Picture 56When it comes to name necklaces, it’s hard to escape the pidgeon-holed image of a street confident Carrie from Sex and the City or the favorite gift at a Sweet Sixteen party.  To me, name necklaces are fun, youthful and when worn with the right outfit, sexy.  Name necklaces continue to trend high on the celebrity fashion scene, and I personally got mine at mynamenecklace.com, which specializes in hand-made name necklaces.  Prices start at $24.95.

Nicole Richie’s House of Harlow

Filed under Fashion Tips & Finds

House of Harlow 1960, is scheduled to hit Kitson in early December, there will be a 35 piece collection ranging in prices from $50 to $250 and completely inspired by Nicole’s style.  The line uses leather, silk strings, chains, rivets, gold plated metals, peacock feathers mimicking the bohemian, gypsy, flower child style that she is known for.
“I’ve always felt that great accessories are essential in every complete outfit and I wanted to create a collection that was easy to mix and match; to either wear alone as an everyday piece, or stack on to make more of a statement,” Nicole said in a press release.  I personally love the pieces (especially the black leather ring) that Kitson is currently  taking orders for.  They’re bold, unique and extremely versatile.  I like the fact that she kept it simple and didn’t make them too ornate.
