Fab Finds: Fenton necklaces

I love costume jewelry.  In fact the only “real” piece of jewelry I own and wear is the engagement ring on my left hand and sometimes the Mikimoto ring my husband bought as a souvenir on our trip to Japan.  I’m a fan of statement jewelry and recently, I’ve fallen in love with Fenton.  Check out these fab finds!

This tribal-inspired piece sort of reminds me of the necklace I wore here.  I want this and all of the below!

A more classic – looking option is this Chanel-inspired chain-link and pearl piece with lots of edge.  You know how I love anything reminiscent of Chanel!

This multi-pearl, chain, and gem necklace would work perfectly into my wardrobe.

This Fenton-designed necklace can by found at JCrew.  So feminine and pretty, right? Michelle Obama thought so,..

Fenton is simply fabulous, isn’t it?

InStyle’s Fashion Game: Instant Stylist

You know how lazy parents sit their rowdy kids in front of the TV and use Disney movies as a babysitting device?  I use the same technique with my husband.  I sit him in front of the computer and let him play his PC videogames and he’s as happy as a kid watching Harry Potter for the first time.  Right now my cute baby is enthralled with his new Batman game.  I find him so adorable -his giant headphones wrapped around his head, pajama back facing me, monitor showing how he’s saving the world.

With hubby out of the way, I get the “me” time I need.  That means I get full control of the remote and get to catch up on all my DVR-ed shows.  I’m a little back-logged and have to catch up on Fashion Hunters,  Secrets of  a Stylist, My Fair Wedding, Gossip Girl, The Nate Berkus Show and Dina’s Party.  While this fabulousity plays in the background, I blog my heart away, catch up on other bloggers’ and fashion newsletter’s posts and respond to personal emails.  Then if I still haven’t had enough, I Facebook to see what all my friends are up to. All the while, my hubby is wearing a cape in his little fantasy world.

I never got into video games.   I thought Donkey Kong  was dopey and  Q-bert and Pac Man more frustrating than fun once you got past a certain stage.  Then Tetris came along and the strategy side of the game intrigued me until I felt my eyes going blind.  The games failed to turn  me into an addict.  But now, all that may have changed.  I think I may have finally found a videogame suited for a girly girl like me!

It’s a styling game called, “instant stylist” where you help to accessorize an InStyle magazine outfit by dragging and dropping items from the right and watching your score change accordingly.  I blissfully played and wondered if I could ever get bored of this.  haha I think InStyle made this game for me!   Though I didn’t agree with all their final answers, I enjoyed the challenges and laughed to myself thinking how different this was from Batman.  Try it out and tell me what you think!
