Accessories

I meant to make this post for some time now (and this started as a fashion blog, remember?) but now's the ideal time. My hometown is the kingdom of boredom in the afternoon. Plus, I've had some photography accidents (my 50mm 1.8 canon ef lens is twisted and I don't understand how, and I broke a piece of the cover of new Polaroid 195. Beauutiful.) Now I play around with a zoom on my digital camera.

Anyway, after getting sidetracked, here's the thing. I haven't bought a single piece of clothing since Christmas. Unbelievable? I don't think so. For me it's unbelievable seeing women with plenty of shopping bags on their hands. I think that being able to get well dressed wearing a finite amount of clothes is a sign of intelligence. And here is where the real subject goes in.

Accessories. The way to update every look. I feel guilty for the amount of earrings I have, but I don't play favorites with them, I wear all of them, almost every day.
But to be honest, I kinda have a favorite.
The lego earring. I don't remember the name of the person who makes them right now (he's a nice chap with an unbelievable lego bow tie)but I love them. You might have seen them on the blog before. I could wear those anytime, anywhere, with anything.

Now I have another favorite amongst favorites. I usually don't wear anything on my hands but THIS made me change my mind.

It's a ring made by Olga Mergou with plasticided paper. It's quite big and everybody asks me if I made it myself. It's truly beautiful and one of a kind. I've bought more jewellery by Olga Mergou like the zipper earrings and I don't think I'll stop there.

Anyway that was a small post about my favorite jewel. If I had an advice to give you, it would be, buy less. Edit your choices. Love what you get.
