    I have a few of her Charger inspired pieces so I wanted to share this super cute behind the scenes video from her latest shoot in case you missed any of my previous posts. Her pieces truly are one of a kind, check them out!

    I loveee funky/GLAM jewelry so Belina is one of my favorite go-to accessory brands. If you follow my blog, you probably remember me talking about this brand because I featured this super cute, and yes named after muah, “Amanda” necklace on here before. I just got a handful of new items from them so I wanted to share a sneak peak at some of the cute new earrings I just got. I also will be hosting a giveaway soon so check back soon for more info on that.

    For now, here is a peak at new earrings, so cute! I would describe these as gunmetal, over-sized, blinged out tear drop gem earrings. They are about the size of your eye so lots of sparkle is guaranteed. I plan on wearing these with either an up-do or a side-do considering they will be a major focal point of whatever I wear them with.

    If you want to check out their jewelry now, perhaps scope out some items you’d like to win… check out their website OR Facebook page!

    Those of you as obsessed with Bebe as I am probably remember this outfit from their Holiday catalog a few years back… Several years later, I’m still obsessed and probably always will be. The coat, the hair, the pink tights, the headband, and most importantly the BOOTS.

    Good news for anyone else loving this because I found the perfect boots to re-create this look. Check out these super cute black leather ankle boots by Naughty Monkey, they look pretty similar to the ones in the picture, and the front flap on the boots is adjustable to resemble the picture even more.

    I can’t wait for Holiday parties, we all know who’s gonna be the cutest ;)  So 2 critical items to add to your 2012 Holiday Shopping list…

    1. Want To ankle boots by Naughty Monkey &

    2. Hot pink tights $8.00

    Naughty Monkey “Want To” Ankle Boots $89.99

    Everyone knows I love football, it’s pretty much the only sport I will watch (Ok and soccer too… Ok and maybeee baseball and basketball, but only for a little bit).  Living in San Diego, my team is of course the never so reliable San Diego Chargers. I’m not sure why I’m still a fan considering every year they fail us in the Playoffs, but just like a bad ex boyfriend, I always seem to go back for more thinking this year, maybe it’ll be different. Anyway, I am back! Ready for another season and what better way to prep than to deck myself out in some fabulous, rhinestone, color coordinated Charger gear?

    How cute are these Jovan Jane NFL accessories! I want them allllllll. And the best part is?

    Check out these new name necklaces I just received in the mail. Say my name, say my name… can’t leave home without ‘em. The gold and black one is super chunky but fun, and the silver one is the exact opposite, delicate but perfect for everyday wearing.

    I found both on Etsy.com, and both stores have so many cute items! P I will talk about both separately…

    1. Sugarandvicedesigns.com- The gold mirrored necklace, backed with black plastic, is from the UK. You might be skeptical to order from UK but I had no problems and shipping was only 4 bucks!

    They have tonsssss of other styles, Barbie necklaces and other fun chunky, cute shapes. Flowers, hearts, flamingos, tons to choose from. You can also spell out anything you want and choose your color! It was a toss up between pink mirror and gold, but I went with gold to get more use.

    Lately I have been loveee lovin’ purple polishes. Pink gets boring for a split second, so purple makes a great substitute when I pink myself out. This week’s pretty purple polish is by Rimmel London, and is enriched with micro-sized minerals that fill in imperfections on the nail surface, creating a smooth and super glossy finish for up to 10 days! I of course had to put it to the test because I really can’t stand when nail polishes chip… I can’t wait to see it’s hold up.

    Day 4 and no chips yet!

    How cute & shiny is this color? Love!
