Sleek and Beautiful Handbag By Salvatore Ferragamo

This handbag by Salvatore Ferragamo is simplicity at its best. I like the sleek design and the whole look of it. I use simplicity in my designs at times as well because I like simple but beautiful things. My Scandinavian background that is the reason I love simple and sleek lines as well as pure and simple designs. I was born and raised in Finland which is known for it’s pure nature, thousand lakes, technology and eco-friendly designs. Scandinavian designs are inspired by nature and water and many designs have a sleek look with modern twists. Marimekko is the most known designer from Finland.

 

My Latest Design Inspiration

This beautifully pictured model on Bottega Veneta‘s website featuring their new parfume is my latest design inspiration. The beauty of the picture and the model pictured inspires me to create elegant designs with soft color palette. I’m thinking of using freshwater pearls and some elegant stones such as blue topaz. The parfume’s inspirations come from the Venetian countryside. The model is very fitting to represent the new fragrance and the vision and scent of the fragrance. The bottle of the fragrance is beautiful itself. It’s simple yet elegant.

Holiday Looks By James Perse

I’m absolutely loving this look by James Perse’s new holiday look book. The sweater is my favorite. I really like the neutral tones of this outfit. The mini skirt looks very comfortable and is not too short. This outfit looks so comfortable and classy. I also like this long dress. It looks very comfortable and I like the color because it’s like a black canvas for accessories. Both would look great with gold vermeil earrings and perhaps a ring or a bracelet.

Jersey Fragrance By Chanel

My favorite beauty brand, Chanel, just released a new fragrance exclusive to Chanel.com. The fragrance is described as lavender infused with trails of vanilla and musk to make the fragrance more feminine. I wonder how this scent is. I’d love to try it. I’m a huge fan of Chanel fragrances and have used No5. and Chance for many years. I do like the scent of lavender but not sure if I’d like a fragrance with a lavender scent. Have you tried this scent or are you planning on trying it? What are your thoughts on Chanel fragrances?

 

 

Shoppers go wild for Heidi Klum’s New Wildlife QVC Jewelry Line

Heidi Klum’s Wildlife Jewelry collection for QVC features fashion jewelry that includes earrings, bracelets, rings and necklaces. Prices range from $32 to $113. The finishes are brass tone, black and gold tone. The pieces are cute and really wearable. One of the rings in the collection caught my eye because it’s similar to the ring part of my collection. I love these type of rings because they really stand out on your hands yet they are extremely comfortable to wear. I really like Heidi Klum and I’m glad to see her jewelry collection doing well. Heidi has such a great sense of style that you wouldn’t expect her jewelry line to reflect anything less.

Evil Eye Jewelry Trend

The evil eye jewelry trend has been embraced by many celebrities. When someone is wearing evil eye jewelry, it’s thought to ward off negativity and bring good luck. Evil eye is said to protect you from envy of your good fortune which is the reason the evil eye jewelry is very fitting to celebrities. Evil eye jewelry originated in Turkey and Greece where it’s part of the culture. Evil eye fashion and jewelry has been seen on the Real Housewives of Orange County and Real Housewives of New Jersey TV shows.

Calvin Klein Clothes

Calvin Klein brand is one of my favorite brands. The clothes are simple, elegant and versatile. When I worked as a sales executive and a manager, Calvin Klein was my go to store for clothes. Luckily the clothes store was close to my house. I used buy few pieces online as well. Calvin Klein has great deals at times. I love the neutral tones and clean lines that are common in Calvin Klein designs. I prefer to buy clothes that last from season to season or at least a few seasons and incorporate well with my current wardrobe. Here are some looks for fall from Calvin Klein.
