans from the same brand and no two pairs will look alike! Love that!

In this article I am wearing the black Rose Royce “Royce” skinny jean. I love the flower buttons on the front and back, as well as the fit! The jeans offer a little bit of stretch which helps them fit perfectly and feel comfortable. Rose Royce fit true to size too; which makes ordering online easy.

Contest: Rose Royce has assembled together fourteen fashionable and fabulous bloggers in a style contest! The bloggers photos’ are on Rose Royce’s Facebook Page and the blogger who receives the most “likes” on their profile picture in the slideshow will win a prize! So now, I must do some shameful begging and ask you to pop over to the slideshow and cast your vote for who you think styled their Rose Royce jeans the best. The contest slideshow is online here. Thank you for your support and don’t forget to “like” Rose Royce on Facebook too!

Oceanic hues and a Hayden Hartnett handbag

DSC0265 DSC026901 DSC02681

Cobalt blue. It is a favorite hue of designers year after year, and for 2013 is appears to be more important than ever. While this vibrant hue was spotted all over the spring/summer 2013 runways, cobalt blue dominated the recent resort 2014 runways; proving this is the ultimate color to invest in right now.

Since cobalt blue is important this year, and into next year, it is a great color to have in your wardrobe. Cobalt blue not only offers a pop of color to neutral ensembles; the color is almost neutral itself, and blends well with almost any color group. This make it the perfect hue for a handbag since we all need a purse we can wear everyday which blends well with the majority of our wardrobes.

I am in love with my Hayden-Hartnett handbag. In addition to its’ vibrant, cobalt blue hue, the pockets are great for keeping my belongings where I can find them! The leather is soft and the handbag is comfortable to wear; not to mention lightweight!
