Ice Cold

Our last post was about fiery reds, on the other end of the spectrum we also have ice blue and silver, a classy and trendy pairing for the upcoming winter. Below, Blake Lively shows off the combination in two separate gowns that together are reminiscent of glittering ice crystals. Looking to add some frost to your tree? Below are some of our ice blue ornaments that would look great paired with large silver, glitter bulbs and translucent glass icicles.

Better off Red

US Weekly released their fall 2011 fashion style guide and the pages were painted red. From shoes to pants to skirts to dresses, jewelry and shorts, everything this season is better off red.

For added fire, try pairing different russet hues together: brick and cherry or burgandy and fuschia. Or accessorize with a big and bold ruby ring.

Featured below is one of our favorite reds, our NEW pewter red wine bottle filled with red glitter and an adorable wine glass charm. And you can get it here before anyone else.

All That's Gold, Glitters

The glitz is back as celebs step out onto the red carpet in golden dresses and gowns adorned with sequins, jewel and fringe for the maximum glam. Emma Roberts stepped out in a gold leather Miu Miu dress with a beaded collar. At her Horrible Bosses premiere, Jennifer Anniston went with a shimmering Valentino Couture dress with glitter and sequin details, and at her show in New Jersey, Taylor Swift dressed as a modern-day flapper with a fringed mini-dress. Each one of these golden girls shone from head to toe.But you don't have to be a celeb to shine. We've just released a new, matte gold filigree collection of ornaments. Each one is filled with Swarovski crystals in multiple cuts, shapes and sizes for all over sparkle. Available now, exclusively online.

Prints Charming

What's in for summer? Adorable floral prints on fun, flirty, ruffles skirts and flowing sun dresses. Celebs are stepping out in brightly colored patterns large and small, and on Leighton Meester's Stella McCartney skirt (below) paired together.

This is a great summer look because it's feminine and sweet and can be dressed up with heels or dressed down with sandals. I think we'll see this evolve as the seasons change, with prints and patterns in deeper shades and longer dresses with the same tiered fabrics and ruffles.

Bling it On

The stars sparkle on the red carpet in sequined gowns from rose gold to midnight blue. The gowns range from cocktail length to skirts with draping trains for all-over glitter. With dresses like these, the celebrities minimized their jewelry and carried small clutches because their gowns shine on their own.

This is a trend we're happy to see making headlines since we love to use glitter in our designs. Above is our silvertone glitter poodle with a rhinestone collarm, our silvertone diamond ring and one of our new glitter intitals with a silver glitter star charm. The beauty of glitter is it can add glamour and whimsy to a piece.

Appreciation for our Troops

Dave Rodgers, local RI native and former Navy SEAL, commented on the amount of skill and difficulty required in performing a successful mission such as this one. Although the names and identities of the highly secretive Navy SEAL team that killed Osama bin Laden will not be released, we can send them, and all of our troops serving overseas a hearty congratulations and thank you for their dedication and service.

Donations can be made to the Navy SEAL Foundation, benefitting U.S. Navy SEALs, SWCC, NSW Support Personnel, and their families.
