Out with the new and in with the old!

- June 2, 2010 -

Whenever my wardrobe seems to be getting tired, or I just need a bit of personality added to my everyday skinny jeans and ribbed tank, I go for my collection of chunky, bright and playful vintage jewelry to spice things up. I have always loved vintage jewelry for it’s insanely bold colors, it’s unique personality and it’s ability to completely enhance any old outfit. And since it’s vintage, I can feel good about the price as well as the recycled life that it has lead. You can find vintage anywhere from flea markets and thrift stores to high end estate jewelry dealers. I personally love scouring the amazing flea markets in LA for my more casual vintage jewelry, but have also found amazing higher end treasures in some of the best vintage clothing shops in southern CA. In fact, I even found and wore vintage (Chanel) earrings for my wedding (I got the gorgeous gems at The Paper Bag Princess in Beverly Hills)…I was obsessed with ensuring that my wedding day attire, dress included, could never be duplicated or worn by another…and the earrings were the perfect fit!
